I'd forgotten that....I think I wrote the trading of one time of day for the other. That feels so early on in my sobriety now!
Well, it's early Monday morning here and instead of relaxed I can feel the tension from work already. Last week was horrific work-wise and some pretty unprofessional reactions from senior managers. There's going to be fallout this week, which will be intense. I'm not happy there, but I'm delaying the change as moving house was enough for me for a while.
Nonetheless, my neck is aching from tension. But, I feel ok, no desire to drink at all, which is great. Had a funny moment on the weekend where I saw ashtrays at a store and wished I could go home and have a cigarette. Just out of the blue. (I haven't smoked for over a year!). So Addictive Voice can float in any time!
Sounds like everyone had an ok weekend. With all the drama it still feels good to fit in a full day, no hangover!
