Checking in, 1990 days, I managed 7 work hours yesterday as well driving my twins to all their activities. Will try for the same today, or maybe more ā I donāt have to do as much driving around today but I would like to try to make a home-cooked meal. Have a good sober day, everyone!

Finishing up landscaping work today , one more area of sod to lay ā¦ minor areas to clean up ā¦ got a break cause of the rain . Made a pizza and drinking some whey protein. Trying to get away from Using caffeine as my energy source as it produces anxious feelings and is short lived with a crash ā¦ so Iām trying to eat for energy .
Basic goals today
- Look up these typing classes my friend sent me and resume builder
- Call some alcoholics
- Clean room
- Wash clothes
- Play guitar
- Ride bike into downtown when it cools down
I hope everyone has a good day ā¦ stay strong and donāt be afraid to reach out ā¦ I realize that for me ā¦ communication is probably half the reason Iām still sober

Extremely bad day so far, very negative exchange with my mother, who is a deeply toxic person. I spent the morning googling things I wonāt put here due to potentially triggering someone but then signed up for therapy on betterhelp. Iāll try that for a month and see how it goes because my mental health is absolutely awful. Less desire than ever to drink though, weirdly.

Feeling under the weather today, it started last night with a sore throat that was quite bad this morning. Now fever and chills and achy. We have a friend coming to town to visit tonight for the weekend so this timing is awful. Iāll have to take a COVID testā¦ugh. Trying not to feel too sorry for myself and just rest up.

Got out of work early 
in the past i would have bought a whole bunch of alcohol and not stopped drinking until monday. I was a little nervous coming home but this is a safe placeā¦ i already made the decision not to drink today so theres no negotiation. I just dont like that my mind even goes there. Oh well i guess this is recovery

I really appreciate that! I agree and I spent enough time destroying so I can spend the time building!

Good luck on that. I honestly was never able to make it past the 10K. 26 miles is an insane amount of running.

Checking in on day 384. Last day of school for all of our kiddos. Our second oldest son was awarded student of the year for his 6th grade class out of 300+ kids so that was awesome to see. He had no idea it was coming. Super proud parent moment for us. Wifeās work wasnāt going to let her attend the kidsā awards ceremonies today with a weeks notice so she called out this morning the day of. Glad she did, we had a great day together celebrating the kidsā accomplishments. Work will replace you tomorrow if you quit, family generally wonāt. Have a great day everyone. Itās a great day to be above ground and sober.
