Slippery Slope of unhealthy behavior

I have been doing well lately. Separating D's choices from mine. Sticking to my boundaries and yada yada. Today I find myself after a particularly annoying round with my mother, feeling the need to control. My mind satrted wandering to how many has he had allready, is he REALLY at work, was he drunk last night, and on and on. All the while my heartrate is rising, I am getting cranky and feeling out of control. I begin debating leaving work early and seeing if hes drunk on the couch instead of at work where hes supposed to be.

WWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!!!

I am slammin on the brakes here folks. SLOW IT DOWN SISTER I had to tell myself. All of those things have no effect on what kind of I day I can have. Its like my mind gets on auto pilot to Codieville. Well, just for right now I am not going on that trip.
