Day 3 of not drinking. I was feeling really today but instead of going to the bar I sat in my car and listened to some music to unwind before picking up my son. It felt relaxing

- Anyone notice their counter is off? I can’t fix it, I don’t know the year is all weird and everything. Anyway, so happy it is Friday. I’m pretty much done with school for the semester minus this weekend. I have a good feeling I am going to get a “B” in this dreadful math class I’m in. I’m ready for a good night of sleep. Happy Friday Eve all.

That’s fascinating.
I’m chained to Los Angeles like a fighting pit bull.
I long for hermitage. Getting away - far away- is like my one true life goal.

Sorry for the news, Cade. However it seems like your HP guided you to where you needed to be. Much love, buddy!
Hell yeah, buddy.
That’s the moral of the story.

60 days.
Took the day off to work on projects around the house. Made some great progress. Feeling good there.
I have been struggling a bit with running into the person my wife cheated with or his family members. Small town life sucks in some ways. Just constant reminders of past mistakes. I haven’t figured out how to work through it. Short of looking for jobs elsewhere. And being that we just bought a house it doesn’t seem likely that I will be moving anytime soon. Makes me crave a "normal " relationship without all the history.
Hope everyone is having a great evening!

D402. I just finished watching a movie called “I’m not here” (Amazon with J K Simmons). It was heartbreaking to say the least and it gives a glimpse into the life of a man who lost everything due to his lifelong battle with alcoholism. It reminded me of something I posted awhile back about looking into your 2 futures. One with alcohol and one without. Well this movie is a good snapshot of the future with. Stay strong.

Hi @Kammie, I told it my co workers. But not as an anouncement. But just 1 person at a time when it fits in the conversation. I was sober for 5 years before and in that period I told them I had a alcohol problem and that’s why I do not drink.
