2010


I am going to really work at this new year to be the best that I can make it. It is going to be a year of taking care of myself, finding my own happiness within and diving more into Alanon then I ever have. I am going to do whatever I have to do to stay out of the drama of my A son and just have hope without any expectations that he will choose recovery one day. If he doesn't than I will work my program and try to accept whatever happens. I can no longer be in a panic about what he does because as I have heard many times on these boards they will surely take you right down with them. I have allowed that to happn over this Christmas holiday and I feel bad about that.....but now a new year is about to begin. I want to take care of my health and beging to move my body more. I want to have unfinished projects in my house done. If my husband will not meet my needs in getting things completed than I will hire someone who will.

I AM DONE PUTTING UP WITH EVERYONE ELSE'S CRAP....THIS IS GOING TO BE MY YEAR!!!!!!

Great Resolutions Gail  smile

They are possible one day at a time. 

I really liked the fact that if Hubby is not going to finish a project then you are willing to hire someone to do it.  That really, really worked for me.  No resentments and the job was done quickly, peacefully and well. 

I pray that  2010 is a Healthy and Peaceful  for you and your family.

Good for you! 

I'm a mother of an AS also, I understand your stress, the panic that is off the charts.

I want to enjoy my life again, I don't want to be afraid anymore, waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat.

May our HP grant us the rest and peace that we need, and that our son's will find their way, but we must accept that the path is up to them.

(((((((Hugs)))))))))
