We :green_heart: you, Fleur. I’ve struggled with the friendship aspect since I moved to a new place, whenever I met up with a new group I felt awkward and like things didn’t gel. It can be an alienating feeling. But I am glad you’re still going to socialize, it’s good to get out of the routine and home.

Fleur, I would have never thought you felt this way after watching how you interact with all of us. All I see is a beautiful, friendly, caring and selfless lady constantly helping others. There’s no doubt you would be missed around here if you disappeared. Stay strong my friend. Sending you a big hug. :hugs: :heart:

Day 130. Hanging on by a thread today. But I’m sober, and I will wake up sober in the morning. That just has to be enough for the day.

I was actually thinking about you yesterday. I was thinking I haven’t seen you around but then again I’ve been slacking in updating and catching up. Your defiantly not an outsider here. :yellow_heart:

That’s the most important. You are sober. Everything else will work itself out. :yellow_heart:

  1. Today took some flat out recovery work that I would have much preferred to avoid if it were left up to my own will. Told a coworker to do it himself. I may have been a little dickish about it, but that’s progress for me. I then told work to fuck off while I went skiing with my son. So, that kicked ass. Then I made that call to my sponsor to discuss all the BS that has been going on at work and the fuckup I had to make amends for at home.
    I feel at peace. All my problems aren’t solved but I can take what comes tomorrow. With a lotta help, of course.
    Thanks for showing up and sharing your joys and struggles today. :heart: :white_heart: :blue_heart:

Checking in (which is rare, but I lurk!) at the end of Day 82. Hmm, next week that devilish 90. I have been here a few times before, but never with obvious health reasons to keep it going. We shall see - another doc appt tomorrow for yet another issue. I swear, my body has been a mess since I QUIT drinking. Shouldn’t I feel better??! Ugh. Just ugh.

It takes time! The alternative certainly won’t help it. :yellow_heart:

It sucked! :laughing: But it built character. New lessons everyday!

:joy: I meant the skiing with your son. But I can relate to the work bit. I need to do that at my work.
