Very happy for you @Joy!!! Congratulations on 90 days! You’ve been such an encouraging peer on this website for me and I appreciate you for that! Cheers to another 90 days.
Just checking into day 73. Have a great day all.
Thanks lol Maybe next I should make an estimated emoji evolution for next year, or maybe next coming month if Chrystal ball is too dim
Kick ass!!! Congratulations!
@Charlie_C Yep. Same boat. My husband is taking my youngest on a camping trip Fri-Mon. My 18yo will be at work most of the weekend. So no real adult supervision going on. Sad that I need it but that’s my reality. At 47 years old. My plan is to schedule things to do & to just have a plan. If I don’t decide ahead of time that I won’t be drinking I could easily relapse and no one but me would know. That secrecy is seductive. I have to be accountable to myself. That’s always been hard for me.
Ass kicked sir 🙋thanks!
Good morning all! Day 5 and grumpy as ever. Everything seems to be getting under my skin this morning. I am trying to remember it’s just me but it feels like I’m being tested, can I stay strong and not let myself give in to that oh so tempting drink when I get off work. I sure hope so. I dont want to have taken 5 steps forward only to take 5 giant steps backward.
I would recommend trying to put some plans in place for your evening even if it’s just to eat and spend some time reading on here. Hope is unfortunately not a strategy. Maybe check out the sunshine thread, there’s plenty of nice folk to spend the night chatting to on there.
@Jennie79 stay the course. The irritability won’t last forever! Don’t take the first drink & you’ll be good. Come here if you need support after work!
@ShadowFax sorry last night was so rough. Hoping tonight is much better. @Fireweed and @Deadman congrats on ONE YEAR!! So inspiring!! @Jane.c I flagged someone for the first time yesterday. I don’t think you should be too worried about it. Some things need to be flagged. Do what’s best for you though & take a break if you need one. @Joy congrats on 90 days!!
Congrats on One Year!!
To a great person and great friend Hanna @Fireweed, congratulations on a year! Aren’t we still doing pints of ice cream around here to celebrate 1 year? If so, I got one with your name on it for tonight! Make it a double for your sober twin Deadman.
2 pints of icecream, I could get onboard with that what flavour??
Hi oh yes good choice
Thanks dear Tom that banana split really warms my soft and yellow heart
I’m curious what sort of ice cream for deadman?
I’m definitely working on plans to keep busy this evening. I think I’m going to make my little go for a walk and play monploly with me lol which sadly for him will be torture. But I will need the distraction of bugging my pre-teen
Checking in day 193.
Only really a month to go. That’s awesome!
Fabulous!
