MAE cool people! I couldnt get on MWO last night as the site seemed to have crashed for a while. I crashed too - so tired from work, supporting daughter in her exam hell and trying to keep the house habitable. But my mood is buoyant and like you all, I am able to cope so much better being AF.
The last few days we have had a few themes - of accidents/illnesses, junk food and hubbys (partners).
Mick - hope the eye is on the mend as conjunctivitis is not fun - been there with kiddies in recent years.
Cinders - you take care of your finger too.
My injury? I cut myself on paper that was being photocopied :H:H workplace Health and Safety - quick!!
SF - each to their own with spirituality/religion but your sponsor (who I hope is now -ex) sounds dogmatic. You don't need this. Christianity is big big church as you know and I always thought one of the cool things about it is forgiveness (and not judgement). The latter is so Old Testament and judgmental IMO and is best left to the courts here on earth.
Det, Bear (and all the secret "naughty-food" lurkers) - I too have been naughty. :l First the licorice icecream and then last night I made an evil, calorie/fat/sugar ridden cake-slice- pretending it was healthy because it had nuts, seeds etc in it. We were not fooled. So I too am trying to avoid the crap food today.
My grumpy partner (guess you can call him a hubby since we have been living together for c nearly 20 years - laws are different here to the US) used to get mega-shitty when I was drinking AL and he used as a reason to criticise me about almost everything. And of course I reacted by drinking more. He was very passive-aggressive at times. When I quit last year I almost left him because I was so fed up with him putting everything down to my drinking and him refusing to take any responsibility for change - or having stayed in the relationship (which was great in many ways). Its not perfect now but somewhat less tense - his moods are still there and he sweeps things under the carpet (ie procrastinate).
Have run out of steam - but hi there to all others - Blondie, PPQP, Pauly (yes come ou1 :l) , Samstone, YahYah.
Must go - have a great Friday - sober weekend ahead.
