Thanks a lot for your words… I now that I deserve more, after I realize that I throw my phone by accident in to the bathroom… I was thinking… Is this real??? I just get it back, I feel you a lot, I was feeling terrible becouse I was in a relation whit him for 3 years… So the most of the time he has with her, she relates with all the family, he finnaly talks to me and told me that we has sorry and she tried to kill her self twice… I dont know if it was true or not, and I dont really care, I know tha God have something better for me, and as you said Im lucky of not having kids or getting married to him a crazy, jelous, liar macho!

No sign😄.
He was a stray in the garden. He meowed a lot. I would say to the kids ā€œthe noisy cat is hereā€. And once we adopted him be kept meowing a lot if we went near where we kept his food.

I so sorry Noisy cat hasn’t come back. That happened to me with two kitties over the years. I used to make up different stories about where they’d gone, because you honestly never know with cats that started as strays. Sometimes they get wanderlust. Or have second homes…no joke! It’s hard when your heart gets wrapped up in a little creature and they become family. Hugs.

So glad you made it safe and sound, after getting a hotel room after all that! I, too, would have made that choice. Yikes. Your trip sounds a lot like my drives down to see my family in Kentucky, I did the drive solo a couple times pre-pandemic and it’s a haul at just about the same distance. Hope your tunes carried you and you had some good ā€œthinks.ā€ Best wishes for a smooth day tomorrow.

15 days. Today for some reason my problems seemed solvable. I guess my mind is hitting on all cylinders again.

Yeah, as he got bigger he started scrapping with the other cats nearby, he probably went off to find his own territory.

Day 298~ I was feeling a little bad earlier like I was being left out or didn’t fit in ( Kinda a long story)…but then saw this meme below and thought hmmm :thinking: well shit that’s true! Leave it to Rudolph. :joy: Anyways joking aside I’m always gonna be a giver and I’m coming to terms with the fact that’s not gonna change and some people, well some people are just assholes and suck. That’s all. I can either choose to dwell on it and really let it hurt and bother me or just keep being me and just know that some people don’t deserve my kindness and heart and move on. So that’s what I’m gonna do. I’m a sensitive soul, I always have been. I’m learning to except that’s who and how and I am and there’s nothing wrong with that; the only time something is wrong with that is when I allow the hurt from others actions control my emotions. I’m stronger than that and won’t allow the negativity in my life anymore. Being sober I literally discover and learn something new about myself each day. It’s truly a blessing and a gift I’m so thankful for. Sobriety is that one thing that I just know deep in my heart that is meant for me. I’m so grateful to MYSELF for making the change. Anyone struggling or new to the sober journey; just know YOU are worth, YOU can do this. ODAAT. :pray:t3:

Day 3. I have been addicted to alcohol and weed for a long time. Tried to give it up several times but somehow it persisted. I tried to give up alcohol with the help of weed but after a few days or weeks things went back to the way they were. I have to give up both. So I am doing it cold knuckle. One good thing that came out of this is that my wife really took care of me. She took me to a doctor and he prescribed me some medicines. I feel much better after the meds. Before the meds I was feeling horrible.

Day 814 :coffee:
Good morning! Seens like my mornings start earlier every day. Today at 5 :hugs: without my alarmclock!
Still remember my morning in my drinking days…
Couldn’t get out of bed and sometimes I called in sick because of my hangover. Bad days, bad memories.
My sober mornings are a great gift of being sober! And my new ink too! :wink: With my saved alcohol money I can tread myself on new ink. I have my 5th tattoo session for my full sleeve tattoo today. It costs loads of money, but I can afford it! :confetti_ball::facepunch:


Let’s make this day a good day, let’s make it a sober one. #gratefull

  1. Coffee. Day off. My place is more or less done for now. Sunrise looked very inviting. And even though it’s clouding over a bit I feel it’s high time for a little hike. Sober and clean. Have a good day all. Love from Amsterdam.

    @SoberWalker exactly the same here Claudia! Except for the ink that is :wink: Love yours though.
