So the title of this blog is Shoes and Other Addictions. So I thought I should explain the title a bit more. I have more addictions then shoes and most of them are materialistic, yes I am fine with admitting that. But, addiction is a huge piece of me and my life. What I am about to say is something I have hid from people and have been embarrassed about, but it is something I really don't want to hide anymore. It is something that will probably shock some but what I have learned from it and am continuing to learn from it is something I feel is worth sharing. So here it goes; I am the wife of a recovering alcoholic.
Wow, there it is in black and white. Scarey!!
What I can tell you right now is 2010 was the worst year of my life. I never want to experience what I did last year, the heartache, the worry, the fear, the loss and the anger is something I don't wish on anyone. I honestly believed that last year was never going to end, but it did and what I have taken away from 2010 has made me a better, stronger, more confident person. I would change a lot of things about last year, but what I have gained has made me a who I am today. For that I am thankful, and continue to be so every day.
As I said I am a wife of a recovering alcoholic, as of today Dan has been sober for 277 days. Each one of these days has been a blessing and I am so proud of him!! We have a lot more work to do but we have come so far.
So this blog is going to be a little bit of everything, lighthearted, funny, sad, mad and everything in between.
