WOW What a great message tufflove. My poor husband is at a loss for words and at the end of his rope. I know he is and doesn't know what to do. He cannot control me because that is the only thing I rebel at. My father was THE control freak and I ran away from home at 15 and hitch-hiked across the country from commune to commune , never graduating from high school, and heavy into the drug thing and love the one your thing too I'm, embarrased to say ... My first marraige was a disaster and I ended up greatfully a safer woman when widowed with a six month old son, but still messed up and not di-og-nosed right. I have relized that I am bipolar and accept it begrudgely. but I am stubbern. I have gone thru my disability check already and broke for the rest of the month oh well. i have a computer, a nice roof over my head and food to make. so Ill be ok But all the ills I have to take I do by b]=my self and it is a job in itself. I'm going to try to give it my best effort. I have joined AA and NA and and doing the 90 meetings in 90 days thing thinking that will give me a shot at staying sober. Wish me luck? It has been 12 days now.
I hope you read this. Thank you for that fantastic response. Your wife is a lucky woman and smart to submit to you. Wish I had it in me to submit to my husband . He suggested I give my money to him to dole out to me but of course I said no. It would take away my dignaty.
Sincerely

P.S. still trying to change my name to desertwinds
