Checking on Day 94.
A day of setting up camp by a river to sunbathe, swim, eat and play card games with my sister and brother in law. I’m incredibly lucky and grateful.

Ugh, I’m so sorry. Like @Mno said, we really only can save ourselves. Doesn’t make it any easier though…
I hope there’s some ease to all of this in the days to come, and ultimately - healing for her too, regardless of whether there’s a relationship, in whatever time it takes.

Oh @AyBee? I see your sevens and nines and counter threes and eights! 
Lots to celebrate on here, as usual!
@Rockstar24777 I was late to send you hugs, big bro, but I knew you’d pull through. You never cease to amaze me, you and your 400 days! 
Congrats on 1 year @Tryingtogetitright ! That’s huge!
And welcome @Newmom2020. I’m proud too that you didn’t drink today. Take it a minute at a time if you need to, and glad you’ve joined us!
No matter how many days we have, it’s today that matters. And we did it, friends. Let’s set our sights on another one tomorrow. C’mon, what’s one day? 
G’night, sweet sober dreams and days to all.

Pretty gutted that I’ve had to reset my timer as I caved in to pressure from my SO to drink last night. I had 20 days. Endured 20 days of my SO pleading for me to resume drinking.
Anyway today is day 1 again. Will keep on checking in here and will be stronger next time. Thanks to this community I appreciate all the wisdom on here, it’s highly motivating

Day 6 checking in.
To think I could either be hungover or still awake twitching about, probably trying to get some more gear right now, fills me with joy that I’m not doing either of those. Instead I’m sat in my garden drinking orange juice after a long dog walk feeling incredibly content. I have a gym session planned and then packing for tomorrow… I’m actually climbing a mountain! Like I’m actually doing it! Instead of wishing I was doing things like that. Time to take my life back and own it. Have a blessed and sober day everyone

Day 1033 
Got the missing stripes of my new tattoo fixed yesterday. Glad they made time for me.
If the artist hasn’t made time for me yesterday I had to wait for the new ink to heal. At first it was not possible but I pushed a little because they wanted to give me a date in september (!) because of the holiday of the artist.
But now it’s done 
Glad I’m stronger then in my drinking days to stand up for myself.
Picture from my latest walk. The sun is almost down, but just peeks trough the clouds to say bye

608 Days: Still pretty much in a funk, took my daughter to lunch and shopping for her birthday, so that was a good distraction. Going to breakfast tomorrow with my family for her birthday, really hope I can get some sleep.
Being home alone now really feels alone. I know this will pass, but sitting with this is challenging. I’m comforted knowing that drinking is not going to happen, but times like these make me understand why I did.
On the flip side, after 608 days of being sober I’m able to realize how drinking would only prolong and deepen my sadness. So going back to the simple thing that got me to where I am now, one day at a time.
Time heals, but my head is conflicted and that hurts. Trying not to shut down, searching for the bright side. Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I just want this weekend to be over so I can get back to work!
Committed to staying sober and feeling better one day at a time.
Much love!
