This is a great share. The more you see it happening, the easier it is to see it for what it is. Just conditioning and habit. I really identify with it because I do it a lot, too.

Classic, Beth! Same here, Margaret @Irisees919 Thanks for the share. The more we acknowledge and share these triggering events with others the less we are alone in them. I truly believe that putting it out to the universe helps release something, too, whereas keeping them inside they sometimes fester.

Yeah, who’d have thunk? We’ve got this Shay, not by luck but by hard design.
Blessings and sobriety!

@Joy this is so amazing!! i hope you are feeling proud. i am still on Day 1 from alcohol and cigarettes — i had tried to remove one at a time but it never works, because i feel they go hand-in-hand for me. so i decided i’m determined enough to do both at once. i am inspired by your progress and am excited to see myself being in my 600, 700th day like you. but for now i am just staying focused, one day at a time!!

Good morning to all 
just checking in on day 10
It’s another great morning, sun is shining, already pretty warm so I don’t need gloves or even a jacket while riding by bike to work

Day 337.
Eleven. It’s always been my favourite number. Remember being 11 years old? I thought it was grand – the most freedom you could have as a kid! Once 12 came, (and everything I’ll just collectively refer to as “the hassles of the bra”) well - everything changed! 
But hey, that’s life.
Sobriety, actually, kind of feels like being a responsible adult and also being 11 years old all over again - all at the same time. Free to – well, be free. Free from the biggest, most regretful hassle of all: almost constantly looking ahead to when the next glass of wine will be poured.
Forget wine o’clock. On days like today especially – when the dog girl needs some shade on our walk after work – I’ll take being 11 again, and lie down in the grass beside her and stare at the clouds and marvel in this chance to get it right. To be free.
What do you say, friends? You’ll make more pics out of clouds with me tomorrow, yeah?
Until then, g’night or good day. Big love to all.
@Becsta ditching the smokes – way to go! I’m thinking they don’t stand a chance when it comes to the likes of you… 
@anon27760155 you are the legend, beautiful Danni. I’m so glad you’re here.
@nick_1985 I am so sorry about your friend. Sending strength and peace.

Work has been stupidly busy, and struggled to catch up properly on here, like to read posts before I check in. So caught up somewhat, as it’s important for my recovery to keep with you guys celebrating our achievements and supporting our more difficult moments 
Some brilliant milestones massive congratulations.
Not heard from interview so will chase later, so annoying they don’t put you out of your misery… especially when you take a day to prepare a presentation. But if a no i can handle it.
Went out for a meal as I am another year older today, lovely pizza restaurant, good pizza and lime and soda… all friends were drinking wine I was fine. They got me cake.
Went swimming in this river Monday just gone it was bliss.
Special day at work today, I have a arranged with Social Services for a mum on my caseload who is a heavy user, but engaging well with support services and making progress, to meet with her 3 children today, First time in 18 months she gets to see them in the flesh, I am going to support her… just know how emotional this day will be
Have a good day everyone… keep strong
