Checking in daily to maintain focus #20

It’s like you’re telling my story…I can so relate to how you’ve described yourself. The best part about being sober is learning about ourselves again, or even for the first time, and accepting aspects that we didn’t value for whatever reason. Introverts are awesome, btw!

Checkin day 46 (I believe!). Thanks @Dazercat for getting me back on. I have not been well the last several days, but after my scope today I finally have some answers as to why I’ve been feeling so crummy all these years, and yes, alcohol was a part unfortunately. I’m feeling so much more positive and hopeful knowing that there are things I can do to feel better now. Pretty sleepy from the anesthesia today but I’ll be back in tomorrow with more details. I love you guys!! You rock! :white_heart::heart::yellow_heart:

woke up to a cold wet rainy day… It’s Saturday. It’s a long week end where I live for our Grand Final Football day… Our state loves the game so much we get a public holiday on the Friday of the weekend of the grand final match lol. Not much to do today. I had a cheeky sleep in till 11am. I got up at 6 then went back to bed because of the rain. I will jump in the shower and then head out for my lake walk… I do really enjoy walking In the rain. Definitely a favorite past time lol… Singing in the rain even lol… I think Walter, the tree out my window is pretty stoked that it’s raining today, he was probably thirsty so he’s loving the rain too lol. :joy: :evergreen_tree:

And also here in Australia, those who use h are dying here in the past few years there has been bad phases where it was all cut with it unknowingly. Lots of people dying. It’s so sad.

Late check in lol day 133 clean and sober today. Work was good today, a little sore but that’s awesome. They were having a company bbq after work today but I passed. I didn’t feel like drinking but I didn’t feel like being around it so I left lol and went grocery shopping. I’m working tomorrow to finish what I didn’t get done today and hopefully it won’t take all day. Faith and I are hoping to go away for the night tomorrow night and spend some time together. Dang I really love her with all of my heart. She’s precious to me and I am so grateful for every moment we get to spend together. Anyway, have a great night everyone, I love you guys a lot!!! :sunglasses::metal:t2:

I’ve gotta get back into the routine of checking in daily because my emotions are going unchecked. I’ve been waking up daily in a funk, lazy, unmotivated, binge eating then dealing with feelings of guilt afterwards. Putting in bare minimum hours work wise… just kinda reverting to old behavior when I was drinking. And I’ve been having the thoughts about drinking, thoughts cycling into my head that I could control drinking because I’ve gone so long without it… I’m watching people look like they’re having so much fun while connecting over drinks. Just romanticizing. I know one things for sure, it’s time to recalibrate my focus. I don’t like where I’m headed mentally. Sigh. Going to get back to daily journaling and gonna try to get back into blowing off steam at the gym. Just venting.
