My Art School is a repurposed Mental Asylum building. I remember when we drove past it when I was a kid, there was a high,thick stone fence with broken glass cemented on the top. Reclaimed grounds see new townhouses selling for 400k. It is just outside the CBD.
- I started my psych nurse training there, but didn't finish it...
-I did 2 x 5 day detoxes there....
-I am an arts student in the same place,as a mechanism to learn about and to express myself....

And because of your relationship with alcohol and all it took from you, you are now a wonderful artist, honing his craft and making amazing creations that all of us can relate to. ❤️

Did you have your catchup with your boys, PJ? Is everything progressing OK? Hoping it was healing/positive…or at least began that process.
Leshar and Croutie, thinking of you both, if you are out there, following the thread. You are missed and thought of.
Love to you all. Grateful for the days we chose to get sober.xx

Hi Everyone,
I read frequently; obviously don’t post often.
It has been a very difficult time for me and many of you as well, I suspect.
Just went through the depression and sadness of the anniversary of the loss of my Son to cancer. I think each year it might get easier, but alas no.
One of the reasons I don’t post is because I really can’t bring much of anything positive to the table, and I really don’t want to always be a Debbie Downer here.
Life without my DH isn’t easy but I’m certainly better off than I was a year ago. My sweet pups are so much company to me; I am so glad we rescued them....they are my rescuers.
I read about your lives and am happy for your successes, and sad when you are sad. You all are so special to me. You helped me through some very hard times...for that I am so grateful.
Well, I guess that’s it for now. Please stay safe everyone.
Thank you to those who ask about me. (You know who you are❤️)
Much love to you all,
Croutie
