Bobby keeps telling me that he is not going to live past 30 or 40 because of the abuse he has done to his body (alcohol and drugs). At one point he did coke but that was a long time before I met him. Amazingly he quit it cold turkey on his own. He is trying to quit drinking but is having a hard time. He has gone from everyday to 3x a week though. Part of me thinks he is crazy about this prediction and the other part of me is scared. What do you think - his birthday is November 30, 1976 and initals are BP.
The kids are okay. Somehow they picked up summer colds. So far Isabella is fine but I am sure she is next.
I've given up on Mystery Shopping because it takes too long to get paid and was looking into working at home with Ameriplan and another company but looks like it is not in God's plan. I've also been hoping to get a dog but nothing is working out so I think I will give up on that for awhile too.
I am looking forward to nursing school. Unfournately, I still do not have my license and need to by school. I failed the road test twice for stupid reasons (1st time stopped just past the line at the stop sign, and the second time when I parall parked my butt was out a bit) and have another test a few days before school starts. I better pass!

I know many people with a history of substance abuse who, once they stopped drinking and using live really long. If he stops drinking he will live longer. If he wants to live longer than 30 or 40 he needs to stop affirming that he's gonna die young.If his telling you this scares you tell him to stop saying it! Tell him to go to AA if he can't stop drinking, but he has to want to. A self-fulfilling prophesy is one that you make come true by constantly thinking it. Maybe he is depressed? Maybe he's being emotionally abusive to himself. He could use AA big time. It will help him stop drinking and spiritually uplift him.
As for you, keep trying to achieve everything to want. Don't give up on your dreams!
love
