Starting Over
Well I almost had 30 days and the day before a Saturday, I drank at home, then went out (drove to a bar in my neighborhood....less than a mile away)...got very drunk and almost passed out on the way out of the bar. My boyfriend who also abuses alcohol was with me. He says that he tried to get the car keys away from me but that I insisted on driving. (He doesn't have a license anyway..dui/drunk in public related) I got almost to my driveway and got pulled over. Charges: Not maintaining lane, Open Container, DUI and no seatbelt. I went to jail and bonded out that morning. (I work for two attorneys who do traffic and criminal defense work)....the bondsman I called gave me a freebie but I was afraid he would tell my boss's so I went ahead and told them this past Tuesday when I returned to work. I feel AWFUL. I will post more later on that...but just grateful I didn't hurt anyone and that for now, I have my job.
I drank that night because I was upset with my daughter who is 18 and just last month moved back in with me. She took (stole) my car and lied about it and then she snuck some boy in her room at night. It was a horrible weekend starting with that Friday nite. Saturday during the day I tried to de-stress and remain positive, but she was so rude and disrespectful, that I finally told her to move out and then when she left the house...I got that feeling that I used to get when I was home alone and knew that I could "get away with drinking and that no one in my family would know".....I figured that since she was out of the house, I could drink and get some relief/release from the stress and disappointment. I planned to stay home and not go out...but once I start drinking anything can happen. I know it is my fault that I CHOSE to drink again. I am just explaining that my relationship with my daughter is a major trigger. A part of me wishes that she had not moved back in with me.
