He took the last of the vodka from the taper and dumped it in the driveway.
I felt, watching it, that I was in someone else's movie.
I'm in shock in a way, but very very happy I finally have an alcohol-free home at long last.
We've been getting along much better--funny how the positions are reversed--I was the drinker, he the caretaker, then the switch.
Now we can both just be partners again--that's the hope, anyway.
Love Love Love the picture sleepie

Hey Everybody!
I'm okay. Husband threw away 45 days of sobriety so I told him he couldn't spend the night here and to call me when he is sober. I'm nervous what will happen to him on the street but I'm relieved he isn't here. Tired of the stressful roller coaster. Wish I could have left my response as just "OK" but I guess you guys let me feel like I don't have to hold back. You all are so open and honest and that helps me get out of my shell. In a way, I may be able to sleep knowing I don't have to wake up at 5am to sneak him out of the house. I will try to pretend that he is safe somewhere.

Alyece, always interesting to ride your train.
Lenina, thanks for the star update -- you made me a believer.
Hey pufs.
I LOVE the cow picture Sleeps.
Speaking of the picture, Cow, I got a nice story. My older daughter plays bass in the University orchestra. Last night they played Mahler's 5th, which I love, and before the music the announcer explain its all about life and death, love and hate, all those contrasts that make life difficult and interesting.
I not sure about that but when I am listening (and they played good and its not easy music) I close my eyes and all I can think of is Sleeps pictures of Cow frolicking in her pasture -- frolicking very happily BTW.
I got my hopes set on that being the picture for us in 2017 instead of scary dreams.
What ya think??

Hi all. That is great news Hawk! I'm loving your Cow pics Sleeps. Sending a hug to Puffy.
I just watched this great video on the brain's ability to heal. "build the brain you want"

I'm still off the smokes but having a really rough go of it. I'm anger squared right now and don't know if it's from the nicotine (24 days)or menopause or the PMS. I think I frightened my family last night. I just can't calm down! I will survive this.

Puff, I supports you actions. I so glad for you to come out you shell and feel comfortable here. Only shells in you life should be stuff in you cutie pie cheeks. 
You go on with you bad nicotine-free self, SRun. I total got to build-a-brain so I check that out. ...I have feeling it gonna be harder than build-a-bear.
Nice cows, Little Dove. I mean, well, let face it, they not surpass my adorability, but still good cows.
Good to see you Drops, yes, for me 2017 must be my first fully sober year. It might no be pretty, but it certainly can no be worse. I very lucky to have Sleepies' wonderful pictures to aspire to.
Hi everybody! You know I really ..okay.. grateful (There I said it! Not make a big deal out of it!) for our little salon here. It good company during dark days, and not so dark days too.
~Moo Mwah and Hugs to Y'all

So I saw something great -- in Russia a lady has created an old folks home/hospice for cows. She says they make milk for us all they lives we gotta take care of them -- she got 22 and adding more soon.
So good to know there is someplace to move the pasture when the time comes, but Russia be cold -- maybe we gotta do the same in my place in Florida or somewhere else warm. I am not doing the blow dry thing though.
