Feeling down today. It’s obviously normal. Can’t expect every day to be fabulous bcuz I got clean lol. Been having alot of unsettled sleep, strange using dreams, flashbacks from my past, crazy Rollercoaster of emotion, distorted thinking like I’m so alone etc (which isn’t true). Wasn’t able to do self care last night so that really threw me off. I actually really needed it last night. So, I’m hoping to just get thru the day. Do some cleaning, maybe listen to some music etc. And rest… if I can sneak some in

Thank You for fixing my counter! i know we must be 100% open …I was thinking well its just few weeks and I know I will succeed, so those 11 days will melt in with time and no one will be sad. I am feeling greatful, motivated and hopeful. All good.

no one on here is going to be sad, its up to you if you quit or don’t so think less about what we think and more about yourself. Instead of waiting for 11 days to pass and catch up with your counter I suggest putting all your honesty and conviction into getting to the end of today. If you can do one day you’ll be pleasantly surprised how quick that counter will add up.

Oh Rob, I can’t even fathom the pain of missing a child. I’m so sorry. Setting up a plate sounds like a lovely idea. Please remember that your life is precious and your heart is valuable, despite all battle wounds. Wishing I could give you friendly hug, big guy. We’re here if it gets too much :heart:

Doing a check-in/gratitude thing today…

It’s day 106 of being sober, and I’m grateful for everything and everyone that got me to this point (me included :wink:).

I’m not so grateful that I’ve picked up a flu bug somewhere. This fever sucks and my body hurts like heck. I’ve tested twice for Covid, and both returned a negative result, so I’m very thankful for that.

I don’t do Black Friday, so I’m pretty ok with being piled up in bed instead of fighting crazy cart people today.

I hope y’all are well. I’m getting there. About to go drop the first holiday tune over on the Froot Loops thread. :christmas_tree::dancer:t3::kissing_heart:

Thank you very much @liv_m I can’t find it in myself to be able to look at any pictures of him or any of his things yet. I know the day will come though. I love to be out in the wind though. I picture his spirit as well of the rest of my family in the wind as well and it’s very peaceful to me to feel the wind wrapping around me. Hope you had a great day yesterday and thank you again my friend :sunglasses::metal:t2:
