  1. Coffee. Very damp outside. Work later, gym first. I’m feeling pretty good this morning. Not sure why. Not being hungover certainly helps. Have a good day my dear friends, or at least as good as you all can. Make it sober and clean. It helps so much.
    Pic is from a little hike to the Guadalupe River in the Texas Hill Country two years ago. I’ll be there again. In due time. Love.


@Laraellelarissa Huge congrats and very happy for you lady. That smile you describe brought a tear to my eye. Thanks for sharing your journey.

Good morning everyone, actually slept ok woke up craving sweets came down and indulged in cheese cake and now can’t go back to sleep. I posted my mom’s tattoo and I am getting blown away with positive feed back and ppl messaging me for tattoos, it’s seriously feeling so good, and I believe God is showing me exactly what my chapter will look like sober, today’s tattoo is going to be fun and cute. Can’t wait for my baby’s to come home, thinking of downloadibg tik tok so we can do some fun dances. I’m very grateful for everything right now, this community,my mom, waking up much love

130 one-days-at-a-time. I went on a 40 mile ride yesterday and am waking up quite sore this morning. Time to get the kiddos ready for school.

Congratulations @MsMotorista on 30 days and welcome! Glad you are here. :grinning:

Awesome job on 8 months @Laraellelarissa! Keep up the great work!

Got up and got the kiddies ready for daycare once they were all set they were waiting for my son to finish getting ready and apparently he was taking to long because the girls decided to make a bed on the kitchen floor by the door :rofl:. It was a nice giggle first thing in the morning. I look at them and see how innocent they are and just want to hug them. Trust me I try to but they’re not having it they’re too busy to relax lol #toddlerlife! But it was 6:30 am and they were happy and that’s all’s that matters to me. Sitting here with my coffee, just turning on my laptop. I have a meeting at 10 with my supervisor to go over my presentation. Lots to do today. I hope everyone has a wonderful day. :purple_heart:

First thing I noticed was the VW camper you caught a classic there. Have a good day, and wishing the good feeling continues for you

@Hopeful777 @Mno Same! I love VW busses!

@liv_m Im so happy you’ve found the right combination of things for good sleep. It’s a struggle worth fighting for and can be a mystery at times. I’m so grateful to have found my way, too.

Checking in quickly today, slept in quite a bit - as it gets colder it’s harder to get out of a comfy, warm bed! Another beautiful day in store for me and lots to do. I’m so grateful to be in a good place mentally and physically right now, solid in my recovery and working on it every day, so that I can be productive. One thing I do every single day regardless of how I’m doing is to find some small joy somewhere. So, find your small joy today - you won’t have to look far but you do have to look.

Much love, amigos. :heartpulse:

@Laraellelarissa Larissa dear, congratulations! You’ve been putting in real effort and I’m overjoyed to see how you’re starting reap harvest. We walk next to each other, and when one trembles the others support.

@Complicatedmama Patty, such crazy days you’re having but OMGoodness those two smiling!!! :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes: I’m sure they’ll adapt to daycare and learn you’re not going anywhere. Enjoy your coffees!

@CATMANCAM well done for helping out your old man. Idk him, but maybe he’s worried about you rather than doubting or belittling you for going back to work. I hope things will work out the best.

@liv_m Oh I’m glad to hear your sleeping has improved. I struggle with insomnia too and I know it can be so frustrating and exhausting. I’m dreaming of a new bed too!

Enjoying my job try out. I have professional shoes for restaurant work but they’ve been brutally killing my feet, they’re sooo heavy. So I changed to indoor trainers and was smiling today just for the sheer relief that my feet didn’t hurt much at all!!

Sleeping has been an issue recently. It’s hard to calm down for the night. I have a habit of doing everything with full speed and don’t really know/understand when/how to wind down. I was doing dishes at work today, and caught myself going at it like a squirrel on speed and had to push the breaks. “Breathe, breathe, slow down
” I kinda managed it. I did lose my sense of time and accidentally worked 20 minutes overtime. Oops :face_with_hand_over_mouth: :woman_facepalming:t2: :sweat_smile:
