I’m sorry to hear this, it can be very hard on the family but it won’t be forever. Once she gets over the hump life can still be incredible.
I got clean and sober going on 19 years ago. I've seen a hell of a lot of people try and fail....and more than a few succeed. The hard part is.....well, everything. If someone you love is trying to stop drinking, or using drugs, then they can't be around other people who are. You and your friends will need to understand that. I was at least ten years clean before I felt ok enough to go eat a steak at a bar with my wife. Even now I don't associate with people who use drugs at all. If people start busting out the boose, I haul ass. My best friends are in recovery. She might not have to go to the extremes I did...but if she does, you gotta go there with her.
Maybe single, as age doesn't always matter.
Happy birthday. 60 is the metric conversion. May have to do some more maths to get the Kiwi equivalent. I get 5L per 100km in my car, is this a good thing or not?
Grandfather was a front line photographer in WWII. Went in to Italy in the battle of Anzio. He always said he didn't want us grandchildren going in the military, he had done enough and seen enough for all of us. Growing up I remember he always had to have his miller high life from morning to night. I remember my grandmother telling me that she prayed that he would stop drinking, so I never started. Seen it too many times on how hard it is on people and families. For him it was I would assume a way of coping with the things he had to do during his service. He did quit cold turkey and I can somewhat remember when he did. I think it was mainly for my grandmother that he did quit. Made it easier to help her with the problems she had with rheumatoid arthritis.
Happy Birthday Ed. Get some rest. You will need it working on the snafu Chevrolets
Well I've been in a thread for a few years with some...
Really good. She's a sipper.
Praying for your wife and your family. Have not dealt with that, but have seen others that had to. The advice you have received is sound. Experience is the best teacher. I know there are support groups like AA, she can come back from this. You're in this together.
They always tell us there is a shortage, you guys might be the cause. LolAge is how ya feel redline4, not how ya are. Hope it was a good one.
O.K. then, made it to the Thursday. Early start again and really hoping this is not going to be the new way to get overtime. We have officially run out of room to store our equipment here and that is a serious problem. Good thing they thought about that before buying all these new transformers.
Have a productive day all.
