    since so many of you guys HATED MY DRAMA as you called it....(i just call it my life at that time)...which was wild roller coaster ride for nearly three years.......(and damm do i love wild coasters)......but not in real life situations out of amusement parks me thinks......

    so the drinking may still be a prob even though i quit for a month save one birthday party...my FIRST EVER!....yet i was moderate.....new lite even told me so.......

    i started back a bit last week.....way too soon and not sure why.....but loss of biz is a huge stress.......first time in my life i feel a struggle and cash flow worries....so i am DAMM LUCKY i guess!!........first time ever.....really........i mowed yards and cleaned gutters starting at 10, and had a huge morning paper route from age 13-15 at 5:00 that got me my first motorcycle....and had a great paying job in high school........weird having your first money worries at mid-life....oompa

    it was a mini apostafest btw......but there was punch and i added some vodka......there was a ton of booze btw....but i did ok.....weird but i had none of the typical side effects of quitting.....no withdrawal......and i have drank a good bit of hard every night for at least three years.....kind of my self medicating sleeping pill.....

    HOWEVER.....i did only sleep an hour a night for the first two nights, and that was not until 6 am....but still i felt great the next day as at least i rested well watching tv......i know i should prob just give it up for good, but maybe it is just an emotional attachment since i had no physical withdrawals??.......i gotta figure it out for me i guess..............i am soooo damm lucky to have so many others from here nearby!!!.......thanks guys........oompa

    i love my new friends!!!!.......

    Maybe the loss of your business is making your life simpler, along with getting things worked out in you mind about the JW experiance, being an ex-JW etc etc, mqking new friends and you are able to handle life now without all the drinking?
