Dear Cowgal...
When the holidays are done, it'll be the same old...same old... for all of us (problem drinkers or not) but for now, extra time off work and extra time to think about whatever....usually family and relationships, or maybe not...being there and seeing this one, or that one that you haven't seen for God knows how long. Things don't drop into our laps. They happen because we make them happen; good or bad. I'll stand up and fight with anything if I know that I'm right, but if I'm wrong, I'll take whatever I deserve. So I don't want to be wrong ![]() Make good things happen (like waking up early, sober and guilt free tomorrow, or whenever something nice pops into your head; smile and remember it) and then set yourself on your own journey. Other people have theirs, I have mine and all I can do is my best.

Thank you Popeye,
Things happen because we make them happen. I let things, expectations, stuff kind of pull me down yesterday. Today I got up, ran 5 miles in 15 degrees..brrrr...drank my coffee and am ready to spend some quality time with my sons. Can't tell you how many days after Christmas I've spent so hung over I couldn't get out of bed. I made that happen but today my journey's going in a different direction. Hey, you are getting close to a year!! Shelley Happy Boxing Day or is it Boxers Day |
