Sorry ive been gone so long...

Wow its been a long time! So much has happened. I quit my GM job and moved to Green Bay. At the time I thought I was doing the right thing, now im not so sure.  I miss my old job, I miss the girl I was dating when I was there (Brenda) and I miss the pay.  Im going to school full time which is good, that really is the only thing keeping me positive right now.    I live with my folks, they just thought it would be easier for me while trying to finish school.  I hope to be out of here within 6 months or so. I am going to jail for a month or two. I got in a bar fight and someone ended up getting stitches.  Was a very stupid thing to do, and now I have to pay the price.  Wont be a big deal as I will spend most of the time on house arrest, still sucks i spent 37 years with a spotless record and now I have a misdemeanor on it. I havent been able to shake the drinking monkey off my back.  Really its the #1 thing holding my life back.  Im pretty much over the divorce, although I have bad days once in a great while, where I miss my old life.   But the drinking has been sucking me of my money, my energy, my happiness and my self respect.   I keep trying to quit and I just cant seem to kick it. I will keep trying though. I have a friend going through a divorce now, I referred him to this site as it helped me soooo much.  I was so lucky to find this site last january, it helped me surived.
