Day 40. A spiritual number. Up early meditating and sageing. Another loss last night a good friend of the family passed.
Think a lot as I working the steps on Step one doing three questions a day as directed by my Sponser as to not overwhelm myself. Yet addiction…such a selfish disease. I’m tired of being self absorbed by every little thing. Again I can’t do this without my higher power so I pray that God take my will and my life and show me how to live. My way only lead to self destruction. Love you all. Blessed day.
It means EVERYTHING to me finish the year on a great Sober Run. I talk alot about being done forever and being free, but just to finish the year on a 45 day run is so encouraging going into 2022. Everyone have a wonderful day! Stay Sober my friends…
Checking in today. Woke up with an awful headache for no apparent reason, I hope it subsides. To help I’m snuggling my golden retriever and that cures everything always I hope everyone has an amazing day. Love seeing the milestones this morning, lots to celebrate!!! I also see the love and support for Danni day after day, myself included, and it is so heartwarming to me, so grateful to be part of this community!
A sanity blanket… your lovely byproduct of coping. This is wonderful, Marie. And I’m so happy you’re enjoying your trip and are heading into year 2. Goodness all around!
Checking in on day 236. Have a few minor errands to run today before hitting a meeting.
An exciting post-army career opportunity has presented itself for next year and I am actively pursuing it. The job will be a bit less pay than I could make in option b, but will provide an incredible schedule and much more personally fulfilling work.
When drinking I would never have considered taking a job that revolves around serving others and that pays less, but in sobriety I am finding so much more happiness in service and time off with my family than in a fatter wallet. Have a wonderful day everyone.
I love how it’s all come about over the year. Absolutley packed full of memories of your first year in recovery. Priceless gift to yourself, so proud of you.
Checking in this morning.
Another morning waking up full of shame and regret for all the losses recently. My mind likes to ruminate on all the bad things that happened to me as soon as I’m awake. It’s frustrating and it won’t stop. I did some wim hof breathing exercises and a short mindfully breathing exercise then got out of bed. I managed to make some coffee and now I sit here and ponder what to do today. I’ve got very little motivation but know I have to get a ton of things done before the kids come tomorrow morning. Groceries laundry cleaning. I wonder to myself how I’m going to get through another weekend and be present with my kids. Every day seems like the last, no joy or excitement, no happiness just shame and sadness. I’m going to try and finish this coffee, shower and push myself to get stuff done. Hope everyone has a good day today.
I hope everyone has an amazing day. Love seeing the milestones this morning, lots to celebrate!!! I also see the love and support for Danni day after day, myself included, and it is so heartwarming to me, so grateful to be part of this community!
It’s another gloomy grey work day. Nevermind. I ain’t gonna drink today.
Congrats on 7 days!!
