Mariah, Up, Dee and Freein: Thank you for your words....
A (true) story....
We have neighbors who live below us. She's 40, english a teacher, just your average expat teacher. He is Spanish, 40 something and a chef. They are pretty good people, well he is especially.
Last night I was out on the balcony having a smoke and he was outside below me. He had bandages on his head and face, so I asked him if he had been in a fight... He looked up and then she came out, with her thumb bandaged and her arm as well. It didn't look good!
They had gone and got pissed and then got into it with eachother.
They are having issues.
Visa's, money, IVF, etc......
Without the booze this would not have happened I reckon. So over the past few days I've been thinking I'm better, that all is well and that I can have a beer again... ( a beer he says)....
Dropped off all discipline...... and it nearly cost me.....
All it would take is one bad night and I'm back to square one.....
I'm not a violent person, but verbally can have a good go...!!
What a shame it would be to ruin everything that's been built over 14 months in a night.
OBO MUST KEEP HIS EYE ON THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know what will happen with them, but I have spoken with her about drinking and the problems it brings even if you don't think they're related...
stay tuned........................
