I should have hit the gratitude thread first, because everything I think of is about being thankful. :blush: Iā€™m happy Iā€™ll be going into the new year with 142 days of sobriety. Itā€™s definitely a huge change for me. For the past many years, I never had to use NYE or Christmas or any other holiday as an excuse to drinkā€¦ I was normally already drunk. Itā€™s funny how very few people knew how bad it had gotten. I handled hiding it well. Iā€™m glad I donā€™t have to anymore. Over drinking was a waste of my mind and my energy.

I donā€™t do New Yearā€™s resolutions, but I think for 2022 Iā€™m going to make some commitments to myself. Thank you, Eric @Dazercat, for the suggested daily readings. I already have the book ready to go for tomorrow. :kissing_heart: Iā€™m also going to start off the new year with the plank challenge. Covid hit me during the November/December challenges, but Iā€™m feeling up to it now. Thatā€™s itā€¦ I donā€™t want to overwhelm myself with trying to make a ton of changes. Being sober is more than enough for me.

Yā€™all be strong and safe. Much love :heart:

Edit to add: My book came in yesterday, Becky! @Ravikamor :partying_face: Iā€™m going to start it today. Even though I already have two going. :crazy_face:

Hey everybody checking in on Day 149

Feeling great except had a using dream last night to do with Ritalin pills, it wasnā€™t a good using dream where I said No for my recovery, in my dream I was all addict and gobbled the pills back like no tomorrow. Ah well it serves to remind me what still lives inside me and to be cautious.

Well today I still need to clean apartment. Definitely hit a Zoom NA meeting tonight
And hit the gym soon

@Butterflymoonwoman I am so happy you are going to meetings!
@SoberWalker congrats on 1200 days huge achievement!

Ahhh I hate those using dreams too :frowning: always makes me wake up in a weird mood. Ya I have been enjoying the meetings. I feel like I really need to step up my recovery game abit. I put ALOT of energy into using (:confounded:) and so I need to do the same for my recovery. I really hope 2022 is a wonderful year for you Kat :slight_smile: itā€™s always been so wonderful to hear ur progress and read all ur posts :slight_smile: hugs my friend
