All good here, last week at work finish Wednesday. I think i have accepted it, the cleaning job i cant wait to finish, but my homeless one will be a wrench… done most of my goodbyes to clients. I gave them all factsheets what we had accomplished, useful telephone numbers, their achievements and their goals all in put into a card, its the least i could do… as i said before , they help me as much in my recovery, i really think the world of them all .
Just praying my background check does not scupper my new job offer, if so i am jobless. But keeping a positive head on, i deserve abit of luck.
Have a good day all.

Day 391.
A good day. Thanks all for the lovely bday wishes! I dodged the boozy dinner tonight. A bit of a story, but - while I don’t like to not honor commitments, I’m also a lot more aware of how booze on “off hours” with work people affects work and relationships during the “on hours”. I’m fine around booze if it’s normie pals sipping wine while we chat away, but I think the agenda tonight was to uncork. I do need to re-engage with colleagues F2F, and otherwise make sure I’m not avoiding social situations (boozy or otherwise), but I still get to be choosy…
Walked the dog girl between thundershowers instead, had a quick chat with a pal and made my own salmon and quinoa bowl. Lovely.
Let’s call this one done, hey friends? Onward - let’s do another one! But first, sleep.
G’night, big love to all.
@Kmcc123 The only way out is through, friend - and it sounds to me like you’ve rolled up your sleeves and you’re doing the slow work to get through it. One step at a time, sometimes. We’re with you.
@Claartje congrats on 1 month!
@AyBee there it is! Nice. How could I ever doubt you?
@Chiron I forgot! We’re twins! I’m so honoured. But oh man, next year we plan for a better celebration! (edit!) Hope you had the loveliest day.
Day 14. For some reason if feels like it’s been an incredibly long 14 days but in an entirely good way . I’ve managed to cram a lot of worthwhile stuff in and made some memories that’ll last a life time. I had a mild wobble on Saturday but I didn’t give in to my dickhead of a brain, another sober weekend done and another clear headed and happy Monday morning today . Well done everyone, you’re all amazing.
Congratulations on your 2 weeks Byron. Great job
Thanks Eric. Have a good day mate
Congratulations on your two weeks!
