MissHildy, I feel the same way after work and did drink to deal with it. Now I just don't drink, but still feel that way more than I like, but not as often anyway, or at least today. It get scared when I think about drinking at times like that. |

Awesome description hounden! Ouch! Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears. And how else can it be? The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain. Kahlil Gibran

I like that quote too Sarah! I think it could apply to 99% of the population- it is true when people say we are at least lucky to have a program! Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears. And how else can it be? The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.

Resentments can kill us if we don't do anything about them. You are not drunk unless you have to hang on while lying on the floor. |
