Oh Joost, lolā:woman_facepalming:
Day 22, I hear the squirrel chatting up my cat. The mockingbird bird is going through his litany of songs. The frog croaks complacently in the pond. A young buck stretches his neck to reach for new growth. The day begins.
Same in my little burg. Fortunately, yesterdayās protests were truly peaceful, and not marred by violence after sunset. We just reopened Friday from lockdown, and since then every place Iād want to go is closing because of the protests.
And most of my customers are in DC, right in the hardest hit areas. The ones who are trying to reopen are delaying until the unrest has passed, and the ones who remained open during the virus lockdown, closed out of caution. One called me yesterday and asked that we come get our machines, as their building was vandalized, and they donāt want to be responsible should something happen to them.
But I am sober, and thankfully so.
Itās been awhile since Iāve posted. Talked things through with my boyfriend who is also an alcoholic. Today we are both 3 weeks sober and feeling stronger than ever. Weāve been together almost a year and have had some wild drunken adventures. Turns out, our sober adventures are just as wild and fun!
Starting day 4. Feeling tired today but whatever. Iām not gonna get an energy drink and put pressure on myself to get going. In all reality Iām a stay at home mom and these days I get to make my own schedule. As soon as I donāt allow myself to rest and just be a little lazy, thatās when I start to search for something to give me a little pep in my step. I donāt need anything. The last few rounds of trying sobriety something different has happened, each time I reset my timer I reflect and learn something new instead of being upset and disappointed at myself. The world is a crazy place right now but for once my head and my heart are starting to feel calm. Have a wonderfully sober Tuesday everyone
Imma gonna be looking like a King crab with a white t-shirt as my skin cant get into the sun with my belly so i got one of the free tshirts next to beĆÆng totaly burned kids care factor 50 is my homey now
91 days today. I feel like shit, but life IS getting better.
I donāt wake up anymore worrying about how and when I can get āwellā. I AM WELL, even when times are difficult.
Much love to you all. If youāre struggling ever reach out to anybody and everybody you got. They might not tell you what you want to hear but theyāll remind you that youāre somebody they care about and need in their lives and thatās whatās truly important.
Day 16.13 => 164 days to 6 months sober
This morning shot out of a cannon.
I went for coffee and came back to find an inbox full of early morning meeting invites. 30 minute meetings galore.
Anywho, glad to be working in this environment.
Everyone have a great and Sober Tuesday!!!
Briella, this is what it is all about. Learning from our mistakes so we donāt make them again. The saying āwe will fail 100% of the time trying to change the pastā is so true. Great job getting back at it and getting the first 4 days under your belt!!!
I am going to add you to the 6 month crew that will be celebrating 6 mos. sobriety in November. You can see the approximate countdown in my postings (Day 16.13 => 164 days to 6 months sober). I send a shoutout on Fridays.
I was thinking how thankful I am to be sober too. I probably would be doing some crazy shit off my balcony otherwise
Since they broke windows and set my building on fire the other day, our whole first floor is now boarded up. Most of the buildings are now. They broke the windows in most of them.
I guess itās selfish of me to want sleep right now because the cause is so important. Iām just really tired.
Iāve always been of the mind that I support someoneās right to waive their arms, but this ends where my nose begins. If you were losing sleep due to shouting and chanting outside, thatās one thing. Losing sleep because you need to remain vigilant so as not to be incinerated is quite another.
Hey Conor
Glad to see your numbers buddy. Its ok if you donāt know what to do right now. As long as you stay sober, you give yourself the time and ability to figure out the rest. It will come. In the meantime just be kind to yourself and patient with yourself. The bad times WILL pass. I am proud of you. Know that weāre always here for you.
So proud of you for staying sober while battling the depression. Thatās a real challenge and youāre rising to it. Be proud of yourself.
Havent been on here in about a week or so. Missed you all Iām doing ok. Could be better but Iām managing. Lacking alot of motivation lately to get things done and be a productive human lol but maybe I needed the rest. Anyway, hope you all are doing well
Conor, glad for your numbers but hate to see you down.
Stay sober and let time take care of the rest.
You rock!!!
im truely screwed and thinking about binging liquor eventhough that was not my addiction.
A dear friend , aged 38 commited suĆÆcide and i just found out. He was sober for over 10 years and we facetimed less then a week ago.
I contacted my safe-guard and i cant even walk to the store anyway in my condition fysicly but tears are drowning my heart by this falling out of nothingā¦ no triggers, no problemsā¦ he just now is gone and i cant wrap my head arround it.
Weāve been thrue so much togetherā¦
Just needed to put it here couse imma gonna get nutsā¦ the neighbours are getting a baby today and are putting up balloonsā¦ the world just doesnt give a shit and spins the way it does.
But hƩ, thats the way the cookie crumbles huh??
