Good morning Lisa07. First of all congratulations!!! Don’t let anything get in the way of your recovery. I can relate to your frustration. Get the phone numbers of the ladies and call them just to chat and make that connection. You got this!!!

Slightly better frame of mind today. I don’t know. Thank you to some who reached out with some positive advice for me. Working on some “I” statements to share with my family. Would be a great night but husband is over at his sister’s house having a beer with their family. (Our houses are next door) They asked me to come. WTH. So. Here I am, in bed at 8pm reading here and watching YouTube, trying not to be annoyed. :expressionless::expressionless: But. I am not drinking. Not tonight.

Age is relative. Keep getting tattoos and dying your hair pink and you will stay forever young.

I have the same allergies you do. They are in the very early stages right now. Tree pollen is my worst reaction. Although I love Spring, the allergies make it a love hate relationship. I am sorry your daughter is having trouble, but at least trying different combinations you will arrive at one that works. It does not make it any easier. Hang in there.

100 days sober.

Well i hit triple digits again finally. The last time i managed to string this many days together was probably 2 years ago, and I’ve quit many times in those 2 years.

The biggest difference this time is that I’m working on my shit everyday, I’m accountable, and my sobriety is no secret to anyone that means anything to me. I’m in a much better place this time around (i think i caved at 158 days last time).

I drank last night. No one could’ve said anything to change my mind, thank you to those who reached back to me.
I appreciate the friends I’ve made here; I wish I had some like you IRL. I’ll keep in touch.

Happy Birthday to you, Buts. 52 is nothing, because you will live a long and sober life.

I am on day 108. Feeling happy. Maybe it is the pink cloud, maybe it is the daylight coming back.
