| Halt
Hungry, Angry, Lonely,Tired! Any one alone when you are new can send you out and even when you are a long timer they can send you out again. I admit its not the single alone for me but hit me with a combination of them and its a great scenario for a slip.
Yesterday was one of those times; I was frustrated with the Spanish class situation, had not slept well so I was tired, and its the tail end of the month which means no money for the foods I like snacking on , nuts and fruits. Splitting headache, and it wasn't sugar. So I hit the sack and had to be up today at 7:30 am and did so, minus the headache but have done nothing but run since. Out for breakfast which should have been findished with by 11 am, Hah!! Got home at 12:30 and had a 1 pm pick-up scheduled for a 1:30 urologis'ts appointment. The Medicare Part D new plan forced me to switch to a generic medication instead of what I had been taking for the MS caused and inherited bladder issues. The generic didn't work! Lets just say I had siveral "incident's" including out at breakfast today and finally got the meidcation issues resolved so am back on my originally prescribed medication. Thank GOD?HP for the teachings of HALT and thank you Bill W and Dr. Bob for when issues like this arrise. And the rest of my easter came in the mail today, which will resolve the food issue a $200 gift card for Wegman's an upscale grocery which I love and can't affort but it is the, preferred by me and willingly given by my folks, gift for easter belly Button Birthday, which is September, and Xmas. So rather than buying grocery's for my household when staying there as they do with my other sisters I get the gift card and I am a happy camper and they don't feel like I am not being treated the same as my three younger sisters.
The thing is that without the many ODAATS of recovery behind me none of this would be possible and more than likely I would either be six foot under or a wet brain dependent on the government.
