"We did It!! We got married. And I didn't drink...even when I put him on the plane yesterday."
10:46pm Friday
one day off Mood
Wednesday, July 1, 2009 | A General Update story

So, my counter is actualy one day off.  I have 2 weeks pot free and totally sober today.  It's been months since I have been totally sober, but even then, after about 2 months, my back went out and I found the UK equivalent of Tylenol Codene, over the counter and I must say, I took the max dose, although I didn't NEED it all the time, because I enjoyed the high.

 

Yes, I am a typical addict.  Everthing in excess...I find now that I am eating as if I have the munchies, just because I am bored.  And trying to stock up on good food is a futile effort, as my roomates tend to help themselves to anything that has sat around for more than a few days.  

 

This too shall pass and hopefully soon, I will score that good job and the perfect little cheap place of my own, where I can have my kitty that has been at the Humane Society for 8 months (She had her 9th b-day there and I have had her since she was 7 weeks old) and can get my fiance' over here so we can finally get married.

 

Yes, totally sobriety is the way...I know thatNow, I just need to figure out what is holding me up from doing the AA work.  Been going there and alcohol free for 16 months. Hmm...yet another mystery.
