Day 234, nice number hm? 
I’m already on my way home, period got worse since yesterday. Meh. Who invented that!? I need to talk to the manager!
I’ll get something yummie to eat and relax, treat me well. Also I have to bake another oat bread 
This bread really helps me to stop the craving for unhealthy foods, that’s awesome. I sometimes eat it with something sweet too but that’s way less sugar than I would consume without that bread.
Besides that there’s nothing interesting to write about, hmm maybe the man I met. But that just happened some days ago so: stay calm. He’s not my type from the outside but from the inside. Still, I’ll stay cautious. My intuition didn’t work well in the past with men.
Have a beautiful sober day friends, stay strong

@Mno Congrats on the contact work. 
@Becsta doing awesome! I do hope you figure out a way to nap during the day – don’t want you to burn out at this pace. I never could nap and still not the best at it but I do try and force myself to laydown and close my eyes – at least the body gets some rest (if I fall asleep then bonus)
@Lea08 so glad that you are reconnected as well. So happy to hear the positivity in your life from being sober. I am thrilled that you are getting this time to spend and enjoy with your kids and make some amazing memories
@HappyDays Congrats on your 20 days!!!
@Alycia I hear you that it totally sucks when you are doing everything right and you still don’t feel “right”. Don’t look at going back on the anti-depressants as a bad thing – its just an aid at this moment to get you through. You have been off of them for 2 years and will be again soon. I can understand wanting to drink cause why not – nothing seems to be working — this is so wrong (you may not see all the changes but you are healing in your 419 days of sobriety) Keep checking in, and I do hope the meds help you get out of your funk. We are here for you.
@CATMANCAM Thank you! My goodness my friend – that addict demon is really digging in deep. Its awful that you are dealing with all that noise when you are trying to find peace. I do know that my brothers next door neighbors live on the stairs (constantly running up and down) It doesn’t seem to bother anyone but me – go figure. I couldn’t even imagine being around the noise you are describing. Good on you for talking yourself out of the urges. It really is a matter of consciously talking to ourselves and sometimes making deals with ourselves. You are doing great with the bingeing too. Can’t go from 0 to 60 too quickly so baby steps my friend – you are really putting in the work and it shows.
@Sabrina80 Love the number! You are cracking me up and I know you are feeling like shit – hope it gets better very soon. Let me know if you get a hold of the manager. Enjoy the bread – your body needs it. Hmmm? A man huh? Be cautious but don’t be closed off – its always the inside that counts most. Have a fabulous day.
@ArtMama Well done on the 90 days!!!
@Noshame It was a nice feeling knowing that I did have a community in my old neighborhood (lived in there for 18ish years) I am hoping that something does come along for you too – I see all the effort you are putting in – keeping fingers crossed that something pans out.
Checking in on Tuesday morning
I am frustrated today – started off well – woke up at 5:30, got my first saliva vial completed. Tidied up and got my coffee ready. Stopped by my parents on my way for morning walk. Got into a fight with mom (turned the morning to shit). Luckily didn’t have money on me so couldn’t buy cigs to calm down. Did go for my walk but then ½ way realized I had a delivery to make that I’d apparently forgotten about – rushed home to get that done. Late on eating breakfast which I need to eat in time to give myself 2 hours of no eating / drinking before filling next vial. Have 4 total today so it’s gonna be fun – I’m on my way to get some baking done and hopefully the mediations I’ve been doing all day will help raise my mood. Already feeling more at peace. Have a blessed sober day everyone.

Day 129
Today I’ve been having a relatively lazy one but… yeah. It is what it is. I’m really struggling to function and the heat isn’t helping. And my AirBnB host didn’t leave the air-con remote. I understand him wanting to save money. I completely understand how energy prices have gone through the roof. But FFS, I’m not his cousin Carol he’s allowing to stay in the apartment as a favour. Surely the cost of renting should include the use of amenities???
Rant over.

I’ll probably just leave it. I’m too tired to waste energy on arguing.

I agree with @Billy85
Especially if the page lists air conditioning under amenities. That’s total crap.
