I figured out the meetings I'm going to hit tonight and what the plan is (FOOD) for in between so that makes me feel better about my day.
A lazy day on the couch feels so different when you don't have a job. The guilt! Lol
I semi-adulted a little bit. I paid the parking tickets instead of contesting them. I found out since I never changed my car registration when I moved, they weren't going to dismiss them. It was only semi adulting though bc I put them on a credit card instead of my debit card.

I figured if I went to costco I could get a free lunch. No chance. They must wrap it up around 2. NO free demonstration food for me today. But that didn't stop me from spending way too much money. The fridge and freezer have been looking empty lately. So I did my quarterly stock up on food run. And after seeing weasel's sausage and pepper dish, I just had to buy the more sausage than you can eat in three months pack. Actually, I think it is 36 lengths 6 packs of six... one hot + one regular= 72. It's for the cook out, yeah... so when I run out of money in June, at least I'll have food, I wasn't going to buy 'meat' because I have all I need. But that sausage and peppers...
guess it's time to wrap it up...

Eating a bowl of split pea soup that I made in the crockpot today. I guess I'll have my cheeseburger tomorrow.
Watching the movie Everest. ...it's making me grateful for being home, comfy and warm. I have no desire to climb to a peak like that.

HAF, I put on my big-girl-in-the-kitchen pants for the first time not long ago and made split-pea soup in the slow cooker. It's delish, isn't it! I also thought "Everest" was done well, though the desire to climb escapes me. If you're interested, Jon Krakauer's book, "Into Thin Air," is exceptional.
Brynn, the beignet were divine. It's just that I didn't need to consume so many. That's my eating for the rest of the day. The little binge didn't exactly, uhm, agree with me.
Just finished "Amy." What a sad, sad story.

Ven I agree two times- " Amy" was very sad but very good.
And " into thin air" is one of my favourite books, I really love Krakauer's books.
" into the wild" was really good too.
I just drove to grab a coffee, the transcanada highway runs through my city and its right by my house so I drive on it everyday.
I was trying to turn onto it, just waiting at the corner for a break in traffic; but naturally its a very busy and fast road, so sometimes you gotta wait for a bit to get in.
Two drunk guys walked into the middle of the road stopping traffic both ways-waving their arms, all the cars didn't know what to do so it was kinda a mess.
Anyway, one of them comes running up to my car furious and and starts yelling at me " what are you? F1cking stupid? You stupid women don't know how to drive, I was making the cars stop so you could turn you f1cking idiot."
He scared me and almost made me cry
So I was supposed to drive out into 4 lanes of a freeway; because two drunk idiots stopped the traffic, and I was supposed to read their minds that it was for me to turn? What gentleman.....
I'm staying in the rest of the night.

Speaking of which; I just went for a walk along the river in the rain
so crazy to have rain instead of snow- it was a beautiful walk though, and the pathways were pretty much empty.
I found smart recovery meetings for almost everyday of the week here, I'll give it a whirl.
I like AA speaker meeting because I like listening to stories so maybe I'll check those out too.
I watched the movie " Amy" last night about Amy Winehouse, a perfect example of how alcohol kills- poor girl

Ireland: A Short History by Joseph Coohill, No Ordinary Women by Sinead McCoole, and When The Luck of The Irish Ran Out by David Lynch. Those are the three I read.
I have tried to understand the whole British/Northern Ireland/Ireland thing. It's just stunning to me how things happened the way they did. The IRA, Sinn Fein, and how N. Ireland is the UK. Amazing really.
The Sinead McCoole book was great. It was about female activists and revolutionaries.
