I just love :heart: :two_hearts: :heart: a victory share like this Sarah.
It sure is a great feeling being able to go to bed at night and not be passed out on the couch like my wife was last night. :grimacing: She’s getting better about that. But…… it just seems so ridiculous now right?? So proud of you. Never done yoga in the forest before. Sounds great. Bet that wouldn’t happen with a hangover.

Today will be a great day.
Sober.

50 days sober… I’ve been fairly lucky to have not suffered major cravings in that time but this past week has been a real challenge, more so mentally. Being a sole parent definitely has it’s challenges and seeing your teen going through their own challenges certainly makes you feel helpless at times. We’ve been back at the gym for a few days so that definitely helps with distractions and overall well-being. Anyway, I haven’t buckled and continue to fight, not just for my benefit, but that of my son also.
Peace and strength to all.

Yes, exactly! You said it best right there. I can’t believe my life used to revolve around drinking! And how many days were ruined by alcohol. I was always perpetually hung over or drunk. The freedom I feel now is just amazing. Glad we all get to experience this second chance of life! :raised_hands:

The winter cozyness has well and truly set in. All I did yesterday was read books curled up in a blanket and played with the cockatoos when then visited… I read books for 8 hours yesterday. 8 hours! :thinking: its too cold to go outside and I had to give Netflix a break for a day :joy: all that was missing was a fire place and smores :joy:

I havnt been back to Pilate’s since it re opened two weeks ago after lockdown. I REALLLLLY need to get that momentum back and begin that journey again…il book In a class for today and get the ball rolling again.

No urgeres cravings or triggers. As long as I keep my mind and body busy , I feel confident :pray::v::tada:

AA teaches us not to play God, not to try and run the whole show, not to be selfish. It says alcohol made us restless, irritable and discontent. Well let me tell you!!! as a human being with feelings and emotions when people try and run my life and control my thoughts and actions I’m far from having a head full of serenity. There is a difference between self pity and knowing right from wrong. YEP bad day at the office and more to come tommorow, end of rant. 9 months 2 weeks sober, angry, frightened, would normally drink and want to drink but something just won’t let me.

I’ve got a friend in Sydney. He had 4 degrees Celsius today. I’m so envy that his freezing winter temperatures is our warm winter or early spring here. I want to make a trade.

Today we started of good with +26 C and sun, then it all changed to +18 Rain and thunder.

But S’mores works just fine no matter the weather for me :blush:
