I got very excited this morning because I managed to make my rent this month through some very strange coincidences and strokes of luck. I thought it would be a second month in arrears.
So, I'm a bit exhausted from dancing and singing my way through the day, and being a flying ninja assassin in Body Combat.
Praise the Lord, I'm all about that as I'm typing this: maybe everything will be okay.
Love to you all

24 More!
I work in an essential Public Safety Position for the Federal Government. What that means is that even though the government is shut down, I have to go to work everyday with no pay. My wife and I planned (and paid for) our first real vacation in 15 years and all Vacation is cancelled too. The trip in NON-REFUNDABLE as of this month.
So, for now I will be sucking my thumb and hoping for a quick resolution.
Suddenly after 13+ months I am wishing I had a drink but not going there.
Just feeling sorry for myself.

Well....I really wanted to drink tonight but I didn't. I had a sleep, ate pizza and had a bath. Most of the time being sober feels great but it really sucked today. I think I'm just feeling sorry for myself. I've not been well this week so not really felt comfortable in myself the last couple of days and a bit paranoid. Usually when I hit the wine. I dont tolerate discomfort well!!
I suppose it doesn't matter so long as I didn't drink. Didn't go out at all because I was worried I'd end up in the shop. I can't get used to how solid I feel one day and then how vulnerable I feel the next.
Thanks for reading. Love to you all. Tomorrow is a new day. Gabe x

And yes, there are so many emotions swirling and it is confusing.
But as you go to bed tonight you know that you made it through a tough week when you didn't feel well and you did it all without hitting the wine.
That's pretty amazing huh?

Gabe THAT is how you do it!
I know it feels rough but you did exactly the right thing. Recognised that you were vulnerable and acted. Sleep, food, a bath and staying at home safe. Tick tick tick tick.
The journey is up and down Gabe and your emotions could be all over the place for a few weeks yet but IT IS SO WORTH THE EFFORT!
Keep talking to us and dig deep when you need to and things will even out.
We are in this together Gabe never forget that ❤❤❤
