High Concentration of Symptoms today

I've been hearing a lot of internal chatter today coming from an unknown source. While external voices has been at a low in the last couple of days I found that internal voices are screaming at me telling me that I'm making the wrong moves in life. While I find this very unpleasant I am trying to not put any stock into what the voices are saying and "going with the flow" of things. Best not to wake a sleeping giant in the event I am over reacting to the situations. I had a new idea which I am going to run by a few people to see if any of them are interested. I am not sure what the result would be but I think it would be worth a shot. My girlfriend is getting out of work right around now and heading to my house soon so I cleaned the place up a bit. I'm hoping that we have a relaxing evening together but time will ultimately tell.

That's all for now

I Quit Quitting

  It's something I said to to a coworker back when I worked at a job last October. And it signaled a relapse for drinking alcohol that I'm still dealing with today. It's been nearly 10 months since I started drinking alcohol again… and it hasn't really done me any favors. While it did put me in good standing with everyone at the bar (sorta)… It put me in negative standing with every member of my family. Mainly My Wife, My Parents, and the cats. While Matchy and Ash understand that I have to go out and do a man's work… Hunting / Gathering… I don’t know if what I've been hunting and searching for has paid off. At the end of the day it really is just us in a room with the animals. I can't protect everyone… even if I tried to. People are going to make their own bed at the end of the day.   I'm not really sure why I am giving someone I know the book The Satanic Versus by Salman Rushdie. Personally I felt like it was a cursed book because once I started r...

A couple of weeks to reset.

Recently, I got a new job. When i went to put in my two weeks at my existing job management indicated that I didn't have to come in and could be discharged early if i wanted. So i said ok. I've had about 2 weeks off by this point and I start my new job on Monday the 28th. I'm looking forward to it.  While I've been off, I've been tending to things around the house and becoming more active. I've been able to go to the gym virtually any time i want... and the wife and I even took up Basketball today. I'm hoping that i can spend this fall / winter / spring getting my physical health in order while at the same time advancing my career. I am also working on Quitting smoking. Today is day 3 of 56 in the program. I'm expecting my sense of smell to improve sometime in the next 24 hours. Usually it kicks in between day 3 and day 5. It usually comes on suddenly and without warning. All of a sudden the smells of the room I'm in are overly amplified. Which can h...

A Productive Thursday

So, today marks 61 days since last smoking a cigarette. That's 5 days off of the Nicotine Replacement Therapy (Patches) and I haven't slipped. While this should be a major accomplishment for me, I'm just disappointed that this didn't take place back in 2021 when i initially started to attempt to quit smoking cigarettes. The Money saved over the last 4 years would have been tremendous and it likely would have prevent a whole slew of terrible things from happening over the last few years. Being addicted to Cigarettes is dangerous and the length that people go through to attempt to justify their addictions is ridiculous. Considering Cigarettes cost over $5,000 a year to be a pack a day smoker here in New England... i could have stood to keep the $20,000 that i spent on cigarettes over the last 4 years. What i am doing is finding that I'm having a bit less "Get up and go" and I'm also gaining weight at a rather shitty pace. I know that its just the "a...
