Still going strong. Nearly Xmas day! I’m determined to not drink. No alcohol in the house and not going to buy any. Celebrating Xmas does not have to include getting pissed out of your head, so I’m concentrating on that thought and taking it day by day.

This is so good to read! Let me read that again for my wooly head… Celebrating Xmas does not have to include getting pissed out of your head.
That one is going on my mirror until this silly season passes! All the best Printerman.

Had a great day Xmas day. Boxing day and in-laws eating watching football. Been alcohol free and feeling great.
This time of year can be hard. My father died suddenly 17 years ago of a sudden heart attack. He would be 70 now. Seems like a long time ago but being 51 next year it’s something I think about regular.
I moved from my home town 300 miles away for work in 25 years ago. Still visit family but miss the place enormously at this time of year. I’m a Geordie through and through and miss the north of England. My blood runs black and white.
I’m lucky to have a fantastic family, wife 3 kids and a well paid job but feel like I’m treading water sometimes with work. Well paid but boring is a tough mix. As you get older you wonder about the positive impact you had on the world and I’m sat here wondering…

Holiday up north almost over. Driving back to Cambridge area tomorrow. Sad to leave family and home town but got to get on with life. Had a lovely 17 day break the last 4 days will be back in the south getting back to normal for work.
Need to make some life changes along with the the no alcohol. My working life is dull which was boring my home life a bit which I think is why I drank. I need to get myself running again. Feeling a lot better off the booze but need to get my fitness back.
I don’t really have any hobbies so need to decide what I want to do with myself. I’d love another side income from a hobby but that’s always a hard thing to do…I need to be more creative another thing I struggle with.
Any thoughts or comments are very welcome.
