Stay connected brother! You have been an encouragement to me this past month. Reach out of you want to chat. You can do this ! Rest is good. Drinking coffee and watching it snow is good. One day at a time!

Just in case anyoneā€™s interested, I survived the dentist! It hurt. A lot. I may have yelped in pain a few times. And I canā€™t feel half my face from the anaesthetic. And I need to go back in a month to finish the root canal. Butā€¦ I survived the dentist! :joy_cat:

Day 315.
Iā€™ve been out and about today. It was cold but lovely and sunny and very springlike. I went to an exhibition with a friend and we went for coffee after. Iā€™m really very tired now so Iā€™ll be early to bed I think.
I really enjoyed the art exhibit and particularly liked this sculpture by Linda Aloysius.

@Amy30 So glad you went in to dentist to get some relief. Mouth pain is no joke.

@Hoss Glad Tempest is going well for you. I picked The Luckiest Club, but I know the supports are similar. The more I shared, the stronger I got in sobriety!

Ending day 23. Itā€™s a long time since reaching these numbers. Although I feel an inner pressure inviting me to fall I am amazingly standing up

Day 21 no weed
day 127 no alcohol

I posted earlier but that was more out of frustration and anger so I deleted it

Today was really bad. I couldnā€™t do my work right. I canā€™t seem to get it at the moment but I think another thing clicked

Do the first department I get told to do, ask and move on to the next

I was told if I donā€™t get it I could loose my job and I really like it and that is frustrating to me. On top of that Iā€™m still not feeling 100% and still under the weather.

Iā€™ll keep trying to get my work done
My next day is Wednesday

@Nordique 1000 is incredible, congratulations!
@Butterflymoonwoman I have drinking dreams sometimes. Weird part is, alcohol is there, but something stops me from drinking. Like, the glass or bottle will just vanish! :astonished:
@Juli1 Iā€™m so glad youā€™re back! I was worried because you havenā€™t posted lately. Iā€™m on day 4 myself.
@Minatasha Iā€™m sorry things are so hard right now, donā€™t give up! :people_hugging:
@Amy30 Congrats on getting out alive. I got 2 teeth that need to come out and Iā€™m not looking forward to it.

Day 4
Got a good nightā€™s sleep for the first time in a long time. It was a cold, drizzly day so I just did a thorough cleaning until Brian showed up at 3:30. Heā€™s a great guy but not much for deep conversation. I feel a big shift in my life because I finally have financial security, but because of physical health I canā€™t do much of what I wanted to do only a few months ago. I couldnā€™t get him to discuss this with me.
Still, a good night. Listening to jazz; gonna read one of those library books I havenā€™t even started yet (I tend to check out 4 or 5 at a time). Trying to avoid internet (except for here of course). Have a great sober evening/morning! :v:
P.S. Donā€™t forget to set your clocks ahead.

Today was a great day. Started out with my 1st in person meeting for CODA. It was a small meeting but it was good. I even shared. After that i worked for a few hours, got a healthy dinner, went for a walk, and i just finished an SLAA meeting online. Iā€™m almost through my 6th day of no weed too! I had so many strangers say hi to me today and some wanted talkā€¦ itā€™s crazy making the charges i have been seems to attract people. I love that the people are from all walks of life. Idk if they can feel an energy from me, but itā€™s been interesting. Now to watch some Spongebob and relax until i fall asleep.
Heā€™s a smart sponge!
