Hahaha that made me laugh bcuz i realize how silly that must sound. I havent owned snow pants in decades lol back home in manitoba tho, i used to have to layer my pants bcuz it was soo cold. Thinking back it would have been easier to just buy snow pants.

Hallo Julia,
ich freue mich, dass es Dir weiterhin gut geht.
Ich war vor kurzem auch tanken und war total erstaunt darüber, wie viele Flachmännersorten und Mengen es in der Tankstelle gibt.
Man sollte ja nicht vergessen, dass man alkoholisiert nicht fahren soll, aber wann trinkt man denn ansonsten diese Mini-Variante?
Ich hoffe, dass Deine Woche gut gestartet ist,
Matti
Dang, sorry. This should have been a PM.

Thank you for sharing ur experience 
i have had this sense of fear since about 8 months clean or so bit it has intensified pretty bad over the past week. I love what you say about valuing your existence now, bcuz thats exactly how i feel. Which is really a good thing!
I do have to practice faith over fear for sure. I think I really have to get into that more bcuz that fear is pretty heightened in my life right now. I will be doing that today and see how i feel thank you!

@Butterflymoonwoman That is such a lot of understandable fear to be carrying around. Are there support groups for parents of children with chronic health issues that you could attend?
@KarenKW Congratulations on 30 days! It is something to be proud of.
@Fury Good luck with the new job!

Day 128
The morning started very very cold and with some missing trains 
I was in such a bad mood this morning, not only because of the train situation. To be honest I don’t know why I was so angry. Woke up: angry 
Tried to post something here but realized “Do you really want to spread this bad mood? You don’t even know what’s wrong!” so I deleted what I wrote and thought “First give this day a chance. If you’re still angry later, post about it”.
Now my mood improved a lot 
The day was okay most of the time.
My gums are better but the infection is still there, I can’t chew without pain. So I called my dentist, she’ll take care of it tomorrow. I’ll lose some working hours but it’s my health. I only have this one.
I wouldn’t do this if I’d still drink. I’d manage this on my own somehow and make it worse in the end.
So, I’m proud of myself for managing this day better as I thought I would.
I wish someone who struggles the same experience. In the morning you may think “shitty day ahead” but in the end it becomes a quite good one and maybe you even learned some lessions 
Have a beautiful sober day friends and stay strong

I never understood that. But Gas stations? Ooof

Today is not off to a great start. I’ll elaborate when I get home, but for now I just wanted to talk because it’s shaping up into a drinking day.
