little about me

I am Jo Ella. I'm 31, married, have 4 kids  and 3 bonus kids. I am a poker dealer at a casino near us. I'm new to blogging but I do love to write. I have chosen the title Living with Addiction because my husband is an addict, myself recovering addict. I haven't used since March of 2008, it started out not using because I got pregnant in April of 08, but even after having 3 kids the past 3 years I don't have any desire to continue using, I have too much to lose. My husband, Kevin, has decided he wants to try to self rehabilitate, and try to do so thru a blog. which I am behind 100%, any movement in a forward direction is ok in my book. I am writing a "counterpart" to his blog because maybe he'll be able to see what life is like for us thru my words. How difficult it is to watch day after day the reckless behavior that is his addiction.
