What am I afraid of Hurricanes or Untreated Al-Anon's????


Hello my friends,

it's been a while since I've been able to visit - we all know how busy life can be - but I had a few moments & stopped by to say

Hey, what's going on?

Yes it is that lovely season Hurricane Season - good gravy can't it be November 30th yet?

We faired well thru Gustav - part of Louisiana did not - so lots of prayers for my fellow Louisianians. 

I did evacuate with my Mom, a daughter & three precious granddaughters.  AH stayed home with the dog.  4 days of time with people who I preceive to be untreated al-anons and irrational people tend to trigger some insanity in ME.

It has taken me some time and hard program work to regain a sense of balance and recovery back in my life.  Really had to stress those boundaries and I know that my Mother was upset by my actions, but I have to take care of me.

So as Ike is approaching the Gulf, with predictions of landfall for Louisiana, my thoughts really have drifted to would it really be that bad to just stay home this time??  Is a CAT 3 Hurricane worth being exposed to that much insanity?

I'm thinking I should probably go re-read my post from after Hurricane Rita huh?  Cause I sure did some whinny/complaining about life after the storm then huh?

So my friends, I post this so I can laugh at myself, to touch base with my friends I miss, and to let you know I'm still working on me One Day at a Time, One Hurricane at a Time - biggrinbiggrin

wishing you Serenity, Joy & Love,
Rita

Hey (((((((Ree-ree  biggrin))))))), I was just wondering yesterday where you'd been, glad to hear from you.

Wherever you decide to shelter, just make sure it's a place with lots of alanon meetings!

Amen to the meetings!!!!! We went to my brother's last time & there is a meeting about 5 miles from his house - didn't go, but I think if I do evacuate - it will become a priority this time!!!! idea

I  live with untreated dysfunctionals (I'm not even prepared to diagnose them anymore) and it is difficult. I sympathize.

Yea, alanons can seem untreated at moments like these--
just hang in there, Rita, God has plans for you regardless
of natural disaters!
I like your sense of humor--what would we do without it?
One hurricane at a time, very cute but sometimes devestating, I think!
I hope I am making sense--I am tired as usual. Sometimes the sun
comes up before I am ready to get up!
You enjoy life; I will!
Take care
OOPS did I call you Rita by mistake. were you talking about the hurricane?
I can get so confused at times!
