Checking in daily to help maintain focus #7

Day 8. I had a good run in December but got super stressed over the holidays and preoccupied and I tripped. I wasn’t paying attention to my needs; I was spinning around in ideas of who I should be, where and what I should be. I forgot that it is one day at a time.

My commitment now is to stop when I need to stop and sit in my emotions. I also will communicate them more, with people I trust. Last, I will continue working on not trying to be everything to everyone. I don’t need to do that, and it distracts me from being healthy for myself.

Good to see you back here. Sorry you had a difficult time. I wish I knew you were struggling.

Strength, yes but it’s gonna end up driving me mad :joy:. Each time I put it back in the ashtray it’s like a mini me miracle but it’s an emotion I could do without TBH. She has stopped smoking in bed and has cut down a bit bc she doesn’t have anyone to smoke with most of the time but she did make me chuckle the other night, she was telling her sister that she couldn’t stop smoking bc she wouldn’t be able to sleep and would be in a bad mood all the time. :joy: :joy: :joy:. Yep it’s always the cure and never the problem.

I wanted to post the bingo call-out but it would only offend someone.

should be easy, I’ll just ask her not to leave one in the ashtray when she is out, it doesn’t bother me when she is here so she has no way of knowing but when it’s just me and the weed in the house it seems like good company :thinking:
