More sobriety
Well, I think there is a problem with google's blogger. I can't seem to figure out how to upload pictures. I follow the directions but they don't seem to jive. I'll figure it out given enough time. Tomorrow all my efforts are going to pay off, I have a job interview. Back to work soon! I guess I've been on a recovery hiatus. My last relapse was quite a trip. Had a mini intervention pulled on me last August and mine wasn't quite as sweet as the ones you see on TV. I was going to go to the hospital or to a shelter, these were the options I was given. I opted for the hospital can't remember precise details, but I was admitted into the ER and then from there upstairs to Lodging Plus. That's Fairview Riverside's substance abuse inpatient treatment program, I guess insurance companies have been able to cut treatment programs back to 21 days rather than the old 28 day programs. Fairview Riverside is a nice place to go through treatment, good food and freedom. I liked it there. Something about it made staying sober pretty easy and I guess it's kind comforting in some way. I was in Mark and Judy's group along with about seven other guys. I's a place where you get to cry on other peoples shoulders and hear others with the same basic stories. I liked the fact that there were female addicts in the same program, I like being around girls, always have, but the older I get the fewer women I get to socialize with? The truth is, most of us are fucked up. I've been in substance abuse treatment programs five times, not really my choice, I just get pushed in.I need a little break, I'll be back in a few!
