Hi everyone!
Happy Saturday! Got a lot done today. Woke up stiff as a board, so I am thinking today might be a good day to take it easy. I am not going to risk throwing out my back and then suffer worse. We moved some heavy boxes yesterday in a very small storage area, and today are feeling that.
Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Glad you're here, glad you're posting! I wish I had the perfect words to say but, I don't. Trust is a tricky thing, it takes time to build, but can be lost in a second. One of the most difficult lessons I'm learning is to allow others to be others. When we "let go" and allow them to be themselves, they will show us who they are, and with this clear view we can make the choices that are best for us concerning their place in our lives.
This was his ****** decision, don't let his choices affect yours negatively. Don't abuse yourself. I know from what you've shared in your posts that the relationship has been a kind of lingering thing that "sooner or later you will have to address". I don't know any specific dynamics of your life but I do know life has a way of pushing us towards the things we're pushing off. This may just be life's invitation to address some underlying issues in your relationship that have been sabotaging you, not just in your recovery but your self worth, as well.
We're here for you and continue to post and rant or whatever will help you to get you through this sober.....no good life decisions come from a bottle.

Mayflies...been awesome catching up after many bad weeks of bad decisions on my part. After an especially wretched binge yesterday, I've been on SR all day, tending a thread I started on the Newcomers page, and wanted to end my sober day here at "home group!" Especially happy to hear from Lonely Wombat. Big fat hug for Jo, too...love you guys

Home from the wedding! Made it through safe and sound! The hubs and I bailed early before the alcohol really got flowing. In fact, my biggest worry was not tearing up during the exchanging of vows. Tears + mascara=me looking like Alice Cooper in wedding photos for....well forever.
