Hey again all! Weird how it's nearly midnight here and nearly midday for so many of you!
I just have to tell y'all about today : I ran into an old druggie mate who owed me money, from not THAT long ago, and he abused the sit out of me, in public, and I fucking cried in the middle of a shop. Then he texted me and said he was going to tell my work that I used to use a needle, as before I asked him about the money we chatted superficially for a few minutes. Man, I felt punched in the gut. Then I got relly angry, as you do! Oh well, the BEAUTIFUL part of the story was about an hour later I realised the thought of a drink had NOT come into my head in those two BIG emotional moments - usually drinking would be the FIRST thing I would have done to rid myself of these awful feelings.
Anyhoo, me mate textd again about 8pm, EXTREMELY remorseful and sorry, and blamed (of course) his day 5 no drugs.......
SIGH. Thanks for being here for me to share that! It has pretty much all gone ( the bad buzz) - am SOOOOO grateful to still be sober!

Ok thanks Kap. Feeling a bit sort of 'lost', unsure, but otherwise fine. I know these feelings are just passing through, and that's ok...No drink temptations or anything.......

Morning lovely troopers!

Well done Kap! That is what I find- as soon as something unpleasant happens the thought of a can of beer presents itself in my mind. It's great Al did not get in- even for a nanosecond.

Bit late today I should have already left to get stuff for the shop- thats the problem with this sort of store, when you are not in it you are out stocking it up.

Still nevermind, lovely day here again.

I have caught the intervention addiction bug- watched Edwin and Betina this morning, any good alcohol suggestions? Saw Christy yesterday- some of them are really disturbing.
