The Middle Of Day 354

THE UPS AND DOWNS, LORD KNOWS THERE HAVE BEEN MANY!!!!!!! TODAY STARTED OFF HARDER THAN MOST, IT WAS D DAY, HIS ( THAT BEING E'S) BAGS WERE PACKED, I THOUGHT OUR INTAKE COUPLES SESSION WAS AT 930 TO 1030.....IT WASNT UNTIL 2 TO 3, ONLY THOUGHT IN MY HEAD WAS LORD PLEASE LET HIM STAY LONG ENOUGH FOR US TO GET THAT 3RD PARTY IN HERE TO SAVE OUR RELATIONSHIP.....LAST NIGHT I CRIED MY LAST TEAR( OR SO I THOUGHT), TOLD HIM I LOVED HIM SO MUCH AND THAT IF BY MAKING HIM HAPPY WAS LETTING HIM GO THEN HE NEEDED TO DO WHAT WAS RIGHT FOR HIM (OHMYGOD EVEN NOW MY CHEST IS HURTTING I HAVE NEVER BEFORE SAID THOSE WORDS AND I PRAY I WILL NEVER HAVE TO SAY THEM AGAIN BUT I WILL AGAIN, BUT ONLY TO HIM BECAUSE HIS HAPPINESS MEANS THAT MUCH TO ME!)

i SAT THERE WATCHING HIM SLEEP AND THINKING HOW WAS I EVER BORN SO LUCKY AS TO HAVE A MAN LIKE THIS IN MY LIFE ONE WHO WILL ACCEPT ME, AS HE SAYS ( SO DOES THE BIBLE) FOR THE GOOD, BAD AND INDIFFERENCE....WHO SEEMS SO FLAWLESS YET I KNOW IS NOT.....TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TEACH HIM HOW TO LEAN INSTEAD OF TAKING THE WEIGHT OF T HE WORLD ON HIS SHOULDERS WHILE LEARNING HOW NOT TO LEAN ON HIM SO MUCH.....

IN MY LAST YEAR I HAVE LEARNED MANY THINGS ABOUT MYSELF BUT NONE AS PREVAILIENT AS THE LESSONS I HAVE LEARNED IN THESES LAST FEW SHORT WEEKS......

HUMBLNESS......WHEN I FINALLY WENT TO HIM AND SAID NO MORE I AM DONE LYING TO YOU AS WELL AS TO ME.....I LEARNED THE TRUE VALUE OF HUMBLE.......

LYING TO THE PERSON YOU LOVE TO SAVE THEM FROM PAIN IS ONLY USED TO PROTECT YOU....NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT UNTIL YESTERDAY.....BY THINKING I WAS KEEPING BAD ACTIONS FROM HIM I ALMOST LOST HIM WHEN CONFROUNTED I TRIED TO COVER THINGS UP AND HIDE THEM FROM HIM, ALLONG NEVER KNOWING HE HAD ALREADY KNOWN AND HE JUST WANTED THE TRUTH FROM ME.........SO I WAS ACTUALLY BEING THE SELF SERVING WENCH THAT HE ACCUSED ME OF THAT I TOOK SO DARN PERSONAL!

PATIENCE....THIS IS EASILY THE HARDEST LESSON I HAVE EVER LEARNED.....MEN NEED DISTANCE JUST LIKE WOMEN MORE THAN THAT!!!THAT EVERYTHING NEED NOT BE DONE ON PRINCESS PAMMS TIME......... TALK ABOUT A BLOW TO THE SELF ESTEEM....GOOD THINGS REALLY DO COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT.....and sometimes that means for more than one minute or even one day.......

THE VERY LITTLE THINGS COUNT SOMETIMES MORE THAN THE HUGE THINGS, WAKING UP WITH A SMILE RATHER THAN BITCHING OR WAKING UP ON THE RUN MAKES THINGS SO MUCH MORE BETTER ESPECIALLY WHEN WANTING TO MAKE YOUR SO/H/W/BF/GF HAPPY......

BY PUTTING THE HAPPINESS OF E AHEAD OF MY OWN I TRUELY DO REALIZE IT IS MY WAY OF SHOWING HIM I AM IN LOVE WITH HIM AND HE HAS REASON TO KEEP ON TREATING ME LIKE HIS QUEEN, MORE THAN THAT IT ENSURES MY OWN HAPPINESS.....


