Oh no I think I may have been mis understood, I know ppl care and all that im just saying thatā€™s what my mind says, bc itā€™s all I talk about lol. I know some ppl are going to care and some are not. Iā€™m fine with that. Itā€™s just like when we takes selfies and post in the sober selfies, of course we want some love on it we were feeling are selves for a little bit.

Day 1198 AF and 2 days without sweeteners. I am so tired. I will see.
And I am worried more and more about a possible war in Europe.
I am grateful to be sober and grateful that I am no politician.

Morning check in!
Today I woke up feeling pretty crappy. But I am determined to change my outlook! I am going full force into my spirituality from here on out. I truly truly CAN NOT live my life without thd guidance of something Greater than myself. I am so done living my life on self will and trying to run the show. My best thinking gets me in the worst case scenerios. So today I was invited to join in on a zoom mtg (every Monday) with women who are believers of God but have been through very similar thingsā€¦ drug addiction and prostitution. It was wonderful to also be around other women on a similar path. I know some of them and some I donā€™t. But it was just so nice to join in and to praise God and to learn new tools. I prayed to Godā€¦ literally getting down on my knees and praying. I find getting down on my knees very vulnerable and something I dont really like feeling, but knowing that I am safe and surrendering to my addiction and to absolutely everything in my life is such a good feeling. The trouble I have is keeping that momentumā€¦ just like with my clean time, I am willing to do anything when I slip, but when Iā€™m feeling better I start to slide on what has gotten me that far. I am so grateful to be clean today and Iā€™m grateful for God in my life :butterfly:

Just another Monday and yet not. My country calls this day Friendsā€™ Day, which means we celebrate all friendships :purple_heart: So with that in mind, have a great Valentineā€™s Day.

With special note for @Laraellelarissa on your AMAZING milestone!!! I share my roses that I got for today :heart:

Back up to 44 daysā€¦ My sponsor has asked me ā€˜thatā€™ questionā€¦ The one you shouldnā€™t really say no to, to move forward in your recovery, to do a chairā€¦:grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::grimacing::woozy_face:ā€¦
Donā€™t wanna think about it too muchā€¦ havenā€™t done a chair since my rehap days in my early 20ā€™sā€¦

Good catch! I set a personal milestone on the app at 1098 days and then an alarm so I could get 1098.76. No regrets :laughing:
