“duetschbaggery” I’m not sure if that’s a noun, adjective, pronoun, or some king of dangling participle… but I love it. You did nothing wrong in my mind. You can only blow sunshine up peoples asses for so long. Sometimes a “fuck you” is in order. The good news is that you didn’t piss on the floor and therefore aren’t incarcerated and spending the day in the clink!
Last nights concert with Jonathan Wilson, couldn’t have been any closer unless I was sitting on the stage. Had one very brief craving for whiskey as this was first show without since I can’t remember when! Amazingly I can recall every last detail. Hope everyone has a great day.
Day 9. Today is the day I take my weekly medicine that suppresses my overactive immune system.
It’s a noxious but necessary evil.
Super important to have structure to my weekend to avoid a relapse.
Thankful to wake up sober today.
I watched that movie last night. That was pretty powerful!!!
Thank you for your kind response, I really appreciate your message. I will keep on trying to stay sober 1 day at a time.
Checking in day 236
Update: literally 5 min after I posted this I got a phone call and I start tomorrow! Definitely feeling the love from my HP.
I’ve been stressing a ton about finding a job and what to do next with my life. Yesterday I went into a new shop that opened up near me and struck up a convo with the owner and he offered me a job on the spot. Asked me to email my availability and of course me being me I am totally stressed that I over complicated it. I put in the hours that would work 100% best for me but also said I can make it work of they need different coverage. Haven’t heard anything and am just thinking I screwed it up somehow. Ugh…completely overthinking this. Logically, this is the grand opening weekend and he hasnt even checked email and won’t until Monday. I am so uncomfortable sitting in uncertainty and trying not to obsess about this. Anyways long rant…hope everyone has a wonderful sober weekend!
Day 25, been in a blah mood the past few days but it seems to finally be lifting thank goodness! The sun is shining and I’m going to enjoy my Saturday.
@Charlie_C

Good Morning
I had breakfast at the marina with some friends here in Charleston. Heading downtown to visit with other friends. It was nice to eat outside at the marina. Took this photo on my way in.
Day 15
Checking in on day 101 today…man I cannot describe how grateful and accomplished I feel today. For some reason 100 days is hitting me a lot harder than 90 days did, just 10 short days ago. Sobriety has given me a new job, 15 pounds of much needed weight, a new place to live, better friendships, and much much more. I feel great, and yet I’m still eager and anxious to see what half a year will feel, and then a full year, wow. I’m almost a third of the way there, pushing hard and staying busy. There’s no doubt in my mind I will reach that 1 year mark, I just need to continue living 1 day at a time and it’s amazing how fast these milestones come.

Well done, amazing achievement
2 months today. Went to a wedding last night and didn’t drink. I was worried af first. Not going to lie, the wine and vodka tonics tempted me. But! I ended the night feeling very proud of myself. A lot of people at the wedding, including the groom and 2 couples I was sitting with were either drunk or high - or both. I left early, but had a great time. It felt really good to wake up this morning and remember all the details. On another note - it’s the weekend!
Absolutely sober is so much better!
Day 19 alcohol day 2 weed Just got home, I work with my Mrs and apparently, these are her words, I work with effing idiots, so that went down well. It made me hit the NA lager and she left a joint in the Ash tray. I really Mustn’t… Hope you all having a bearable day and I hope your partner isn’t an idiot.
I’m sorry to say, or maybe not but that gave me a good chuckle, thank you. Its amazing how rude people are isnt it. In all seriousness, bravo for your reaction, sometimes its necessary to show people there are consequences for their behavior. Thanks for sharing, I’m glad it’s not just me…
Checking in day 113 an the universe is one with me rn.my stars are definitely lined up in my favor…amen for that again…just amen…
Back on day 1 again. I am going to do better. I went to Vegas on August 17th and began drinking again.
I know I shouldn’t have put myself in that situation smh.
I am not going to beat myself up about it. I bought a journal today. I will write daily recording my feeling. I have never tried journaling hopefully it helps.
Peace and love everyone
