Well done! Keep it going!!!
Thank you for this! It really means a lot. I wholeheartedly felt everything you said deep in my soul about good vs evil. Itās been a very scary place here and I can relate so much to what you said. I did decide now is time. Itās time for no more reasons, my feelings donāt get to decide that Iām drinking and Iām going to do this. I turn 40 in 12 days. And Iām going into it sober, come hell or high water! Lol.

Thank you for this. I sometimes take things too to heart. I was thinking I wasnāt able to he here until I got more time under my belt. I just keep failing and then I have such remorse that I donāt feel I belong anywhere because I just canāt do it. But thereās no more cants. No more excuses or feelings that give me a reason to drink. I know itās me that has the issue. I have severe anxiety and literally everything is a reason to drink for me. I understand your post now completely, no hard feelings.

First, Great job on 100 days. Second my prayers are with you and your family. I have found that it was/is a blessing to be sober through some of lifeās shitiest moments. It gave me the chance to help, grieve, be angry, be sad, and find joy in all of the days happenings.

Checking in at the end of day #47. Pretty good day really. I worked for a bit this morning. My husband was able to do a major, much needed repair to his vehicle. That is a big weight off my shoulders because I was constantly worried about his safety going to and from work. I feel good. Life is far from perfect and last week was definitely not great, but being sober at the end of it all makes it seem NOT that bad. I have this inner peace I have not had in about 15 years. I feel like myself again. Iām going to wind down with some tea and watch AFV. Goodnight TS folks.

Thank you. Youāre right about being sober through these moments. Itās hard not to want to numb the fear & anxiety, but must be clear headed. I know it would also make me feel worse in the long run.
I made it sober through dadās death, which Iām so thankful I did (and you were a part of that; you were one of the ones there for me last year, and I thank you for that)

Virual Hug on its way.
^^^^never a more truthful statement
So glad to hear/see this. Been thinking about you a hoping you would check back in. So we will celebrate together with some sparkling water in 11 days for my bday and we can celebrate together yours the next day. I guarantee I will be on here a lot for those days. I got through my 60th birthday which was my first sober birthday ever because of the folks here. I was pretty dang proud of myself. The day after your 40th bday when your still sober youāre going to be giving yourself the best gift and be proud so proud of yourself.
But for right now. We arenāt drinking today. Thatās all we got to do right now.

Thank you! Iām excited to start this week, Iāll keep you in mind!
Sounds like you really know your stuff. It is nice to chat with people from the industry, itās a special world. I get that everybody knowing your name, with the turnover in cooks you stay for longer then a couple months and youāre family.
The industry is a tough place for sobriety. Iām happy to see your here, I hope things are going well on your journey.
Thank you so much for your support. Iām just beginning to learn what sobriety means to me and being able to talk about it has been so powerful.
Iāll be around too, I guess pandemics have that effect 
Stay strong

Not humid like NYC. Our heat is thick and heavy dry type feeling.
