Good you are back. Hang in!
Checking in on day 36 on this beautiful summer day. Have a great sober Sunday you lovely people
Feeling just like you. Proud and thankful to be sober. Iām remembering what its like to feel, see and hear things from a normal state of mind. I still have a bit of lingering alcoholic reactions of my mind, but with the new clarity I can stop and think before I react, saving myself from embarrassing actions. I havenāt gone to any drunken parties or situations in a long time. But I totally understand what you feel. Enjoy your sunshine. Have a great day.
Yeah all that sounds pretty crazy. But your still sober and feeling good about yourself and thatās important. Keep fighting for your sobriety.
Good for you. There is no need to put yourself in a bad spot if you donāt need to. I hope your hubby
@Phoenixfighter @anon35096624 @Fargesia_murielae Thanks for your responses. I REALLY want to start going to meetings but my brother is immunocompromised and I am staying with him and my mom right now. Our internet really sucks so an online meeting
might not work. I will read some Annie Grace tomorrow. That really helped me in the past. As for coming cleanā¦ ugh idk I HATE disappointing my mom. Her brother (my uncle) just died of alcoholism back in January.
Day 20 Iām so greatful for the zoom meeting last night I love my ts family so much you guys really help me push forward to become the person I want to be. I had a lovely lay in this morning my daughter wants to take the dogs to the woods later and then over to the river I love being outside especially as the sun is shining. Hope everyone is keeping safe. Sending you all lots of love x
It may disappoint her, but if you really want to help yourself and your family you should be honest. Then you are more accountable. You have to make the tough choices to keep yourself honest. AA statesā¦ To thine own self be true. You have to take the lead in being your own moral compass. If you really want to help yourself, make the decision to be comfortable being uncomfortable . You can do this. Youāll thank yourself for the rest of your life
Day 228 morning check in
Today I will meet up with my biological dad again, looking forward to it. He really is trying to be a better dad, and he is pretty successful at that.
Life is what you make it my friend! Get out and find the excitement.
I hope you can get back on the ice soon! Fingers crossed
aināt that the way though, we walk around all happy and smug with ourselves and no one gets it and then when people arenāt acting happy like we are itās like whatās your problem. Thatās what and why we are all here for though bc we do get it and I for one am very proud of you.
It just takes a little time to realise we are not the centre of the universe and we are not that important to everyone, as long as we act important to the people that think we are.
Well done for keep trying.
What a blessing to get away from humidity for awhile AND be with family!!! Enjoy!!!
How was your flight?
meetings meetings meetings, Iāve finally learnt Iāve got to put some effort into my sobriety, Iāve got to do things Iām not at all happy with but one thing I am sure of is its better than the alternative.
Sounds like life will be much more peaceful without the family gatherings. Glad your husband is more aware of his drinking, hopefully he will find the blessing of sobriety. Either wayā¦well done on YOUR sobriety and 50 days!!! Sounds like that was a great reminder of what sobriety offers.
Thank you
Iām not a fan of family gatherings at all. But itās like mandatory, family is everything to the gypsy culture. Iāve just got to that point where I prefer the peace that comes without it. Iāll still meet the family just not alla at once, and no big gatherings.
Hi guys I hope you are all well. Iām just checking in for the 1st time in a long while. Have a great day
