Horrid Airbnb experience - Part 5

In part 4, M and I had filled up 7 bags of empty alcohol bottles and cans. Their content had all been drunk by B. It was time to find out exactly what happened from him

M. goes back upstairs to confront B.. I stand by the door to listen in. M. asked him what happened.

B.: ''I am so sorry mate, my car broke down. I could not go to work. I did not know what to do and it crashed on me and I got lost. Alcohol is horrible, mate. I want to change. I promise, I really do. It is just so hard.

He cries

M: You will be alright mate, you have to promise me that you are not going to drink anymore whilst you are in this house. It is time to take ownership of your life

B. I promise I won't. I am so sorry.

The pep talk keeps going. I decide to go to the kitchen to fix some food for B. He hadn't eaten all day and is still full of alcohol. I enter the room, drop the food. M. follows me out of the bedroom  and tells me.

M: Babe, this is bad. He cannot leave tonight. he is very sick. He hugged me and cried in my arms. He is very sick and still under influence. We called his mum but she was at work. We have to keep him one more night. I'll help him with his car tomorrow.

The night comes

We were welcomed by Lara and Jen who run the Canvas Café and the  Country Bumpkin Yurts  and Steven who is running a food growing project on site to support people with mental health issues. He is also involved in a number of projects in the area. I brought a projector from the  Leicester Hackspace , yet it was easily figured that a lovely conversation around a cup of tea was more appropriate. We received pertinent questions when it comes to trying to organise a repair café, the possible footfalls, how to mana...

Who are we seeking to become - Thx Seth

Seth Godin asked '' Who are we seeking to become '' in his new blog post today. The article resonated with me as I am doing a small experiment recording the time I spend on certain activities, pushing my boundaries to ultimately get a reward after spending a certain amount of time on them. My reward is an ultimate form of indulgence which not control can overtake my life... It is working - my mind is more focused, wanders less. The carrot is too appetizing for me to give to give up. I cannot actually wait to get it. In the long run, I will be transformed. My future self will thank for me for that. This is what I want each minute that passes...
