Checking in on day 40 
Have had many offers and urges to smoke the past few days but Iāve overcome them and stuck with my sober plan.
One day at a time!

Someone out there will see that amount of sober time and quickly scroll past thinking āHeās done it he aināt got nothing to worry aboutā
Wrong, Iām still doing it Iām still putting the work in and going out of my way to do things I donāt want to do to keep me sober bc the biggest fear I have is that one day Iāll forget what I am and pick one up again. If I pick up again I will never stop.
Are you prepared to gamble with your life?

I said this about my DoC about a year before I did in fact pick it up again. And it did almost kill me. It took a lot to finally get clean. And I donāt ever want to do it again. Iāll keep going one day at a time. And i hope i never forget why I am doing this. I hope to never forget the despair and hopelessness that i lived with for years.
I am so proud of you for all your time sober! And also for not getting complacent. For always putting in the effort to stay sober!

Evening Check In
Day 330 Substance free
Day 8 Binge free
Im feeling pretty relaxed tonight. I think the little check ins/breaks ive taken today has really helped manage my stress. Ive done well keeping track of everything im working on. That in itself makes me happy! Hubby bought our tank 3 new fish today which i just love!!! 2 diff angel fish and another shark. We all spent like 20 min just watching them. It was nice! Just hoping to get some decent sleep tonight and then do it all again tmrw.
Hugs TS fam

Sage advice; Iām going to start doing that.
@Sabrina80 Congratulations for your 100 days!
Day 15
Woke up in a lot of pain. I used to take a 50mg Seroquel to get to sleep. I donāt need it so much anymore, so I use a pill splitter when I take it. Worthless things, pill splitters. One third breaks off as a solid piece, the rest crumbles into dust. So last night I took the dust portion, and didnāt move at all in my sleep. I was so stiff it hurt to get up. Still went through morning ritual.
My case mgr came back from medical leave today but our meeting didnāt not go well. My housing grant is running out early - in March. Donāt know if itās the first day of the month, or the last. Iāll get a letter explaining. She also mentioned that my case management will end soon. She said that since she works homeless outreach, we shouldāve stopped working together more than a year ago. She sticks around because I need the support ābut it doesnāt seem to be workingā.
So I got to get employed as soon as possible. Iām not awful worried. Part of my plan to re-invent myself is to stop being afraid of little things that donāt scare normal grown ups. Like looking for a job. Or budgeting money wisely.
Anyway, watching some movies lately. Iāll write some reviews. Have a great night, sober peeps!

As i lay down and reflectā¦ I didnāt believe Iād be able to break free from using when I started this. I didnāt believe I was worth it. I didnāt have hope or goals even. I isolated, and pushed everyone away.
I do still, and probably always will struggle with my mental health, some i was born with, some caused by life experiencesā¦ But I finally am hearing a small voice from within saying You can do this! You are worth it! And i am here feeling so grateful.
I have my sobriety. I have opened up and called myself out on my poor choices. I have listened to some great advice, and tried to share some here and there. And most importantly, I have been accepted and cared for by so many here in this app/site and made friends. I am so lucky.
My day started out too early 
I really didnāt want to get out of bed. But i got up, got my kids to school, went to work, met the new interim store manager, took my kids and my friend grocery shopping, picked up dinner, made it with my partner, actually ate a full meal, sitting down at the table with my kids, and cleaned up the dishes before getting the kids off to bed. Now i am relaxing, and will be going to sleep soon.
I love yāall and hope that youāre all having a beautiful day/evening

Day 450 AF
Staying busy with work and the kiddos.
Still without soda or chips in 2023. I had my first cup of coffee yesterday. Iām trying to cut back on caffeine. Took a rest day from walking today, Ima jump back on it tomorrow morning.
Working on my recovery. Trying not to worry about the small things, or keep thinking about the past. Itās time to move on. Been feeling pretty good.
Thoughts are just thoughts. Dreams are just dreams. Iām still sober and thatās what matters.
Oh yeah, Iāll be 34 years old this Friday the 13th 
. The 30s aināt so bad yet.
Hope all is well with everyone. Goodnight, gang.
