It's not all you; other people in the family are having stresses and making choices of how to respond too. Don't take on your daughters' choices, you're doing the best you can and it looks pretty good from here; trying to take care of yourself well and help others.

hummm you sold your bike so your daughter could maybe go to spain? That makes you a good DAd. LOL

Gained more friends and A sister who is a sheep LOL

Charges were dropped becuase you did not do it. And this gift was given to you before christmas....

You and your family have reliazed that daughter needs help and shes getting it
You tryed to help yourself.........
Chicken is a teenager, who will get better and you guys are getting her help......
Feeling sick maybe you think could be stress?
Your wife adores you ...............that I know ask Kathy?
You are still a family of 6 other wise you would not be worrying about her...........
So you see my brother your year may not have been so bad. You are here ..........and ppl care about you

A friend can be a sister,
A friend can be a foe.
My friend is like my sister,
I will never let her go.
A sister may not always be a friend,
But a friend should always,
no matter what,
be a sister.

I think about the past year too, my bank account going negative 225 ( its back up into the positives) my mom being payee on my disability (no more) leaving my job I love ( then going....back!!) so, I guess, everything that was broken was fixed, in its own way, in its own time...families are confusing therealme, and I do believe here, I read, friends are God's apologies for families...you lost some friends but can you work on the ones you still have, and what do they say?

HUGS!!!

Don't worry what the year will bring...that is stressful just looking at it for me...this past year has had major ups and downs and i am not thinking resolutions, not thinking what will be best for everyone in my life, not worrying that i wont be able to help when needed, no worrying who thinks what...i just am going to live day to day.

i have started so many things and never finish anything, i lost my kids to their stupid father, who lies and believes it himself, i lost my grandmother, my body has mind of its own on how much i should hurt, but i gained a hubby, love, and here. even?? i dunno.

I'm sorry went off on tangent....your sister friend is right, there are 2 points of view, look thru the glass and see the good, look for some small thing daily that makes you smile, hug yourself, and i hope you have a great 365 days of 2008...mel

Sorry, you had quite a year. My year seems to be bad also,
My sister's soon to be ex-husband hit her. So he went to jail.
I had been going to all my sister appt's to make sure she
wouldn't lose the kids. No such luck, she almost hit my niece , that I had to push her. I refused to help her and it was all downhill from there. She was arrested 2 times,
she just got out Dec 21.I feel so sad because I really love my sister, but I can't afford to get worse myself.Now, my Mom is acting irractic and depressed . She calls me at
4:30 am. to talk. I can hardly take it. My Dad bad mouthed
my mom, saying she walked away from her responsibilities,OOOps he must of forgotten he left my mom with 5 kids, no car, could not speak the language.It took a lot for me not to go over there and tell him off. I decided to work out instead.

My health sucks, I have been scheduled for 2 tests.
Other than that everything is great.

I did meet a man at the gas station , and I asked what he
was looking for in the garbage cans and he said, Empty pop cans. He was not having any luck, so I said here is a few bucks and God Bless you.

I drove off, crying, realizing again that I am so blessed,it could be alot worse.

Thank you for letting me share my feelings. "how are you coping, dec" "how are you coping, dec" "how are you coping, dec" "how are you coping, dec"
