Hi congrats on Day 3/1. I as well am an ex-smoker and the nicorette gum really helped me in the beginning. Have you tried and smoking cessation products for support? It helps me a lot. Knitting sounds like a great hobby to stay busy and gift others. Iāve been wanting to learn for years. Maybe all check out some YouTube videos this weekend for inspiration.
Keep goingā¦congrats on being a Godmother thats exciting. See you around. One day at a time!

Day 389. Did deadlifts this morning. Got up to 345, thought I pulled them good untill I looked at my video, still rounding in the lower back a bit. Very frustrating, Iāll practice them again Sunday at a lighter weight. Happy Friday everyone much love

Checking in on day 257. The end of another sober week coming to a close and itās been a productive but somewhat boring one. Nothing wrong with that though. Iām just glad to be sober each day and to have this great community.
To those who are struggling, it will get better. Just push through the day and keep in mind the saying This too shall pass.
Have a great one guys

Good luck Laura , you will do this! Of course you will. You go your way, your kids love you and you have so much strength built up, I assume, during the last 521 days.

Here on day 13. Last night was an emotional roller coaster. Had a down pour of self reflection. Lots of great words of wisdom from you all thank you for that. Work up this morning with a smile and positive attitude. Today is going to be a good day. Have a good day everyone!

259 days clean and sober today. The doctor took out one of the drain lines in my back and Iām scheduled for another procedure in two weeks. Progress is slow but healthy. Iāve been having dreams about multiple exās over the last couple days and in them Iām not taking any shit from them, Iām actually standing up for myself and letting them know how fucked up they were to me lol. My subconscious is trying to teach me something about boundaries I believe because if I wouldāve had boundaries I wouldnāt have allowed myself to let things get to a point where I felt resentful, angry and overwhelmed. Have a great day everyone, love you guys!!!

Checking in at the end of day 54.
Had a lovely evening with the family. Made Chinese dumplings with the kids and then scoffed the lot before playing a great game called The Resistance with Mrs Singtone and all four kids. You basically have to lie through your teeth. It was great fun - but the kids have vowed to never trust me again.
Went to the supermarket for ingredients earlier and felt disgusted by the booze on display. The sun was shining too, and I didnāt even flinch.
Feeling like I just donāt drink anymore. 
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Goodnight.

I guess itās going to be a multiple-check-ins kind of day again for me. I went to the gym, then I drove around my state while listening to Recovery Elevator for three hours. Hereās what I know ā¦ I am extremely angry, even though it rarely shows. I canāt even name all the things Iām angry about. One thing is for sure ā I hate that I gave up a life I wanted for the life I have, a decision I made over 15 years ago. Iāll never be able to change it. Most of the time I can navigate my marriage just fine, but then there are times (like now) when I absolutely despise it. I donāt even know how many times I yelled āfuck youā in my truck at the thought of my wife and my marriage today. I understand that divorce is an option, but as a product of divorce myself I have my own convictions about putting my kids through it. I wonāt do that (absolutely no judgement or shade being thrown at anyone here, this is just me). I feel utterly trapped. I hate this. And yet, somehow, Iām still sober. None of this makes any fucking sense.

Day 26
Almost one month down!
I have a small social function tonight with social distancing of course. But nervous because there will be alcohol.
Planning on bringing bottled lavender soda to hold me over. But the social temptation is always there.
Wish me luck friends.

I always kept a full drink of sparkling water in my hand so no one will offer me or get me a drink. Congratulations on your 26 days. Youāll get through it.
