Thanks Liza and yes I agree with you.
It makes me mad that she stoops to such a level that affects the kids who have nothing to do with it⌠but thankfully now I can bite my tongue and take deep breaths to let it go. Never used to do that!

The greatest decision Iâve ever made was putting the drink and drugs down and seeking help. My life has changed in so many ways.
Iâve been given a life full of all the things I was seeking from the abuse of drink and drugs. It has blessed me with so many wonderful moments and memories over the last 3 years.
From my first AA meeting I knew this was it. I was ready to completely surrender and admit I couldnât do it on my own. I needed help. Help that was given to me freely without anything asked in return. Just a willingness to show up and stay sober and clean one day at a time.
In sobriety I have finally found inner peace. A calmness and serenity that only those who experience it can explain. My complete outlook on everything has changed. I have been taught how to forgive, love, appreciate and accept. I have grown more in the last 3 than the previous 31.
It has shown me how to be a better father, partner, brother, son and all round human being. It has shown me that no longer do I have to walk alone in this world trying to figure out everything on my own.
It has given me a life beyond my wildest dreams, and all I had to do was take it a day at a time.
For all those new, or in early sobriety, stock with it. Do the work. Learn self love. Figure out why you work the way you do. Because on this journey, there is no end, and that is the true beauty of it.
Anyway. Whereâs that ice cream!!?

Thank you
Olen parhaillaan etelässä, jos puhutaan Lapin mittakaavassa - kotiseudulla Etelä-Pohjanmaalla. Tähän saumaan en ehdi sinne asti, puhumattakaan siitä että kuolisin kaupungin kuumuuteen.

Iâm here, Iâm alive and Iâm sober.
Day 309
Husband didnât get a doctorâs appointment today. They told him to wait and see, so thatâs what weâre currently doing.
My 18 y/o have left to go and stay a few weeks with my aunt and cousin by the ocean snd her boyfriend who usually stays here too has left to go to his parents house.
Nice calm and quiet. I was hoping for the four of us, me, the boys and my husband to do something fun and special this weeks. But my husband can barely get out of bed, and we still arenât done with the windows so thatâll probably not happen.
We started Mongolian themed week this week, and I made a Mongolian dish called Boortsog for breakfast. And we listened to my 11 y/o current favorite music from a Mongolian band called Hu Band. It was nice and different.
We also started to make some loose plans for a possible road trip through Eastern Europe for next year, if itâs possible and the Covid-19 pandemic is calming down. And weâre talking about doing something more for the summer. I probably wonât start my gardening project idea even in a small scale for this year. Just stick to planning and renovating what I can to make it better for next year.
My husband has his first test to get his driverâs license back on Friday. He needs to do 4 of them and take at least two driving lessons to even have a chance. Weâre still waiting for the doctors note approval that states that he isnât epileptic anymore (he was as a child, and needs a special doctors note that confirms it isnât a danger for his future driving today) but weâre doing everything he can do before he gets that note. And crosses our fingers that itâll go smoothly.
Wishing yâall a wonderful week

Day 6*
Iâm so glad I could be sober and present yesterday for our party. I was able to feed 30 people, keep the children entertained, spend quality time with my family, and not make an ass of myself in front of my partnerâs family. Such a relief to wake up this morning and not have to wonder what I said or did that I might have to apologize for. Just happy.

Ugh, Iâm sorry you went through that. Panic attacks are the worst. And panic attacks in public⌠Ugh. The day after a panic attack I usually feel so âoffâ and need space to recover. I hope you can get some rest.
Three years. Wow. Inspiring.
