Checking in daily to maintain focus #35

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
Wowā€¦ I havenā€™t seen 6 days in a VERY long time. Itā€™s remarkableā€¦ honestly. I get very excited to see the number go up everyday :slight_smile: the higher it goes, the more I donā€™t want to restartā€¦ so itā€™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, ā€œya that would be niceā€ etc. Instead I didnā€™t say a thingā€¦ neither did he. He was abit irritable after work too for whatever reason and it was amazing how I responded to him. Iā€™m much more calm and patient when Iā€™m not itching to use. Im much more sensitive to others needs when Iā€™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. Donā€™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 wonā€™t say I ā€œneededā€ to do or ā€œshouldā€ have done. I am putting sobriety first. The rest will be fine. Drinking water, attending meetings, taking space, giving space. Itā€™s been a good day.

Day 465

I donā€™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.

#Day 1157 :coffee:
Goodmorning, having the day off from work. Going for a walk on the beach with my soon to be husband :upside_down_face: We make jokes all the time about it: 26 years together and getting married soon, a bride of 54 years old :grin:
Despite the covid vaccinations our country is dark red again: covid alarm. So we have extra restrictions and the gouvernement is talking about introducing 2G checkinn.
It makes me sadā€¦so time for a walk.
Beach here I come!


Picture is from the city where I live :heavy_heart_exclamation:
I made it 2 days ago.

Hi there, Lady! I saw you on Brookeā€™s meeting and really appreciated your share. Sobriety being your only focus sounds about right on to me! Thatā€™s what I focused on solely for the first four months. Iā€™m so grateful our paths have crossed here and at TLC. Hit me up next time you head to KC!

  1. Coffee. I got to take care not to drop into full blown depression. I know the cure. Itā€™s not pills, thatā€™s only helping once I let it go too far. Itā€™s time to get off my ass and do stuff, and not just go exercise or walk or write or do other stuff on my own. I need to socialize :cold_face: . OK. One day at a time right. Sober and clean. Will keep you posted. Love from Amsterdam.
