Had a Michelin star dinner overlooking a famous battlefield. Great food. A beautiful sunset. Strange feeling looking at those fields. Sober and clean. Love from Waterloo.
I had to look up where that is⌠I had no idea which country it is in⌠. Glad you enjoyed it
Thankyou lovely so pleased your feeling so positive. Have a great day. Hope to see you later at our zoom meeting xx
Lol, powdered matcha is the least instant thing u can imagine, there is a whole ceremony, whisking, turning the bowls a set amount this way, etc.
Edit - unless u were joking and I am just too dumb
And matcha ice-cream is big here, that is super yum!
How does it compare with loose leaf matcha?
Unfortunately as much as I love the concept of the ceremony of making tea.
I just donât have the patience!
It goes frothy and has a deep bitterness, but somehow creamy. I do like it. If u go to a festival at a shrine there is often a stall selling it. And it is not as formal as the proper âsadoâ which has far too much seiza (sitting formally on ur knees). Next time I get some Iâll put a pic up if I remember.
Checking in sober day 6.
8 k easy run .
Have a lovely day beautiful people on TS.
Maybe not 365 days sober, but being a presence here for 365 days is still an achievement to be proud of. Thatâs time youâve been learning and helping other people through your successes and your struggles. Glad youâre here!
Day 1212 cant Believe these numbers. Long time no check in but here I am with the best news and the biggest gift sobriety has given me. Little Theodor says hi from my tummy, Im becoming a mummy January 7th next year Loving life!
Sending you all lots of love
Sorry to hear youâre in a slump Mike, I hope you know you donât always have to be positive to post here. We all need people to help lift us up. We got you
Yes, this is absolutely it, we can focus so much on giving that we forget about receiving! Itâs all about balance
Mike, this place is here for the bad times as well as the good.
We all have periods where life stinks. Thatâs life.
Serenity prayer the fuck outta times like these!
Huge congratulations, what lovely news and a great scan picture too. Sending love and good wishes x
On the downturn of my emotional rollercoaster after a huge burst of happiness and gratitude over the last couple of days.
A quick check in on HALT and I put a big tick next to each one. So I had a snack, had a cry, made myself a cup of tea and now in a sofa nest watching Walker Texas Ranger. Today is a rest day.
Day 504. Some good news this morning, my local Buddhist Centre is reopening next week for meditation classes. The classes had become a big part of my recovery and development so Iâm excited and grateful to get back in the room surrounded with good openminded people.
Have a great day folks
Wonderful news!!
This was a total 100% fluke
Edit: Doh!
My Habit Tracker has arrived. Now I have to think of stuff to put in it, and then make a real good effort to do them
I forgot how my anxiety can get out of control over actually âdoing / completing thingsâ. Even just thinking about it.
431 days no cigarettes
375 days no alcohol
161 days no drugs
5 days no sugary snacks
One day at a time, life gets better.
How is the dissertation coming along? Hope youâre nearly there if not done already!
