Day 336...
Only 29 days to go. November 25th will mark one year of sobriety. Think I'll have a party...get drunk...
JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!! (humor people..humor)
I know I can never drink again. Something that I learned in AA, made alot of sense(for me). It's that first drink that does it. It won't matter how long I've been sober, if I have that first drink I'll spiral back down. Like something short circuits in my brain. People argue this fact. But I firmly believe it in my case. Besides, I don't really want to test the theory. I'm quite content living a life completely void of alcohol.
Nothing changing much with the divorce. We have a temp. custody order right now. Won't go into detail. All I can say is that it really doesn't work, and we'll most likely be fighting back in court soon. I've started accepting the fact that this will pretty much stay a part of my life for the next 10 years(at least). Fighting with Philip. I dismiss it all as "payment of past sins." Karma. It's a pain and a hassle, but I accept it and move on.
FYI:
I participated in graduation ceramonies for my GED on August 30th. My mom and my sister and the kids and my bf were there. It was a small crowd, only about 70 graduates (those who chose to participate). After the guest speakers, they called out names of grads who had scored a perfect score on one or more parts of the test. My name was called (perfect score on Lang.Arts/Essay test). Then they honored the top scorer, valedictorian, of the class of 2007. This year there was a tie. They called my name. I stood up in shock. The other girl was shocked as well. We weren't informed we had made valedictorian. The memory of that moment will live with me forever.
