Hi everyone. This is going to be an early night for meā€¦ Iā€™ve had three nights of crappy sleep (lots on my mindā€¦ work, selling my flat, moving, etc.), so I bought some homeopathic ā€œsleep aidā€ liquid at the local mixing chemist, and Iā€™m really hoping that it will help !
I have to drive about 300 km tomorrow (my first middling long trip in my new electric car), and Iā€™m really looking forward to itā€¦ but I would rather be well-rested for it !
So goodnight all.

247 days no alcohol.
215 days no cocaine.

The cats and I are officially in our new home :raised_hands:t2:
Iā€™ve got no idea where they are hiding, probably in the spare room in little spaces between all the many boxes. Hopefully they will soon start exploring bless them. Me and my brother got most of my stuff moved, it took 5 hours and I am in agony from being on my heels for so long. Tomorrow Iā€™ve got a few car loads I need to do to get the rest of the stuff, and then Iā€™ll be cleaning the old place up ready for the buyers. Feeling really relieved that moving is mostly out of the way. Excited to start unpacking boxes and getting things in their correct places etc, but I will do it bit by bit day by day.

I am sorry to hear that, even if it is mutual and amicable, it can be a difficult transition.

Congrats on 5 months Charlie and @Conor689908 on 20 months AF. Way to go guys and keep on trucking ODAAT. :confetti_ball: :tada:
Blessings and sobriety!

A week being sober. Closer to a week and a half really since last Wednesday I just had a couple of beers. Anywho, feeling really good about not drinking. Maybe a craving or two a day that I think maybe I should that have been pretty easily squashed. Iā€™m sleeping and doing well. Turns out, thereā€™s plenty of stress and shit I need to sort out in my life and Iā€™m just realizing it. Ironically, Iā€™m excited about it. Nice to feel stress, anger, sadness that arenā€™t alcohol related, and deal with them like an adult. Iā€™ll take a stressed sober me over a ā€˜happyā€™ unpredictable drunk me any day. Keep fighting on all.

Been absent a while so I wanted to check in. Things have been pretty even flowing. Enjoyed a great week off past week with the family and had a good time. I needed that break. Didnā€™t want to get back to work this week though lol. Hitting day 292 and still feeling great, canā€™t believe I am almost to 300! Take care everyone!

Day 289.
Itā€™s cuckoo how much I missed when I had to sit things outā€¦ (sorry @C_8. Dose #2 was yucky for me too.)
ā€¦But 500+ posts later (confession: I might have broken the speed limit here and there) and Iā€™m grinning with our collective pride at all of the milestones, and also in quiet awe of those of you whoā€™ve shared your losses and your struggles but have held fast to your commitment to sobriety.
We have a good thing going here, friends.
Letā€™s do another one tomorrow.
Gā€™night all, big love. :orange_heart:
