Back at it

About 4 years ago, I started this blog.  A few short months later, I dropped it.  Not intentionally, I guess I just didn't need it for me at that point.

I'm now needing to write again.  I've re-read my last posts from several years ago, and all of them ring true.

A brief update:  Al & I did get back together, and ended up moving back to my family home to start a new business.  A shrink would have a field day analyzing those decisions of mine, and complicity in decisions of Al & me together.  I'll try to address that in another post.

But we've been back here for 2 years, opened the business (fairly successfully), but the sobriety thing just hasn't stuck.

I have come to realize - with the help of a very wise friend - that Al doesn't want to stop drinking.  Now I'm facing, yet again, how to handle that.

It's my birthday, Al's still sleeping (at 8:45 a.m.), and I'm sad.

It's time for me to get back to basics.  Like writing.
