So I'm opening the restaurant by myself this morning. Imagine that-- trusting a drunken junkie with keys to the place, a cooler full of beer, and a register full of cash!

Wow.

Peace&Love,
jasper

And you're not those things at all, you're just a great guy that had his own set of struggles once, don't we all right!!????

You're amazing my friend, I am SO proud of you and I hope you have a wonderful day!!!!

Much love and support to you,
here for you anytime,
your friend,
Ash.

Hi Ash!

Yeah, everything went fine. Worked 10 hours, mostly by myself. Just drank a lot of coffee and had a couple snacks.

How are you?

Peace&Love,
jasper

Hey there jasper, you sound like your making it good . Work can be tough at these early stages of sobriety. I know it is for me . Good seeing you posting again.
 
For me, free time is worse. I've been off the last 3 days and I'm falling all over myself trying to stay busy. At least I have plenty of meetings to attend nearby. I tend to be a loner so when I have nothing to do I am alone with my thoughts-- all by myself in a very sketchy neighborhood! Fortunately, I have not had the desire to drink or use.

Hope you all are well and happy.

Peace&Love,
jasper

Well hello there dahhhlling!! ( said with a southern drawl, of which I have none of course ; )

I am doing well, thanks for asking. You sound a lot like me, used to being solo, but I can see how it could be a double edged sword when you are trying to keep busy and stay out of trouble. ; )

If you get bored come on here and post more, we're all here for you, and I love reading your posts tbh. You're doing so well and I hope you know that jasper!!

Much love and support,
your friend,
Ash.

Always delightful to hear from you, Ash. I'd be online more but I don't have a working computer at home. I'm at the library when I post. Maybe some day...
Right now the little bit of money I make is going towards paying fines. I really need to get a better job. I love where I work but I get very few hours. Working on that.

Hope you all are well and happy.

Peace&Love,
jasper

JK, I can relate. I used to buy weed off a neighbor and it doesn't help that a lot of times when I can smell him indulging in his own product. But I know if I get stoned and disinhibited I stand a pretty good chance of heading out to buy a liter of vodka and that's not going to end well. I'm a bit of homebody these days so it's good for me to get out to meetings to keep my headspace from becoming toxic.

Good morning Aihfl, You know it! But mostly I'm just trying to make people smile with my silliness; )
Hahaha that's not a word, but I don't care.

Hugs,
Ash.

What's up Jasper. Your doing great brotha. That's awesome that you quoted Rita Rudner. I love her. I love stand-up comedy so much. Been watching stand-up my whole life from Gallagher to Sinbad to Kevin Hart to Ron White. I've seen Gabriel Iglesias and George Carlin (right before he died) live on stage. Have a great night brother and congratulations on your success... you can do it!
