Thanx guys Actually my boys, or most of my family don't even know I am here LoL. Keeping it that way. I don't need nor want the added stress of all the questions. Would just make me sadder.

Going to Mom's for the night, feel tears coming on :-( So no net there, if I feel brave enough I might be able to check check in later. But just in case, night all.

August... The 2 previous days to today I spent either crying holding back tears or with that lump in the back of my throat!!! So I know the feeling. Today I stopped fighting those feelings and something peaceful came over me. Just let it go sometimes....trying to hold it all together makes you feel worse the just letting it all out.

Today I am happy again or at least positive and hopeful of my future. I hope you can get there too. SMILE

If you need SR support and you have internet on your phone, shoot me a pm, I will give you a quick lesson on tethering (basically using your cell as a modem).
Feeling teary and down is normal in early sobriety, accept it and know that it will get better.

I know tethering, no net on my old cell phone. I braved it cause I thought I was gonna fill out some forms. But I can't until I speak to someone. *sigh* today has been a nightmare again lol The longer I am in this town, the more nightmares pop up. LoL
