I’m grateful your here Trip. Congrats on that 65 days. And 28 days no butts. That’s a pretty big accomplishment. Share as long or short as you feel. That’s what we’re here for.
This is the best. Love it. So true my friend.
Like I said this morning on the gratitude thread.
I know I’m safe if I just don’t take that first drink.
The world sucks.
Sometimes life sucks.
That’s why we do it one lousy day at a time
It isn’t easy by any stretch. But you keep trying. That’s all we can do. Try, one day at a time, to be sober.
Giving up isn’t an option.
Beautiful pendant.
That’s so cool Claudia, I love it.
I’ll keep you in my prayers for your health. Sorry you got to go through this shit with your gall bladder. It’s good to be strong and sober going into something like this.
Are things that we are all striving for as we try to live this new life based on spiritual principles. It sounds to me like you are checking quite a few boxes!!! Congrats on your days and working so hard on your recovery, like you said some days will feel better than others. That’s one of the best things about recovery, things change.
Hopefully soon you’ll get into your groove where you don’t feel left out because you’re not drinking. Talking about the celebration of the closing. Think of it this way … you have even more to celebrate… the closing and your days sober! Yay!
Congratulations to everyone celebrating their milestones and to everyone talking about their challenges and working through them a step at a time one day at a time. Hugs, all.
@Bootz that really made me laugh. I’m gonna try that today!
Day 6. Wobbled yesterday so just sat on the sofa watching that crazy squid game thing till it passed. Only it didn’t pass, so I went to bed in a bad mood. But now this morning I’m over the moon I didn’t drink. No.more starting again. Took me MONTHS to manage another day 1 and was hell. So now I’m on a roll and I’m not going back. Even if I have to stay in and go to bed early and become a complete hermit!
Checking in on day 28 AF, the last few days have been an emotional roller coaster. I didn’t get a job I was hoping for, got really disappointed and angry because it’s the third time it’s happening. I’ve basically isolated but go to at least one online meeting a day to listen.
Been trying to see that is the best thing for me and probably a good thing as the new and added responsibility may not be so good in early recovery. I’m mostly trying to counter the thoughts that I’m not moving on because I’m not good enough. I need to practice some self love.
The same day I got the bad news, I managed to reach my jogging target for Oct! 10 days shy of the end of the month.
Day 498 clean and sober today. Thank you everyone for the love and support it quickly turned into a really good day! Have a great day, I love you guys!
