I&#8217;m to the point now where I know what my limits are and I stop at them if I even get that far. I bought a bottle of vodka this weekend and had planned on drinking the whole thing. I had 3 maybe 4 mixed drinks and then left it alone. I bought three 6 packs of beer and maybe had about 5 total. I will continue to fight that good fight.<\/p>\n<p>Last Wednesday, the Spidey sense went off a couple times. I have no control over either one of the reasons why it did, but they still bother me. It&#8217;s just the feeling that I may be &#8220;replaced&#8221; or something along those same lines that kind of bothers me. Maybe replaced is the wrong word. Maybe it&#8217;s the right word.<\/p>\n<p>I stay up pondering things that I have no control over. It&#8217;s not my decision. The &#8220;new&#8221; Eyan is learning to just accept that no matter HOW much I want something, I don&#8217;t always have control over the situation. I&#8217;m learning to just let things play out. \u00a0I&#8217;m a doer. I fix things. The fact that NOW I have to take a passive role in some things in my life is warring with the way I&#8217;ve been since 1986.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ma fight that good ass fight though. I owe it to myself. And what\/who I want is worth it. I&#8217;ll chill. I&#8217;ll be patient. I&#8217;ll make moves when I need to make them.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s all I can do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They are starting to creep back into my life.
