My wife is my q. I’ve been attending Alanom for four years. My wife has skirted the issue of alcohol being a problem for the first two years but over a year ago she decided she had had enough and wanted to live without alcohol.

It’s been a bit of a roller coaster, the more I practice the principles I have learned in Alanon the better I seem to show up for her. I know I can not control her, but I struggle with the idea that I am not voicing my true feelings when I refrain from saying something in an attempt not to control others.

I should probably be going to my regular group meeting or reaching out to my sponsor but I am here seeking some advice.

This is the third year in a row my wife is taking the same trip to see an old friend from highs ho out of state. The first time her friend was single, and I asked if I could go with. We had a great time. My wife drank and it became a problem the second night.

Last year she went on her own with another married formal friend. This year she is going again alone. My concern comes from her choosing to drink. I know it is out of my control, but do I say something about my concerns or not before she leaves? I want to support her but I also want to be able to openly discuss my feelings and lack of trust even though the last year has been mostly
Positive and our marriage is in a better position than a year ago.

I think it’s mostly fear. We have been through so much, truly awful times… I have seen how much my wife has grown in sobriety and I am afraid that this weekend is just an excuse to get wild, get drunk, and who knows what can happen when she blacks out and I am not there to care for her.

Let’s say I get all four printing plates for a card. Would I be able to roll ink on them and print my own cards one at a time?

So I cut these about ten days ago. Let them dry removed the leaves and flowers then I applied powdered root hormone on the dry cut end along with two inches above the cut and placed in a 60/40 blend of cactus/succulent potting mix and vermiculite.

Should I keep the try below them ? I have gravel in the bottom inch or so of each pot.

Should I keep them in full sun? Put them under the table for partial shade?

Anyone else bidding? I was thinking of bidding up to 3k

Really neat tool. Shows most Choeymon auctions it is sortable and even shows historical sales with a few hours of delay. Really cool!
