Two years ago today was the first Easter away from my girls. I went to their moms gave them their baskets and we walked to the park and hit some ground-batting practice. I hugged them both kissed them and sent them off to their Easter w mom. I jumped in my truck and went to arco to pick up my go to booze. As I was getting into my truck this very attractive woman walks up to me w this card that had some literature from the Bible on it.
She said if you take this card you need to be set in gods ways. Like the dog that I am I was thinking hmmm maybe I can hook up w her somehow but she was very persistent this was all about Jesus so I gave her the card back and said thank you I’m ok. It went dark after that. Cried all the way to the bar drank my go to and met a few friends to watch hoops and drinks after drinks after shots happened. I was literally there for 7 hrs. Long story short I ended getting a dui 2 minutes from my house blew a .24 w a refusal. I lost my license for two years. This really put a damper on my 11 year olds relationship and I because we had to walk to softball- soccer. Luckily we live in a real small beach town in LA. I purchased a really cool electric bike last summer that got all 3 of us around. Friends would always ask my ex why doesn’t Nando drive. I put a lot of people into distress, I’ve lied to so many, lost a few friends, screwed up 5 relationships.
I’m asking for god to rid me of this evilness we call alcohol. I’m only sober 4 days and praying god to repent all my sins. I know it’s me that needs to put the work in. I just don’t want to struggle w my own mind anymore. Sorry for the rant.
Happy Easter-Passover all🙏🏼
