Today marks my 11th day at Back2Basics, and I’m starting to settle in. The days seem to fly by since I’m busy all day long. Today I woke up at 5:30am. When I was home using, I would just be going to sleep at that time. It’s nice to have structure, but I hate waking up so early. I’m starting to get back in the rhythm of life, and it feels good. When I was home, I remember not showering and sleeping as much as I should, and not doing anything to better myself. All I would do was watch TV, and be on the computer. The only time I left the house was to hustle for money or to score drugs. I would just wear sweatpants all the time. At B2B sometimes I feel like I can’t catch my breath, and that I’m always tired, but I know its going to take time to get adjusted. Last week I went to Moab in Utah, and although it was difficult physically I had a really good time. The red canyons and the arches were something I’ve never seen before. I’m grateful that I’m getting another opportunity to get clean, and that I’m so far away from home so I can’t use. I’m looking forward to my next six months here at B2B, and hopefully I can maintain this attitude.
