Checking in - Day 32
Today, I decided to work from home. Slept in and bought a coffee and lemonade tea for my sweetheart. Iām going to work on a presentation for an upcoming conference and I actually have a video interview this afternoon. Keep me in your prayers that God opens a door for me.
Probably going to the record store this late afternoon

Good morning friends - day 517! If you celebrate this weekend, I hope you have an awesome Easter weekend! My company has Good Friday as a company holiday (because NYSE is closed) and I also took off Monday. Looking forward to a nice long weekend away from work. Picked up some drywall this morning for my bathroom project - probably put in a lot of time there tomorrow and Monday. Today, Linda and I are going to the movies! First time in a while and we have a brand new theater near our house that we want to try - those recliner seats, etcā¦
Have an awesome day! I am going to do mine sober!

Checking in 5.3 years sober. I am finally on Step 9: āMade direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.ā My sponsor is having me do a living amends to myself for negative self talk that causes me harm. I will also do an amends to my older brother for drunk-texting him back when I was drinking. The gist of it was that he used to pick on me when I was growing up and this caused me a lot of issues later in life, like lack of self-confidence, that I felt kept me from achieving what I wanted. I blamed him in my texts - so I owe him an apology. He is a good brother now!

About to leave for Los Angels for a concert with my wife tonight. Then, tomorrow morning we fly to Cabo for a week. Non of this would have been possible if I wasnāt clean.

1563 Wanted to do a quick check-in. Iām so excited to prepare Easter for the kids this year. The twins and the baby donāt know what the Easter Bunny is, so Iāve had a blast shopping for baskets and treats!
Be kind friends! Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!

So tired. So tired. Trying to figure out what to do next.
Day 41.
Unexpected trigger at a grocery store i havent been to since i got sober. Id usually pick up some cider and wine. I walked through that aisle and got a non alcoholic soda. I got coffee and a frozen tiramisu.
The frozen food i got has clearly been thawed and put back in so i might have to call and get a replacement??? I dont even know what to do about that, it hasnt happened before.
Very overwhelmed so i might sit and commit to at least finishing art. Sold a piece i loved to a friend for a little less than it was worth.

Iām sorry to read that youāre feeling overwhelmed. I simply donāt go down those aisles at a market. Even at 8 months sober, itās like Iām teasing myself to see what Iāll do. Know that these triggers become easier to manage, and happen a lot less, the longer you stay sober. Sending you hugs and strength. 
Great job on 41 days!

Thinking of youā¤ļø it must be hard when the grocery stores sell alcohol. We only have one grocery store around that sells wine but most donāt.
How frustrating about the frozen food!!!
I hope you are feeling less overwhelmed. Did you end up doing some art?
