For me was/is a daily meeting something that grounds me and the more I take part the better I get to know all regular participants. This is nice, because of this it’s feeling like coming home.
Yes, to see the group of people as a higher power is a perfect way to enable atheists and so on to take part easier. For myself it didn’t fit, but I found my own way in reading lots of grapevine literature.
Alma, the dog, is a little suicidal and tried to kill herself with mushrooms and after that with the filling of her Teddy bear at the age of 11 weeks. Luckily, we had to drive to the ER just once at midnight.
I am also on day 84. And I completely understand what you’re feeling…I had the same situation a couple of weeks ago. You DO know that it will pass. And it WILL. Hang in there, you’ve got this today!
That’s probably a fair assessment. I don’t know that I’ve totally given up on alcohol in my mind. I’m having a hard time finding my “why.” I’m still sober today. I will stay sober today. Just not really motivated because my entire life is in pieces.
Had a productive day at work and am in a very positive mood. Joynd positive contacts.
Despite of grocery shopping afterwork…
Grumpy people… Sometimes it seems as my smiling seems spookey to these people in the grumpy mood …
Bought just a few additional foods for the weekend. At the checkout there was an older man behind me… He had a package (6 bottles) of wine…
My regular ration for the weekend at least before sobriety! The man didn’t wear a mask… And he was looking sooooo fucking sad and empty! Reminded me so hardly on the inner world of my past self.
Glad to leave the shop with my tomatoes, avocado, chicken and Haloumi stuff
Very happy that it’s weekend, having time to relax, for myself, sports and healing…
I really love being around just with myself more and more… Becoming a good and reliable friend to myself! I am wearing a calm smile most time of the day
Sending LOVE!
Take care, choose the cool way
and stay sober!
Day 606. My workweek starts today. Not really ready for it, but luckily I enjoy my job. I’m grateful to have left my last job of 10 years, that was my primary reason for drinking.
Day 22
So much anxiety this morning! Doing my best to get through it wish I could go for a walk or a run but my hip is too bad I’m trying to keep busy and focused on other things…
This sounds lovely, im hoping to build something like this for myself or to join something and be apart of this, and this feeling sounds like just what i need.
Im so glad Alma is okay, oh dear i cant imagine her after eating a mushroom that must have been so scary for you
Ive worked in retail and food service most of my life and I’d always look at people like they were nuts when they were like “yay! Finally Friday! Am I right?” And I go this is my Tuesday bro. My Friday is Monday but I’m happy for you.
Thats amazing to see the booth, im so happy to see it exists.
I have heard if you go out, the tables with yellow balloons are for non drinkers but dont take my word for it.
Had to go to the VA for lab work this morning. Took daughter out to breakfast afterwards.
We went to Sam’s Club after for hurricane prep. Got cases of water and boxes of snacks. Large packs of tp and several cases of soda. I also got two weeks supply of pixie sticks for just in case lol. A week of pixie sticks costs less than one day of cigs so it’s a win/win. Got batteries. Only thing left is candles.
Son in law is new to Florida from California. He knows earthquakes, not hurricanes and how fickle they can be. He told us not to over do it on prep. Sorry but I live by the better prepared than sorry motto especially with this many kids in the house.
Having a much better day today. Tonight is enchiladas for dinner. Tomorrow is hamburgers, potato salad, corn on the cob and baked beans. My week of kitchen duty will be officially over. Yay!
Off to watch tv awhile. Perks of retirement. I do want I want when I want lol
Twe dont deal wirh hurricanes ever whete i live. The odd tornado but I personally have nevwr been clase one. I really hope u all stay safe I cant imagine how scary that must be
Luckily, we had to drive to the ER just once at midnight.
