Good morning all! Checking in, day 20.
Congrats on 90 days @TigerMatriarch 
. I am so happy to see this and so proud of you! 
We got tons of snow here too so there is going to be some outdoor fun today 
Congrats on 4 years @Complicatedmama! Wow! Just incredible, that is inspiring 
There are lots of milestones to celebrate so congrats to all .
Did a lot of shoveling this morning, started at 5am so I am currently resting. My hubby is still pretty sick with Covid, luckily the kids are ok now. So I will be disinfecting and washing everything again today. I wish the hubby would turn the corner and start to get better, I’ll be super stressed until he does. I was already looking forward to our spring break trip in March but that’s taking on a whole new meaning now 
. I hope everyone has the most amazing day, I appreciate each and every one of you!!

I can’t like this post enough, Eric! I honestly can’t believe it’s been 2 years. I remember when you first joined TLC! So happy for you. You managed to get and stay sober, discover freedom from alcohol, lots of not drinking today and probably not drinking tomorrow’s in what has been an incredibly challenging two years for most of this world. I’m inspired by you and your journey. You absolutely have a major hand in my getting sober in March. I can’t thank you enough, dear friend. The best is yet to be!

Checking in on day 205. I have been battling a profound sense of emptiness lately. I have had some time off work, and I am the type of person who gets restless and rudderless without some kind of project to focus on. My partner and I have been quarreling a bit lately. Tomorrow I will try to go back to work, and I am hoping that the return to structure will help to improve this uneasiness. This is impermanent, and I will not try to fill the emptiness with alcohol.
Congratulations @Complicatedmama Patty on four years and @Dazercat Eric on two years! I am grateful for your presence here on TS!

Today my day has been all over “meh”… but I didn’t screw up. When I passed the gas station this afternoon, it actually crossed my mind to stop and buy wine and cigarettes… WTF was I thinking?? 
Instead I decided to play the tape forward, and vent here…

510 days no alcohol.
71 days no nicotine
9 days no binge-eating.
2 days no cocaine.
Back with 2 days off cocaine. I’ve mostly been asleep since early on NYE after barely getting any sleep at all for 5 days/nights, so have just spent the last 3 hours catching up here. It has really helped. I’m struggling massively with my addict, he wants everything and anything and is trying very hard to make me give in, he will soon learn that I’m not going to though. Things got very scary very quickly, so I’m very grateful to have survived the relapse. The binge-eating demon is even awake today, but I can’t order food because of the diabetes, so I won’t give in to him either. The nicotine demon is saying ‘pick me, pick me!’ but I don’t even want to go back there, I want to be free of all previous addictions.
I ran out of hearts about 150 posts ago, but please know I support everyone’s recovery.

Day 6 sober! Good to start 2022 without drinks, abd looking forward to a walk with the dogs abd a visit from a friend. Hoping this is a year of small joys and gentle emotions, 2021 was too much of a roller coaster.
