Checking in as Day 9 AF comes to an end. Finding I talk out loud to myself a lot lately. My dog passed about 2 months ago so canāt use her as my sounding board any longer. So far I guess Iāve given myself decent advice

@dls @AyBee @C_8 Awesome numbers! Congratulations!
@Nowenbrace Iām glad everything is okay!
Donāt normally check in this time of night just felt like talking. I have a feeling Iām going to be awake all night, Insight Timer may not help. Made the mistake of having some coffee. Itās not just the caffeine but itās adding to my irritability (I posed a question on Stack Overflow and a few idiots actually downvoted my question and nobody has answered yet). Hate it when dumb shit gets on my nerves.
Itās been a pretty good day though so Iām gonna place some jazz and read a book and stay away from the computer (except for you guys!)
Gānite, fam!

Youāre right; I should have said Good night and/or good morning.
Enjoy your day!
Edit: just saw the kitty picture, absolutely adorable. Everybody tells me I should get a catā¦
#Day 1634 
Bad wet weather overhere. But I cannot change it 
Not much to say beside: Iām good.
Enjoying my time off from work. The new old cat is blending in easy. She lived 3 days hiding behind the couch and now her domain is on the couch.
Cats are in my life for many years. My previous cat gave me the last push to stop drinking (read the story about it in my profile). Sober since.
Taking care of an animal makes me happy.
Yesterday she sat almost on my lapā¦almost!
Babysteps, but still forward!
Just like our recovery!!

Day 314
Iām really struggling with feelings of regret for the past at the moment. It has been triggered by the death of a friend, which highlighted that Iāve been unfriended on FB by someone I thought of as a family friend. I contacted her about the death and there has been no reply. Iāve found myself looking through old messages to see if I can find an explanation but that has just brought up multiple unrelated memories that Iām finding extremely uncomfortable. I decided to clear out my old messages, right back 15 years or so.
My appetite is always the first thing to be affected when Iām upset but Iām glad to say that I still made a lovely meal for my daughter and me last night and still managed to eat it. It took a bit of effort to start cooking but I got there in the end.
Iām also able to see that where in the past I would have been utterly floored by this type of thing, I am actually managing a lot better. Yes, Iām still upset but Iām not crippled by it and it hasnāt made me lose any sleep. Just before I fell asleep last night I made a meditation where I had a shallow wicker bowl that was full of pebbles and rocks and I emptied them out and then selected several items and carefully arranged them back into the bowl. It was like a mini zen garden. I found that very soothing.
Iām thinking about looking into getting some type of therapy again. I have quite a clear idea of what I want to work on and I think Iām ready to do a bit of emotional digging. Iām going to start putting feelers out for that.
My daughter is going on an adventure weekend today so I need to go and pack her bag now. And then itās just me and my teen son for a couple of nights.
Have a good day everyone

Day 9
Good morning sober community. How are you all doing? Iām doing good but dealing with unhelpful customer service will drain the joy of out of you. While dealing with this, it dawned on me that I would HATE to be on the receiving end of my anger. Now Iām realizing why people donāt really mess with me because I operate from a very simple maxim: be nice and Iāll be nice, cross me and Iāll take you for a ride. Anyways gonna go for a run to let off some steam.
