No internet and staying sober and all that.

WOW!!! It's been a long time again. But I have a really good reason this time. We're in our new house and we don't have internet yet. Trying to get used to the new house payment and new bills before we go adding any extras. We're loving the house. Loving having someplace to call OURS. And we're making it homey. We still haven't gotten everything just the way we want it...but hay....we got the rest of our lives to do that.
I'm at my sisters right now so this is just gonna be a quick update.
Work still sucks ass...but hopefully that will be changing soon. Yes, I bid on new jobs again. Trying to go back to the mid afternoon shift since it will probably take me another twelve years to get a day shift. I bid on some that start at three in the afternoon and four in the afternoon, and two night jobs that are different from the job I do now. And I bid on one day job that I'm not holding my breath about getting. But I've noticed the past few months that I sleep alot better when its dark outside now. I guess its cause I'm older...who the hell knows. I just know I can stay up for three days cause I can't sleep, then finally crash and sleep all day and wake up at four or five in the afternoon, and the minute it starts getting dark outside I'm ready to go to bed again. So I think its in the best interest of my health to go to a different shift.
My best gay guy friend is NOT doing good at all. His HIV. His viral load is increasing in spite of the cocktail. His doc says if the meds haven't lowered his viral load in a couple of weeks, they're gonna up his doseage of things. So I've been kinna preparing myself. We knew for years, I've had so long to prepare...but I'm just not. And it still scares the shit out of me. Actually scares me a little more now.
I STAYED SOBER. I guess thats a really important tidbit of info for those that know me and know what it means when I say I want to drink. I wanted to so bad. And I didn't.
Thats all I'm gonna write for now. Gotta go hang with my sister and the kids for a while.
Love ya'll..
Snooches.
