About Me
I am happily married, have two kids, cats, and dogs. I love to garden, read, listen to music. I am the child of an alcoholic, who is not alive now. By the grace of God he did find sobriety and was i n AA for yrs. I've been affected by those with substance abuse problems most of my life, if not all, and by grace I am not an addict, but love many.

Close Families & Friends Of Addicts
I was the child of an alcoholic, have been affected by this disease as well as other addictions by other people in my life.
Treatments
- Al-Anon Working / Worked
- Al-Anon was a life line for me in the 80s and after! I learned about alcoholism, my part in it, tools for healthy living even if someone else is not living that way. Met lots of good people who understood my pain. I have gone to meetings off and on since, and will always use the knowledge I learned.
- Patience Working / Worked
- Patience, I have acquired more over the yrs. I see the fruits later.
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- I have gone to counseling since the 80s and rarely go now, because I don' t need to. I will go if do need to. It was a lifeline, too. It was work, and well worth it! Hard to go at times, lots, but you have to make yourself. Just like going to an Al-Anon meeting, you feel better after and sometimes during. Sometimes you have to shop around for a counselor, but don't let that discourage you.
- Talking Working / Worked
- Yes, vent and listen to others and we all help each other stay on the right course! Need some guidelines sometimes in venting, so all can share and benefit the whole group.
- Writing Working / Worked
- I wrote a few journals in the 80s at a very hard time in my life and reread them yrs later. It was very interesting writing them and then reading them later. I threw them away when I felt I did not need them and they had helped enough. I did not want them to ever be found. That was just my thing. Some save them forever.
Close Fitness Goals
Type: Maintain a workout scheduleI've wanted to lose 10 lbs or more for prob 4 yrs now.
Treatments
- Aerobics Working / Worked
- I do well with in home dvds, and I have an execise machine, so this worked, but using a dif dvd now, get bored, have to mix it up!
- South Beach Diet Somewhat Helpful
- Atkins was great for me, because portion sz is usually my problem. South Beach would have worked, but I was sick of Atkins, and they are very similar.
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
I want to lose 15 lbs.
Treatments
- Atkins Diet Working / Worked
- It worked yrs ago, but when you get sick of it, it's done. Don't want to eat that way again.
- Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
- Portion control is my problem. Eating healthy is the way to go.
- Eat Less Working / Worked
- This is the key, but will power is hard, when I'm hungry!
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- This is always a must, for total health.
