Grumpy git
 

Hi all

I've been a bit naughty today
I'm in pain ...Arthritis in the spine and its flared up because of cold weather probably.
Suffice to say I have been a grumpy, miserable sod.
Used to use a pain killer didn't I...
Not any more
Mrs R's carer left in a huff think I spoiled her day
The lady in specsavers had it this morning
I don't think they like me anymore in Asda
Mrs R had it this afternoon
I'm not going out anywhere this evening and have retreated to my own space
I figure this is a norm under the circumstances and having a bad day here and there is to be expected I mean we can't walk around grinning at everyone permanently eh...
Still I didn't set out to be horrid it just sort of happened.
Gonna have to eat humble pie tomorrow ....
I turned into that cap n glasses wearing grumpy old git I vowed never to do ...Ha ha ha
It can only get better tomorrow
Stay safe
Best wishes
Dave

As you said in another post, "not every day is a diamond day".

In early sobriety, I had more than my fair (:)) share of bad moods and grumpy days. The further I went into recovery, self examination, and sober living, the further apart those days were.

Not all of my days are diamond days but my moods and my temperament have definitely evened out.

And, I have eaten quite a lot of humble pie...... :lmao

:grouphug:

And I thought all the grumpy old flat-cap wearing gits lived in Yorkshire. Well they all seemed to come from there when they used to shout angrily down the phone at me when I worked in a call centre haha

I've been grumpy today too. Just happens. Usually it'll start by something stupid...like my animals jumping on and off the bed at 5am this morning, then me tripping over the cat while cursing jumping animals, then forgetting to put the actual cup under the cone coffee maker...coffee everywhere, then realize while stirring smoothie (damn spinach was all stuck to the sides) that the truvia paper was stuck to the spoon and then blended into my smoothie...had to start over, then slow drivers to gym, crabby old lady (ok she was younger than I) took my place in exercise class (how dare she...) to the cop stopping literally in the middle of the highway, full stop...wtf? To my sick, hacking, whinning child....haha. I am so darn lucky that I have a life where I can even allow myself to get irritable over this crap.

Its good to be alive.

It's kind of weird when the mood rages start wearing off and you catch one coming on and think to yourself "Why on earth would I actually get upset over that?"

reads like ya were sober when ya laid yer head down.
it was a good day then. :)

Hi tomsteve
Yes I am sober. A good sober day achieved.
It's 21:06 have just awoken after a nap. (God that makes me sound old)
Mrs R made tea so all is good.
Relapse is not an option happy or grumpy
Thanks all for replies it is appreciated
