Day 11

I am feeling pretty good, whats nice is the compliments I am getting from friends (new ones) family and strangers what nice skin I have (and that being my business, ckin care, that means a lot to me) and those compliments alone today tell me that my body is healing.

That has to be mainy from the effects of alcohol which today is 30 off of.

I lost my job while in detox, for not being able to return in a timely manner, its a brutal world out there in the work world right now. But I now see I HATED that job, I was there only for the $ b.c it was GREAT, but thats it I was bullied by coworkes for not adding extra $ to peoples accounts (b.c we pooled it) it was ALL NIGHTS, I never saw my small daughter which equalled a lot of depression, I worked EVERY HOLIDAY etc.

I just got hired for a job in my industry, start on Monday, for a much lesser paying job and position, however the place is epanding in 2 months and the owner I spoke to (who has the same name as my aa sponsor btw, just interesting) started realising I could be an asset in many areas, especially when they expand, and said she would pay what ever it takes to keep someone good.

Ill just be happy to be back in the work force and yes I can ride my unemployment, like many poeople I know, but I am proud to say I only needed it for 2 weeks, no offense to those truly looking I was there as well a few years ago for about a year, but I want to be in the rnviroment I love, that I have worked so hard in and it will help me to get out of my head.

So thats today.

Congratulations on day 11.
It's a good feeling!
And good luck with the new job.
The name thing...there are no coincidences! It was meant to be. Follow your heart.
