I'm sorry I haven't responded until now... My ASUS laptop gave out on me a few days ago. I spent the whole weekend installing Windows 7 Ultimate on my machine. To make matters worse, I had to do a few system restores yesterday while learning the new version of Advanced SystemCare Pro (ASC). I do not recommend ASC 8! ASC 7 is good... It's excellent, but 8 sucks! I finally figured a way around a glitch(?) in the program, restored my operating system to an earlier date and uninstalled ASC 8. I found the ASC 7 executable file online somewhere, downloaded it and installed it on my laptop. Also, I created a Windows 7 virtual machine on my Macbook in case anything went wrong with my ASUS again. Been busy the past few days. And my hands... God, I need to rest them!

Thank you for your prayers, badgoodDeb. You're in mine, too. I had a heated discussion... Well, really an argument with a relative yesterday about my niece's and her mother's behavior. I'm tired of discussing histrionic behavior with histrionic people. It's one thing if they're being honest with themselves and sincere--true to themselves. It's another thing if they're dishonest and closed-minded. *shaking head* No wonder why my niece has a hard time being honest--it runs in my family. I'm thankful for Albuquerque AA. It taught me how to be honest--rigorously honest. I need to go back and finish working through the 12 steps in Albuquerque if I could--with my hands and all. I can't write like I used to. I could barely write a paragraph or two now.

Anyway, to answer your question, Wodin. I haven't spoken to my "sponsor" about it. I rarely see him... I don't like working with him as much. He's very knowledgable of the Big Book of AA, but his quality of sobriety isn't the same as recovered alcoholics in Albuquerque AA. Yes, I used the term "recovered". For a good reason... I wish I could go into details, but my hands are hurting a lot. 'Need to type as little as possible. To make a long story short, he does agree that I have to move out of here as soon as possible. It's just a matter of resting my hands, organizing my stuff when I could, fixing my car and saving money. "Just"... lol

Thank you for your concern, Cromag, Wodin, Wearever, and badgoodDeb. You're all in my thoughts.
