I am doing alright. Thanks for the nice messages that you sent me. I am feeling pretty good. I am watching t.v.,with my boy-friend and taking it easy. He is sleeping over tonight so that is great. NO SI so far and that is great. Tomorrow is the day I will be 43 years old :star: I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I have been using my coping skills,so that is great. I will be back on later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:

I am doing so-so. I had a bad night,cause my boy-friend and I got into a bad fight,and I slip with SI. I know it was not his fault,I need to get a better handle with my behavior and my emotions. NO one can do it for me. I will be alright. I just need sometime to get myself back on track. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be busy doing positive things for myself today. I will be just fine. Be back on later on. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:
