I'm making a lot of posts here at the moment, arent I? I just thought I'd make a small update. My mum's been sober for 3 days now, which I guess is good, although I still cant really see it lasting. Last year she told me she was going to quit, and I was so happy about it, and obviously that didnt work out. So maybe I just dont want to be disappointed like that again. Or maybe it's because I havent noticed any difference in my mum since she's been sober, although I suppose I dont have many problems getting along with her when she's not drunk, so perhaps it doesnt matter. But some times it's convenient to be able to blame bad things on her drinking rather than thinking that that's what she's like. I suppose in a round-about way it is to do with drinking anyway
She says she thinks she'll be able to drink socially, but I dont really agree, but also dont want to tell her how I feel about it. Just... she seems to think she'll be alright having a drink socially, but she was sober(ish) for a few days before Saturday, then got really drunk at a party.

Anyway, I suppose I'll just have to see how it works out and hope things get better.
