Just an update...
I got that job at Mountain Supply. I'm lead inside sales for an upscale showroom and I'm also cross-training in the supply house. Mountain Supply is a Montana based plumbing supply house with locations in Missoula, Bozeman and Billings.
I've been there 2.5 weeks and I really, really like it. Everybody is super nice and I'm meeting a lot of great people through it. Alexa, who is training me, and I get along really well and I'm enjoying her company. There's one gal who I could probably see myself hanging out with outside of work, Kate, so maybe I'll actually make a friend.
I'm truly happier than I have been in... probably years. For once, I'm just really OK with being myself and I'm making personal strides that I've never felt before.
I quit drinking during the weekdays, I'm on 2.5 weeks of it, straight! Fridays and Saturdays I've been drinking, but not to the extent that I have in the past. I was thinking that it would be tough for me to stop the pattern (which was quickly forming into an addiction) of drinking everynight, but it's been great!!
I also joined a gym and have been going for 1.5 mile walk/jogs on this path about 5 minutes away from my house. Everynight I do something- either go jog there (Cherry Creek), go to the gym or work out at home after my li'l hike.
I'm eating well. I haven't had a soda in 2.5 weeks either, just a ton of water and too much coffee in the mornings.
I'm actually sleeping at night. Like.. 7 hours of straight sleep, which is amazing. Sober sleep is soo freaking awesome, I can't remember the last time that I slept like this.
Still don't really have any friends here... working on it, just not really sure how to go about it. Hoping that my co-workers pull through or that I meet some folks through work.
I'm still completely OK with being alone. I keep so busy nowadays that it doesnt cross my mind until the weekends. Really, I'm just not willing to waste anymore of my time with guys that aren't worth it... and that feels awesome.
Things are just going really really well, and it's because I made it that way. I'm so damn proud of myself for the changes that I've made and for the dedication that I have to this new found self. I NEVER want to be the person that I was even a month ago.
I keep wanting to write a good, serious post, but I've got a lot of stuff to get done tonight. Just needed to remind myself that life is good :)
