halt


ok I would say it is my hormones but I don't have any...haha

You guys know I am recouping from knee surgery. It looks great I am walking unaided a bit. Still pretty easily tired.

anyway yesterday I was working on a rescue. Breaking two potted pigs out of hades in a horrible shelter in LA  Ca. Lots of planning donations coming in, renting a vehicle. etc. I got a headache.

these young boy pigs look like someone blew into their snouters and blew them up like a full balloon. horrible.

soooo anyway I forgot to do something, well fell asleep. So this morn I go to take care of the thing. on the way home I start sobbing...? said I miss my husband so much. What?? where did that come from. I just told ya I was no longer in love with him?? then remembered the halt thing. but minus the angry.

ok now after being outside in the neat hot sun, putting up yet another two feet on my fence so Sauveur the Great Pyr cannot climb out.Ate  a yummy portibelo mushroom vegie burger with fresh spinach, yummy tomato and fresh lemonade.Then putting on my new cute nightgown, and laying down with my Basset tavish and Happy with Sauvey and Bonniedog on their blankies......I no longer feel the miss the Ah thing. sooo

when is it really emotions for the AH? It could be I just need a sandwich!!!! hahahahahaha

Well I thought it was funny....(o: I mean it too. I relate to the Halt thing.

My change of eating all these months is finally really showing. My shorts fell off when I reached to pound a nail in to hang a plant....I am down two sizes in pants and one on top!!

Two, yes, two cute men smiled and looked at me coming out of the doc office! what a trip.Two others just started talking to me in the waiting room. was nice.

Ya know when I am driving thru all this farmland around here, listenun to crosby stills and Jackson brown, tom petty, the beatles... and on and on I think about how sad it is the AH is missing so much life. he no longer sees the blue sky, or colts running in a field or sees babies and older people smiling.

I feel so young and healthy and the man I was in love with all my life is well what is he? rotting away.

anyway the point I was making...geez uno what a blabber mouth I am, is is it ya miss your A or is it HALT and ya need a sandwich and a puppy??

hugs to you all,debilynbiggrinidea

Ok, so I have to say that I seriously relate to what you are saying about HALT and the sandwich bit. My AH was incarcerated for quit some time, and during the 1st few weeks I was missing him terribly, but after a while I didn't notice his absence. My sponsor called me one evening, and I was sobbing, saying I missed him horribly and blah, blah, blah...and she said "HALT". I was 2 out of 4...hungry and tired. I too learned to use that slogan and it worked miracles on me, I used to eat out of bordom or just because and now I only eat because I am truly hungry.
Anyhow, what I am getting at is thank you for reminding me of that.....I haven't used it in quit some time and it is time to pick that up and use it again!
Love in the program!
Charity

I don't miss the A one bit at all.  i don't wish him ill but I want nothing more to do with him at all.  I don't think that is going to change. He keeps calling and I keep on not answering I have nothing left to say. Said it all. Done it all nothing left.
