So, I found this picture from exactly one year ago. It inspired me so much. I was days away from a half marathon and in the best shape of my life… recovery, career, friends, family, God and my program. I was doing it all without a man. ( I say that because I have always had one ) So knowing that I can be a strong independent woman for the first time in my life is truly empowering. I have proof from many others it can be done and living proof that I can achieve this again. God has always met my needs. I see that today. My eyes are open to HIS possibilities for me… They are far more greater than I can imagine. One day at a time I am created out of experience, strength and hope. I have goals today. I cant trust my instincts again. I am walking through the pain instead of letting it paralyze me. I am growing on
a daily basis. I am wonderfully and fearfully made. I love myself today. I am a miracle and so are all of you.
484? That’s awesome. Proud of you. Your always so supportive and right there when your needed. Giving back has worked 4 u. I hope it just keeps getting better. Everyday

LETS GOOOO 
good fighter
Day 223 clean and sober today. I’m not healing right so they need to do another procedure. Was supposed to be back at work today but now it’s been moved to March 1st. Not being able to do much physically is really taking it’s toll on my back and it’s getting worse. I hope everyone has a wonderful day today, love you guys!!! 
Beautiful photo of you and your kiddos! You are such a independent strong woman!
@littlemisschatterbox…no sleep, I look like a zombie from walking dead… Going to work, we need to go in, sooo shorted staff in healthcare…but if I hit a wall I may be asleep in my car (with the heat on) by noon.
YES!!! 
Just getting ready to go to bed, sober as a judge, at the end of day 18. Goodnight all. 
@I.cant.We.can I just saw your response to my post so I apologize for the late post but man, you are a true hero and a fighter. Keep it up 
@AmyBeth Wow. I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you and him in my thoughts today. Stay strong friend.
@Mno It’s funny you mention a drinking dream because (I might be wrong) but I don’t think I’ve seen you post about a drinking dream at all recently, and I just had a really vivid one the other night. I haven’t had one in months but it had me feeling super anxious when I woke up. So annoying!
@Rockstar24777 Ugh I’m sorry to hear that Rob, I hope they get it figured out so you can heal up quick! Glad you’re keeping us updated 
@ProofOfLife That is a great picture, thanks for sharing! From reading your posts, it seems like you’re really killin’ it, keep up the good work 
Day 221 today for me, hope everyone has a great one 
- Checking in and out
Hope everyone has an awesome day!
Checking In, Day 27, one day at a time, boy this ain’t easy
Keep it up! Almost at a month, that’s awesome!
That is great! Disney princess! You’ll have to chew their food for them. Next level bird whisperer!
40 days today. 49 was the longest stretch and I’m nervously anticipating day 49. But sting minded this time
Thanks, Courtney. Only positive thoughts… 
Oh Rob… I’m so sorry you are going through all this stuff with your surgery. You’ve been so fearless and positive about everything, but it has to be taking a toll on you. Hang in there, dear pal - sending you light and strength and I hope you can get some good rest, at least, while this takes its time to heal. Hugs. Reach out whenever you need to - but no pressure either!
Yer still the best big bro. Ever. 
219 days. I’m officially into my personal best part of my journey. From this point on I have no reference to look back on and it’s somewhat of a freeing feeling. With a full toolbox and the ability to feel my feelings I can only get better. Some books I ordered came yesterday although they weren’t due to arrive for a week. I kinda took it as a sign from the universe to just keep going as I had a completely shit day yesterday. Odd question but I want to put it out there. How does one focus on being positive and manifesting positive without expectations?
Juggling appointments, work & personal obligations-pretty stressed. Keep getting headaches. But I’m not going to drink because that only makes it worse.just trying to stay afloat.
60 days. Today also happens to be my first sober birthday since 1994-ish. To celebrate, I will be smoking a pork shoulder for 20 hours (I am a meat smoker, slow and low baby!) until that bad boy falls apart he he.
Honestly, I haven’t felt to good in too many years count. I think once I got past 45 days I felt like a kid who learned how to ride a bicycle, except I learned how life really feels to be sober…and it’s all good.
You know your legacy is a failure when people from other countries are celebrating the exile of Trump.
Like hell they don’t even live here and can’t wait to see you go.
