Checking in daily to maintain focus #37

375 days

Despite being freezing last night and normally being a couch potato :potato: I went to the gym, for a swim, sauna, steam etc it was quiet as late, totally loved it and slept so much better, so going to try and do this once a week at least.

@Twizzlers congrats on 100 days :clap:
@anon57836609 well done on your booking of theory exam, good luck

I think the universe is innocent in this situation. I think itā€™s Mr floofy and the gang ā€œsabotagingā€ you so they wonā€™t lose you :upside_down_face:

Lmaoooo maybe LOL! :thinking:

Anything is possible at this point :rofl:

It does make me very sad thinking about me moving and not having them with me every day. Very sad.

I know that feeling of borderline. Itā€™s hard and exhausting and Iā€™ve never pulled through successfully. That takes enormous strain and you did it. I am very proud of you :smiley:

If you do feel sad after leaving them, think about the new inhabitants who will be stalked by a random gang of cockatoos :joy:

Who ever the new tenant will be that moves into my apartment will be harrased by a gang of cockatoos smashing into the window at 6am wanting to be feed loll :sweat_smile:

#Day 1205 :seedling:
Tapering down my coffee intake, so far so good :wink:
This week I have to work a lot. One of my co workers is in quarantine because her husband and son has Covid. We were already short in fellow workers and now even more, so all who are still on their feet has to work :see_no_evil:
Omikron is floating right now in the Netherlands, I hope we can manage it :crossed_fingers:


My picture from my yesterday walk werenā€™t that special so I share this one. This was the fox me and my oldest son saw a week ago at 31 december. He shot a foggy picture from it so next day we went again. I must say getting up early at the 1th of january is a bit difficult but we did! And look at our present! He (ore she) was there again and this time we made a better picture from this gorgeous creature!! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
2022 couldnā€™t start better for us!! :tada::tada::tada:

Check in on day 4.
Made some good coffee.

Feel good! Just had another therapy session. Been too long since my last one. I feel so grounded and sane afterwards. I need that feeling.
I discussed my drinking going off tracks with her as well. Sheā€™s glad I noticed the increase in my drinking pattern again. So I told her Iā€™m going to stay sober for the time being. The holidays were too rough. I let go of my boundaries just a little (wich feels like a lot to me) so I pulled the alarm. And Iā€™m glad I did so!

Coming back to the app and forum has given me a feeling of accountabillity again. I needed that more than I imagined. Iā€™m so gratefull for this place :heart:

Thank you for existing!

Have a great sober day! One day at a time.

  1. Coffee. Bit of a recoup day from yesterdayā€™s long van drive through some awful weather conditions. Had a good time with my friend. We didnā€™t cause any obvious damage to our bodies by carrying a couch up and down stairs. We didnā€™t fight. We (I in particular) stayed sober and clean. Wins all around.
    I might go for a little walk in a bit. I see sunshine. Feeling pretty good this morning. Hope you all do too, or at least as good as you all can. Have a good clean and sober day friends. Love from Amsterdam.

@Twizzlers Triple digits! Yay! Congrats!
@Butterflymoonwoman Belated congrats on your full week Dana. Awesome work!

Thatā€™s a beautiful picture. The colour of the fox stands out perfectly, just off centre,with a very faint thin glow around him that stands him out more. :star:
