My faith is always a work in progress. I also have to find time to ask God to handle what I cant, so I can relate to all of your feelings too in your post above.

Its true tho, everything I do thru my HP has been gifted with blessings. Everything I’ve done w/o him hasnt been fruitful. Truly awesome looking back, how he has saved me so many times, most certainly from myself.

Day 2 done! Late night check in. Had a day at home. Planned a lot, accomplished little. Thats what days off are for.:wink:. Never had any thoughts on having a drink, thats an accomplishment I suppose.
Looking forward to a good nights sleep just as we move into day 3.
Goodnight everyone of you. :hugs:

Day 710. Feeling strong in my sobriety. My blues and stresses I’ve been dealing with seem a bit better. I’m in a great spot in my life, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. Life’s not easy. I am very lucky for my life. It is much better without alcohol. My life before was a constant struggle just to keep my head afloat. Fuck that! I’ll take each struggle as they come and deal with them the best I can at that moment.

Thinking of you and the struggles of the first 2 weeks. Weed is really hard to quit. But it is possible.

What an awesome day. Earned my 30 day milestone tobacco free just now!

I swear the gifts of living clean and sober never stop amazing me.

I got approved for a loan to pay off my credit card debt tonight. This on my measly income of social security and my VA pension. My payment is basically cut in more than half. So between that and my savings from not buying cigs I will have extra money each month now.

Only a couple of months now until I get to meet my half brother and his wife. I’m actively building a better relationship with my sister and finally got her introduced to our brother.

Have to cut back on caffeine and sugar next. Sigh. Why does everything have to be bad for you? :joy:

Hope you all are having a blessed day! :heart:

Thats bullshit. Sorry brother. Can you ask for shared custody? Supervised visits in the meantime?

How’s the search for a program of sobriety going? You seemed interested a few days ago.

Former family court attorney here. Generally speaking the court is going to want to see a minimum of 6 months, usually a year, of consistent progress in order to grant custody, etc. so continue in all those things and demonstrate progress then try again.
