I’ve been through this before and was clean & sober for 10+ years. Then for some reason that I cannot place my finger on, I started drinking beer again. The usual, 2 beers/day just enough to take the edge off. It probably didn’t help that I worked nights for 5 years before slipping off the wagon. What triggered me to slip I do not know. Maybe it was from being alone so much. While I was sleeping my friends were at work.

THEN, I met this beautiful lady that lived 3 hours south of me. I told her up front that I drink 2 beer/day. She said that she didn’t care and I could  drink a 6 pack as long as I never hit or yelled at her. When we met in March 2016 it was like the 4th of July-sparks everywhere. We talked for over an hour and I turned to her and said ‘This is a God thing isn’t it?’ She looked deep into my eyes and smiled and said ‘I was thinking the same thing.’ See we had all the same likes except for 2 things. I don’t like mac & cheese and she don’t like breakfast sausage patties. We both agreed that if that was the worst thing that happens we would bee doing very good. There was plenty of further conversation till the sun rose. We agreed to be exclusive to each other. One weekend at her place the next one at at my place.

She (Jeanie) was married for 34 years to a pot head and cheated on her every chance he could get and proud of it. By this marriage they had a son (38) and a daughter (34 with a maturity level of a 15 yr old). Well that is enough for this blog. Stay tuned for the summer months and the wedding. Same bat time, same bat channel!

    Another thought. This is my first time trying the cyber support group thing so maybe someone can help me understand it all.
    Why is everyone hiding behind avitars and cute little cartoons? What are you hiding from? I had no problem posting a real picture of us – face and all. We have nothing to hide. It is what it is. That is one of the problems with addicts. Not only do they hide from others but their-selves as well. Face the music, you got yourself there in the first place.
