Whale watching

Today up at 4am with The Fuzz. Since she peed on everything a few days ago, I now wake up when I feel her moving around the bed. I was worried I would want to drink up here because of the constant drama, but instead I have just wanted to slap the snot out of a few people. I haven't done either. Today I am going to SEWARD on a whale watching trip with my 83 year old Mom who can hardly walk, an 80 year old who is the bossyist thing on earth, and a mid 70 year old who is sweet as pie. So me and the three ladies will travel down to SEWARD and get on a boat for four hours, then drive the 2 1/2 hours back to Anchorage. I don't fear I will drink. Some stress is a call to action, that is take care of my old ladies. And some stress causes the urge. I would probably hit the bottle at the end of this day because I know they will drive me crazy. But today is 100 days sober, so I will not drink this day. But I hope I don't lose my temper and say mean ****. I want them all to have a good time. Wish us safe travels and lots of whales. Hoping you all have a whale-of-a-day!

Have fun in Seward, Raider. I enjoyed Seward when there about ten years ago; stayed at a great, funky little B & B.

Congrats on 100 days; you absolutely rock. I think the name of that Rockin' Rabbit song to Rockin' Raider!!!!!

Enjoy your day, Raider. It looks like the Fuzz will be catching up on sleep.

What a fun day. At least you can spend time with the ladies. It's no longer about how good of a mom she is - it's how good of a daughter you are. That thought was extremely freeing to me.

Blessings to you and yours.

Raider - It is hard to believe the changes in you these last few months. It is truly inspiring. Keep it up!! It gives many of us hopes for our loved ones with this terrible disease.
