Day 367
Belatedly got grades in. Today husband was off work, we went to a shopping centre in the morning, and did homework with the kids and a little Japanese study in the afternoon, then a movie after dinner. Feels just like Saturday.

Day five. Step work always makes me uncomfortable which is funny because when I was drunk I could ramble 20 paragraphs deep about my feelings, inadequacies, defects, and all things making me sad, mad, glad (my poor non-drunk husband). Self work is hard when sober ironic. I remember keeping vodka in my water bottle when Iā€™d go to therapy during during one of my attempts to ā€œget soberā€. I remember thinking, ā€œif my therapist was so smart sheā€™d figure out Iā€™m a complete fraudā€ hoping sheā€™d ask me if I was drunk or a drunk and intervene (victim much) ā€¦

Well, I was trying to figure out how to get out of doing my homework and my meeting today but have just shared myself sober. Coffee then go time!! Thanks for letting me share! :hibiscus:

Thank you dear. Iā€™m just trying to have fun with the boys, helping them explore the world a little. It does help that both of them loves things like that. Hopefully when my husband gets his driverā€™s license,and weā€™re getting a car. Weā€™ll be able to visit places like museums and historical sites for real.

Actually thereā€™s not much being upset over. Honestly Iā€™m more excited. I still need to figure out what to do, or how to handle it. Or if I should handle it at all. I didnā€™t cause any of it, so maybe I shouldnā€™t really get involved.

Thank you for your kind words. I wish you an amazing day. And an amazing weekend.

Checking in at the end of day 222.
Getting less and less concerned about the number of days or months. Feel like Iā€™m just becoming a non drinker. :boom::muscle:t2:
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Goodnight. :sleeping::zzz:

My head seems to be getting clearer but I am getting interesting rushes of anxiety that only last for a few minutes but the come out of nowhere with a burst of thoughts.

Happy to be here. Bought a new car, I could never have done that when I was drinking like I was. I have had a great summer sober, and Iā€™m really feeling the love. Close to a year ā€œmostlyā€ sober but celebrating this 90 days for sure. Itā€™s a good life.

Checking in almost at 7 days AF. Not the urge for drinking today, like yesterday.

The day started really bad. Got suddenly so much pain on my lower left backside, it was terrible, I could not go to work like that. It was unbearable, and then I got scared. That trigger my anxiety. I stopped by the doctor to ask if I could come in, I live 2 min from my doctor.

It was my muscels he Said. I have problems to often with musceltensions. The tencions is so tight and bother me often. He crack several places, and it felt better, but still pain. So I went to work, still anxiety.

But now its all good and the pain is away. And Im sober :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
