Ticking along, Monday morning with no major anxiety, no love for the my job, but I will persevere until new year and starting looking for another role in Housing Support/homeless work. This gives me light in the tunnel, rather than walking off the job causing financial issues. Clarity and thought-out decision making! phew how novel :slightly_smiling_face:

@anon53116147 a friend with such good habits sounds just what you need
@Girlinterrupted , Beth nothing trival at all, sending you strength and comfort your way.

  1. Coffee. New week. Late shifts ahead. My salary was paid. This month there’s a double bonus included, a regular early Christmas one and an extra one for health care workers due to COVID. For once I have an income that I really feel good about. Now not to spend it all in a wild buying spree.
    I’ll practice some restraint. Which I don’t really need to do to stay sober and clean these days. It’s the state I want to be in. One day at a time. Have as good a week as you all can friends. Love from Amsterdam and the dairy farm last Saturday.


@MagicILY huge congrats on a full year of freedom! Awesome!

Monday morning check in here at 5 am in Wisconsin.

I made it thru the 5 day break! In a month the hubby and I go on a vacation to Tybee Island and Savannah Georgia. It will be my first AF vacation since high school back in the early 80s. I am doing some thinking about how to manage vacation. We are renting a small house on the island, and I’m really looking forward to morning walks on the beach.

So this morning it is back to the classroom. I have a lot of work to do this week, so trying to stay calm and focused is my main job. And part of that is remembering to go slowly and carefully. I learned about some new curriculum on this break so my mind immediately went to how to fully implement it first thing this morning. That is not a good idea and I need to calm the F down and take it one step at a time. The only person who is looking for improvement in my teaching is me, so I really need to give myself a break and start with something small.

So yes, anxiety and some level of crazy is on my shoulders, talking in my ears. I will work to shake them off today. Especially by the time I come home this afternoon.

Good grief.

Have a great day to all of you on this journey to freedom. We’ve got this!

Hi :wave: I hope today finds you well. Check in day 104 no alcohol. I usually like to check in after I settle in for the day but I wanted to kind of process last night "out loud "
I woke up in the middle of the night last night and quickly got annoyed. I was in bed all alone so I went to the living room to look for my gf and she wasn’t on the couch. I started to think about where she could be and went into my bedroom. Next I had complete confusion that really scared me I couldn’t get her name to come to my mind. This really started to disturb me and I tried to slow down and think. This must have gone on ten minutes or so before I realized I’m single and should be alone in bed. I don’t know but it really bothered me and was scary not knowing what was going on and why I couldn’t remember. Anyway I still feel a little strange and now lonely. I’m glad I have some positive things coming this morning. I have Bible study in about an hour and therapy late morning with a nice workout to end my afternoon. Venting about done I would think it was silly if it hadn’t frightened me. I hope you have a great day! Let’s start the week off right.

Love and good thoughts

Checking in sober at the end of day 330.
Every time I type in my number, I can’t believe it. It just doesn’t seem possible, or real.
I keep expecting it to become normal and to get used to it, but it just keeps getting better and better.
Life is so much better now.
Have a great sober day, wherever you are.
Goodnight. :zzz::sleeping:
