8, Eight, ate, 3 x 8 = 24.
Day Eight, feels good. I am off to visit some friends this morning, there network is riddled with virus's (virii?) . I have an interview for a new contract tomorrow, its exciting although I am nervous, I hate interviews.
I better go and get ready, boy it feels good especially in the morning, no hangover. I wake sleepy but otherwise ok.

nogard,
Best wishes with your interview tomorrow! Try not to be nervous and remember to BREATHE! Did you do any walking again today? Or just driving the bus? LOL. I helped my brother put together a plastic toolshed. Took about five hours of hard work but it's standing.
Love and hugs,
Eddie

Ediie, I will remember to breathe, talked to some friends today about interview techniques, one of them works at the company I am being interviewed by, so I think I am ready, only so nervous cos I mucked up with last two interviews, but then I would as I had a hangover of course!! So this will be different.

Double Digits
Day 10!!
I am smiling as I write this, it feels good, I am busy but focused and happier than I have been for years.
My interview was re-scheduled for Thurs so I get more time to prepare. Off to walk the dogs and do some work. Have a great day all of you and Eddie stop hanging out of the bus to try and catch Parrots

I did, Tobi and Rana send you a huge Lick eddie
Day 10. Its 5pm and so far;
<!--StartFragment -->Just got home from Melbourne its 4:3opm I have had a poop of a day. First had an arguemnet with the builder working on my house about money and work done so far, we came to an agreement just about.
Next, just slow going into and around Mel got to my job and they where not prepared, after 3.5 Hours I left and will have to go back and train them later, but at least I get paid for that,
Next Bank chasing me for being 1 day late with a payment! I guess that what comes of being weeks late cos Iwas always out of it.
Next, I need more work/money. At least this time I get angry rather than frightened and drunk.
Lastly I have had a rotten headache all day and felt very much like crawling inside of a bottle, but I didn't, in fact never even got close.
So I am home now, have fed the dogs taken all my herbs and some panadol for the headache, have lit a big fire and am writing this as I listen to the some gentle music. I am gradually feeling calmer.

P.S. Sorry you had a bad day! Sounds like you did a good job of taking care of yourself afterwards, though. Keep it up!

Hallehluyahhhh. I can't believe I made it to the end of the month.
I am actually feeling pretty good.
I was tested....SOOOO much this month. Why did everything have to happen the month I start my quitting??
My family gets the stomach flu...then I get the stomach flu. We have been totally broke as a joke. And I have been ultra clumsy getting all banged up. My boyfriend has worked alot of overtime..meaning I get no break from taking care of kid and puppy. The temperature has been up and over 100 degrees outside. And lots more things to test me...
I got a call from my brother and he is on the same path as me...quitting heroin the same day I quitted weed. And he is realizing that he has to quit weed too and all other drugs. He has tried quitting heroin in the past...but never quit the weed and pills. This time he is quitting everything and has a sponser. So his chances of staying sober and looking really good. And that makes me really happy and hopefull about my own recovery.
But I made it. It's day 31 for me...and maybe next month won't be as bad. I know I won't be a irritable.
So, everyone else..try and hang in there. I feel your pain and feel your victories too.
