Today was a much better day than it has been in a while.
I started with paperwork on my new job!
I now work at Hobby Lobby part time
What cooler job could I Find?
Anyway, I start tomorrow for orientation.
Today I also argued with Kroger to get my paycheck.
They now are two weeks behind to pay me.
I called the Union on them and probably will get payed tomorrow.
That was a dissapointment.
But, my house manager said it wasn't a problem to be behind on my rent.
For now I'm go0od.
I also started my seizure meds today which makes me feel so much better
Because I've been having myclonic seizures the last few days.
That has been very discouraging, but I'm feeling 100% better already.

Well, today is a new week-monday of course
Last week I had a pretty good job
This week is uncertain
I worked at the Kroger Deli for a week
then my background check came back
and they told me I have to clear that before I can come back
My manager is nice and wants to help me anyway possible
even giving me work at her house for extra cash.
However, I received my letter from the company
claiming every arrest, fine, charge, and violation of probation i ever had
I am not a felon.
I have a misdemeanor B for possesion of marijuana <2ounces
a drug conviction.
This strains me from getting better paying jobs now
also, I can't get any student loans for 7 years
I will probably always have that drug conviction on my criminal record
even when it's expunged, it still shows up.
So, I'm doing what I can today to find a new job
or see if Kroger will work with me at all.
I'm depressed a bit
considering on july 18th, I will owe rent again.
I've been living litterally on loose change for weeks
I am sleeping less and seem to be pretty anxious as well.
However, I am not moping around or giving up today.
I got out of the house
I got cleaned up really nice
and I will keep positive to find a new job.
It just seems that when I get sober
life is much harder, or it seems harder
because I have real life struggles again
I have not relapsed in the last month
which was not too hard considering where I live
and that when I live on my own
a sense of responsibility kicks in for survival
If I lived at my parent's house
that doesn't seem to happen
oh, well about Kroger
I've pretty much put it behind me now
I'll post more pictures of Denton tomorrow
As I will take some pictures of various Denton landmarks.
Bis naechsten zeit!

I now am employed at Kroger Deli
A wierd job for a vegetarian
oh well I have completed training
I probably go in this week some time
I also was promoted where I live
I temporarily have my own room
I live in the 2nd house with a total of 3 people
thats including me
I have been showing I can do my work here
I also carry the message to a homeless shelter in the Denton square.
It's really a positive place to live, for real
I can ride the bus all over, to work, to the mall, etc.
I like public transportation
especially since I have two suspensions on my license
and no car or auto insurance.
well love to those who need it
and safety for my parents while they travel
I'll put new pics up soon.

Hey today starts with early rise
I have an interview with Expresspersonnel
Then hopefully a job will be found
I am doing well today
I am prepared to work on my 12th step
The last step in my program
which entails sharing the message with others
I am feeling like I have a chance at sobriety
I also made some amends to people I harmed
That helps me feel more humble
Another day to progress!
