Hi Starts,

glad you got the keyboard ball rolling, was just about to. Wow, thsoe NF days are racking up!

I had yoga this morning, then got to work, try to bring the calmness with me, but something always gets my goat up.....just trying to not let this one get to me. I wish I could be one of those people who are more duck like...what I would give to just let everything roll off my back. Well, thats one of the many list of "qualities" that Im working...I am a walking list of such qualities that is being worked upon, have the red pen permanently attached...

Hi Neuro, I must say, when I was working I was MUCH more irritable than I am now..One thing I do now that I never did before, is to try and accept myself faults and all...so now instead of beating myself up for not being a certain way, I tell myself I am lovely just the way I am :-) Sometimes it works and sometimes not so well...sigh...

Hi Oney,

irritable, I hate to see me if I had any other vice to work on other than al. But isnt it good that somethign positive has come out of not working for a bit.

Red pen is out, I have just added super sensitive to me list....but able to have a good old laugh at myself too. I am also working on the loving myself just the way i am too, Im just trying to change old habits, not take things to heart, not overeact, be a nice person, try not to judge....the way I sound I'll be writing self help, enlightenment books in no time, not!

SO, yeah just having a laugh at my faults, warts n all.

Morning all.
The sky is blue, the sun is out and the wind is dying. Lets hope today is better than yesterday weather wise. Feeling positive and going to print some c.v's today and drop them off at hotels in the area. Dont really want to get back into the trade, but a job is a job at the moment, and its something I need to do to keep up my sobriety.
Can we all say a prayer or light a candle today for an absent friend who is going to court. This person has been having a difficult time, is a wonderfull soul and I do hope can use this episode to turn over a new page in life and sobriety. Thanks all.
Have a wicked(but not too wicked) day all. x

Morning troops!

Just a quickie from me as I'm in a rush this morning to get out. Off to an AA meeting at 11 this morning then I'm off to meet a mate from N/A to have a chat then off to an N/A meeting this evening. I decided after talking to a mate yesterday that the counseling I was intending to take on is not gonna work. I feel my counselor and I have too much in common and in our way of thinking and I feel it will hinder me more than anything. I'd see him more as a mate than a counselor and I don't feel I would be able to open up to him about certain things because of it. I've always seemed to care too much about what others think of me rather than think about myself. So I decided yesterday to start thinking of my own welfare and came to the conclusion over the counseling. I'm not giving up on counseling though but will take the route through my GP now and get a referral from him. Should take a good few weeks but at least it will give me some more time to speak to friends in and outside/away from the meetings.

Got an e-mail from my Aussie mate fickle explaining about the fires and how bad they are. I thought these were common occurrences in that part of the world but I had no idea just how out of control they were. It's the first bit of news I've actually sat up and took notice of for a couple of months at least. I stopped watching the news and reading the papers a while back when I was getting pissed off with constantly hearing about the credit crunch in this country!.

Anyway gotta rush and not even showered and dressed yet!

AND.........please do have a wicked day as Cym suggested!!!lol

Love and Happiness
Hips
