Day 181
Lunchtime here, and have spent the morning reading articles for work and pretending to be intelligent and professional . Sitting still in my unheated house is blooming cold so I am going to take a walk to the shop and enjoy the winter sun.

Checking in on Day 72! Another weekend without alcohol or weed. Had a couple moments this weekend where I felt like it, but they were just dull urges, like echos from the past. I didn’t really “want” to, I could just feel where the old habit was that I would have just gone with without thinking about it. I’m glad I can see that, feel that, and just do something different now instead.

checking in at the end of day 387

Had an alright day. Normal routine in the a.m. prayers, gratitude, daily readings shower, coffee. Went to wayside for the day and relaxed and ate good food, laughed, listened to music, played cards. Vented a little bit. Texted with family and friends… .
Then I went home on the bus. I had been asked to check on my housemate when I got in. Well he isn’t answering that’s fine. Here’s what I found though…in my sober living non smoking home… one of them recently got hammered and smashed there vehicle, another is currently locked in his room more than likely drinking, another is smoking pot in his room and a fourth is smoking cigarettes. the fifth is working playing video games and smoking his vape…the sixth isn’t there he is on the front lines being put up at a hotel doing covid isolation for travellers returing to the country(bless his heart)… well I don’t handle conflict the greatest, especially at the end of a long day. So I called a cab and went back to the treatment center and am sleeping in their crisis bed tonight. They can help me deal with it tomorrow or the next day hopefully instead of me blowing up tonight.
God bless you all. &

P.s. /note to self…it’s ok to put yourself first sometimes; you matter too. Ya you!!

Sorry your not sleeping at your sober living house. And I don’t mean to butt in but… aren’t there some kind of consequences? I don’t know who is in charge there. But it sounds like they are being enabled. It’s not fair to you and the other people staying at the home. And it’s not fair to them either. I know it’s probably hard. I hope you can figure it out tomorrow. If they can’t follow the rules out they go!! Instead you’re out Doesn’t make since. I’m sure you’ll figure it out. And don’t be such a nice guy. Your not doing them any favors. And I can tell it’s frustrating you. Just my opinion. Love you man.

[Dazercat]

I also feel it’s a smart move you getting out of there. Collect your thoughts and deal with it tomorrow.

[I.cant.We.can]

If I have anything to say about it there will be consequences…and there are rules… it will be dealt with it just might take a day or two…one of them is already been reprimanded and is back at wayside and has been for almost two weeks now…since the truck incident…the rest just happened over the weekend and tonight at 11 pm and I didn’t want to make a scene… so we’ll deal with it ideally tomorrow. Thank you for the support @Dazercat love you too buddy hugs

Start of day 2 sober!

Chilling before I go to work and start the week.
Spent all day Sunday as usual with a hangover. Felt sluggish and awful! No more of them for me from now on. This weekend will be the test I think.

Oh wow, I know quite a few people to travel to Egypt regularly and they love it. Hope some sun, sea and sand give you a bit of a lift!

611. Second coffee. Slept pretty good. Still snowing a bit outside. Have to go out to work a night shift in a couple of hours. As a kid I used to love cycling on snow and ice. Now I’m a bit apprehensive about it but I still think it will be fun. At least I’m in pretty good shape. And I’m sober and clean. Thinking now what a sad figure I’d make if I was still drinking, alone at home, night after night under this curfew, downing a couple bottles of wine and some whisky for good measure too. Never again. Life is much better like this. Have as good a week as you can all. Clean and sober. Love from Luna and me.

     @I.cant.We.can Hope you’re getting some rest Brian. That’s a shitty situation to be in. Success in dealing with it. I know you’ll do it sober and clean. Hugs.
