yes I probably should be buried somewhere. Night night.
Wow 100 days? I need to get my head out of my ass and pay attention better. Congrats on triple digits my friend and thank you for all the support you give me.

Congratulations Paul. Remember to take it just one day at a time, one hour at a time, even one breath at a time.
Good night to all my sober friend…

Life is a bitch. Day 100 and day 60 nearly over and nearly didn’t make it. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh a awayeth. Give me 100 days sober but takes the life of a dear lady I’ve been caring for and had the honour of knowing for 15 or more years. Also get a hole in the petrol tank of the car so all the money I’ve saved has just gone and I was going to buy a new phone this week instead. Spent a few minutes in the shop deciding if just one drink would be nice to take the edge of the day but as soon as I picked it up my liver began to ache so laughed and thanked my Higher Power for the advice. Life is too short for us all, one day we will be laying there wanting all this time back.
Use yours wisely.

So sorry for your loss Paul. You’ve got a tough job, I give you a lot of credit. It must be really hard to lose those people you’ve been around daily for years. Very sad.

some of them become like family and this lady, Hazel, was a different class. Always wanted a kiss, always said she loved you. Sad.

So sad to hear that your friend Hazel is gone. Such a tough thing. I understand why you’d consider picking up. Super proud of you for not doing it. You know you’d just regret it in the end. Sober is better. Big hug to you when you get around to reading this.

thanks. I had a guilty drinking dream instead. I love waking up finding out I’m still sober. Have a good day.
Thank god this day is almost over. I really don’t know why I bother sometimes. Nothing I do is right, my Mrs was a lot happier when I was drunk and stoned so if she’s happy I’m happy. We were actually going to go our separate ways today, finally some peace and bloody quiet, it was over. Then as I left I told her I was going to the pub, she even started freaking out about that. It was over it had nothing to do with her, OMG even in my 2 minutes of freedom she still tells me what to do. 
Anyway she ends up at the doctors and is diagnosed with depression which hasn’t helped bc she doesn’t believe in depression and thinks people should just stop being sorry for themselves, this now means she has an incurable illness called, I’m fucking angry and if people don’t like it they can fuck off.
I’ve been in the shop having an argument with the beer section again. Somehow I win, that’s two nil to me lately after alcohol going on a 36 year winning streak.
I don’t know why I moan about AA bc every time I go I feel better even if it’s only until I get home. So somehow, and don’t ask me how, I’m still not single and I am still sober.
Come on tommorow, let’s see what you got. Be strong sober warriors. Respect.

You’ve had one hell of a day Paul. Sorry it was so rough. Proud of you for staying strong in the face of the beer section. You know you did right. This too shall pass and you’ll be an even better man than you are now. Hugs.

What a shit day but you came out on top. So proud of you for getting thru.
My husband thinks depression is just an excuse and not an illness. We butt heads about this all the time.

I don’t actually know what day it is today and it’s not important right now. Words fail me sometimes, which may come as a surprise to some of you.
Good night and god bless.
