Saturday night Tommie went out with his cousin JC and would have stayed over on the farm.  But he decided to come home (under the influence) and continued drinking here.

I'm upset because he drove under the influence.  Also because he drove back and decided to go drinking even more, when he should have (could have) come home.  It is time for him to grow up.  When I spoke to him about it yesterday, he thought it was one big joke and couldn't see why I was so upset.  He arrived at work with some flowers today.  He said that he is sorry, that he loves me and that he hates it when I'm upset with him.  It's the first time ever that he has apologized like that.

Christel asked us all to do a treasure list last week.  It is where you only say good things about the other people on the group.  What you admire about them.  We got the list back today.  I will always treasure this list. It made me feel so special.  I'm honoured to have such a great group of friends.
