    idi what an honest post , warts and all , i think we are both doing the same thing , telling it as it is. And isn’t that just great, my journal is a daily blog just like yours and i too feel i need to write something everyday whether good or bad after all were only human. I love alcohol too and whats the point in having one when we need a skinful to feel good. Onwards and upwards . ๐Ÿ™‚

    Day 24 and been into work for union meetings. Thoughts turned to gambling on way home and driving to a bookmakers 23 miles away. I thought it all through and how it would affect my life. Just one thought was i could lose ยฃ300 in 5-10 minutes and how long it takes me to earn ยฃ300 . I fed the good wolf.

    Hi idi i think in the past i over elaborated on things also, i made a decision the other week where what was happening was my heart was ruling my head. Once i stopped this and made the decision although i was still feeling guilty about it the right thing to do was done. Hope you have a lovely break away, you deserve it. ๐Ÿ™‚

    An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. โ€œA fight is going on inside me,โ€ he said to the boy.

    โ€œIt is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil โ€“ he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.โ€ He continued, โ€œThe other is good โ€“ he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you โ€“ and inside every other person, too.โ€

    The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, โ€œWhich wolf will win?โ€

    The old Cherokee simply replied, โ€œThe one you feed.โ€

    Hi idi thats a long list, only you can make alot of those things happen, you will get all of those things in time by doing what your doing now. We all feel miserable and down from time to time so thats normal. Onwards and upwards one day at a time. ๐Ÿ™‚
