That awkward moment when...
It is WAR!
It is everywhere here. Maybe I am just focused on how much it is prevalent because I am trying so hard to stay away from it. Hell they even have wine at the church! Good thing I am not a church person. Sweaty glasses...I am serious..Grocery store. DRIVE UP LIQUOR STORES...Drive up windows. I kid you not. What would you like? Rum and coke please and off you go with your to go cup. PURE INSANITY!!! Never seen anything like it.
I am seriously in Military Tactic Project Isolation Mode (I just made that up...Not a military woman)....I am happy here to so I hope some day I can go out again.
Hang TOUGH!

I guess he never drank the wine though as he might of realised it has a mind altering effect and I'm sure he would never of wanted that!
John 2:2-10
2 On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2 Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. 3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”
4 Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come.”
5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”
6 Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. 7 Jesus said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And He said to them, “Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast.” And they took it. 9 When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom. 10 And he said to him, “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”

I used to look at an aisle of liquor and see a party. After many years I saw "medicine". Now if I see an aisle of liquor I see trouble. I don't even know what kind of trouble, but I do know that if I drink a bunch of it, I will end up in some kind of trouble. Its a guarantee.
Not here Alaska. Used to be you couldn't buy alcohol on Sunday. I never understood that...because we were supposed to be praying and not drinking??? Crazy because people just stocked up on Saturday to cover no one open on Sunday. Now it is every place every day.

I tend not to leave the country when I go into hiding (my home is my sanctuary), but I wanted to share a strange and marvelous method to demonstrate that your MT-PIM is perfection.
WenRiver....It works for me. Not sure how healthy it is? Once again...I live in a small town. I pretty much just disappeared with no explanation to my "friends" that are ....when we REALLY look at it...Drinking buddies. NOW I am getting called a shut in. And really..I don't care. Sometimes I get upset by everything because they are bar people. Not friends. BUT I was the person that was ready to jump right in with them. So blind that 30 years have passed. Anyway...they will have to do it without me. I quietly...insanely...dropped out. WTF ever...we have to do what we have to do. Thanks for your support in your post. <3
tomsteve...I am trying to go to bed. I just have to say G'night. And your #8 post (finally I get they are all numbered) is so extreme for a recovering Catholic like me. WHOA...But you will go to heaven. I will go to purgatory I think...I think I read I have to burn there for a bit before I can move on. NO WONDER I AM SO SCREWED UP! Wtf...
