24Hour Recovery Connection Part 340
Leigh- lovely words, thank you.
Only 36 today- takes the edge of it being over 40.
The US govt..confuses me....a government can just close down. Yes I understand the workings of it...but what happens, say if a natural disaster hits? Does some sad faced govt employee- forced to be at their job with no pay send a terse note to god informing him of the unsuitability of such actions at this time? Perhaps the paperwork for continuing to have to exist were not filled out properly???
The heat- and watching city folk who cope with the extreme heat by drinking showed me again- booze often makes everything worse.

Cheeky mare how dare she!!!!!!
There can be quite a cliquey culture in the PTA and in a way I'm not surprised. Maybe it's because you do so much good for them she's panicking. Or maybe she's just thoughtless and unkind.....
Either way Kenton I really do think it's super essential to build in some you-time.
It's not at all self indulgent it's necessary. I look forward to finding out what delicious pastime takes your fancy!
Sorry I'm late today gang. Went over to Leeds to watch eldest play netball. They lost but that's fine she played well against a superb team. Love watching them rooting fur eachother it's great!
Then snoozed through a kids movie. I knew I would haha what an old lady!
Bit churned up about next week. Got a lot to do but it's fine. It's only work. I'm determined to stay calm and clear headed.
Lots of love to you all. 24 more please! xxx
Having the hardest time. My bf and brother in law (I live with both) came home with a big bottle of tequila. Things have been hard since he moved in after being released from jail. I have definitely been bratty and "bitchy" at times. I apologize for it constantly i feel like. Things are often uncomfortable.
Today after they had a few shots I tried say sorry again for being unkind last night and somehow it had the opposite effect. Half the bottle is gone. He questioned my sincerity then my bf said I hadn't apologized at all. I got defensive. And now my bf wants me to leave. I know he's drunk but he seems very serious despite it and it hurts and is scary since I have nowhere to go and live paycheck to paycheck.
We've been together 6 years but if sobriety is my #1 i just don't see me making it while my BIL lives with us in our 1000 ft home. I feel so alone listening to them play music videos and laugh loudly, something i would have been in the middle of a few weeks ago.
My heart feels like it's drowning. I will be laying in bed though my brain is screaming to get in the car and go to the store. I will get up tomorrow and go hiking with my friend without a hangover.
It's 10:19EST

I am sorry that things are so difficult for you and you are being strong and committed despite this. Well done.
I hope that you and your be can have a productive discussion when he is not drunk and/or hungover.
I hope that today is a better one for you.
How long is your BIL planning on staying with you?
I second that Suze!
