Day 22. Feeling solid and content but not complacent, every day building and exploring my new daily routine to stay healthy and sober and improve my well being. Yesterday I tried a new thing…my two dogs are reactive to other dogs they don’t know and walking them is super stressful if we see other dogs. They feed off each others’ energy and I imagine mine as well. I’ve got all this time and have been feeling like I need more exercise so I took them on separate walks, double walk for me, and it was awesome! I want to do it everyday, but we will start with every other day, mostly because my neighborhood has some killer hills and I woke up with harsh shin splints! Stretching and yoga today. While I was drinking my anxiety was through the roof and I stopped walking them almost entirely. They deserve to have exercise and life beyond the backyard. It’s exciting to be making progress and trying new things with some confidence!
Day 58
Feeling pretty good this morning! Realized I need to start eating better since I have become sober. I seem to be eating a lot more junk then normal. I hope everyone has a great day!
Day 132.
Knowing I dont have anything to do and no schedule is becoming a problem. I’ve completely lost my motivation to do anything. Typically I’m normally not in my house for more than 4 hours of the day(besides sleep). So being stuck here 24/7 is really getting to me. I think once the weather gets better itll be a little different but that’s not happening for at least a few more days if not more. Trying to find simple activities to keep my daughter busy but none last very long. Today I plan to borrow my mothers mixer to make meringue cookies. So that will be something to do together(with my 3 dozen eggs I havent been eating a lot of). And my man decided we should watch the LOTRs trilogy start to finish bc hes never actually done that. Eh. Fun stuff
this is why I tell myself I can have a drink whenever I want, I just choose not to. If I ever thought I can’t then I probably would just to prove a point.
Day 150… 4 year old son was tested for covid 19 yesterday so now im quarantined. Hopefully it comes back negative soon. I’ll take the extra time off to hang out with my little best friend and hit my gym. Stay sober and sane friends.
Pray your son tested negative.
