Day 10082
Well, I woke up this morning to find all my poor angelfish deceased except one and she isn’t likely to make it either. I’m really sad about it. They gave me serenity during hard times. I’m going to miss my babies.
I decided to get really real with you today. As I told you before I’m in process of finding out if I have lung cancer. I’m going through pretty violent swings of emotions and such. But here is my biggest issue. I’m still a smoker. I gave up booze, meth and weed. That was a cakewalk compared to nicotine. Talk about an emotional crutch. I’d like to quit but I run from why bother now all the way to well it’s your fault, what did you expect. Honestly, I never relapsed on quitting my drug addiction but have relapsed so many times on cigs that I completely understand how folk feel when they reset here. It’s so hard. But I’m thinking of NOT going to the store today and buying a new pack and starting an accountability timer on here. Perhaps using that and having you all at my back I can do it this time.
Sitting out back in the Florida room watching nature. I saw two squirrels arguing with a woodpecker a bit ago. The squirrels won 
Got my one eyed cat curled up in my lap and the chihuahuas are chasing each other around our 3/4 acre backyard. Grandson’s dog is at my feet with his head on them. It’s funny how animals are so in tune with us. They are giving me so much love lately and following me from room to room.
I found this app a few months ago and the miracle of recovery has given me so many people here that I cherish and memories to hold tight to. I find strength here when I have none. Thank you for being here for me.

Oh no. I am so sorry to hear about your babies. I always loved how angelfish looked, they were one of my favorites growing up. Be kind to yourself as you grieve. And sending strength to you in kicking the cigs! I know there’s a thread on here for people quitting nicotine, if that is something that might help support you in that effort.

42 days free of gambling, my brain chemistry has started to reset and repair and urges are almost gone. When I get one I am strong enough to resist.
Feel fantastic and absolutely flying!

Day 107 here.
A lot of mulling things over going on here. An alcoholic former friend keeps emailing (I blocked him on every other channel) to ask if I’d like to meet for coffee and a chat. I made it clear that I want nothing to do with him unless he’s in recovery, but still he asks.
I’m also feeling frustrated about my parents’ drinking and again ruminating a lot.
I got the Insight Timer app after it was mentioned here several times. So far I really like it.
The kids are back at school on Wednesday so the next couple of days are just about getting ready for that. I’ll give my son a haircut and my daughter has been parading about in her new uniform. Lovely to see!

Hi everyone,
3 weeks today. I had some busy week and didn’t have time to be here as much as I like to.
Now today I have some rest and the urge to get some drink is immense. Oh man a hard one today but we must stay strong.
Everyone have a great day
