I'm starting a new thread because I didn't want to hijack Priscilla83's post (titled "setback").
I LOVED what a reply post said about alcoholism mowing down whatever is in its path!! LOVED IT!!! (Thanks for that, Bettina ;) I had this image in my head of long, beautiful green grass and an out-of-control rogue lawnmower bumping along as fast as it could go, not in straight lines or anything, just all over the place cutting up the grass! The image made me smile - and it's so true!
And a rouge mower being pushed by an alcoholic never, ever runs out of gas!! It's like the "Energizer Bunny"---it just keeps going and going and going.
Thanks, that totally made me smile. today was a roung day for me. Haven't heard from my boyfriend for 3 days now...not sure if he's ok, sober...nothing. I so needed to picture him as a mower. lol
