its amazing the difference a month or so makes in recovery you dont notice things changing day to day or even week to week but from month to month you can really see how far you hav come. Health wise im great ive had the all clear on liver and kidneys my IBS seems to hav all but vanished my ulcer doesnt give me grief anymore and my stomock linning isnt leaking bile into my blood stream anymore either, my body is finaly processing protein properly as well and im able to eat meat again without it upsetting me which is great as that means my brain is finaly starting to function like it used too and my IQ is back into triple figures again plus my short term memory is coming back as well, so its all good..

life wise things are goign great as well, i'll be starting work experiance in 3 weeks time doing IT support round offices in devon for a big company as a way of easing me back into proper employment as its been almost 3 years since i held down a proper job, and then once ive finished that i might get offered a full time postion and if not the people that hav been helping me hav said that they will do everything they can to get me into work so i can hav my first pay check in time for xmas which will be great.. they hav fine tuned my CV and by only covering the last 11 years hav managed to cut it down to 3 pages, they said its the first time they have done a CV like it as i guess they dont get many people with a work history like mine..lol

Ive also met a lovely women its early days and we are starting out as just friends but hav both said we are interested in each other but want to take things slow, which im cool with as i was getting sick of sleeping around as it all seemed a bit pointless, the lovely thing with us is we jsut seem to get on really realy well ive only ever known one other woman that time seems to vanish with as one minute its 10pm outside and before you know it the sun is coming in round the curtains...lol and even though we say just friends the closeness and warmth is not the sort that just friends share its more like old married couple who have never passed the honeymoon stage.. And they do say the best relationships start out as just mates as the ones that start with just lust tend to burn out pretty quick and then theres nothing left..

so all in all im happy with my life and even happier to be sober as if i was still drinking or went back to drinking then everything i hav writern about above would vanish pretty damn quick....
