The morning started with an early wake-up and a trip to the hairdresser. I love getting a fresh cut as you feel so much, fresher. This is my fellow’s second time in Scotland, with the first being the visit to . . . .

Woke up in an amazing mood and had a nice last day at work before my time off. Looking forward to the weekend and catching up with all the fellows. Spent some of the morning before work preparing the house . . . .

Spent the morning before work getting the house ready for my guest’s arrival. I am looking forward to the week ahead, one more day of work, then off for just over a week. The first of my guests arrives tomorrow . . . .

It feels fantastic to be naturally waking up at about 5.30/6 am every morning, your day feels much fuller, and you feel fresher throughout the day. Another busy morning working on some of the projects and this website, then getting . . . .

I had a better sleep last night as it was a lot cooler. Good morning working on website planning and learning a new feature that will allow me to manage social media easier. The sun broke through by the afternoon . . . .

Not the best of sleep, on/off sleeping due to the heat, even with a fan on most of the night. I did manage to get some sleep and had a nice catch-up with my Gran on the way to church. . . . .

Anxious start to the day as I did not know what to fully expect later on at the event. As I was anxious I spent the morning focusing on small tasks around the house and keeping busy, which worked and . . . .

My morning therapy session went very well, discussing about the week I have had and what is ahead of me next week. I talked about how I am anxious about an event I am attending tomorrow, not so much about . . . .

Woke up early this morning and had a better sleep, even though it is still quite hot at night. The daily routine is still in place, with another good day at work in the sun. At the AA meeting, I . . . .

The aftercare session was very interesting this evening, discussing the RET (Rational Emotive Therapy) Model and relating it back to the previous week’s topic, Acceptance. This reinforced in me why I need to do things differently in recovery. In addiction, . . . .

The weather has been amazing recently. Another good day at work in the sun and every day I am feeling more positive and forward-thinking in my position. It has taken me a little bit of time to adjust, and with . . . .

Normal Monday overall. Good weather, work went well and I am feeling more positivity within myself and my ability to do my job. I find it amazing what effects alcohol was having over me without me even realising it. Reading . . . .

Not a good start to the day. Had broken sleep all night due to the heat and woke up with a bad headache. Did not go to church as my headache was consuming me and I was knackered from no . . . .

A very productive day and it felt good! Started doing general house work, repotting plants and working on a few issues this website has been having. The weather has been amazing today, hot and sunny, so all morning I could . . . .

The day started off in my usual way of routine and going to work. But, then I was notified that a fellow from the castle has passed away. I had built a good friendship with this fellow. We spent time . . . .

Pleasant day today, good morning and work went well in the sun. AA meeting share was focused on helping other alcoholics, the strength of the AA 12-step program and focusing on one day at a time. The share made me . . . .

Feelings were up and down today. Just felt slightly depressed and down all day. The morning started off fine with working on the project, a few more items sold and posted and then a good start to work. All day . . . .
