I am just posting to update now & then. I am not in any crisis I have to tell myself. If only my mom wasn't. From what I am getting, she is now AWOL. I have yet to hear from her. She hasn't called or I haven't gotten a call. I guess this affects me in 3 ways: I am grateful I am not her, I am saddened of she being missing & I know she will eventually be OK. If I continue to work the program, I will find results, I will find peace of mind, & I will never be in control of the situation. Only HP knows what is next. I have to completely rely on a HP that knows my every need. As many times I have said before, most of my needs are met. I guess I get what I want as well.
Sometimes you just have to roll w/ the punches. I have to just accept the fact that nothing changes if nothing changes. I am not perfect & that I will strive for progress. I cannot expect to have all the answers as I am totally a work in progress.
So, I wait & do what is in front of me. I am certain that something will happen if I keep my own house in order. I am happy & content to say that God is w/ me every night because He is up all night anyways.
Thanks for accepting me as I am. Not everyone will but at least I have support. I definitely need it.
Oh yeah, Sunday, I was given flowers for no reason except that I need them as I go on w/ my journey towards wellness.

Kathleen, what a strong and positive message. You have your Alanon tools in good working order and I can only hope to cope as well as nothing will ever be perfect, and there are constant ups and downs. I would settle for a nice , even middle. Good luck, right? Thanks so much for your share, Lyne

Great post Hoot. I like that process and it is one I can also use. I will go back to it for a time to be reminded on how it works. ((((Mahalo))))
