Bring on the Rain - Part 3

[SueS]

lwb- To answer your questions.......

OW gets off work at 11:30 pm. She tells her H a few different stories. She's having coffee with some of the girls from work....she's sitting by herself in a parking lot crying and thinking....etc. Funny thing is that once her H mentioned to me that she and some of the girls go to Perkins for coffee after work. Last fall I remember a time when my H came home at 3:00 am. I was awake and very upset. I asked where he'd been. Answer...I was just at Perkins having coffee. There's one down the street from us. At the time I didn't really believe he was at Perkins. Turns out he probably was....just not the one by us and not alone.

Your other question/thought about the book. It's a kind of daily affirmations book?? I have it. I have to be honest and say that I haven't pulled it out in a while. I went to a Al-Anon meeting and it was given to me then. I'll pull it back out. H doesn't understand why I'd need it. He's seen it.

And Puppy.....I'm in the same boat....a child of an alcoholic. My sister, mom and I fit some very distinct patterns of children of alcoholics. My grandfather was one too. My mom & I both married alcoholics and felt the need to "fix" things. My sister was the one that spoke out to my dad, voiced her opinion. We're all really close, but she keeps herself very guarded and doesn't always let us know what's going on in her life.
