ANYWAY......how is the training going? And things around the house....weren't you having a clean up?

Yeah, I always wanted to be a bloke. I wanted to be an expat and move to London when I was in my 20s, but cooler heads prevailed.
I find the direct approach is best. I've had to tone it down here, but that's for the best. A more sensitive approach is probably better than yelling at people.
The plan for this weekend is to hike with my fiance at her house, and then run and also ride. I keep my primary bike at her house.
My house needs a clean up and serious landscaping because the wedding will be at my house, and it fell into ruin when I was drinking.

No, I don't have that app
No, I don't have that app
I'm extraordinarily boring myself, compared to some action-Jackson's I've seen post over the past 2 yrs. I really like the focus that SR has. Us being here for a purpose.
I'd have made better friends if I was able to stay sober a lot earlier! Lol

Up early this morning, doing a secondary cleaning of my kitchen. Phase one was to get rid of all beer and vodka, which I did on Feb. 2. I went through my cabinets and I've found a ton of drinking stuff: I was a pretty serious drinker, even though I usually drank crap. Anyway, I have boxes of bloody mary mix, apple tini mix, bottles of martini mixer, etc. So today I'm going to get rid of that stuff.
A tougher problem is that I have a whole display cabinet of martini glasses, drinking glasses, schnapps glasses, most of which were gifts or souvies from prior relationships that have meaning for me. I don't know what to do with that yet.
I also have some wine glasses. I guess I'll need to keep that for the wedding, which will be in my backyard, but I really don't want the glasses around any more.

I need to throw out my empties at some point, I poured all the vodka down the sink but was too lazy to get rid of the bottles. Hearing them clinking is getting annoying.

Morning class. Day 35 here. I had to actually count the calendar days to figure out which day it was. Think I'll go by weeks now. Too lazy to remember days.
I'm tired and dispirited. The reality of my situation is really hitting home to me. The ache for my two oldest kids is so bad.
Been reading a bit here and there. Much loves to you all.
