I realized I’m on DAY 30! I was thinking today was 29 .
@Daishippai CONGRATULATIONS! We did it!
Absolutely !! I guess that I had not realised it either.
Well I must say that I’m pleased for both of us… next target is 45 days (even though that’s not in the application).
I hope that you’re having a nice weekend. I’m (obviously) working away right now, but a little later (it’s only 08:35 here), I’ll take another carload of stuff over to my new place.
What are your plans for today ?
It’s going to be pretty darn warm again here today, around 32C… I can’t wait to move back to Switzerland, the temperature in the area where I hope to find a flat is normally 8 to 10 degrees cooler than here !
Anyway, congratulations… I was sure that you would make it.
Day 58 for me today troops been working hard and spending all time with family saved for a car and away pick it up today hope everyone is good
Nicely done Brian!
A really healthy thing to do! Thanks for the advice!
A few hours shy of “officially” day 16.
I sent the message I’ve been writing, and re-writing, and re-re-writing, to my ex. I can’t keep holding on to what I know I can’t change, but it felt like I owed him a real apology. Taking responsibility for how I acted towards the end felt right, too.
I don’t expect much, if anything, back. “Thank you, I’m sorry too, hope you’re doing good,” will probably be verbatim the response if he does choose to reply. I just hope he’ll read it and know it’s sincere.
Went to my sister’s house tonight and enjoyed a couple of la croix while she sipped wine, which wasn’t an issue. Emotionally and socially I’m starting to feel more solid in my sobriety.
We talked about going kayaking tomorrow which does sound fun. The sunburn I’ll inevitably have after will say otherwise. If it’s gnarly enough I’ll post a photo so we can all have a good laugh
Hope everyone is having a good start or finish to the day
Congratulations to sober 3 months!

Coffee. Time for some house chores and some personal ones today. Taking my time. Yesterday I biked to my two favourite organic shops, one a grower/producer and the other one a dairy farm. They’re located on either side of town and it turned out to be further then I thought. Had a good workout but need to recoup a bit today.
Hoping for a good Sunday for all of you, or at least as good as you all can. Making it sober and clean is the first condition for that. We’re here for a reason and living clean and sober is it. One day at a time. Recovery works if you work it. Recovery is a work of love. Love from the dairy farm.
Best picture ever.
Day 12 of sobriety. It’s hard but it feels good too. I’ll get there
Congrats on 12 days and welcome to Talking Sober Kobby! Living sober isn’t easy, especially early on, but so worth it! And doing it together with others makes it so much better to do. So glad to have you aboard. Read, support, get support, share. Or just be around. Being here helped me so much and I hope it can be of just as much help to you. Have a great stay and a great day!
I use the app, which is called Sober Time globally, only for my day counts Brian. I’m using this forum -globally known as Talking Sober- in a web browser. Talking Sober the forum is integrated in Sober Time the app. A bit confusing maybe yes.
@Butterflymoonwoman Big hugs lady. You work hard in your job and recovery, are creative with your cakes and kind and generous with your words here. You deserve appreciation.
@maxwell @Daishippai Congratulations
Day 698
Nice day today, had lunch and coffee with a group of other foreign mums. Stayed late chatting, with few feelings of awkwardness, perhaps I’m finally getting better at this social interaction thing, and came home to dinner already made by husband. Going to host the AA meeting later as the current person is busy today.
Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words. It means a lot to me. I’m glad to be here too
Thanks brother. I appreciate the encouragement
Whoo hoo! Congratulations
