I write this thread with a heavy heart. I feel compelled to tell you, my friends, that I screwed up. I got in trouble. I recieved a 2nd dui in July and I am now facing the cosequences of my act. Feb. 4th, I go to jail. Rightfully so. No act like this, that could have cost a family loss, deserves no less such punishment. I am not proud of it. As part of my sentence, I asked for and received acceptance into the DUI court. It is a very strict program. Appearance weekly in court, frequent and random UA's, home inspections, PBT's, curfew...a whole list. I only have 17 days of jail, but this program lasts a minimum of 18 months and the cosequences of failure are extreme. The point I am bringing this up for is that I asked for it to show my committment towards sobriety. I had 6 months sobriety the day before I got pulled over! Yeah! Crazy, huh?
So I started this thread to let you know and to also say that I hope this is still going while I serve my sentence. Your friendship means so much and I always am greatful of feedback. When I get out, this will be the first place i go, and I promise to write back. A very good person whom I am proud to call my friend, once told me that "It is not important that you have failed or the number of times that you have.....as long as you start again!!" Thank you, luv2roknroll! |

Wow, Woody. Sorry to hear this.
Hopefully things will work out better for you when it's all over. Be thankful that you didn't cause an accident. My ex's brother was killed by a drunk driver. |

When you're feeling down and oh so blue......... when you think there is nothing that you can do........... pick yourself up and shake off your pain................ look around and notice the rain.... because behind it is a rainbow waiting to burst through.... and know that each color is a feeling for you.... Things may not seem perfect they often not are.... but know that my love for you will never be far.... ((((Woody))) |

It's good to admit you mistakes and to face the consequences of your actions. I hope you learn from the experience. Best wishes towards your sobriety.
Livelife...one day at a time. |

Maybe now on this thread is my time to come clean too...
I have fallen into a very deep depression, and am finding it harder to function everyday. Life it seems has become overwhelming for me, and im not quite sure how to deal with it all. I have an appointment scheduled to see a doctor soon, and hopefully meds will help me... So Woody, right now its hard for me to focus, I have good and bad days...todays a bad one, plus I have the flu. But you will be in my prayers, and im sure that both of us are gonna be ok. I love you babe |

I love you babe Life has a great way of grabbing us by our ass and throwing us back into our main stream of living..then we look back and think,wow,,I turned it around.. But THEN,,you have to keep it in check,wink. I write this thread with a heavy heart. I feel compelled to tell you, my friends, that I screwed up. I got in trouble. I recieved a 2nd dui in July and I am now facing the cosequences of my act. Feb. 4th, I go to jail. Rightfully so.

Thank you, luv2roknroll! YOU CAN DO IT MAN!!! Just know IT ONLY "YOU" who can help "YOU".. Everyday, carry your trust with-in your own hand. And don't let your self cheat your life and your future. Find your out to keep your mind off doing and your good...You stoped for so long,,you can stop forever,,really! I'll PRAY for you both and PLEASE,,stay safe and NEVER DRIVE AGAIN,,,with ANY BOOZE IN YA... Its NOT just YOUR LIFE MAN...It could be any of us... I have lived on the road for 30 years and seen way to many die from drinking and driving or drugs and driving. If one NEVER gets behind that WHEEL,,,,then THAT,,,can never happen by them.. |
