Thank you for the mention on my week, itās been a tough one to start with but had some amazing support from people. @Dazercat @Waka1uk @DLS to name but a few, some of your comments have really helped when I needed them!
@Butterflymoonwoman, glad you have woken to happy plans and your fave day of the week! The meme you have posted is so true. Keep your mindset as it is, you have the choice and are choosing greatness! Loving your positivity In your posts!
Saw a poem the other day that I will share, hope it will Inspire others the way it has inspired me.
Before the inkās even dry the history books are being rewritten,
Those pens are reserved for the gifted and driven.
But thereās a winner in all of us.
A plan bigger than all of us!
Yet that council estate of mind will forever be installed in us!
I Could have been a stereotype, Till I decided I would pave my own path through this life.
Because footsteps are not to be followed unless overtaken, Corners shanāt be cut on the road to greatness.
The game is, Lessons learnt and dropped jewels. Sacrifices and falls!
YOU CANāT CHECKMATE LIFE WITHOUT LOSING PAWNS!!!
They told us we would never make it.
They told us not to reach for the sky 'coz they didnāt.
I told them when the stars align itās just our time
From āthe newā to the āand still!ā
SEIZE THE MOMENT, I WILL!!
Never let life hold you back, you can be great; just believe in yourself!
Love prayers and hugs to all!

Have a good night everyoneā¦
And Iām just checking in.
Celebrating day 42
Congrats awasome
Checking on a day 2 of my sober life! We all gotta start somewhere and need to this daily for myself
Something happened yesterday that almost brought me back. Iām staying with family and one of their friends came over. She said āI put beer in the fridge, youāre welcome to itāā¦ I genuinely considered it. I thought āwhat the heck, Iāve been doing good, whatās one beer!?ā I must have gone back and forth to that fridge 20 times. Every time I shut the door and busied myself with other things. I didnāt drink it. I was so proud of myself.
Good work!! As long as you keep saying no to that first drink, you will be fine
Welcome Candice.
Iām glad you found us.
Have a good read around. Join in when your comfortable. Lots of great people around here.
Congrats on 2 days. Thatās a great start.
ODAAT
Day 8 here, turning a corner where Iām feeling remotivated for returning to interests or even just finishing chores/ tasks and the like.
Here i am ready to relearn the art of relaxing and articulating parts of my thoughts etc that are far past due.
Part of sobriety Iāve really dreaded far and above has to be the āspace betweenā and Iām very unbothered by those times now and very excited to fill in the blanks or just relax and enjoy the view from where Iām at
In my brain I imagine Iām climbing a mountain trail to get somewhere better and looking back on how far I traveled through thick brambles and such, repeating over again, āhere I amā
So bumpy scary few days coming. Will keep going to meetings and keep in touch with my sponsor.
Praying for you Kat! Youāve got a good head on your shoulders and I admire your discipline.
Good luck with this big test!! You are doing the right things and remember we are with you!
