Damn Habits....

 

Like I thought, the city tore a strip off me.

 

Spent a ton maoney last night on things I really didn't need. Booze, taxi rides, ACDC tickets (I don't even like the band!), and restaurant food... would I love some control.

 

The only thing different this time was that when I recognized what I was doing was wrong, instead of getting down on myself, I saw an opportunity in the future for improvement. And by the end of night, instead of the fighting I usually end up doing with my friends, I was in a good mood and went to bed happy (but still pretty drunk). The attitude is changing, just not the habits.

 

Enjoying lots of water today, that's for sure... hitting the gym later on with a friend (I hope) and a birthday party tonight. Have a great weekend everyone!

I hear you!

I was thinking as I was weeding today, 

the bigger weeds are harder to pull

than smaller ones and it's easier

to get them out with diligance.

Same with habits!
