I just got home. Class was great ! Just being around other people was something I have not done in a year and a half. Having patience with the other people in my class is going to be what I have to work on. Ive forgotten how different humans are. Our personality. Our way of thinking. What we all perceive individuallyā€¦ I seen so many different perspectives from others today on so many topics and issues. People of all ages , all with different DOCsā€¦ I wont lie, I wanted to walk out within the first five mintues. My anxiety was through the roofā€¦ It didnt help that Iā€™d had 4 coffees between 6 am and 1pm lol :joy::grimacing::speak_no_evil:.

Overall, very successful day.

Also , my neighbour just asked me if I can baby sit her cat tomorrow from midday , over night till sunday afternoonā€¦ Iā€™m cat sitting! Iā€™m very excited about itā€¦ It will be a road test to see how I go with a cat in my apartment and if its what I want to do in the future, get my own cat.

Iā€™ll be sure to flood the pets thread with photos of the cat tomorrow lol :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Hereā€™s the lake this morningā€¦

i made friends with the cockatoo :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::heart::slight_smile:

I LOVE every flavor !!! Iā€™m in Australia and I go online and but it from a store that imports U.S.A food products. Its a lot more expensive, but its worth it. You can buy them online world wide. There are a ton of websites that have every flavor and delivery international. So la Croix for all lol!! Lol :joy:

Day 269

A few people on the forum have been talking about the importance of checking in. I have been doing that, but I wonder how useful my contributions are. Sometimes I wonder about the value of just saying ā€œstill fineā€ or mentioning my trivial everyday happenings. I see people who have meaningful musings on here that are inspiring to others but I donā€™t feel capable of that. Especially as time passes I remember less vividly about the bad times, so feel less able to offer advice or sympathy.

Personally I like reading about peopleā€™s day to day stuff. It is a nice reminder of the things I have in common with others - the shared struggles, interests, attitudes etc - and interesting to learn about the differences. Itā€™s all about building connection. For me what is most inspiring is seeing people being honest and open about their experience, and showing up here to be there for themselves and others. It often crops up in unexpected places!

You are also often here with words of encouragement and support which is lovely :sparkling_heart:

I have to be careful how many I have because they are carbonated, the fizzy is bloating for me. So even though they are healthier than soft drinks, they still arnt the best for our health, but there OK to have occasionally when you have the craving :speak_no_evil::tada::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

  1. Coffee. Totally getting used to sleeping in again. Funny how that goes. Like @SoberWalker Iā€™ll be back to work on Monday, but itā€™s late shifts first so Iā€™ll stay in this rhythm for a bit.
    Iā€™ll be outside soon. Some hiking and biking to do today. Thatā€™s my kind of meditating. Sober and clean. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Clean and sober. Love from the beach yesterday.


@Misokatsu This thread is called ā€œchecking in daily to maintain focusā€. Thatā€™s all I got to say to you really. Iā€™m glad youā€™re here.
