What can I say?
Permalink  

Hmm... I feel pretty good today.  I am struggling now with my mom.
She just got home on Tuesday(4/1/)  I really don't want her around
me right now but she is my mom and I love her.  She is also a
member of Alanon as I have mentioned before.
I just need to spend less time with her because when I am around
her I almost get a headache.
She was visiting relatives for 2 weeks and frankly I didn't miss her
that much.  Before this time, I was happy to have her home. But
last time she was gone longer.  Do you see what I mean?
I am constantly having to set boundaries with her and sometimes
she is whiny and doesn't get it!
Even so, I am doing OK.  I am beginning to really like my life again
and am not unhappy anymore.  I am a little anxious but not as
bad as before.  I am taking care of myself.
Take care everyone.  Always, Kathleen

((((((((((((Hoot)))))))))))))),

I would just say keep working on you. Your mom may not change but you will :)

I can see the program working in you.

Yours in recovery,
Mandy

thanks, I will do that--take care of me.  You are right, my mom
won't probably change much but I am getting over my frustrations.
