Ps 31:24 "Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, All you who hope in the LORD."

Does your husband know that his drinking is forcing you to the point of wanting to leave? Perhaps you and he have already discussed it. I don't suppose there is any way to get him into rehab? I'd try to find a sober moment to discuss with him you feel you have to leave because of the alcoholism. It may not have sunk in for him how bad he is.

But speaking of becoming a writer, did you know the Amazon kindle is making it easier for authors? The whole e-book craze. You can write a book for Amazon kindle and submit it to them, you set the price yourself and get 30 percent. No worrying about a publisher! I've been trying to think of book ideas myself. I can write easily but cannot think of book themes. The life of a "dog rescuer" has already been made into a book several times.

What kind of thing are you thinking of writing? I can see you writing inspirational religious themes, those are very popular sellers on Kindle too.

I'm working on a devotional book as well as one for doing object lessons w/every day items. I also have a Christian romance partly written.

And, my hubby knows I'll leave, I think he just doesn't really realize that I will. That's one reason I'm spending so much time working on this field at RU's. I'd need a place to put the goats, bunnies and chickens. And, she wouldn't care about them being there. It helps to have such a good friend.

Well it is good to have a plan in mind then. It must be a lonely feeling, having to have that plan. I wish I were closer and could offer more help.

A friend made the comment one day that I'm basically a widow, even though I'm still married and still live w/my hubby. We basically do nothing together. And, it's not because I won't do things w/him, he won't do anything that doesn't involve alcohol. I'm seriously considering telling him that he needs to make a choice, me or Ethyl (alcohol).

I'd have thought you would have told him that long ago. You really should stand up and tell him exactly that...but be ready to stand your ground if he chooses the alchohol over you. Praying for you Deb, and praying that the Lord touches your hubby's heart.

What is he running from? Alcoholics in general are usually running away(in their mind) from some THING. What's his THING? What is his problem?!?!

Deb honey...if I was a man I'd give my right arm for a wifey like you dear

Seriously...I just have to wonder what the heck gives with him?!?!

If you need to leave, then you need to

 

[Denim Deb]

What he's running from is God.

Hit him with the truth then That's a tough one. I'll be praying for him, and you!
