Just an update for my online friends. My AH went into rehab last week,after losing his job.Got home on Wed.Had an appt w a halfway/recovery house on Thur.And he checked in today.Hes unsure of everything.But he said it felt like a huge burden was lifted off of him when he decided to go.This is a first for him.In 15 yrs Ive never seen him try this hard. Now Im not expecting miracles.I know it may not work.He might decide its too hard.Ill cross that bridge when I get there. I know Im capable of taking care of my children,and myself.I have a good job,a home , and an awsome support system.Today I feel very positive.Christmas is coming and I have everything done.I have an overdue vacation coming up,wich Ill spend at home w the kids. I still have some doubts, but today, is a good day....
Wonderful news... I will keep you and your husband in my thoughts and prayers. Take it slowly and concentrate on you for now. He has pleanty to do and think about.
Best of luck!
Take care of you!

WOOHOO! That is good news. I hope he sticks with it. Now's the time to keep the focus on you. Remember the dynamics of a sober relationship vs. an active one are very different. I cling to my program now more than ever. You can do this no matter what.
I am very impressed that you are done for the holidays. Would you come to my house please? Working retail this time of year is just too crazy. I'd pay someone to put the lights on my tree. It's the only thing I dread. Enjoy your vacation and the holidays. HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Love and blessings to you and your family.
Live strong, Karilynn & Pipers Claus

Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. He's taken the step to take care of himself - now you're doing the same. This is a lifelong program. It BEGINS with getting sober - but the work will lie ahead of him (and you). Take good care of yourself.
