Wasn’t going to check-in until after 90 because I refuse to acknowledge milestones I’ve hit a million times. I’ll celebrate at a year. But caught this and thought of Cate @C_8

Day 19. Ugh I hate my apartment. Last ditch effort to escape my brother’s alcoholic hellhole I lived in for a year(2016/17). It’s now been 3 years here. Almost every tenant has changed, multiple times, out of 8 (besides us and 2 others before me). Two days ago I was out back smoking (around noon) and the across the hall neighbor walked by(with a stern face) and I said ‘hi’ and she was then followed by a police officer. I had just finished up and followed them into the building (we share the backdoor). I then saw them (her and the officer) taking belongings out of the apartment in the front. They’ve always been quite quiet but now tonight (2 days later) , as I was taking out some trash, I heard the man who has lived there, saying out the back window, “you’re so sexy”. I’m good at ignoring men. But as I was going inside he came out his backdoor and asked me to use my lighter. I let him, quickly, and then locked my door. My man’s not home yet, not that he’s the type to engage, but I just want to be out of here. We’ve talked about it enough, and have saved enough, but it’s just hard right now to find a good spot in our area. I feel like I’ve dealt with this type of situation too many times throughout my life. I can again, but now feel I shouldn’t have to. Grrrr. I grew up next to the projects. I dont want my daughter to grow up the same way
Day 56.
Glad to be on my way home. (Thanks a ton @Chiron and @Mno for the encouragement and perspective there. Much appreciated ) Took my time and a few detours out of the way - realized I’m not in a rush to get off the road and fill a wine glass, sigh!
Hotel for the night as the highway is dark, rainy, and full o’ deer!
Big love to all
@Jonachav123 am relieved for you…
@jjcarson92 i am intrigued!
@Thirdmonkey am so glad you have each other through this whole thing…
Good morning brother , we did it 30 days have a great day!
Be strong and patience💪
Day 2 Sober check in
Hey I’m also January 21 woo hoo
Day 1. Feel terrible
- Coffee. Project kitchen moving along nicely. Time to paint. First time in 20 years. Not looking forward to doing the ceiling but OK. I can do this. One stroke at a time. Sober and clean. Have a good day all! Love from my kitchen.
@Welljenelle You’re sober now. Make today count. Learn from what happened and move onward and upward. One day at a time is all we all can do. Success.
Mine too
Thanks.
Blessings and sobriety!
