Day 856

Feeling a little more motivated and positive. But chilly, and Japanese houses don’t have central heating, so easy to just stay in bed/in blankets on the sofa. It’s my birthday next week, the THIRD sober one.

Sometimes it gets worse before it gets better. Nothing good comes easy unfortunately. You got this sis stay strong. The beginning is always the hardest. It will be worth the wait :muscle::pray:

For me if i have a good sleep i can feel a lot more positive, went to a christmas market yesterday and had a hot choc instead of 4 litres of wine and it was a lot more enjoyable

Day 198. Keep falling behind on the threads, I feel super content with myself and just kind of lose track of checking in. I have my days of course but really feeling on track, of course I have to stay vigilant. Much love

Day 305
Morning! Hope everyone is doing well. Just finished a leg workout and doing some light cardio now. Feeling pretty good today but am determined to be more recovery focused today. Going to do my morning recovery routine before i start my day. Ive been distancing myself from that for awhile now. I know that I literally have a daily reprieve from my addiction which requires work every single day, so this is important.
Today is -8°C so going take advantage of this nicer weather and run errands. Next week its supposed to go down to -40°C so that too cold for me to do anything. Love how our weather changes so drastically. Unfortunately that cold of weather means less work for my hubby. But id rather him be warm than make money in that cold :cold_face:
Today i will also finish off my fondant snowflakes for those cupcakes. Work on my embroidery piece. Go grocery shopping AND do a meditation to calm my mind bcuz apparently i cant sit still lately. So gotta make that a daily practice. Nothing much else.
Hope everyone has an addiction free day!

@waywardwanderer congrats on your week :tada:
@Juli1 I’m pleased you made it to your destination safely in the end, but it’s no wonder you were exhausted, I hope you’re well rested now :blush:
@residentevil sorry for your loss :mending_heart:
@Minatasha :people_hugging: :blue_heart:
@Cp25 congrats on 80 days :tada:
@EFountains congrats on triple digits :100::tada:
@Hollieberry congrats on 90+ days :tada:

857 days no alcohol.
322 days no cocaine.
90 days no takeaways.

The fatigue is yet to lift, yet I’m not getting much sleep. I’ve needed naps every day this week. It is unusually cold here in the UK so it’s probably a combo of that and the Fibro. I’m okay though, I’ll walk and swim again when I do have the energy.

I really need to hoover and wrap everyone’s Xmas gifts, so I’m hoping I atleast have the energy to do those 2 things tomorrow :pray:t2::crossed_fingers:t2:

Did a lot of meditations today so I’m up to date with the ones I follow now, and they have saved me from some dark thoughts I was having. I also cooked a pizza from the shop at lunchtime, which was a much needed treat meal.

Checking in day 102! What’s this? My mood and energy are sustaining and each day isn’t feeling like a struggle? Who would have thought! I know energy and mood ebb and flow, but they’ve been feeling great lately. Had therapy, a meeting for my part time job, got to the gym, and now at work. Just focusing on continuing to build the life I want- a slow process, but glad it’s going in the right direction. Have a great Sober Thursday y’all
