Checking in daily to maintain focus #31 (Part 1)

Day 324
Even tho it is more than a month away, have been thinking about the approaching one year. Should I celebrate? How? Should I tell my husband? Would he be happy for me, or just think not drinking like I did is normal and not worth celebrating? Will I feel disappointed if I don’t celebrate? Will I feel deflated if I do celebrate and the next day is just a regular sober day?

Haha, I just saw your selfie with the LIG shirt!

It’s just another sober day, but don’t forget that it’s a big deal to make it a year. Not everyone does it right away, so it is worth commemorating, IMHO. I think you should do something nice for yourself. Up to you to tell hubby, but I would hope he’d be happy for you. Also, I will be celebrating as your former sober twin my “almost” anniversary (minus a 10 day relapse) :smiley:

Life throws so much shit in our way that any reason to celebrate is worth it, IMO. YOU are definitely worth it! Yet, there’s no need to build up expectations on it. I hope you can enjoy the day when it arrives :hibiscus::partying_face::gem::blush:

Day 11
I feel good I wake up sometimes and feel like I drank the day before. It’s weird, other than that I feel good. Last time I made it this far out was a real struggle I’m waiting for that feeling again. In a few days this will be the longest I’ve ever gone not drinking in many years. Maybe I’m more motivated. I want this so bad.

Oh, I am so behind on this thread and don’t get me started on how behind I am on the meme thread. I’m going to have to take a day off for that. The meme thread is very important. Checking in beautiful sober friends :heart:

Checking in! 11.21 months
Headed to Utah today. Going to disconnect from the phone and reconnect with nature! We have this poor little baby pine tree that was left for dead around Christmas time that we replanted in our garden. Gonna give him a permanent home in Utah. My daughter named him Kristoff.
My mother in law asked me how I am coping so well (lots of drama going on, she wallows in it). She goes “Is it all the meditation and yoga?” My answer was that I honestly wasn’t aware I wasn’t supposed to be coping. I don’t sweat the small stuff, and it’s all small stuff. Lol. But she did get in my head a little bit… wait a minute, am I supposed to be sad or something??
Have a great sober day y’all! :purple_heart:
