Checking in daily to maintain focus #29

Day 248: I’m going to do my best to flip this rotten attitude and spend some time evaluating how I’m feeling today. Hubby and I have just started contemplating a move closer to my immediate family in Kentucky and the thought of picking up and moving again has got me stressed already. It’s just that he potentially has the opportunity to continue working remotely and he is not afraid to dream, whereas I still find myself struggling with unknowns and staying open-hearted and positive at times. We get this one life…

Time for some reflection and gratitude.

Be gentle with yourself, we all have these ups and downs, and trying to force positivity doesn’t always work. But gentle reflection and gratitude, little by little can make you feel better.

Sorry to head you are struggling a little today, but glad that you are focusing on the positives. Love that picture. This time of year is so beautiful.

Checking in and sober for another day!! The sun has come back out and I have reworked my mornings and midday to place sobriety work, exercise and food/prep first ahead of everything each day to be sure I don’t get off track and am taking care of business at the “top o’ the morning!” Have a a great day all!

11 months clean and sober today. This last week has been a lot of white knuckling it for sure. Just like @Mno said, there’s nothing good that could come from using or drinking. The only thing that I’d get is the relief of emotional pain for the first 5 minutes as I take the first drink and then it’s straight to guilt and shame. Thank you everyone for all of the love and support over the last 11 months I really appreciate you all. Love you guys have an amazing day!!! :sunglasses::metal:t2:

Checking in day 2! Still very positive but had a little thought on my way home after getting a jab that this would be a perfect time to celebrate. Didn’t give in and not planning to.
