massive, huge congrats from over here well done.
1st dayā¦again. Hope I can get through this
Iām glad youāre here
Checking in on day 308. I just stumbled on my partnerās stash of little wines hidden from me in the basement. I wasnāt aware that they were in the house, and I am having some really difficult feelings about it. I am still processing it I guess. Not even sure what I am feeling about it. I mean, she has every right to enjoy things that I am not able to, so why is it so jarring to me? Iām not angry or anything. Just a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach.
Blah, itās been a hell of a week. Kinda glad itās over. I have a headache and I am going to bed early. Sober on, friends.
Yay!!! Way to to Incredible work!

Congratulations on day 1. Itās a great day to be sober.
ODAAT.
Really bored tonight! Kind of driving me crazy lol. No kids or anything in the house so itās super quiet. Not worried about drinking or anything though so thatās good! Hope everyone has had a great day!
Quick Check in
Day 181
Didnāt get a chance to read everyoneās post, but Iāll check em out later. My bad. I think got the flu. These chills are effin with me.
Popped a couple of Tylenols. Think Iām good.
Take it easy, fam.
Welcome! Itās great to have u here!!!
Hope you feel better soon!!!
Day 625
Iām going to quit my job. I donāt yet know when, and I donāt know what I will pursue next, but Iām starting to take the steps in that direction. Staying for much longer feels like I will lose too much of myself - feels like Iām barely hanging on as it is.
Just hit 2 weeksā¦F-ya!!!
Check in
Day 60
Overall decent day! Was worried about using and predicting hubby asking me about it, but he never did. Grateful honestly that he isnāt an addict like myself, and grateful that he respects my decision to not use and never ever pushes it on me. The odd time when he does ask, and I say no, he is fine with that answer and doesnāt pout about it. Instead we had cake and he did his tattoo and a tattoo on my sternum Relaxed watching TV and now Iām doing some self care, heading to bed, and resting up for work tmrw. Been a good day! Grateful for my HP and for my recovery and for you all!
@Butterflymoonwoman congrats on 60 days! Good job! Thatās a dope set up for your hubby. Iām sure he loved it. That was very nice of you.
@Miranda ty. I think I am good. I took a couple of pills. I hope youāre doing okay too with your sobriety. It gets easier after time, you just gotta push yourself. My wifey has a fridge full of Trulys, and my nephew forgot 5 IPA tall cans. I havenāt touched any. I still get cravings, but itās rare.
@anon53116147 hope your daughters feel better soon. Stay strong, bro. Glad youāre back.
@Seb congrats on 100 days. Keep it going.
@Rockstar24777 Sup neighbor. We love u too. Bro.
@FAE1 thatās right. We are all here for a reason. We only live once. Life is too short for BS. Every day is a second chance.
@Complicatedmama that hit me too. I donāt do too many hugs, but I try fist bumps.
@Hotic congrats on 1200
Good Morning, Evening and everything in between,

No coffee yet! Will right that wrong soon. Prague is beautiful. Moving up country in a bit. Sober and clean.
Have a good Easter Weekend all, or at least as good as you can. Love from Prague.
I just had the same experience. I opened the fridge to find a tall boy of my brand of beer. Why would my husband buy that? Then I realized that I donāt have to obsess about that I just have to not drink it. Stay strong. Iāll be over here not drinking mine if you need me.
Congratulations!! Iām so happy for you! Look at that amazing blue line going straight UP
I love it! Proud of you lady!
#Day 1305
Downloaded the Dutch translation of the Recovery Dharma book. Found there is a Recovery Dharma community in the Netherlands as well. Curious about it so downloaded the free pdf file of the book.
Iām in a good mood today. Iām asked to temporary run the shop as a shop manager and I accepted. So more salary, more working houres and responsibility. It gives me a bit stress as well because immidiately my head is starting to give me the ābut what if?ā
To help me shut that anxious inner voice down I focus on today. Today Iām not at work, today Iām off from work, today Iām going for a long walk with hubby and my 2 eldest, today Iām going to enjoy the sun, nature and family
Gratefull for this new step in life. A new opportunity to grow!
