Day 14 alcohol free. Feeling pretty good.
Hope everyone is doing ok 
Day 38 
Been sleeping terribly recently. Think it’s a combination of it being too hot and I just can’t seem to quieten my mind at the minute. But overall feeling good, i’m on my way to losing a stone, and had my first ever sober birthday party last weekend (well not first ever, but first since i started drinking…)! My friends are noticing that i’m much happier in myself and that i’m much more reliable and fun when sober, so that’s keeping me going. Just. So. TIRED.
Hope everyone else out there is doing good!
Wow, great work!! Always a pleasure following your journey!! 
Day 24 check in. Reflecting on things I no longer do since I’ve been off the booze: haven’t slurred, called anyone names, forgotten hours at a time, or made as many horrible decisions. I would spend money too genorously and regret it the next day…
Anyhow, reading here surely helps a ton so thanks everyone.
Journaling does help quite a bit. When I try to talk about it sometimes the words just don’t come out right…that’s when the journaling really helps. Just gotta get it out. 
Ya I remember the first day is always a little boring… hope today was better for you.
Day 4. Slept great. Feeling a little tired/disconnected/maybe a bit down today. It’s going to be a busy day at work as there is a major deadline due this week. I’m sure coffee will perk me up. Have a great day everyone!
Woooo congratulations on the wedding! When is the big day?
I’m getting married summer 2021 - we’re having the reception in a barn and doing a lot of the decorations ourselves, COVID combined with kicking the booze has meant i’ve spent so many hours decorating jars and deciding on flowers etc. i don’t even know who i am these days haha. So wedding planning is definitely a good way to keep busy!
Also congrats on the sober birthday 
Day 67 clean and sober. Have an amazing day everyone!!! 
ooh thank you i will give that a go
Checking in sober, Day 224 (32 weeks!) I’ve been working on restoring & repainting mom’s house for her (Step 9 amends), nearly done with the 2nd story of the front. I’ve replaced much of the clapboard and primed it yesterday. Today I’ll fishing painting the house and the shutters, then on to repairing the porch. It has been great therapy, lots of time to meditate on things and work on letting go of the “ghosts” of my childhood. Have a great day, everyone!!
It looks quintessentially New England and like you are doing a great job!!!
DAY 3
Really appreciating my mornings now that I actually sleep at night and don’t feel like crap. I have been struggling with cravings but I am determined to stay clean. I’m really proud of my 3 days actually and am excited to hit 1 week! Every morning I sit down with my coffee and I plan my day and the things I’m going to accomplish. I go on TS 1st thing to get myself in recovery mode. Today tho is cleaning and organizing the apartment. Thatll keep me busy. Hope everyone has a fantastic Tuesday
Oh man, Em; I’m so proud of you. 
Checking in this morning on day 687 and seeing everyone’s #s is just so inspiring and motivating. Everyone is kicking ass, facing life’s challenges head on, and rocking it!!
Specifically, @SoberWalker Claudia - congratulations on 700 days!!! I am so happy and excited for you. I am eager to reach this milestone myself! For whatever reason it seems like a giant milestone for me. And I guess it is, lol! it’s been so motivational to follow your journey!
Congratulations, everyone! Keep it going and stay strong!
- Life can be tough at times. My friend had a mammogram yesterday. She got the results yesterday and was already schedueled for tests and a biopsy. I am going with her tomorrow. My mind is racing on the words i will need for tomorrow. I keep telling myself one day at a time, for today we are taking a hike together, tomorrow will come soon enough. I think about how scared I am for her, and cannot imagine what she is feeling. Prayers are all I can offer, and even that makes me feel helpless. Yesterday, before all this went down, the big “L” word flowed out of my mouth. I never thought I would say it again in my life to a woman. I guess I am happy it came out, because I am affraid she will need a lot of love and compassion.
You’re such a good man, Scott. Sometimes just a hug and letting her know you’re not going anywhere.
