Live and learn... hopefully...

Along with the stress of a 13 hour drive home are several other things that are pressing on me at the moment; my in-laws will be arriving later today to stay for two nights, my step daughters and husband are performing at my husbands church, and I have drank alcohol six out of the last eight evenings. Now that I am drinking again, (not something I plan to continue) it is easy to see the pattern of continuing. At first I drank to handle a situation, next I drank because my husband was drinking, now I desire a drink to numb the ugly thoughts that will only increase because of the drinking. wow, alcohol sucks. I see Doc in three days. I will handle things till then.