I HAVE BEEN ENTRUSTED WITH MANY LIFE LESSONS ALONG THE WAY BUT IN MY ALMOST ONE YEAR OF RECOVERY THE MOST IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES WERE MADE TODAY..... THE OTHER THING I HAVE LEARNED IS IT IS OK TO BE HAPPY AND NOT TO ALWAYS WAIT FOR THE SHOE TO DROP OR THE SILVER LINING TO BE LET OUT FROM UNDER ME......


ISNT IT GREAT TO BE ABLE TO FEEL??? I SOMETIMES MISS THE MIND NUMBING SENSATIONS OF NOT HAVING TO DEAL WITH REALITY BUT ISNT IT EASIER TO DO WRONG THAN RIGHT ANYWAYS?????

MANY OF YOU MAY NOT UNDERSTAND MY RAMBLINGS BUT MY SR FAMILY WILL AND THEY ARE THE ONES OUTSIDE OF MY E I HAVE TO GIVE THANKS FOR TODAY, BECAUSE WITHOUT YOU I WOULD OF NEVER MADE DAY 354!!!!


LOVE, SUPPORT AND HUGS!!!

Really proud of you Pamm. You've been through a lot of crap and your still here. That's a miracle.

It is great to feel, all though most days i still don't always like it being in early recovery. But it's definitely better then being numb all the time. I'm alive.

Things could be worse

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dee..... I probally am not going to say this right, if I don't, call it tough love from hopefully a new friend. I need to tell you about someone I know.
She is in her late 30's with no children, totally secluded doesn't go out because she hates socitey as a whole. She has Diabeties which are uncontroled, and was a pot head/ cokehead which she took with vicodin and methadone for the constant pain that she is in. She has Fibermyalgia, norapathy, and has had 6 of her lower spine bones fractures, she was stabbed 9 times in both of her lungs as well as two broken hips and a broken pelvic bone from her ex who was a crack head who was "trying" to help her. She goes to collage full time and it is on line because she is terrified of the world and people around her, she found out all love isn't good love. She sits in a chair most days and sometimes she has to use her cane or a wheel chair to get around.
She used to run track and was a cheerleader, she has been threw the ups and downs in this life yet she still struggles everyday. She recently had to move out of the home she has lived in for the last 2 years. She bought a home because the rent was too much and the teens in the area keep robbing her blind, also she started living her life with out the drugs.
She used to drink. Then she decided to quit that and move on with her life, ended up with cancer of the throat and was perscribed pot for medical reasons then methadone and now up to over 29 pills a day and 13 different shots just to control her body.
She has to move herself, she doesn't have any money, the teens she paid to help her move robbed her of all of her meds and everything else that wasn't nailed down, she wanted a drink again so badly. She went out to get some and actually bought it. Then she remembered she quit cold turkey because she wanted a better life without abuse, and since she didn't have her meds she went cold turkey there as well ( by that I mean the pot, methadon, vicodins and loratabs) and that she needed help.
She went to her computer and low and behold came across this site and your feed. Thank you Dee. Thank you for reminding me it is OK to have bad days. It is just how we handle them and How we chose to live our lives. I will be ever grateful for reading this post that you placed up. In case you hadn't realized that woman is me, and I got up this morning and I packed two more boxes over at the old house, my back is killing me and I could cry because of the pain(I took my extra strength excedrin) but I got them here to my new home, haven't unpacked them as of yet, but they are here.
I once staied down in Aussie land for a time, so I know that things are worse down there than in the United States as far as real estate I wish I could send my old home to you....I would in a heart beat( Do mobile homes float?)but alas I cannot. But you will be in my thoughts and prayers and everytime I pack up a box or deal with this moving crap I will think of you and know that it was your statements which have pulled me threw this VERY rough time. Be Blessed in all that you do and may YOUR Higher Power find you through this very rough time and transition of your life.

PS Thank You for allowing me to hope again and gain my faith back! AND THANK GOD FOR ANOTHER DAY OF MY SOBRITY!!!!! It has been 3years and 6 months and 12 days!




DEE I LOVE YOU THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS POST WILL ALWAYS REMIND ME I CAN HAVE GOOD AND BAD DAYS!



LOVE AND HUGS,
PAMM

This is said with love...stop trying to figure out what is going on with E. I KNOW he's important to you, but you know, darn well, we will never understand men and they won't understand us! The best we can do is take care of US and find some common ground.

Ya'll are together all the time...I, personally, need my space, even if it's just in the other room.

YOU have a one-year birthday coming up....way to go!!!!!

Hugs and prayers!
