Yeah. Like it doesn't take me forever to post something as it is. Now I have to make sure I type everything just right before I hit submit...

'Cause I can't fix it any more...

Hiya, Shabbat Shalom and Happy Friday everyone,

I am ok. I'm staying dark, but I will admit I'm getting info here and there. It doesn't change what I am doing, where I am heading or where I am going towards. It just is nice to see.

I figure this latest thing is #2 of 100,000 towards maybe coming home. My DD's car was broken into and the window is broken. She doesn't have insurance, so she called her father and he is willing to help her this afternoon. I did ask for a few more information points, but in theory it really doesn't matter. He hasn't been a helping dad since this all happened.

As Luna, why by the way I miss very much, always says... Not much impact in my life... information to have... now it's done and I keep moving.

Hi Hope,

Just got home from services. The torah portion this week, vayikra is on sacrifices as leaders. It also was my son's portion for his bar mitzvah almost three years ago, pre A I believe.

I LOVE the new 2 x 4 icon. I might just have to do it on principle alone.

Guess what I realized tonight. I like myself and I like being with myself, living alone and having fun with myself. I don't need anyone to make me happy because G-d leads me. Seems so simple, but gosh it was hard to figure out.

Have a good weekend Mark and Hope, be good to yourselves

Well,it's been a long time since I was this sad or low. And I wasn't sure if I wanted to post about it or not. I'm not looking for anyone's sympathy etc. I just have kept this thread as part of my journey.

Silly me thinking that I was protecting my heart. Silly me thinking I was strong enough to hear my DD talk about her dad and not have it deeply affect or scare me.

So fortunately, Rin was on and she told me to focus on G-d and that's what I am going to do. But I need to post the latest because maybe one day someone's M will be restored and they would have read something I wrote to help them not give up hope or they see that it's just the same.

My DD car got broken into Thursday night. She contacted her dad because she needed his help and he came through for her. The first time in such a long time.

She text me tonight and told me what had happened and how he was so proud of her for the help she had given him and that he realizes what a mistake he made with respect to the children. He realizes what he lost and he wants to reconnect with all three of them. But nothing about me, just he wants to know what to do about the taxes.

When will my love bank be empty or negative so that what he does won't hurt me anymore. What does G-d want from me. I hate feeling the pain and sadness. The pain of losing someone you love so deeply and they don't even care. I get that I need to go dark again and protect myself from his hurtful ways. But somehow now that she is out of the picture.... I just want to be held and cry my heart out so it will stop hurting.

I'm going to a symposium called To Life! The Journey of Addiction & Recovery in our Jewish Community. It will occupy my day tomorrow instead of me hanging around the apt, feeling sorry for myself.
