I will be getting my nails and toes did up and taking my daughter with me. We have a wedding to go to tomorrow and I will have fun and enjoy myself and enjoy my time with my husband and daughter. I will for ever keep my son in prayers but I will continue to take care of me. Next weekend another busy Saturday for my sweet niece we will be celebrating her sweet 15. I will continue to keep the focus on me and attend as many meeting through me week. I know gods with myself and my son. You all have a great weekend.
you know, Gaby, I was just thinking another way to work program....it works great for me....and that is , yes, get on here an share MY stuff, but I also READ others stuff and I give them something.....i can't even measure what i get back in return...... its good u r taking care of you , that is a good start and meets are excellent and essential , but how about the steps?? slogans??? literature??? sponsor????? coming on here is good, but it would even be better to see u esh'ing others.....my doing that , i learn what others are thinking, how they handled something...this is an interdependent program where we all need each other....other wise program won't work if we dont inter share.......just thinking i would suggest this to you.....working this board, reading others and givng them esh is like a "mini meet" or a "mini step 4" for me.....and its totally FREE...............JUST saying.......take what u can use and leave the rest...........

I'm so happy you didn't fall apart. I remember so well when I would just fall apart and couldn't do a thing for myself. Then I discovered WHY?? WHY do I do this when I can't cure it, I can't control it and dang it I didn't cause it. I can relax and let go and let God take over for me.
Have a good time tomorrow and enjoy yourself knowing your son is safe and getting sober even if he doesn't want right now. Might just be something he needed to happen.
(((( hugs ))))
