update
 
i havent been around in a while. i actually felt that being here too much was hindering me. i cant explain it. but through some deep soul searching and me wavering up and down and there being more down in that wavering, i have found myself in a 12 step program suited for me. i could probably be in at least 4 different ones, but i am in the one that will hopefully get me out of the chains i have put around me my whole life.

as for my gf. she got her 90 day chip last week. i went down to see her and she is doing amazingly well. she has her ups and downs, has fallen from a pink cloud but is not wavering on her commitment to the program. i feel i witnessed a miracle. she is committed to fixing herself as i am for me. we acknowledge that we love each other in a deep and spiritual way, but that we both have things to fix and with the grace of god things will work out.

Hallelujah!

I'm glad hanging out here was a hindrance. It kept you from actually doing anything ;)

Hi was wondering where you were Steve, I am glad things are better and that you have found a program that fits you.

(((Steve))) - I'm so glad to hear that you are taking care of YOU, and she is taking care of HER.

I still slip and slide into codie-land, but I come here, get re-grounded and it's a good thing.

Hugs and prayers,

Amy
