Checking in daily to maintain focus #29

Hey Rosa! Yeah I moved at the end of february and that was definitely the trigger … lots of expectatioms, emotions, family issues. I foolishly thought I’m “over it”. We never are, aren’t we?
But no looking back, I’m here to stay now.
Hope you’ve been doing good :rainbow::sunflower:

Checking in on day two. Still feel like shit, but took a long walk at the beautiful Central cemetary in Vienna. Will be attending my first Zoom-Meeting later in the day and I’m scared and curious in equal parts :sweat_smile:

Checking in on Day 141 no alcohol or weed! It’s been a couple weeks since I posted on this thread, but I’m still going strong.

I got my first vaccine shot and second one coming up soon. As I think about seeing people and being out of my house more, I’ve been feeling so grateful that I got sober during this time of social distancing over the last year. Not having the temptation to drink wile being out at dinner or with friends made the process a lot more manageable for me. I’m happy with this new lifestyle and both excited and nervous to transition to more time out and about as a non-drinker.

Cool nails. :sunglasses:
I know what you mean about getting out and being anxious. Been waiting forever to get out again and it’s right around the corner. My wife is getting her hair done next Friday. For the first time in 14 months. She’s going full silver no more coloring for her. It will be over 2 weeks from our 2nd jab :joy:, as y’all call it, and we might even go out to dinner. Then headed out to Cali. Such weird mixed feelings about getting out again. At least we got a lot of sober days under our belts. Have fun with your friends.

Today has been wonderful. My husband left me alone to sleep in and I slept in super super late. It’s a beautiful day and I’m grateful that I wasn’t hungover and was able to spend time outside. It felt so good. Love you guys. :heartpulse:

Close call today, lovely day out at an outdoor auction with the better half, sun on your back with the laughter of people sitting about drinking, happiness has always been my downfall. Not even had AF beer this time and decided to buy some but then I knew today would be a taste and tommorow would be the real thing then next time I’m off work it would just be the 8 tins and that’s how the story begins, months later if I’m lucky enough to find a way back the same old shitty feelings of nothingness. We have to be enough no matter what the situation, life does not need to be distorted into a vision that doesn’t exist. Nearly 7 months sober after 100s of failed attempts and I still have to convince myself its for the best. Drugs, alcohol and your ego will never stop lieing. Its the nature of the beast.
