Day 69.
8.14am
Sunday.

Had an early arrival at the bread cafe this morning. A solo diner :joy: arrived at sunrise at 7.24am and stayed a whole 40 mins eating and playing peek a boo with me on its own! Beautiful way to start my Clean and sober Sunday morning :heart:

Feeling good today. No urges or cravings or triggers recently so I’m doing good. But I’m definetly in the wall stage. As long as I stay busy il be all good :pray:






Were buddies now :joy: this lil dude is smart, he flew in early to have some quite time before the big lunch rush :joy:

Hey Jenna,

It’s gonna be hard, when you grown to learn to love a community make friends and a sense of belonging.

It’s like if I am having a bad day I could roll into a AA meeting in person or online and rant it out, yeah those people can be supportive, but they don’t know me like you guys do. I can pop in here and someone I know is gonna wanna help, I created bonds, friendships and respect for members here,

And like you said it’s like building a real life spreading your wings and leaving the nest, as new opportunities rise, the old ones get replaced, nothing wrong with that but that comfort feeling is what your missing until it comes elsewhere I do wish you the best in your journey and you know your welcome here anytime

Needed to check in on day 115. It was just a shitty hard day. Holidays only amplify my loneliness and the damage done over the last several years. Really hard day for me and I’m sure others. Grateful to be going to bed sober. Grateful for this community.

Checking in on day 22. Ran through a gauntlet of temptation with coolers full of beer and tons of liquor. Held my sparkling water tight. Swam with all the kids here and got a sunburn. I am so glad to be going to bed sober. One more day left of this trial. Hope everyone is doing well.

Day 766.

In a funk today. Have been on and off for the past week. Little things annoying me. Lonely. Conflicted about the job offer still. Feel bored and find things to do but then decide I feel too tired to do anything. So that all makes me agitated aswell.
Have joined a social learn to crochet class that starts next Sunday which unlike me (self nicknamed the antisocialist) is looking forward to it. Hoping to start making some f2f friendships.
Trying a pork roast in the airfryer for the first time tonight so see how that goes. Smells amazing so far.
No intentions to pick up today but will be grateful to hit the pillow tonight.

Day 14 checking in. I managed to watch England win 4-0 :grin: without a drop of alcohol last night, admittedly I stayed in a watched it on my own but that’s what I needed to do to stay sober, so I did.
The little addict voice inside me last night was trying to convince me that if england make it to the final I’ll be going out for beers :man_facepalming:t2:. This morning I woke up clear headed, feeling fresh and incredibly grateful. That little voice can fuck right off. Have a wonderful day everyone
