Day 28 - Mumford and Sons - I Will Wait
Now I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So take my flesh
And fix my eyes
A tethered mind free from the lies
I'm glad that you've been dancing round the living room listening to 80's tracks. Doing fine Hun.
Day 29. Not feeling it today. In a bad mood. Did load of painting and that’s started me sneezing tonight. Just in a foul mood unfortunately. Might go to bed to get out of the haze.
“Stole a key
Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet
Took a car downtown and took what they offered me
To set me free”
Must be the weather today @Change. I’ve been in a stinker most of the day. Laughed a little bit deep down fighting it.
We are getting there. 30 Days tomorrow. 🙂
Cheers CJ. That gave me a little nudge. I went for a walk in the end. Listened to a Tobolosky Files podcast episode. He’s a great guy so he fills me with positivity.
Sorry it sent twice.
Here its 70mph winds and now heavy rain. Roll on Spring.. Summer!
Hope your mood is better? My turn. I'm fed up of the 70 mph force winds and the heavy rain. I need a blue sky and sunshine and a calm day. Its put me in a bad mood! Feel trapped in today!
I need a beach.. And seaside!
I’ve had a bit better day. Only the odd flip out for no real reason. Fitted a heavy heavy mirror to the wall and fit my fireplace to the wall so the lad can’t pull it down. Living room basically finished except for a light fitting. Plastered bits of the landing ready to paint it all now. Walked the dog in the driving rain and just smiled as it was driving at my back rather than in my face! Went upstairs and tucked my lad in again and gave him a kiss. Glad I’m inside now and got a roof over my head. 30 days done.

That's brilliant on your way to the 2nd month. Its day 141 now.. Next milestone is 150!
A year complete will be good eh? Xx
Well done on completing our first calendar month. Let’s go for number two and follow in ChasingRainbows footsteps.
CJ.
Cheers CJ. Been a long day. Just having a beer then bed. Gambling is going well but stopping smoking and eating healthy has gone to pot. Need to address these two things asap or I’m just swapping vices. It’s playing on my mind a bit.
A month without gambling is brilliant. You are doing well and making positive changes.
re: the healthy eating and smoking. Well, I think we should all aim for a balanced lifestyle, although 'a little bit of what you like does you good' - (except for gambling). Anyway we need to learn to hate the thought of gambling with a passion.
Be kind to yourself. The first few months of abstinence are the hardest.

Cheers Martin. Day 32. Another one chalked up. I’m slowly improving the smoking and bad eating situation. I’m keeping my mind occupied to not drift off.
