But at some point whilst we were waiting for the train home, I became really irritated and grumpy. My husband had had a few beers but that doesn't usually irritate me. He definitely wasn't drunk. I think maybe I'm tired and ill. I'm not bouncing back from this chest infection as quickly as I thought I would and I've been busier than ever recently and maybe this irritation is my body's way of telling me that I need to rest. My husband is watching tv in the living room even though it's really late. ... I think my irritation has driven a wedge between us tonight. I'm going to go to sleep and try to take it a bit easy tomorrow. The thing is.... the kids will wake me up early in the morning and I'll have to get their homework done with them and then do the grocery shopping and I'll get all that done before my husband even gets up. Because since I stopped drinking, I get up super early which is great but also means I end up doing loads of stuff around the house before he wakes. And I think that's adding to this irritation. But I think the main reason is because I'm ill. And I'm sorry this is so moany and blah ... as I said at the beginning, I'm irritating myself. But at least I'm sober and feeling real emotion and that's far better than being drunk and not knowing what's real and what's fake. Right, I'm going to sleep. Goodnight world.... hopefully I'll be a less irritated version of myself when I wake up. Love to everyone and 24 more for me please xxxx
My advice would be to have a sit down with him and just tell him how you are feeling. You might find that just getting it out helps you feel better. It also sounds like a lot of this is a struggle between accepting him for being a drinker/late sleeper and judging him for it because in reality, you judge yourself for the same behavior you perhaps used to do before getting sober? Just a thought. I would have a very hard time living with a partner who still drank and especially with one who slept in like that. I am up at 4:30 these days! I get it.
Could you make a deal with him next weekend that you do the grocery shopping and he does the homework? I find when I split things up with my husband I feel better and he actually feels like he is being a great parent as well (it boosts his confidence a lot.)
I hope you feel better today, mentally and physically.
Lastly- have you ever tried to Reiki an issue? You can write it down on a piece of paper, for example- resentment over husband drinking or sleeping in- and then Reiki it just like you would do a distance healing. You can even have a box of multiple issue that you Reiki.
Lots of love and light dear friend!!

Today is 11/11- a powerful day for manifesting your heart's desires!!
"11/11, referred to by some mystics as the Gateway time of the year when a doorway opens to the divine and our manifestation powers go into high gear. So of all days: Think only about what you want, and stop that pesky worrying! "
Here is an article with steps you can do to manifest:

24 more please
Good morning sober friends- I was up at 4:30 again and happy to start off the day with some beautiful silence. When my husband is also up early (he goes in 6 today) I put my earplugs in so that I feel like I am the only one awake in the house- it keeps me sane and balanced.
I did some Reiki on the boys after I got up and plan on reading for 30 minutes before they get up. I haven't been reading because I've been going to bed at 8:30 for the past week and I usually read in bed at night.
I am doing well with the food and lost any weight I had gained. I have been lifting less at the gym (I got tendinitis) and added 2 days of spinning plus one day of yoga. Not sure what I am going to do at the gym today but I will be taking the boys this morning. Then I work from 3-8:30.
Have a great Sunday everyone!!

Rapidly approaching 2 years and feeling better than ever!!!!!
Getting new TEETH soon so that’s FUN. The kind you can soak in a glass at night! Ha Ha!
Also a bunch of medical checkups just because I haven’t been good about going to the doctor for the last 10 years.
24 More is the Plan of the Day........
