Four Months Today
I forgot about the date until I looked at the calendar.
Today marks four months of sobriety.
I am in a bad mood today. Don't know why. Nobody knows it is four months. There is a lot of family stuff going on. Maybe it's to do with the wedding invitation to my brother's wedding that I got in the mail today. It's a whitish/cream coloured card with almost a goldy sheen and a black border around the left side which develops into a tree at the top. Anyway, it's simple and tasteful and very elegantly done. So I was trying to get this across to my mother on the phone and she goes: "god...black and white sounds like a funeral card. They will make a show of us!"..I guess this is one of those situations where all I can do is laugh...
I start my internship on Monday so that is a positive step.
Ah, I don't know. Is life meant to be so hard?

I'm going to retire to my room with candles, herbal tea and my book until I get my mood up a bit.
