Day 10

A quick post typed on my phone in the bath. I am craving a drink. Not because I need it but it's my default response to a day like this, crazy busy, full of the unexpected, and leaving me juggling deadlines and feeling like I can't keep up. 

In the old days I would drink now to stop me stressing about it until tomorrow. In this brave new world I've scheduled out the next few days, tried to be nice to myself for not being in bed at 10, and done my best. 

I've done a lot today and I need to accept that I can't do everything at once. Deep breaths. Long drive tomorrow, early, so sleep is required.   

Have to confess I necked two AF beers tonight which helped just because my brain enjoyed the pattern. That's probably bad but it stopped me drinking real beer at least. 

I have a huge spot on my chin which annoys me as I thought going sober might finally stop the zits. Also, my appetite is back so my thought that I might finally get a bit slimmer appears to be buggered. 

A long tiring day tomorrow and I will need to work on the weekend. But in the morning I won't be drink driving, I will be alert, and I get several hours of audiobook time. It's not all bad.

Hello to Wendy and thanks for being my first commenter! I've tried to reply but not sure it's worked...will try again next time I sit in front of a real keyboard and screen.  

Day 10 over and out.
