One of those days
One of those days
Am having one of those days today which I always relate to the movie 'clean and sober.'
Didn't get enough sleep last night and have recently started learning the piano. My teacher is lovely but I sort of struggled and got annoyed with with her. In the past I would stop, making a big speech about how sorry I was for my behaviour blah blah blah and explain how hard life can be for me as I am in recovery and tell her all my woes - even tho I just pay her to be my piano teacher.
But today I just reined myself in and tried to listen and be polite while my head raved.
I am laughing about it as the whole thing is totally crazy and this kinda of thing so reminds me that my alcoholism is about so much more than alcohol.
And I get a certain freedom in acknowledging it.

I remember one of my sponsors telling me that "we wear people out".
One one hand, it's good to hold it in, on the other hand, it's good to let it out.
I guess knowing when to share and when to refrain is a part of our growth.
Play a song for me.
