Starting and not finishing

I'm pretty good at starting projects and not following through to the end.  As anyone reading this blog can see it's been more than 3 months since I made my first post here.  But I don't want this journal to become another activity that goes undone.

I'm not sure what my main purpose is in writing this blog.  Maybe no one will ever read it and it will simply be a rant about my thoughts and feelings about the many mishaps that have occurred throughout my life. Something that I can go back and reflect on as my recovery journey continues.

One thing I have heard thru my AA meetings is that I am not unique (and I really always believed I was!)  I'm not the first person to abuse alcohol and have her life become unmanageable.  Not the first to be a twice divorced wife.

But I have other secrets (and yeah I know I am only as sick as my secrets) that haunt and shame me.
