Oh I love that...thank you, especially the one you added, so if its okay I will add one myself.

I drank because I was alone and I was alone because I drank.

What a great post, including the additions. Every one of those rings clear as a bell! The relax/shakes one especially. The shaky am hands is the closest form of torture I've experienced...I never would have guessed when I was a kid there would come a day when I would be pist off at my own hands! :-0
