Hey all, checking in on day 532. I hope everybody has a good one!
Checking in day 440.
Going to read cozy in a coffee shop today. Feel good not being hangover on sundays anymore.
I wish everyone an easy Sunday !
Day 534 clean and sober today. My Thursday. I hope everyone has a beautiful day today. I love you guys a lot!!!
You should get yourself a new raincoat. I bought myself a new one last week and some other proper outdoor clothing. Its a good investment and I definitief enjoy the outdoors more this time of the year wenn feeling warm and dry.
Doing a hike together would be fun, I think you are good company for a hike
@Freckles Like TripnMN said, Only worry about today. Looking ahead can cause a lot of undue stress and make it difficult to manage your expectations. Some people have to start with minutes and hours. Slow and steady is the most advantageous way to handle this. Glad youāre still here and trying.
@TigerMatriarch 55! āTherefore, angel number 55 may be seen as a sign that it is time to let go of those things and situations that are no longer serving you and allow the changes that are manifesting to usher into a new phase in your life.ā Whoop!
Day 13. TLC meeting in a 1/2 hour. Kiddo is off to work, wasnāt supposed to work today and we have tickets to the symphony. They have live symphony playing along side Harry Potter movies. Kiddo isnāt supposed to be scheduled on Sundays, due to social engagements, but was. So, we wait until a manager decides if itās OK for an early dismissal. I try to explain how menial these things are in the big span of life. I am only the Mom. What do I know?
Have a good day, whatever youāre doing. Just do it sober
Happy 800 days Lisa!!!
Thank you! Many more weeks to come. .
Checking in at 1 week. Feeling proud i made it through that week. It was definitely not easy. But im ready to do the work. Grateful to have had my grandsons for the night last night and to have got all our Christmas decorating done and even had time for a crafts. I am also very grateful for this group and the support i get here. Have a great day everyone!
Congratulations on your 30 days LAB

Thank you for being a teacher.
Congratulations on week one AF Cindy. Definitely one of the hardest. Very proud of you
Stick around. This forum works if you work it.
This is incredible proud of you!!
Thank you Menno your weather is mirroring ours. A new raincoat sounds like a wise way to spend your money. Lots of love.
Morning checkin
Today I woke up in a panic. Was supposed to be at work for 8am and ended up waking up at 8am! Discovered that my alarm does not go off if the volume is downā¦ odd Anyway, I called my work and then got ready and Iām heading there now. Normally, this would start my day off in a funk and Iād carry around that negative energy all day, but Iām not doing that. I feel great actually lol idk. I really have to watch my state of mind bcuz Iāve learned that relapse doesnāt just happenā¦ its usually a string of events that occur before the relapse. So keeping my emotions and thoughts in check will help! Anyway, I saw this on fb. I quite like it! Thought it might be helpful for some. Have a great day/evening everyone
Thatās a great share, I am going to download it, thanks . And thanks for the congrats. ODAAT.
Checking in and feeling good today, so glad to be home and had a great sleep in my own bed. Struggling a bit with angry sinuses but migraine is gone (fingers crossed!) so this discomfort is manageable. My sinuses and my plants will appreciate the humidifier running all day.
I had a great visit home. There is no doubt about that. But (yes, there is a but) I struggled with feeling like I just wasnāt 100% - and Iām talking recovery-wise. I felt self conscious and sensitive and like I wanted to hide, and I felt this too often. It is kind of my default at times, but this felt like too much. I think what I was recognizing was a trigger. And Iām not going to go into the nitty gritty psychology of it all, because itās nothing extraordinary or unusual, but I guess it was just another reminder that I have more work to do. And Iām not feeling as bad about that today.
Sending strong sober vibes your way, amigos.
Check in two on Day 13. Kiddo gets off early!! Yay! Symphony and The Goblet of Fire, here we come!
Great meeting. Feeling strong. Feeling committed to a healthy life, devoid of alcohol. I am a little weirded out that the voice hasnāt been speaking to me on this go 'round. Itās unnerving. I am filling up a damned arsenal, just in case.
That symphony sounds like so much fun!!! Enjoy, amiga!
Ur welcome! hope u have a fantastic day lady
You guys are the best! Thank you so much @Misokatsu @Mno @Hailstrom @Olivia @TigerMatriarch and @Clarity
