Checking in and using all my tools! Practicing gratitude and appreciating what I have in my life today. It always helps when I’m not feeling great physically. I had a mentrual headachy day yesterday and today is better. I lost a beloved pot in the windy storm last night and felt sad, and it reminded me to sit with the feeling and let it go. I needed to harvest that lemongrass anyway. The broken pieces can be used again or it can be a lesson in impermanence. Helped a friend today (at least I hope I did) and just listened to another knowing I couldn’t do much but I could listen. And I told my husband we are getting pizza for dinner. It’s one of those days.

@TerriL welcome congrats on 51 days
441 days no alcohol.
409 days no cocaine.
2 days no nicotine.
1 day no binge-eating.
I feel so strange without nicotine. I can’t really do anything apart from lay in bed, brain won’t even let me look at memes or read. The dreams are horrendous and so is the sweating. I really hope this is my last quit with nicotine. I could eat so much but determined to stick to my diet.

There it is 
Way to go buddy!! So proud of and for ya.
Ya know, the number of times you’ve been kicked in the balls, get right back up, ask for help, and remain sober is beyond belief sometimes. You really fucking amaze me. I’m so happy you’re on our team.

I’m glad you went and got that referral, well done
It makes me sad that you said your friends deserve better, I think like that too sometimes, even when they tell me otherwise…
You are so much more than your issues! I’m sure your friends have many things they like about you and are glad to be there for you.
When I feel bad about the people I care about having to witness all my crap, I remind myself that I would do the same for them in a heartbeat and I’m looking foward to taking care of them when they need it. That’s how friendship works, isn’t it? It’s not only being happy and having fun all the time, it’s also leaning on each other and sharing the hard stuff … at least I like to think so 
@RosaCanDo in German we say “Scherben bringen Glück”, wich translates to “broken pieces bring you luck”

Wish I had a 567 to add to @TMAC s post!
but this will do.Checking in. Last Tuesday I applied to be a foster dog mom and Wednesday the Humane society lady came by and interviewed us and by Thursday we had 2 puppies!!
They are soooo sweet. We are in love, I might have to adopt them. It’s a foster fail! Except one barks a lot my fiancé doesn’t like the barking
They let my daughter hang all over them though. Might be a match made in heaven! Anyone who wants to be a dog foster parent, it feels like a cool gig and our Husky is happy that he has some dog friends now!
