Day 580
Talked to my sponsor for the first time in about a month. Have been spiraling a bit lately, not in terms of drinking, but in terms of personal relations, self esteem. It was very cathartic and I feel back on track. She told me about “having a life too big to fit in a bottle”, and that is what I have. It is not perfect by any means, but alcohol just could not be a part of it anymore.
day 3. No alcohol today!
Good Morning all.
Happy Monday. Feeling a bit off/tired with the time change. So going to take it easy.
Working today. Crew are on March break. Going to do my best to have some fun activities in the evening and next weekend for them.
My youngest is at his Dad’s for a few days.
Strong and sober 24 all
Morning all,
Day 117 just checking in. Have a great day everyone.
Hey all, checking in on day 638. I hope everybody has a good one!
Made it through a week and feel great. Pretty windy out here today. Today after I get 2 kids off to school I’ll be loading the other 2 up and driving up to Denver to drop off a ton of donations we’ve been collecting to send to Ukraine. Probably stop for a nice lunch and then reward my son who did an awesome job in the barn yesterday. I don’t think the previous owners ever scraped the stalls.
Tonight we will start some seedlings in the house to transplant after the last frost. My 2nd oldest is excited. She will always have to live at home and she graduates this year, so she wanted something for “work” that was hers to maintain, so we decided on turning 1/4 acre into a big garden that she can tend (with my help of course).
Day 22 AF
I’m late to the party, Eric, but congrats on 800 days of not drinking today and probably not drinking tomorrow’s. I’m finishing up my long weekend in AZ. Sedona was indeed magical. Will get to Flagstaff someday. Keep on trucking, my friend. Best of luck with condo sale.
Day 16 Feeling Gr8
Hey everyone! Day 15 here. Doing good and staying strong. Still feeling proud of myself after yesterday. I’ve got a busy week with work which will help me to stay focused and not think about drinking. One day at a time!
Happy Monday!
Good afternoon everyone. Checking in on day 206. Pup is back to full puppy mode which is good and bad haha. Have to make sure no stitches bust but glad she’s perking up. Hope everyone has a good day, mine will be spent writing a paper I should of started a month ago……
Day 640 clean and sober today. I hope everyone has an amazing day, love you guys!!!
Day 10
I had a rough day. At work we’re understaffed so we had a lot of stress. I hope that gets easier tomorrow. But my main problem today was a friend of mine.
We know each other almost 20 years. He’s kinda family for me. Since Covid started he became something we call Schwurbler. There is no adequate translation in English. Those are ppl who believe that Covid is fake, that there are big bosses who want us to suffer so they get more control. And he’s an anti vaccer too. Like those Q Anon people.
I want us to have no contact but he keeps writing me. I tried to block him but it doesn’t work the way I want. It’s just really something I can’t handle right now and I told him. But he doesn’t see my concern, he is always right etc. I’m sure you know those ppl.
Yeah…I need some really good food today to calm me down and relax.
I’ll stay sober today, I know drinking won’t help.
Thanks for reading
Have a beautiful sober day team
Tell him to respect your choices as you do his, as far as vax and non vax situation. Individual choices.
I told him. And I don’t want messages from him any more, I was very clear. I hope he respects it now. Damn…
Thanks Jenny. Appreciate it. And all you’re strength and courage too. I hope you do look us up here in Flag. I’m Glad you had a nice time down the road.
Hey guys. I did not checking the few last days.
I actually had a relapse on friday and sunday. I felt a little shameful to check in.
But here I am again at day 1. I know that its a difficult journey and I need all the help and support I can get. You guys made my recent streaks really easy and pleasant.
I am really greatful to be here and thank you so much for always supporting.
@KevinesKay @SelfLove_42 I sometimes feel that I let you guys down. You both give me great advice. Thank you so much.
I feel a little sad and tired. But I am ready to get back up and do the work.
Hope you have a great day. Love you.
Checking in, day 3 of no smoking. I used to smoke during the evenings, not even one in the daytime, just caught up with the whole daily dose in a few hours late nights. That amount made me feel dizzy and knocked out, well, that was the point actually. So now daytime is ok, the evening is the difficult time of the day, it’s hard to focus on anything, I cannot watch a film or read. Eating is the only activity that can help to relax a bit. I’m glad that I won’t meet my friend in the near future, I have never spent any time with her without using alcohol and/or cigarettes (besides school time), and cannot even imagine how could that be possible, she is the strongest trigger in my life. Now I have a few months to strengthen myself being smoke-free until we meet again.
Checking in
Day28
Had an early meditation And now dealing with a few issues that are testing my patience. Did make sure that I attended my prayer group thru zoom. It was a beautiful 1.5 hours of chatting and prayer and praise and discussion. Was very nice! I’m feeling quite frustrated and I’m exhausted of dealing with the same issue. But that’s okay. Fear or faith right? No need for me to live in worry or fear, what good does that do? Having faith and asking for guidance from my HP, to take the next right action is all im doing today. Done struggling quite frankly with things. It takes the joy out of the day. Anyway… going to work on my drramcatcher today and clean
