I've been thinking about you the last few days. Funny isn't it how sometimes we sense things?
I like to think of us as a family here and I hope you can find a way to reach out for you dearest Weav.
I'll try one if those little prayers for you too tonight . You've been a wonderful support to me so many times I hope you feel some lobe in return my friend xxx
She has for me, too! Love you girls!

It's stunningly good sometimes. And then I just want to dance and sing, and do sometimes.

But it looks like I'm achingly shy and afraid of most everything and everyone. I have to get a job and go out into the world and I'm just gonna get squashed, I think.

I don't want to be me.

Why couldn't I be a bit more assertive and a go-getter. Maybe one of the things drink did for me was Dutch Courage.

I think I might be weird. Oh no. This is terrible for a person who spent so many years trying to fit in.

Anyway, I'd better stop with the self-pity.

Important things need to get prayed for, like Erfra's grandson. I will put your family in my prayers tonight. I think it might help with all of us on your side Erfra. I know it will help.

Oh, and also 1newcreation's arthritis just popped into my head. I'll pray for that too.

Get out of self, that's what I'm trying to do. I had an attack of Self.




You are just becoming you my sweet one. You are already beautiful too.

Hi Weev- I think all of us drank to feel different in one way or another. The beauty of our brains is that we can literally reinvent ourselves and there is always opportunity for change. Fear can be overcome- it’s been proven time and time again that we absolutely can conquer our fears. It may not happen overnight- it may take teeny tiny baby steps to get there, but please don’t ever think that you are stuck or that you cannot be the person you long to be.
I totally get the fear of work and getting a job. I have that fear too. But I also think back to a time when I succeeded at my job and that gives me hope. When was the last time you enjoyed working and were good at what you did? What would bring you joy and fulfill you at this point?

We all love you for who you are- self doubts and all. And 8 months is an amazing success. If you can do this you can do ANYTHING my dear.

8:17 and tucked into bed about to go through my new library books. I don’t think there is anything more exciting than a bag of free books! I am so easily pleased by the little things in life. It’s also a quick cure for the itch to spend money. I come out with a bag full of stuff and haven’t paid a dime! Gotta love it.

Here for 24 more. Goodnight sober friend.
