Day 16! I’m very grateful to be here with you all we are a football family so hoping our packers get another win tonight. Having a little get together with family no alcohol for myself and three others. My hubby still drinks but he’s a normal drinker and he doesn’t drink my doc which is Chardonnay so it’s all good . Blessings to everyone and your accomplishments that are awesome and give us newer sober people so much hope!
Very cool! Congrats on day 16.
So very Awesome!
Made it to day two. Thank you so much to everyone who liked my post, welcomed me, and gave me wonderful advice and support. That’s exactly why I decided to post here, it really is a safe space of people who understand my struggles without having to know me personally. It’s kind of unreal.
Busy day, so I can’t respond more fully, but I read all of it and appreciate it so much
I hope everyone has a wonderful day
I feel the same way about you.
Hello wonderful people!
Kat here checking in on Day 171 feeling good!
I have sons #1 and #3 for the weekend, they are 15 and 12. Made them bacon and eggs which might hold them a few hrs!
My eldest has to get some homework done while he’s here so my ex dropped off (and gave him directly) his adhd meds. I am a little sad not to be trusted but I have abused those meds in the past to the point my ex had to get two safes to keep me out of them. I honestly feel where I am in my sobriety I would not have taken them but I don’t blame my ex for not trusting me. In a way also, he is safeguarding my sobriety (he still cares for me very much. Does my taxes even).
So life is good going to hit a meeting tonight as usual and I think today going to do some recovery reading as the JFT suggests.
Love, Kat
Day 575 of sobriety. We had brunch today with roomies plus our new friend. The brinch ended up being almost 6 hours. We talked about everything and I realised that the person I am, is good enough. Sure I have really bad issues that I struggle with still, but that’s the thing, those struggles do not equal me. They are a part of me, and I need to deal with them. But otherwise, I am sober and I am good with my morals and decisions in life. I’m not everyones cup of tea and I don’t need to be. Just need to be my own.
Struggling yet content. Life’s good.
Checking in
Day24
I sooo appreciate everyone helping me this morning with my recovery question on slacking in recovery. I feel good about what I need to do next for my recovery.
I am feeling super anxious tho. My heart is racing and I have all kinds of thoughts in my head. My hubby just texted me not long ago. They had the bachelor party out at his boss’ cabin last night. I was seeing him read the text messages I sent this morning but he wasn’t responding back. I was actually getting abit worried and I told him that. He finally got back to me and said he was back at his boss’ place now (and not at the cabin). He said he tried texting but it wouldn’t send. Anyways my nerves are shot. I have every scenario going thru my head right now. And I am completely trying to focus on managing my own emotions and thinking. I don’t want him to come thru the door and me start bitching and displacing my anger out on him for no good reason. So im getting it out now. And then see how this day turns out. I am going out for abit once he gets home. So ya… this whole event he went to just triggered so much in me from past “stuff”
I actually ask people I text on the regular to turn off read receipts cos they give me anxiety.
I’m glad everything turned out well with your husband
That might be a good idea for me too actually. He hasn’t come home yet but he said he will be heading out soon.
Hello everyone. I’m checking in. Day 89. I am grateful. Sobriety is awesome!
But today is another sad day. I shared earlier about my friend that passed away from Covid. I went to his funeral this morning.
Wishing everyone a blessed sober Saturday.
It’s really helped. Give it a try for a week and see how you feel
