Yes please
Surely this is no help but Iām pissed of with your brothers too atm Iād almost like to suggest you go over there for a week or two and have this sorted. But I know itās not that simple eh.
Thanks Olivia, I appreciate that. Dunno if a week or a two would suffice, might need few months actually, lol.
- Busy day off. Took my road bike in for servicing, can get it back before the sop closes. Now I have to go to Amersfoort for group therapy. Making progress there, not in the least because of the input I get here discussing some of my issues. My second year of sobriety rocks! You all rock! Have as good a day as you all can. Sober and clean. Love from Amsterdam.
I agree with @Jennajen. I love the way you are with your words. The way I related was very funny in my mind.
Day 381. Awe itās a beautiful day fam, I had a awesome night with my girls. They make me laugh so much, I still try to figure out how to get through with them without yelling, it will always be a learning curve but Iām sober so itās all worth it. Last night trying to sleep, Iām laying there with my eyes closed⦠Mind is literally playing the hike with this girl, like actually climbing the mountain and laughing with her, and also i played a scene going snowboarding with her and what I would say and how I made her laugh and Iām sitting there smiling with my eyes closed like this is actually happening. Then Iāll catch myself and say thoughts and try to fall asleep, only to go on to practing deadlifts and squats in my mind. It took me a while to fall asleep. Idk if this is normal or not, but either way Iām gonna say itās a beautiful thing. Itās better then having negative thinking like before. Anyways I canāt wait to get home to my beautiful girls. And I hope you all have a wonderful day. Much love
just planned out a trip to scotland on tripadvisor As to whether itāll be ok to do so this summer weāll see but would be a good trip if we can
Day 251 clean and sober today. Spent yesterday with a childhood friend of mine who is dying from Lou Gehrigās disease, a disease that there is no cure for. Heās not sure how many months he has left to live and it was a really big reality check for what Iāve been going through. He told me to find my passion, whatever it is that brings me joy and happiness and to do that with all of my heart and Iāll be ok. Really humbling and made me very grateful to have him in my life after 35 years of not seeing each other. Have a great day everyone, love you guys!!!
Where does your friend work/live in Singapore, Charlie? It isnāt a huge place. Iām not saying Iāll know him, but itād be interesting to try to pin down a location.
Checking in at the end of day 46.
Not much to report again. Nice day in work teaching some great kids. Played football with some colleagues after work, but didnāt have a lot of energy. Struggled a bit. Getting old. Really ready for a good sleep now.
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Goodnight.
Day 96! T minus 4 days. Spring is setting in here in Holland⦠I feel grateful and am proud that I have managed it this far already. Wishing everyone a great day !
Hey all. Checking in on day 249. I think⦠the app counter says today is 248 but Iām 99% sure thatās what it said yesterday. I double checked my check-in post from yesterday morning and I also wrote 248 in that one.
So maybe the redesign of the app stalled the counter? Not sure. Either way, Iāll go with today being 249. Not much going on just trudging through winter and excited for spring to come (hopefully) soon.
I hope everyone has a good and safe day!
Same thing happened to me and I had to edit my counter time for some reason.
Day 164: Iām taking a bit of a break today. Rather than stay in bed (like I was sorely tempted to this morning) Iām going to hang out in the cozy basement doing laundry while I knit and watch my shows. Iāll take Lupe out for her walk when it warms up a bit, and itās a nice sunny day so far, so it will be good to get out and move around some. Feeling tired but content. Sending good vibes out to you today.
You are such a good brother to him and your sisters. Your recovery is still going to be priority, I think its a good plan to be selfish and let him move forward because he wants to. If I have learned anything, it is that nothing will happen unless I truly want it. He has to want it to make it happen.
Day 46! How the heck did I get to day 46?
Please feel free to unload away. Iām not in Texas but my kids are. They are ok. Iām so grateful for that. They are a bit cold and definitely have issues too. I hope yāall warm up and it gets better soon. Sending many prayers to Texas this week.
OMG!!! Iām so happy my feet are actually dancing (the rest of me is sitting down)!!
Not as good as @Conor689908 - but itās the best combo Iāve had for a while
Very true!!
⦠but I do like pretty combo numbers too
