Day 15 AF, doing pretty well…
Off to see Rod Stewart in concert tonight which should be great. I love pretty much all types of music. From Metal to 80s Rap and everything in between. Peace and strength to you all.

#Day 1637 
I had an angel at my shoulder yesterday. I almost had a little tree on my head! 
I was walking in a storm and was near home when I entered a lane with old trees. I remember I was doubting…is this safe? I heared the trees creak all around me and saw little branches fall.
Suddenly a hard noise and a tree smashes right behind me! I screamed loud! It nearly hit me!
It was such a close call!
I made a quick picture and then started to run back where I came from! Walked high from endorfines back home with a D tour counting my blessings. Phoned home to tell my husband what I’ve been trough.
My formal father in law from an ex boyfriend died because of a falling tree. He was only 52 years old. It was traumatic for me. And also our relationship of 10 years couldn’t handle this lost so we split up.
This tree could not kill me I guess, but so happy it didn’t hit me! But another person in Amsterdam wasn’t that lucky. He was hit by a fallen branch yesterday and died because of it. So sad.
I hope that angel still sits on my shoulder and has not fly away 
Today? Work and tonight going to the cinema.
And enjoying being safe and sound 
I am a lucky girl!

First daily check in, day 2
It’s my day 2 of going off marihuana. Took me a lot of day one’s to get here.
Been sober from alcohol since July. That was also hard, but easier since I hadn’t been daily drinking for that long. And alcohol was never my go to before.
Marihuana has been my ‘friend’ since I was like 15, and a daily habit since 18/19, I think. So for over 20 years.
I am fairly functional, and secretive about it. But I know how it has held me back in all kinds of ways. Noticing all the effects not drinking had on me, I am really inspired to live a sober life. I have had a sober period of like three months about ten years ago and I remember everything being better, everything.
I am happy I took the leap now, and am a bit sad I can’t share this, for me, big thing with everyone around me. So I am glad to be here with you all.

I Couldn’t Be Ar$ed So, I made myself Be Ar$ed. Hit the gym, 2 hours later I feel great.
Moral of the story - Don’t wait for when you feel better to do something, just do it and you’ll start to feel better!
Nobody changes by staying in their comfort zone, push beyond where you are and you will grow.
You never move forward if you stay still!
Push yourself through the bad days and the good days will come, believe in yourself, you have all the tools you need to be happy, look deep inside yourself and find your key to unlock them.

Day 13
Good afternoon, I’m feeling good today. Had a wonderful dinner yesterday with a work colleague and then we decided to play We’re Not Really Strangers. I think the idea is that people play it inebriated but we played it sober and it was an intense 3 hours. Did a lot of journaling about it this morning to process because I heard some things I did not want to hear but all of them are actually the things that make me strong.
Now off to gym, then lunch with a friend, and my best friend will reshow his most famous performance later this evening. I’ve been waiting to see it for years!
Have a good one!

Day 1005 clean and sober today. Some crazy mistakes have been happening at work lately and the program manager is going to have me start training with the Intake Coordinator to start learning that part. I am not sure where it’s leading to but it’s a very very important position as it’s the very first point of contact people make with the program here. I am not sure what to make of it, maybe they’re going to get fired??? Anyway, it’s a huge responsibility but if my boss thinks I am capable then I should trust myself as well. I’ve been hoping for a promotion/raise lately as I could really use the money lol and I get a little bored when I’m not being challenged etc. so I guess I’ll suit up and show up and see what happens right??? Have an amazing day everyone I love you guys very much!

I’m the same way as far as music goes. I’ve seen concerts from Cypress Hill to Avenged Sevenfold and in between. I’d hit up a Rod Stewart show in a minute. Have a great time.

Checking in day 318.
It was such a dismal day yesterday and I felt so tired much of the day. My girl got back from her weekend camp on Sunday night and yesterday after school she was very teary and emotional. She won’t have had any downtime at all over the weekend so it’s hardly surprising. She did have a great time away and she’s been telling me all about it.
Last night I practiced asking questions with the dowsing pendant I bought on Saturday. I found it very interesting and also tiring. Even forming my thoughts into simple yes/no questions is therapeutic but quite laborious.
This morning the weather is much better and I’ve already done half of the household chores that I let myself off with yesterday.
I feel that I should practice yoga today at some point as my back feels a bit stiff but I can feel my belly full from breakfast so it’ll have to wait for now.
Best wishes to everyone!
