Finally feeling better (thank you full moon and hormones) and I had an amazing night with my kids. I didn't yell, I didn't get mean or angry. We went to a train show and to a farm and store for Halloween decorations. Then came home and decorated and had dinner. Bedtime went really well and I feel so proud of myself for the choices I made to be a better mother. I really can do this. I don't have to be a screamer anymore.

Hubby and I have a date today- our second one this year. I think we are doing a scavenger hunt in the city although I wouldn't mind a hike on a nearby trail either.

Here for another 24 hours of freedom. As I've been meeting new people through my kids school I sense the AV coming out trying to get me to drink again. I have to deal with hanging out with people in social situations where there is drinking and I'm not ready for that. Or maybe I am? I'm not sure. I guess I just miss the old days of socializing that way. I hope that feeling gets easier with time.
