What is your outlet for irritating days?
Nooooooooooo did you choose the wrong color or did it just come out wrong?!! Ugh I hate it when hairdye goes wrong. This site is lifesaving for me. I love it. I've never really been able to talk about my alcoholism to anyone because not a lot of people want to hear it. I can relate so much to what others are talking about and are not embarrassed to write in about their issues.

That's awesome! Congrats on the smoking as well. Quitting that is no joke. Next on my list hopefully. I watch those National Geographic prison specials from time to time. You should see the stuff those guys come up with in the places that don't allow free weights and they are in crazy shape. Maybe it sounds dumb but I've been looking at it like Rocky IV which is pretty easy given the winter we have both been having. We are the underdog training in rough conditions etc. Hey whatever we've gotta do right? It's great to have the balance too between this and the creative stuff.
Ok that is crazy, I always think of Rocky!!!! It's burnt in my brain since childhood. I was thinking that I want to start running the 5 km runs and work up to a half marathon. I will definitely check out the prison specials! I love trying different workouts to try different muscle groups.

In all seriousness, I find one of the benefits of having been through addiction is it helps to put life's little annoyances in perspective. I remember standing outside at night, drunk, wondering whether I would ever stop. I remember checking my eyes for signs of jaundice, wondering when my liver would give out, and contemplating all I would miss out on, especially seeing my daughter grow up.
When I reflect on that, suddenly the traffic jam in front of me doesn't seem like such a big deal.
