My journey

[Nessa]

Yeah. Im drinking again

Just tonight, but still.

It is so hard to go through life sober or without some other form of coping mechanism

[Nessa]

Will be praying for you xxoo

So why are you hitting the bottle pouring yourself scotch?

Because my wife is returning from the south tomorow. No...that's an excuse! Even so, she's been gone since Monday and my dog really misses her...

I poured Lagavulin 16 because it is very unusual. At $80US a bottle, it is a treat. That's the reason, it's my treat! I had to make my own meals and wash my own dishes all week long and I deserve a treat! (I even did the laundry this morning!)

Yeah. Im drinking again

Just tonight, but still.

OK, Storied Lady...if you drink more than you should, you may want to consider doing what I do: buy very expensive liquor. At $80 per 26oz (750ml) bottle, a 2oz drink costs me just over $13US. Thriftyness may prevent you from overdoing it until you can control the drinking in a more appropriate way. I also own a $160 bottle of Bowmore 18 but I'm too stingy to drink it...)

Don't give up, but don't beat yourself over the head with this either.

Annette,

I do not have to say you any words.
I believe you know what I feel toward you.

Jesus came here and with whom he was interacting mostly?
Prostitutes, maybe people who drank a lot.
He came to save them, because he loves them.
Jesus does not love because of our merit.
He loves us in spite of what we do.

[Nessa]

Really lovely words, 1lover
Have been thinking about you and wondering how you are doing?

you know, very hard days
but you know, God is here to provide strength

but let us not make this thread about me

[Storyteller]

but let us not make this thread about me

And why not?
We want to read about how you are doing xxx

[1over137]

it is hard
nothing easy expected, right?

many days I go through trials
some days esspecialy not easy
and some days even harder due to reactions of some family members, the way how communicate
even right now, emails between family members
why some poeple make assumptions and create their theories based on them while being far away from truth?
why some people do not listen to each other more?

ah

[Nessa]

Lyrics: Bang Bang
Nancy Sinatra

I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down

Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang

Now he's gone, I don't know why
And 'till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

I would love to know the reason this song is so meaningful to you

[Storyteller]

I absolutely adore my husband, always have, always will.
He is stubborn, bossy, fussy, particular, organised. Its his way or the wrong way.
I am the complete oppisite.

When we met, he was in charge, took the lead. I just kinda tagged along.
I wasnt pretty enough, smart enough, or his type st all but we got on so, so well.
I was 25 when we met. Ive grown up with him.

We used to fight, he would put me down, make me feel so insecure and worthless, now I know it was self defence. Do it to me before I do it to him.
Its still a work in progress but we do at least see it.

Sometimes honesty isnt the best policy. Sometimes words do so much damage.

I know he loves me.
I know I have hurt him terribly.
I know he hurts too.
I know with God, we can work through this.

We are each others challenge.
