Never checked in today. Day 35, tired and slept most of the day. Typical, few good days, few bad days that’s life ain’t really shit we can do about it, just wait for the better days again ans quit expecting everyday to be good because that’s just not how life works. Take care see y’all tomorrow

Hey all! Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. I seem to be okay now. Tried to take a nap, which didn’t happen in spite of my tiredness, but at least the pain went away! :pray:

60 day check in :black_heart:

Had a busy, productive day and focused on my mental and physical health, which includes setting boundaries with people in my life who leech my joy. Took a run, walked the dogs and pulled weeds. Weeding is great for anxiety :metal:

Evening check in
Coming up on Day 6
Wow… I haven’t seen 6 days in a VERY long time. It’s remarkable… honestly. I get very excited to see the number go up everyday :slight_smile: the higher it goes, the more I don’t want to restart… so it’s good motivation too. Hubby got home and I got that feeling that he wanted to maybe make a call. I could just sense it in his body language. Normally I would take this opportunity to say something like, “ya that would be nice” etc. Instead I didn’t say a thing… neither did he. He was abit irritable after work too for whatever reason and it was amazing how I responded to him. I’m much more calm and patient when I’m not itching to use. Im much more sensitive to others needs when I’m not thinking of myself and my selfish needs. We ate supper and will relax until we get ready for bed. Good day so far overall. Really so very grateful for my recovery :pray: and for TS :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Day 3. Don’t think I checked in here today. I have been engaged in sobriety to the detriment of all the things that I could be doing. I won’t say I “needed” to do or “should” have done. I am putting sobriety first. The rest will be fine. Drinking water, attending meetings, taking space, giving space. It’s been a good day.

Day 465

I don’t know how to describe it, I just feel so much lighter recently. I have bumped into / heard about people that I used to hang out with, but for various reasons, most importantly my withdrawing due to drinking, I have not seen for months, or years. Before, that would have made me feel rejected by them and guilty that I had let it happen. This time I shot them a text. Each time the conversation progressed and a meeting was planned. The gifts of sobriety.
