Im doing well thank you 
I seem to be sleeping so much lately. I wonāt complain as I usually have hard time sleeping more often than not.
Iām not sure if itās just where I get cozy and wrapped up warm and just dealing asleep from the cold weather or if my body is exhausted and needing it. But Iāll take it lol.
I hope you have some good weeks ahead of you and Iām so proud of you staying on the path while going through some tough times.

Take a breathe, try not to get overwhelmed your doing amazing 12 days is fantastic.
You have a lot your worrying about and you will only stress yourself and make yourself unwell with worry.
Your main priority is to not pick up and I can assure you all though it doesnāt feel like it yet everything will get better and slowly fall into place, things will work out and things will be okay.
Whatās lost is lost, you have a fresh start and you have your life. Hereās an big hug stick with it and it will be okay.

Evening Check In
Day 304
Extremely tired right now. Have been for most of the day. Maybe i need to sleep in a bit or not pack my day full of activities and errands. Today i woke up at 530am to workout. Then i worked on my fondant cupcake toppers. I did 6 of each plus 24 stars for my wreath cupcakes. Still have snowflakes to do.
Then i vacuumed and did dishes. Cleaned the kitchen after my baking. Tried to relax and do nothingā¦ couldnt so worked on my embroidery piece.
Now im hungry and trying not to eat so that i dont go over my calories (supper will be soon anyway so dont want to snack. Just waiting for hubby to get home). I am feeling irritable and tense. Just really need to learn how to stop and not do anything. It seems hard to do.
Anyway, hope everyone is having a good day/evening.

Hey @Sirluca good luck with the job prospects.
Something stuck out to me about your shareā¦
The glory of recovery is that clearer communication and thoughts come with time. And the best part is you dont have to ābe the man you once wereā but can be a new man, a man recovering and kicking ass
One day at a time friend

Hitting day 11 in a few hours. Just went to a work party/gift exchange. Had no problem letting others drink and I had fun . The secret Santa thing worked out interestingly. I havenāt bothered telling coworkers that I am not drinking so my gift ended up being my favorite bottle of rum Itās now in my liquor cabinet waiting for guests over the holidays. Not feeling tempted which is a good thing.

Itās Day 27 fam. Iām still out of town for work staying in a Air BNB with coworkers who drink & smoke weed. Iām grateful in this moment my desire to be clean is greater than wanting to be loaded. I talk to my sponsor everyday while Iām out here and also keep in contact with other addicts/Alcoholics. I was working today with the thought of how blessed I am to be where Iām at today. Iāve had a couple rough days with mistakes happening with work but my gratitude kept a smile on my face. I canāt wait to get home and take my 30 day chip Saturday. But like my sponsor always tells me, what his sponsor tells him when projecting clean timeā¦āitās not looking good Anthonyā lmao. Everyone stay blessed in recovery. Iām proud of everyone here I love you all no matter what youāre here for Iām rooting for you

Day 75
Itās freezing outside, today we hit -9Ā°C (15,8Ā°F) 
I really need some warm long socks now, or a pantyhose. Itās too cold for just jeans.
On my way to work now, I hope the train arrives in one peaceā¦that thing makes some spooky noises yāall 
Iām planning this to be an awesome day. If I can wake up hating the day I also can wake up loving the day, right?
Okay, thatās all for now 
I hope youāre having a beautiful sober day, stay strong

Have as good a day as you all can friends. Love from my little square.
I was so tired yesterday night I mistakenly thought I had a doctor and a dentist appointment coming up this morning. Actually thatās tomorrow. So got free time on my hand now as itās my weekend. Yay! Iāll do something nice. No addict stuff. Something healthy and fun. Yes those two go together.

Day 9ā¦
My emotions are just all over the place. Feeling particularly bitter about the fact that I canāt smoke weed without it fucking up my brain chemistry. Iām in PAIN and itās feeling like a cruel joke that this is happening around the same time I decide to go sober.
But I did decide, and it is happening. Still successfully staying away, even if it is putting me in a bad mood.
