Day 12. Looking forward to this weekend as the temps are going down and it will feel more like autumn approaching. I love this time of year, even though my garden is winding down. I neglected it this season in my depressive state, anyway. Found out yesterday my old boy pup has a heart condition that will likely be the end of him, but with no way of knowing how long he has left. We’ve got a treatment plan to help prolong his life and try to keep him stable and comfortable and allow him to be as doggy a dog as possible with the time he has left. My baby turned 9 this year and we’ve had him since he was a month old. I thought we would have more time, we might still. Reflecting on the way things are now, I’m caught by how we are both in this life now taking it day by day, sometimes moment by moment, he in his existence on this earth and me in my sobriety and desire to truly live. We will keep taking it a day at a time and I’ll be present to spend time just enjoying being with my dog for as long as I can. I’m so grateful for him and his unconditional love.
WHERE???

Hi all, it’s just about time for me to get to bed, with my counter just about to roll over to 16 days. I’m so glad that I DON’T have to go to the factory tomorrow… still, I have a language lesson over the Internet at 7.30 AM, so I should get moving. I have every intention of having a sober weekend… I have work to do, yes, but even if that weren’t the case, I know that alcohol isn’t going to make me feel better about myself… quite the opposite (hard to imagine feeling worse about myself that I already do, but still).
So goodnight everyone… I hope that you all have a lovely and sober weekend.
is that actually made of gold?
Today is day 90 no alcohol!!! 73 days completely sober. I am absolutely giddy right now. Never thought I could make it this far.
Awe Nat I’m so sorry you are going through a painful break up. But as has been mentioned, you really do deserve better than that. You’ve worked so hard on your well being to get where you are now. I think you know that taking care of you is top priority. If you don’t take care of yourself first then what have you got? Those feeling you got are real and they probably do hurt. That’s kind of why we’re all here. None of us learned how to feel. God is on your side. And if God is with you no one can be against you. And you got all of us too.
Wow, 90 days! That is some going. Such an accomplishment, you must feel so proud. Well done you
Atta girl Jenna Way to be strong. Booze is everywhere it’s hard to escape from it. Glad you didn’t even have the urge. That’s awesome. Good for you.
Have a great weekend. Sounds great to be getting your own room again.
Good Morning.
Need to get off the weed because I’m turning into a dandelion.
Everything else is good.

Good night.
