Feeling the urge to post because I'm definitely still celebrating in the pity party arena.

I'm grateful for:

-amazing parents. They truly are sent from Heaven.
-an equally fabulous sister. We are opposites, but we have each others' backs.
-my beautiful, sweet, golden little boy. 5 and bright. He is the best thing I've ever done.

That is all I have right now. More will come. I know I have more in me.

My youngest son died of a drug overdose on Apr. 26, 2016 leaving his two children ages 10 and 15.

I am grateful because my oldest son is stepping up to be a father figure to them. He always wanted children and never had any of us own. He took my grandson to a basketball game all on his own. I didn't even know he had called him and arranged it. Tomorrow we are all going bowling.

I loved my youngest son who died soooo much. He was a great dad. I am so proud of my oldest now for taking care of his children.

I am grateful that I found the motivation, strength and commitment to truly want to stop drinking for good. In the past, I did not have the resolve I have today. I'm halfway through Allen Carr's book, "Stop drinking now". For many months now, I have been experiencing extreme depression if I drank too much. This is it; no more wine.
