Day 223.
āDoesnāt need a block heater,ā they said. āā¦synthetic oilā¦ ā¦German engineeringā¦ā they said. Turns out my poor little putt-putt is about as out of place in my clime as the earlier image of cowboy-hatted Menno and spiderman-suited Conor snowball-fighting while swimsuit-clad me and doggy look on (thank you for deep belly laughs, @Mno and @Conor689908!)
The day turned out just fine, thank you motor vehicles association membership. This time last year? The car situation would have been license to get an early start on uncorking a bottle. (I donāt actually need to drive just to get a boost, right?) Or worse, freaking out about dwindling supplies in the wine rack, and telling myself a trip in -40C (on foot for real? pathetically, in a cab?) to the liquor store is exactly what normies do. 
Good thing itās not last year. Another beauty sober day today instead.
We did it, and we can do it again tomorrow. I just know it.
Gānight all.

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 didnāt really āwantā to, I could just feel where the old habit was that I would have just gone with without thinking about it. Iām 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 friendsā¦ .
Then I went home on the bus. I had been asked to check on my housemate when I got in. Well he isnāt answering thatās fine. Hereās what I found thoughā¦in my sober living non smoking homeā¦ 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 vapeā¦the sixth isnāt 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)ā¦ well I donāt 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 selfā¦itās ok to put yourself first sometimes; you matter too. Ya you!!

Sorry your not sleeping at your sober living house. And I donāt mean to butt in butā¦ arenāt there some kind of consequences? I donāt know who is in charge there. But it sounds like they are being enabled. Itās not fair to you and the other people staying at the home. And itās not fair to them either. I know itās probably hard. I hope you can figure it out tomorrow. If they canāt follow the rules out they go!! Instead youāre out 
Doesnāt make since. Iām sure youāll figure it out. And donāt be such a nice guy. Your not doing them any favors. And I can tell itās frustrating you. Just my opinion. Love you man.

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!

- 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 Iām a bit apprehensive about it but I still think it will be fun. At least Iām in pretty good shape. And Iām sober and clean. Thinking now what a sad figure Iād 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.
@Fargesia_murielae Congrats!!! 18 months is awesome man.
@Ginge Welcome to your sobriety, the forum and to this thread Ginge! Glad to have you aboard. Life really is much better sober. hang with us and find out too. Success.
@I.cant.We.can Hope youāre getting some rest Brian. Thatās a shitty situation to be in. Success in dealing with it. I know youāll do it sober and clean. Hugs.

Day 371.so last night I went over to my friends across the street to his superbowl party. I needed to face this fear if I ever want to feel normal again. It went ok, I had a little anxiety and was shaking a little bit. But I talked to a couple ppl and got along well. Some super pretty girls, and itās hard for me being around pretty girls. And then I also feel like a goofball bc I never know how to talk to them, even in just a friend way. I never get noticed by them anyway which just makes me feel a little less confident and maybe not the greatest looking. But I just chalked it up as is what it is, eventually things will all fall into place and this will all keep getting easier. Alot of my old friends said they missed me and weāre proud of me. Which did feel good, I didnāt stay for to long. Idk much love
