It's still a struggle for me and I'm single for the time being following a rebound relationship after my divorce from my alcoholic husband. I feel liberated to just be working on myself for the time being and having the time to do both fellowships between part time work and school.

Her breasts are tattooed in a floral blue and yellow so they look like twin chrysanthemums flopping from curtain rods.<br /><br />She posts these pics all over the Internet so I keep finding her breasts on unlikely sites.<br /><br />But she is sober at 55 years of age and living life her way. I love her to bits. It is never too late to have a happy adolescence.Mary LAhttp://louisey.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-18656476539559474322011-11-15T21:14:37.988-07:002011-11-15T21:14:37.988-07:00I think of what you wrote about loved ones who get...I think of what you wrote about loved ones who get sober as "taking what I like and leaving the rest". I am different from my wife. But I don't want her to be like me. I love her the way that she is. <br /><br />I like the honesty of what you wrote. She is her own person. And that's okay. <br /><br />Now I want to know what that dark hairy thing is on her leg.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642843245634635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-44717841624463906212011-11-15T18:47:55.549-07:002011-11-15T18:47:55.549-07:00"But it just doesn't look like I thought ..."But it just doesn't look like I thought it would."<br /><br />Our children never do.<br /><br />She is sober.
