Awesome news on the offer. I know that stressor has been hanging over you for awhile. Glad to see a resolution and that you made it through sober. Well done.

I had one of those last week… I woke up absolutely convinced that had gotten absolutely drunk the night before. I was certainly relieved when I realised that it was, in fact, a dream.
But I really had to think about it !

Checking out. Bonne nuit.
I had a good day today, home office bc of an online training which was against my expectations really interesting. Then some workout which was really good and experimental Sauerkraut preparation.

Checking in on day 48.
Congratulations on 70 days, @Tommo. Your dog is adorable, by the way!
@Sunny11 the big 90! Great job!
@RosaCanDo, I’m sorry to hear your doggos aren’t feeling well.
@anon27760155 I’m sorry you weren’t able to get your meds. That’s very stressful. Be careful this weekend and remember that you’re much stronger than you may feel in any one moment.
@Truckinmonster21 I’m sorry for your loss.

Thank you, means a lot, it definitely feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders :raised_hands:t2:

I feel your pain, where I work we have a female resident who is 40 but has the mental age of about 10 after about 5 minutes in her company I’m at my wits end. She is so demanding with a certain amount of autism to add to the mix. The sad thing is her parents could have her at home and but don’t want the hassle so my heart goes out to you.

Checking in from my couch. Couple of days doing as little as possible and my middle aged back feels a little better.:blush: Its hard to lay around and feel productive, however I’m still praying and reading a couple zoom 12 step meetings. Talking to sober friends and family on the phone and using TS. Bless you all.

Checking in at day #77. Eleven full weeks! I remember those first Fridays when I didn’t know how I’d survive the weekend without wine. And now I didn’t even think about that until I saw the number. Then again, the days are a blur as I wait for the COVID test results in quarantine. Be well, all, and for those in our hemisphere, better to light a candle than curse the darkness.

So I wanted to do another check in and ask you guys if it’s normal to feel so out of control emotionally around 5 months? I feel like an emotional wreck and am wondering if PAWS might have something to do with it. Thanks you!

Check in two. Day 5. Level 51. Day 5 always sucks. Every time. No more days 1-5. Only days 6+. Trying not to beat myself up. Trying to squash cravings. If it was later, I would just go to bed. I am tired and grumpy. Quit Lit and a Ginger Beer (trying the faux-sugar Reed’s). I hope I like it. I usually hate all sugar substitutes (How can people get past the taste of that?) but the real deal is over 40 grams of sugar!
