Quick update, to cold outside to open the pool, 16 +C, the sun is no longer out amd there’ll be no breakfast brownies because we’re out of milk to. Small things to get annoyed for I know. But at this time it seems like the small things is extra annoying.
And everyone’s still asleep except for me.
Up and down we go Sophia. Sorry for the annoying stuff. We make do and make the best of it. Without any stupid boozing involved. Hope your day gets better. Hugs.
The rain missed us again last night. It’s been 3 weeks. Really need it. Another extreme heat warning with humidex. Such extreme weather here 
from frigid in winter to sweltering. I’ll take the freezing temps over this humidity lol
Just noticed a couple days ago that I got the badge that says I’ve been on TS for a year and visited every day. Then I look at my days and feel shame, sadness for not having 365 days sober. But I’m still here. Still working on it. So I’ll focus on that. And the total number of days sober are still pretty high. So that’s great. My mindset & thinking has changed a lot since being here, so that’s a plus, considering I joined with the intent of a very short sobriety goal. What a year it’s been indeed. So thankful for this community 
Day 14.
Wish I had something to share this morning,sometimes I feel boring:smiley:But better than drunk or High!!TGIF STAY SAFE AND SOBER 
I am on day 33 and still happily sober. I had a VERY stressful trigger situation last night, multiple factors involved. I was appalled how far I allowed my broken alcoholic thinking to bring my thought pattern back to the old self sabotage excuses to drink. Very sad. I know it was just words and thoughts but it depressed me that I even thought that way. Happily and luckily I was brought back to reality by the simple fact that a reminder went off on my phone. My daughter needed to be picked up from a friends house. Not normally a big deal but it was the very first day I have been able to drive in 5 and 1/2 years. Sobriety being the key since I have an interlock device installed. For people from other countries that might not know what that is, That’s a device that makes you take breathelizers to start your car and random tests at anytime while your driving. A great reason to stay sober. Having the freedom to drive and be helpful is something most people take for granted until it’s gone. Like most things and people in life, we tend to forget how important it is to be thankful for what we have. Like our family and friends and the great souls that roam this app. So thank you all, because my thoughts went to the fact that I can express my feelings without judgement and know that I have a place to turn to in my moments of weakness and stress. You all are great. Sorry this is so long. 
Happy Friday, everyone!! Checking in sober, Day 185!
43.28 days. Though I feel lazy and low on motivation, I got a lot done for work yesterday. I’m glad I didn’t give in to the temptation to sit on my ass which is all I want to do lately.
My heart is so full with my kids. My 14-year-old did a live Instagram last night and asked me to join. She asks everyday, but I’m usually asleep. So glad I caught it last night. For some reason her friends love me and find me hilarious. It’s nice that she digs that and is not embarrassed. I’m very insecure about our relationship, so when she invites me into her life, it means the absolute world to me 
@Fargesia_murielae day 14 sober !!! Thank you for your support this past days. I hope to reach the month
@Girlinterrupted your post gave joy! I am so happy to see your child relationship with you is going better 
Hey, glad to read this. I’ve been actually thinking about the same things these days : reducing screen time on social media. I realized I always got that feeling of “I didn’t do enough” in my day, but when I observe myself I pickup my phone every… 15 min? I don’t know really, but I check it too often from FB to instagram to TS and all my other apps for no reason. I think I’ll start to do only one time the morning, one time at lunch maybe and somewhere at night not too close to bedtime. I’m gonna start there because now it’s way too much. Great job on day 158 now. I had to restart my counter last week-end. But it just confirmed that I just can’t drink. I still can’t tell myself that I won’t drink forever. But I want to make the test of sobriety. See what I can become without drinking for a long period of time. Still going to take this one day at a time, but I told all my closest friends and family. I’ll have support this time (considering lasts times I wasn’t really telling people, or just saying I was doing a challenge).
I still managed somehow to keep my runnings I’m on day 23 of running everyday 
how are the ride-hike? anyways good day!
@MrsOdh Damn in Montreal yesterday and today is feeling 42C outside 
everybody’s chasing pools haha!
That’s unfair. We bought a mini pool a few weeks ago because back then we had a few days with around +27 C. And all pools where out, so that’s was the only one we could get. Looking back I’m really happy that we didn’t spend a fortune, because we haven’t really being able to use it.
And looking at the weather forecast it doesn’t seem like we’ll be either.
it’s never boring waking up sober or going to bed sober, we’re just happy your here.
All the other parts of the day are fucking boring though 
here we go again buddy. Well done. I think I’m only one day ahead again. Keep it going 
Starting Day 4!
I feel so good compared to days ago.
Did a really tough indoor rocking climbing workout yesterday and killed it!
The brain fog is beginning to lift and I can do more. Hoping the sleep gets better soon.
indoor rock climbing? sounds fun and a great workout.
im on day 7
my energy level when i first wake up is the 1st thing i notice. i love it
my sleep is good but today is the second day in a row i woke up thinking i used the day be4. that always happens to me.
once i fully wake up out of my sleep i can bring myself back to earth and re assure myself it didnt happen. its just been the obbsession over so many years that gets me thinking like that.
today i feel good
i hope you have a amazing day today
That’s almost a week, keep up the good work matt
12am tomorrow morning will be my full week!
thanky you dutchy
I had the same issue with waking up the first couple of weeks after I stopped drinking. I would wake up feeling so hungover and thinking I’d gotten hammered the night before even though it had been days or weeks since I touched alcohol. It would go away after a few minutes just like you. So weird. I’m on day 26 sober today and that has finally stopped happening
I dropped FB and I don’t watch tv. I just read headlines on my phone app. Too crazy
