  1. I’m going to start my check in with a little bit of a moan today but it’s just a quick one… If anyone here is by any chance in the passionfruit delivery business, whatever it is you’re doing with the passionfruits, could you please stop? Honestly - 2 weeks that sorbets been off now, I’m getting a little tired of it. Right that’s that sorted… I’ve returned in full force to the kitchen for my penultimate day of employment! I rose this morning out of my crustacean induced soul coma with a slight pain down my kidneys but alert and ready to dance the merry dance for two more days. I posted recently that I’ll be taking the whole of September off and damn I’m looking forward to it! I cant wait to wake up on Thursday morning knowing that I’ll no longer have to drag myself out of bed to dodge stupid questions being shot at me all day long as if they were fired by snipers using bollocks for ammunition; no longer have to wake up everyday wondering why the hell I am putting up with this idiot-crap for a paycheck, no longer being judged by people who have less knowledge than me and finally not having to worry about not having questions answered by line managers who pop off at the beginning of their shift for a little kip because Julie bought them a few shots of amaretto for staying open a little bit longer last night so that Alan could finish his 9th pint in peace. Everytime I free myself from something I dont want to do I bring myself closer to doing the things I do want to do and theres very little that feels better than that :slight_smile:

  1. The anxiety is beginning to set in and my sober brain is acting like my alcoholic brain. I just realized yesterday that our flight does NOT fly into Capri (which is where we begin our trip) it goes into Florence. How I did not catch this months ago is beyond me but now I’m stuck six days until we leave reorganizing our plans :weary: not to mention I’ve never been gone from home this long…ever. and haven’t slept anywhere but my own bed my entire six months and some change of being sober. I also haven’t been away from my emotional support dog either. Just a ton of anxiety when I know it will all be ok, just feels more like work than an actual vacation deep breaths have a good Tuesday, beauts

End of day 15. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone on this forum. It’s been a rough few days but I’ve been hitting the forum up a lot and attending meetings and it’s really helped. Even just reading other people’s posts without commenting has been helpful.

So thanks to all my sober fam. Hope you all have a great Tuesday

Really struggling to stay in the moment today.
My mind is on tomorrow and it’s kind of making me nauseated.
Tomorrow I’m putting on a suit and going into court to have my warrant recalled. This means I will more than likely have to post bail and that will cost a considerable amount of money.
The judge will also set a court date for my hearing tomorrow, so this really is the beginning of my legal fallout.

Send help. :pray:
