This is the calmest Christmas ever. Phil behaved himself throughout..........That's a first. He was in good form at Garys too.
Maybe my tough love worked. I was upset with him following the wedding and normally I would have given in after a few days and gone back to "normal". This time I didn't.
He has enjoyed Christmas with the kids and actually had fun himself.
Is this a breakthrough? - well puppy dog syndrome is looming but I will know for sure after New Years eve.
All I can say is that I have had a very nice Christmas.
If this man would only realise how much everyone loves him when he is NOT drinking...........................................
Oh if only the light shone through and he finally realised drinking is a lonely pasttime, family is far from lonely and the effects last longer than booze.
ReplyDeleteLove you, love him, when he is good he is good. It's when he is bad I want to slap him.
I hope this continues well into the New Year and beyond....Now get on with that dissertation!!!
Hugs
Loves
Kisses

PS Great news about Elaine and Jim:)
So glad you had a happy Christmas! Here's to a year of many, many good days. Take good care. It's warming up here and have made the trek to work safely and pretty easily for the last two days. Hurray!
