Woo HOO

Ok finally some good news for a change.

First let me apologize to EVERYONE! For my behavior yesterday. It was uncalled for and will never happen again.
But I am taking the advice of some very special people and just let what did bother me just be water under the bridge.
Nothing can keep me from my home here.
To those who talked some sense into me. Thank you. Thats why I love this place so much. Like I have said before. It is my salvation.

Now to the good news.
I got my managment job!!! And I will still have time to do the mental hospital stay.
Court was cake and will be done and over with in Sept.
My grams is happy now Ican help pay these bills we have piling up.
Today was a great day.
I love all of you here and Thank you for keeping me grounded when I otherwise would have destroyed myself. Much love and respect!!!!

That's wonderful news Chiynita!

I am glad that you're taking care of yourself first and then dealing with the new job and I am glad that you feel better today!

We're all on this road together!

Chiy...

Happy to hear your good news about the job and court. See?

No offense taken..well..ouched! for a minute..those of us as you said

with "sober time" are human after all and have HUGE problems with the ol' ego.

Good luck..

But I'm still gonna be honest with ya.

Now, that's love.

Congrats on a the Job and a good day.

I'd have bet my last nickel (not saying much for me) that you would be back today, apologizin' an stuff. Glad I would have won the bet. Following your posts is literally like riding a roller coaster. I can only IMAGINE what it must be like for you, actually living/thinking like you have been at least since I've been here. You may actually have a touch of the bi-polar thing going on right now (NOT that I'm a doctor!), hopefully some clean time will be the solution, but fortunately, you're gonna go get properly checked out here real soon, and that makes me happy.

Welcome back...

NOW that being said ...

YOUR PLAN FOR TOMORROW? Its all nailed down, pops involved, there ain't gonna be ANY mishaps, RIIIIGGHHHTTT???

Hi Chiy,

You shared great news...

Try to have back up plans for the bad days...What will you do? How will you cope? I have plans to make meetings everyday, I do anyway but on those bad days I go to two meetings. You can pick up the phone and call someone, and of course you can always come here..

Thinking of you...

Yea living with me is a task in its self. Probably why I have been single for 3 years.
Not really bi polar..Just too many pills and coming off a 6 day coke binge after having 60 days and just a whole lot on my mind is all. Plus I have one hell of a temper. Not a good combination.
I was so sad all night. I felt so bad and it was like I lost a family member.
I love this place so much and it has helped me in more ways than any of you could ever imagine.
Yep Big HHH daddy is coming with me. Talked to the dopeboy today. He is fine with it. I let him know my dad would be with me. He says he has someone else to get him another one anyway because he knows I am done with it. He was quite pleasant and told me he was glad to hear that I was getting out of the scene. Even said he thinks I dont belong in that atmosphere. So see. he isnt a bad guy. He just makes a living doing bad things.
Also I am going to take the plunge and try AA and just sit in the back somewhere and listen and keep my mouth shut.
Thank you all for being so forgiving. Much love to you all.

AA or NA, either one is great, and I'm glad to hear you're going. As I've told so many others, ITS JUST A SET OF ACTIONS TO TAKE WHICH ARE TOOLS TO RECOVERY. You don't have to become some Bible thumper or anything for it to work
