I didn’t sneak it into the house, I just brought it back to Plattsburgh to this guy’s friends house. The staff doesn’t care what we do outside the house. But no they wouldn’t want it in the house. So I had the guy meet me at the gym and he brought it to his friends house. So it was snuck back in a sense which I wasn’t happy about. I’m already in the process of getting it back home and told on myself one of the councilors

Hey Rob,

Checking in. It’s been awhile.


No extra added sugar 2 Weeks

Been busy and doing really well since my last check in. I’m grateful for my Al-Anon meetings. I’m grateful to be blessed to be working 2 recovery programs. I’m grateful I have those programs. I may not follow them exactly but I will have them. I’m grateful I love and live with a constant reminder I never want to go back to drinking again.

I’m grateful to know this to be true :point_down:
Once alcohol is in the system the body wants more. The desire to drink gets the first drink in. The first drink does the rest of it.

Let’s not pick up that first drink today!

Congrats on day 6 Crafty. I spent a lot of time apologizing my first few weeks. Over and over again. Sometimes people, especially loved ones, forgot I had quit drinking. And I was soooo angry I can’t drink like a normie.

I would love to live in Germany! The only problem with plumbing is my back won’t last but a year longer in the trade the surgeon told me so I’d have to learn something else :sunglasses::metal:t2:

Great job :clap::clap::clap:

Congrats on your marriage!!!

Good job.

Don’t forget that the drugs are just a symptom of our disease. We need to stay ontop of our behavior.

Honesty
Open-mindedness
Willingness

If you don’t have honesty you have nothing. I am proud of you for seeing your behavior for what it was and calling yourself out. Stay on your toes, this disease is cunning and powerful. :heart:

How about computer repair?

Day 40 free from alcohol
Day 21 free from toxic guy

I am sooooo f×cking relaxed :scream: :woman_in_lotus_position:t2: :swimming_woman:t2: :blue_heart:

Bike ride yesterday in the evening in the inner city was very cool, even feeled save on the way back in the dark. :biking_woman:t2: Group therapy was
 I don’t know, bit annoying! :yawning_face:

This morning i had a short yoga sequence and afterwards a swim workout (with new training partner) of 3000 meters :blue_heart::muscle:t2:
 So I finished month August in total with 45km which is approximately 28 miles! Waaahaaaa
 Call me queen :swimming_woman:t2:

By the way
 New swim partner and beginning friendship has NOT gone
 Of cause!
He is happy to know me. I am relaxed, my anxiety was not appropriate. He is contacting me, we have a lot of fun, talking, swimming, sometimes flirting. I try to save this good experience and overwrite old shit
 And enjoy! :revolving_hearts:

I took the cold shower again after workout and cuddled me in my warm clothes afterwards. This is such a wellness feeling.

Lunch was glutenfree gnochi with homemade tomato sauce and Parmesan and as dessert a vegan protein bar with peanuts. :grin::muscle:t2:

After that I had a looooing Siesta Napping and hanging around my bed. :yawning_face:

For dinner I will have some Turkish Köffte
and salad. :falafel::green_salad: Rest of yesterday’s pumpkin quiche is freezed (for the bad times :sweat_smile:)!

I don’t have cravings
 Not for alcohol and not for toxic relationship-shit.

Soo passionate with sports. :heart_eyes: I will hop on the mat for some yoga before dinner. :woman_in_lotus_position:t2:

Sending muuuuuuch love :revolving_hearts::blue_heart:
Take care and stay sober! :v:t2:

Back to day one checking in after taking a break for a while! Day 15 clean of self harm! So proud of myself!

I finally gave myself to God. And just studying the Smith Wigglesworth devotional and reading my Bible for the past couple days have really helped me!

Im honestly tired of beating around the bush. (I’ll make a post about it feel free to read and comment help and advice needed)

I’m sorry that they weren’t more understanding. That must have been so hard.

Oh no. I didn’t mean they weren’t understanding. They were very understanding and supportive. They Just simply forgot i had quit drinking. And that was why I was so irritable and angry at everything. And my apologies we very appreciated and a good reminder for them about what I was doing.
:blush:
And it was hard.
But it got easier.
