I have started noticing these blind grabs for my phone. It’s either boredom, habit, or both. I would love to take a week-long tech detox. It’s something my kids will never know. I used to run amok through the woods all day and we only turned on the TV on the weekends (sometimes not even then).

Ugh another sleepless night. Doing ok tho, my dad is coming to finish his tattoo, I will post it but just incase I will say now it’s going to be a pot leaf incorporated into it so trigger warning now.

I really seriously hate counting my days, idk why I just am getting very annoyed by it, like it seems like sobriety has this stigma around how many days sober someone is, like oh you’re 30 years sober so you know more then me. Or even at my year i got joy when newcomers came because they were fresh to sobriety. Like idk I think that is stupid now, were sober were all knowledgeable were all gonna face hard shit and have hard times no matter how many days sober we are. I remember when someone would relapse I got joy out of saying oh relapse isn’t apart of recovery. Well fuck I’ll never say that to someone again nothing like slapping someone in the face when they are down, and making it seem like I was better because I didn’t relapse yet. Well even when your working your recovery, one day you just may not work it and end up like me and fuck up, even tho I thought I’d never relapse again. Idk just calling out my defects here take care have a good day
