UPDATE ON MY SITUATION
by tink1127, Jul 06, 2007 12:00AM
so here's an update on whats going on with my Grandma's death and the WHOLE FAMILY SITUATION....so my mom completely crossed the line with my girls and told them "every little detail" of her death (after i made it clear to her not to!!!) so i called her today and explained to her that my sister and i would be at the funeral with the girls, BUT we were bringing them cause it was their Great-Grandma and they needed to say goodbye. she "like always" thinks they're coming for HER!!!! i swear to god she makes me insane!!!! i needed to talk to her about it today, cause the stress of worrying was really bothering me. she once again played the "dumb & naive" role like she had absolutely "no clue" what i was talking about!!!! many of you know a little more about my realtionship w/ her and dont want to bore you with all the details. BUT she is the MAJOR FACTOR thats contributed to my "prior" drug abuse!!! since i left Florida i have 100% stopped the use of ALL street drugs and have managed to semi-maintain with the pain meds (that i do need/take for legite pain) i am dreading Monday...i feel like i deserve a "normal" time at my own grandma's funeral, but know all to well with my insane mother there it will be the same B/S as always...Please can all of you pray for me that i make it through this crazy, stressful and sad time WITHOUT ABUSING ANYTHING!!!!!
P.S. i just found out to that my brother (who's seriously addicted to crack is flying in tomorrow, just one more thing for me to deal with)
my luv to you all....
luv ya,
tink :)

just remember, the using won't help anything... it will only put off having to ultimately deal with it later. stay strong honey, you will feel SO empowered if you do..
also, you can't change your mom, as much as we'd all like to change our parents!! if you can, just try not to "play the game" with her. you don't have to engage in her ridiculous behavior... you have enough to worry about. can you just be polite, but keep her at arms length? and keep your focus on you and your girls? just a thought...
anyway - you are in my thoughts and prayers...
with luv,
mj
Dear Father in heaven I ask in Jesus name that You will help with both of our situations; mine with my step-mother and tink with her Mom. I pray that Your Love will outshine any of the problems that we might encounter with them. That our victories over our addictions will bare witness to Your Power and Glory and especially Your Love. In Jesus Precious Name I pray, Amen.
Thank you God for Blessing us both!
Jim

Now I just keep telling my self that I have more power than a Vicodin. If I pick up again it is my own fault, especially after going through this horrendus detox cold turkey.
