Congratulations!

@cwak Each time u get thru one of these times without booze, u will really consolidate skills and gain confidence. I have had a couple of lows and got thru them, now they are not so scary.

@anon60334405 I don’t think it was aimed at u at all. Ur usually pretty supportive and not arrogant at all. We all just say our chicken shit on here.

@I.cant.We.can Woo hoo! Super congratulations!

@Axsis Exciting but also nervous time! The rings are stunning!

@anon27760155 Beautiful! Like a meme!

@MagicILY Congratulations! And when sober u can work thru problems in a relationship much more easily.

@Ewok1904 Welcome! And 22 days is great!

I don’t ever really post here. Maybe I should, idk. I’m finishing off Day 60. Feel like I have tons of stuff whirling in my mind. Not sure if that’s good or bad. :crazy_face: My kiddo isn’t feeling good so last night was long with little sleep. Did some reading while trying to rock her to sleep. Sobriety books are really working my brain, kinda overwhelming. Or maybe it’s the tiredness. Or both. :woozy_face:

@DrkniteNZ That is amazing! You definitely earned it!

Day 159
Going to go for a jog for the first time in a few weeks, hopefully getting moving will get some endorphines going, and hopefully my lack of stamina won’t depress me too much!

Thank you all very very much for all the love today. Had a nice day. Pretty relaxing for the most part. Made pizza as planned and went to NA. Watching the football game with a few of the boys at Wayside.



God bless you all. :v: & :heart:

P.s. You are kind and capable. Ya you!!

Day 112. This week can suck it. I was walking Max this morning, and one of my neighbors had his dog off leash when we walked around the building. This dog came charging at us abs jumped on Max and was snarling and being really aggressive, so I snatched Max up and in the process got bit by that other dog. Broke the skin on my upper arm. It was all I could do not to lose it completely. I was furious, and my neighbor had the nerve to tell me not to yell at his dog. Nope, nope, nope. I calmed myself down just long enough to ask which apartment they live in before I took Max in so we could both calm down. When I stopped shaking, I went to urgent care to get checked out, and got a tetanus shot. When I got back, I took the bill to my neighbor’s apartment. I don’t want him to have to have the dog put down, but he needs to pay for my medical care, and he needs to keep his dog on a flipping leash.

I’m sober, but I am tired and stressed and cannot wait for a new week to begin. Come on, Sunday! I am more than ready for a quiet day and a chance to start fresh. Good night, y’all glorious, sober people.

@TSan, what a scary and aggravating experience! I am so sorry! Irresponsible dog owners are the WORST! Hope your arm heals well and the knucklehead takes responsibility for that bill. A better week ahead!

Congratulations on your 60 days. I hope the kiddo is on the mend.

If you ever need a pick me up for a milestone we love to cheer you on. And if it’s not a mile stone there’s a lot of people here to help out that have probably been where you are. Or are getting there.

60 days is a great milestone and milestones as great as they are can be tough for some reason. “Milestone Malady” And all you got going on with a sick kiddo and not much sleep. well…That was pretty tough.
I’m glad you’re here. Have a good read around and join in when you’re willing.
Again. Great job reaching 60 days. That’s HUGE :star2::star2::star2:
:pray:t2::heart:
