Morning Check In
Day 364
Well the down n outs ive been experiencing lately has lifted. Sooo beyond grateful for that! Im hoping other areas improve also like my healthy eating and exercise. Just really feeling the need to get back on track with those.
Other than that i am doing well! Just at work for another shift. This week coming will also be good! Im excited to spend Valentines Day with my family. Getting to do some Valentines Day baking is something im also looking forward to. Plus getting to spend extra days with my son (he only has 2 days of school this week). Grateful and blessed for my life 
Hope everyone has an addiction free day!

@Cp25 congrats on the new job 
@Wolf182 congrats on 90 days
@Luna2022 donāt let that voice win.
916 days no alcohol.
376 days no cocaine.
4 days no binge-eating.
3 days no vape.
I managed not to give in to the voice telling me I was allowed to eat crisps with the semi-final, so Iām pleased about that, I never regret not giving in, itās empowering.
Today Iāve been out for 2 walks, showered, changed my bedding, done my meditations, came here, and now itās time to watch some episodes of the shows Iām watching. I feel relaxed, itās nice.
I hope youāve all had wonderful sober weekends

Oh, Im sorry to hear that. I mean its good that you are being honest with us, but its actually more important that you are honest with yourself.
I am just going to put a little story here that recently happened to me to show you the level of honesty I keep within my program. You see for me this isnt about the drugs and the booze, its about the disease of addiction and everything that makes that up. Some of those things are manipulation, dishonesty, and self-centerness.
I am a part of a community program that I pay a monthly due for where I can use the local metal work shop and all this supplies for a drop in rate. They had some chemicals and a machine that I needed to do some work from home so leant it out to me. I decided to buy my own whole system which included a machine like I had been leant but no chemicals. My brain said , "oh just skim some chems they wont know. " so I proceeded to look up the ratio of chemicals I needed for the size bath I had purchased. Suddenly another voice inside me shouted, "THATS STEALING. " I was mortified that I had even thought it, nevermind gotten so far as to start looking up measurments. I immediately called my sponsor and told her the story. I then took the machine and the chemicals back to the workshop with everything there, nothing skimmed, and thanked them for lending them out, telling them I had decided to purchase my own. These chemicals are very difficult to find in Canada and the shipping from the states had been so expensive but I knew that was the right thing to do. When i got home I went to order some and the first site to come up was a canadian company, the chems cost me 12 bucks shipping and I recieved them in three days. That was my gift for doing the right thing.
I am learning may things in recovery but one of the most important things is that we are going to continue suffering until we learn the lesson. Until we start to choose love, and live by spiritual principles we are going to keep falling.
Honesty with self is a massive lesson, it leads to self acceptance, self forgiveness and ultimately self love.

This is such a powerful post. Thank you SO much for sharing It really makes me realize that there is more to addiction than just removing the drugs and alcohol. That its sooo much deeper than that

Have you talked to your sponsor about this? I donāt recall you mentioning your hun is an alcoholic, so probably not the best person to give advice on the subject. You know deep down inside what the right thing to do is. Be honest with yourself.

Hey Owen,
Just got back from a walk.
Thinking about your post. Just isnāt sitting right with me.
What I hear you saying is; you had a couple of glasses of wine with family and your wife said you donāt have to reset.
It is definitely your journey. And you can get where youāre going the way you want to.
Iām wondering if this is message you really want to put out here on this sober forum where there might be people out here struggling to put together 5 or 6 days. Or even worse 187 or 188 days. That itās ok to have 2 glasses of wine with family.
Good share.
Love you man.

Today is 100days no alcohol and about 1.50 days off weed
Itās tough but as Iāve seen people here say, the beginning is tough. Those words runn through my head every urge to pick up. The urges are in the morning but my energy is coming back slowly sence 1 day ago
As for right now Iām taking care of life issues
I had a job interview on Friday and they said itās mine but my id expired so I need to take care of that asap
Watching movies with the hunn and cuddling my kitty
Thatās all for now
