Beautiful numbers Tomek! And beautiful sentiments too. Very happy for you. Big congrats friend.
*Day 1180
Had a weird day yesterday. As you all know I like to walk in nature. Most of the weekdays I walk in a space nearby my house. Yesterday in the early mornings I made my round as well.
Made this picture then.
2 houres later when I was home helicopters flew over and there was police everywhere.
A hiker found a body near the foothpath!!
It was a tramp (hope I found the right translation?)
So sad for that person, he was only 60. They do not know how he died yet.
Also glad I did not found him! I think I passed him during my walk and didnât saw him because of the rain and my hoodie.
I slept bad afterwards and had a nasty relapsedream, but sober still.
I lighted a candle for the person they found, itâs sad
Thanks you Stella, we have to push our selves I will be a big bag of jingle jangle nerves tomorrow, but doing it. I say
349 days
Had a good sleep, no plans today apart from Christmas Shopping again and no alcohol today, it does really help thinking ODAAT.
Have a good sober 24 hrs everyone
Wow, how inspiring love how you developed a new lifestyle with all your new hobbies, this is what I needed to read, I am doing well with my sobriety, but need to push myself and do stuff I enjoy. Your share has motivated me. Massive Congratulations .
Whoo hoo!
Way to go!!
Happy Saturday morning from a drizzly and dark spot in Wisconsin.
On the weekdays I get up, usually without an alarm at 4:30 am to get ready for the schoolteacher work.
One of the best parts of being AF is that I wake up refreshed, even at 4:30 on Saturday. Plus, the pets are making sure I get up. And Iâm not cranky about it cuz Iâm not hungover!
I did so much work this week that I get the weekend off! That is not typical for me, so Iâm excited to spend this weekend in lots of reading, probably some movies, and the first steps of packing for vacation that is coming up.
Iâm building a reading list to keep myself on the AF journey. If you have suggestions about quit lit and trauma healing and anything else, let me know!
Have a peaceful and happy day.
All we have is Now if you donât like whatâs happening now, be patient, it will pass it always does.
3 weeks ago on the eve of my 29th birthday I visited a friend whose also my barber, to get this head chiseled. Shortly after arriving he revealed to me that he discovered a bag of coke at his job and did some the night before which he was still feeling the effects of. Out of habit I inspected the bag to determine quality and value, not actually testing it of course but itâs something I do even if I donât use the substance. I introduced my friend to the drug, and he doesnât have a problem with it the way I and others had, in fact the only time heâs ever done it was with me and I can probably count on my fingers. He wasnât fully aware that I was 100% sober, he just thought I stopped drinking, but no. That night, I felt temptation greater than any other in these past 700 days. Fortunately I have the strength that I do today.
Hi everyone. Been a long time since I have posted but I dont think I was ready to commit to a life of sobriety before now. Im happy and proud to say that I am 7 days sober today which is the longest I have acheived in all my adult life. I have a whole new outlook on life having recently joined AA. Im working on living in the present moment and today I will not drink. Best wishes to everyone else here.
Amazing. You inspire me, for realz! And I love your stocking cap (I have way too much of their goodies!). Sending you healing strength, but you might not need it from that look on your face!
Hey all, checking in on day 545. @LeeHawk you are an inspiration and I love the Life is Good hat!
Have you read their book?
I hope everyone has a great one today
Simply amazing for 700 days. And that test and your sharing of it is very valuable, thank you for sharing with us. Vigilance is important.
Woot wooooot! Big big congrats to you, buddy!!!
Checking in today - itâs a lovely quiet morning, just me and some blowing snowflakes out the window. A pretty sight, not quite snow covered, but pretty. These weekend mornings are one of my favorite parts of sobriety.
I am pretty proud of myself for following through with my plan yesterday and taking a drive (hour each way) to the flower farm holiday open house. An outing just for me, a beautiful drive through gorgeous countryside, winding around the driftless areas here where glaciers didnât flatten the terrain and big bluffs still cover the landscape. Time for my thoughts, time for rocking out to my favorite 90s rock and grunge nostalgia, time for building confidence in myself to do things by myself. I am resolved to do more of this. It is super beneficial to not rely on my husband to take me places and for all my activities to be focused on doing things together. And I got this pretty wreath - will decide where to put it today.
Sending some sober strength out your way, amigos.
Day 68 for me. Wow! There are so many milestones and victories on this post today. Itâs very inspiring to read them all. Congrats everyone and may you continue to prosper in your sober journeys.
Checking in finallyâŚ
At October 14th I hit the 11 month sobriety milestone.
The 17th October I relapsed for a full week, and I panicked so hard. I looked for all the courage I could get and stopped again, but last week after another month of sobriety , I relapsed again.
I stopped again 3 days ago but I feel anxious, I didnât dare to tell anyone yet. Just my sponsor, god bless him.
So I now check in again and will try to do so every day, just to just spit it out there.
Wishing you all a great weekend, and pray for me, I will pray for you
Love
Bart
Hi all, checking in Day 129 clean from drugs and alcoholâŚ
Doing good still recovering from surgery but able to take full fluids (milk, protein shakes). Still some pain on right middle abdomen but trying to deal with it with Tylenol.
Have missed a few meetings due to the surgery and feeling disconnected from my program so hope to change that in the next couple of days.
Hope everyone has a clean and happy 24 hrs!
