Today is the day.
Today is the day we are going to go broke.
We are supposed to buy a ref for the house and fans (we have three rooms and a living room with only one fan - how sad). And we are also supposed to have my eldest tested for his entrance exams in two schools we have narrowed down for him. I dont know if all this would push through though. I have a lot to do today - one of them to apply for internet and cable connection at the house and change all mailing addresses for our bills to our new one.
I think the list is endless. *sigh*.
Today is also the day I will try to convince a close family friend to submit himself to rehab. He has been hooked on alcohol for the longest time and we were all in denial that he is addicted and getting himself more hooked than ever - he was able to maintain his job and wasn’t really violent. However, things are spiralling down as the drinking spree has become nightly and he can gulp down one bottle of brandy in one night. He has been really depressed and alcohol was his way of coping. So he really needs to undergo alcohol rehab. I think we will be doing this the medical way and make sure he gets alcohol detox before we start on counselling and therapy. I dont know why he would be depressed as he has a very happy family but I guess you will never know what really goes in inside of him, right? It can be childhood issues, job pressures, identity problems - we really do not know. I just know being addicted to alcohol is like drug addiction as well.
