Have you tried walking or jogging, I believe it helps with sleep. It’s fun as you can explore a different route every day, even getting lost could be part of the fun. I’ve found exercising indoors needs military discipline especially if one is on the lazy side. Go out, get fresh air, take in the scenery, walk hard and walk far and see the difference in your sleep pattern.
Blessings and sobriety!

I’m an hour away and my nerves got the best of me. Ive been crying silently so my Father doesn’t see. I accidently sent a text to my husband that was intended for my daughter. A text explaining how I’m feeling… " That my stomach is in my throat and I feel like I’m in line for the biggest roller coaster ever…" He responded HUH? Hope it all works out for you!
I wish more than I can express how bad I wouldnt have sent that to him. It just made me feel so damaged all over again. Like I am getting what I deserve… He has told me we will not be together again and has not communicated a word since I left treatment. But today of all days… he responded. He’s even talked someone else into meeting me with my kids when I arrive to pick them up. Years… all the things we’ve been through. And he is GONE in every way that counts. This is the sad reality of alcoholism.

Hey sweet Corin, I am sending you a hug. My heart is breaking for you right now.
Breath girl…
You are a good person who made mistakes. You are a human being who is working on those mistakes. Right now in this moment, you are a different person and so his he. Its ok to grieve what was lost. Dont worry about the text…really let that shit go.
Right now in this moment, you have so much future. You get to see your babies… sober. That is a wonderful gift. One you would be missing out of if you didnt choose to make changes. Regret of the past reminds us that we have a future purpose .
You are a good person, with a generous heart. Big Love to you today.

Day 130: Just shoveled a couple inches of heavy, wet snow. It was like a cleansing coat of paint to our landscape, and covers up some of the pain I was feeling when I saw my backyard and remnant reminders of my dog. Feeling a bit flat today. Going to take it moment by moment.
Sending love out to my TS friends.

Yes, yes… well said. Some of us ebb and flow in posting and others are rain-or-shine, but I’ve come to trust in the dynamic beauty of this. Each of us must walk our own path, but we can share parts of the journey - and that’s where the power of this thread lies.
And let me be clear: whether you show up on this thread or not in a few days, there’s gonna be a full-on block party for your 365 days!
Complete with DJ’ing from @DowntroddenGoat and @CapriciousCapricorn,
and catering from everyone on the foodies thread (that @ProofOfLife can please cook for me any day now, please? Not to complain about the other eats! 
)
Just sayin’. It’s a pretty big deal and I’m big time proud of you.
