Sun is shining, it’s wonderful weather. Kids are still home because of Pollen, but I’ve talked to the school nurse, and their teachers and they’ll be allowed back in school tomorrow. Even if they’ve still got symptoms, because we’re sure it’s pollen. Counting the days until summer holiday when we don’t have to go up early every day. It’s 12 school days left for us.
Still sober, day 3. Didn’t start the day with Champagne breakfast out in the sun, and no lunch cocktail planned either. Been spending the morning on here with Iced Coffee and banana bread instead. And now I’m about to do some garden work. I’m at home everyday as a housewife because my husband is away Sunday-Friday as a roadworker. Wishing all of you a wonderful day.
@Dolse71 should be 30 for you today congrats man…
Day 113 I really think the memorial day weekend really had me in my funk along with the friends thing, but I made it through and now I come back feeling good and strong back to normal. I really do feel so much more clear and different thinking after shit like that. As much as I hate coming back to work I’m grateful. Going to take it easy after work today and get a nice jog and then a small recovery ride in. Hope everyone has a good Tuesday
11 days 11 hours sober but yesterday I almost came so so close to drinking we went to visit my dad yesterday and when we turned up mel asked my dad for a roll up cig…we both quit together the smoking and she dont drink when I dont drink well atleast for abit untill i get going…when she said she wanted a cig I felt she was having a law for one and a law for another it wasnt right she dont want me to drink she gets mad when I crave yet she can have a cig so I thought balls I’ll have a drink…but I like been sober I feel so healthy and drink has a bad affect on me the hangovers are horrendous so i just kept telling myself that and i didn’t drink but i still want to it’s so bloody frustrating but addiction is…i got myself some fresh pink lemonade for if i crave again tonight hope it helps peace out xx
Well done not giving in Alice! Addiction sees it chance whenever it sees a chance… Surviving an urge like this will make it easier withstanding it the next time it happens so yay you! One day and one urge at a time friend.
This is the strength we all gather in our journey to sobriety. Otherwise we stay in bad relationships since we are too drunk, tired, and emotionally empty to change. I am glad you’ve found happiness. It is what this struggle is all about.

Stood up with more pain, but i keep winning my battles against the man with the hammer .
I finaly exepted the part to change what you can’t endure , and more important… endure what you can’t change.
There will be nasty days ahead but imma gonna make the best of it. Thats all i can do and driving myself crazy isnt helpfull.
I realised that i should be as Nice to myself as i mostly want to be towards others so decided to cut myself some slack. I try to come @ peace with my phisical condition and ordered a little gift for myself as a reward or act of kindness to get some positivity in my mind.
Guess thats my check in for now.
Before i forget, @Mno how’s your back then ? Any improvement so far?
@anon60334405
Glad you were able to pull out of that funk fairly quickly. Loss of relationships and change are a hard part of this journey. Keep your spirits up, you are doing the right thing.
213… 7 months! It’s been hard at times but worth the battle, i get caught up thinking about the future and failing in the moment sometimes. My brain knows it cannot trick me into drinking today so it bargains for decades down the road. That shit is dangerous if you let it continue on. @Clarity. Stop using Klonopin, that shit is no joke. It brought my mom to what she is today and trust me, you don’t want any part of that. One day at a time. @CapriciousCapricorn I’m sorry you’re struggling, just remember it’s okay to have a bad day, or week… it will pass @Mno im glad your back is starting to feel better. @anon60334405 im glad you made it through the weekend bud. Holidays are tough for lots of us.
Red about the painkillers but didnt read anything about improvement.
