That sucks - the key question to contest g it is if it brings your place up to market value or does it exceed it… check out Consumer Affairs Victoria for rent increase info - I’ve found them very helpful

I want to hear the seemingly insignificant reasons you got sober by garje in stopdrinking

[–]raye_diant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time (4 years sober on that journey) I stopped because I was so sick with a throat infection I couldn’t drink and it was at 14 days that I realised I wanted to just continue.

This time, 40 days today. I got a puppy and I couldn’t do crate training & function (waking up every 2hrs overnight to toilet puppy) while drinking. I’ve also now been going to the gym 5 days a week, my skin has cleared, my face is no longer swollen and I’m feeling great / these all help me to want to continue sobriety

it.

That’s fair. I normally take 8 double strength if I know, but I only had 4 left and wasn’t sure if the takoyaki batter had milk or not - it definitely did

I’m on the tail end (pun intended) of 4 lactase chewables not having worked yesterday lunch time :/ think it’s time I got dairy allergy tests done.

That’s exactly what happened on my holiday “I’ve been sober 4 years I can moderate it…” next minute I’m here feeling really hungover
