Getting there can be tough........

Today has been not unlike any other Monday, I guess. I've been struggling with with a lot of things lately. Just everyday things like getting to work are a thing I do not look forward to. In the last ten years I've never had to worry about how long it would take to ride a bike across town just to get to work. This whole ordeal will be a great strength builder (mentally and physically...LOL) when it's done. I know that I can make it through and I also know it's not gonna be easy. I pray everyday for the patience to go through this. Once I save the money to get a drivers license I know my life will change for the better. My drivers license will cost a substantial amount of money to get reinstated. Right now I'm workin for a very small paycheck and I'm working in a field I don't know all that much about. I feel so frustrated sometimes that I just wanna tell the whole world to go away. But I can't. I don't wanna go back to that reclusive lifestyle I lived for so long, and if I do I would end up drunk again before too long. (and that's just not an option) I feel like I'm being held back and can't get up.
Well, I guess life is just tough sometimes. Things will happen that are out of my control and I just have to accept them and move on. So I guess I'm finished whining for now.
I know GOD has my back in everything I do. He will see me trough this and when I come out I will look back and say, "Whew, I did it!" Then I will thank GOD for giving my license back to me.
I thank Him every day for keeping me sober another day. That was a nightmare in it'self. I'm thankful for my little trailor and all my newfound friends, for my new lease on life because things could definitely be alot worse.

I'm still here.......

Well, I didn't drop off the planet. I've just been busy trying to hold myself together. I've been fighting depression as of late. I get depressed this time of year for some reason. Could be the cold, the holidays, the lonliness, who knows. Anywho, I would like to wish everyone a happy holiday season. I don't have much in the way of wisdom right now except I'm glad to be sober today. I thank GOD every day for one more day of sobriety.
i will see you all asap
