I wonder how many people noticed my lack of counting skills this week?

Funny, everyone I speak to and see in person has been complimenting me on how much brighter and healthier I look and sound. Geez, wonder why that is? it's a reflection of how I feel, I know that for sure.

Pops took me to a nice meal last night, which...

I just to have a really good conversation with one of my best friends. We are both lucky to be alive thanks to our shenanigans during college, and him especially so having been involved in an accident that got heavy TV coverage given the fact he hit a city bus full of passengers, injuring 27 of 34 on board. He has been dry...

Okay, well happy to report that I'm still going strong 10 days.

The end of last week and this weekend were taken up by a trip that I had totally forgotten about. I went to Tampa for a buc's game, and a little gettaway of the water. That was Friday thru this morning. I got home at about 7am. Made it thru the weekend good...

No problem for the comment. I hope it helps! And hopefully your life change will help with that, too. (Good move on that, by the way). smile

I'm not actually studying anything at the moment. I'm a school teacher and was mourning the end of summer.

Day 7

One week, no booze. From the time I had my first drink, I haven't been able to say that. Everything is going great, for something that seemed an insurmountable task not too long ago, I'm happy that I'm so motivated to stand fast. It was just time.

I'm so pissed...I lost an item on ebay--a new tach for my bike--because I'm an idiot...

Day 6

Last wednesday was my last day on the sauce, and my last coke binge. Thank you everyone for the continued support.

Today has been awesome, my state of mind free of alcohol is something that I haven't felt since high school. My adult mind appreciates the solace and calm much more than my teenage hormonal mind as well I've noticed.

Keeping my place...

I can't believe how much I've been sleeping lately, but I think it's my body catching up for years of abuse. Not being fueled by last nights alcohol is a new concept for my body. It's great not being in survival mode at work--as in what can I do to stay awake and get through the day and back to the bar. Now...

When my ex quit drinking he substituted one addiction for another. He now owns 24 motorcycles. Or maybe it's 25...?

This weekend was great. Wakeboarding saturday and sunday pretty much all day. And my body is paying for it. I'm sore in places I didn't know muscles existed, but I guess that means it was a workout.

I went out Saturday to a very cool cafe/courtyard type place. It was beautiful, an open courtyard with stone tables and benches, lighted trees, and great...

Friday at last, this weekend should be good. I think I'll do a couple projects I've been wanting to get done, clean like crazy, and relax. Fun, I know.

I'm quitting drugs and alcohol, so while there will be a lack of tales of my debauchery--at least I'll be alive.

I've been having a problem with smoking too much weed, drinking WAY to much, and...

Good for you! It's not easy, but stick it out & you'll be glad. It's hard to drink guiness while negotiating an off camber decreasing radius turn, so ride that bike lots. Works for me!

Stay off the white pony!!! The only horse you should ride is that sexy, fast Italian one who's getting her own room.

Someone want to tell me why we have four sets a day? I'm confused.

I have some things going on right now that I'm coming to terms with, but I'm feeling a little writers block setting in today. I'll get back to this.

Less serious...I figured out how to add a second patio door to my screened porch. The side that faces the parking lot....

Wednesday already? Not complaining by any means.

Just seems like time goes too fast these days. I wish I had more time to slow down and spend more time with friends and family. More time at home, but more time away as well. I guess it's probably a product of my lonliness, which comes and goes also. Self discovery is an interesting process, but a...

Back to the old grind!!!

Today will be hella busy, but I'm one of those types that can't take too much vacation without feeling like I'm loosing touch with my work. So back in the saddle and trying to get as much done as possible and get back in the game.

The weekend was awesome, friday I got absolutely loaded with my business partners. It's...
