Checking in day 166! Took off today except for one meeting to settle in to my new place, get some odds and ends done, and relax. I moved very close to my old place, but underestimated the traffic noise on this block (I live in a city). I love the place though so gonna use my white noise machine and see what else helps- itās not terrible but an adjustment.
With that said, didnāt sleep great for the second night in a row. Hoping to nap today and get back into my sleep routine tonight. Hope you all have a fantastic sober Friday!

Day 139
I think the worst part of my cold is over. I was able to do some cleaning and finally (after one week) put the laundry inside 
Tomorrow I have to go to the pharmacy to refill my meds, I used a lot in the last days. And I need groceries too. For 3 days all I ate was toast with cheese. Iāll get some chicken for another pot of chicken soup. And I crave greens! Iām not hungry but I know I need veggies.
Thatās all for now 
Happy to be back, happy to be sober!
I hope youāre having a beautiful sober day friends and stay strong 
Edit:
I found some frozen chicken legs in the back of my freezer. Itās late but I start making soup now

@CleanJean congrats on 90 days and your new PB
921 days no alcohol.
386 days no cocaine.
9 days no crisps.
8 days no vape.
5 days no binge-eating.
I did manage to shower last night. 
Did my morning walk, bought lunch from the shop and ate it on a bench on my way back.
Did some meditations, chilled with my cats.
Sorted out 15 empty boxes that were clogging up space, played Tetris with them and took them all to the garage to store. Now the hallway is clear and thereās more space in the spare room.
Did my afternoon lake walk, it wasnāt too hard to find the motivation today, itās so much easier when the sun is shining. 
Now here, in candlelight as the sun is going down for the day.
Next, another meditation and TV time.
Wishing you all wonderful sober weekends.

Day 41. Sleep was horrible last night. IOP was helpful. Now Iām trying to get through 4 hours of work. Itās a major struggle. Iām glad itās Friday. Just in survival mode. The depression is weighing on me. Iām exhausted.

@Will3 congrats on a huge achievement 
@K_smile well done on 10 days, I hope this amazing feeling inspires you to keep pushing through, sobriety gives us so much more than addiction!
@Butterflymoonwoman get well soon! Thereās a stomach virus going around at my work at the moment which I really hope I donāt catch, itās no fun being sick. Take care
@Adasher eeeep good luck on your caffeine free journey. Have you tried a soda stream? I love mine, and I feel like it really helps me curve reaching for so many sugar free caffeinated drinks. Remember to take care of yourself, early days of sobriety also feeling double crap withdrawing from caffeine, lots of self care, your triggers might sneak up on you a bit quicker so be kind to your self!

Well done on 11 days, these early days are rough, but here you are doing an amazing job.
I was just talking about the soda stream in my post above. Have you got one?
I find it really helps filling some of the gaps I used to have making myself a nice drink, in a nice glass, especially while cooking on weekends. I make myself a little soda water, splash of a nice fruit syrup or bitters, over some ice or a few bits of fresh or frozen fruit. I can still enjoy some bubbles, still sip over something in the evening or while Iām cooking without it making me feel like crap the next day!
I hope the journaling helps you clear your mind. Keep checking in

Checking in with 325 days 
I accepted an invite to mingle after work on a Friday arvo in the city for drinks yesterday. Only non drinker in a group of about a dozen of us 
It was nice to socialise, I find I so rarely do any group socialising nowadays being so busy. I met some new work colleagues, I laughed so hard I almost cried a few times.
It felt really good. And I really didnāt need to drink. I didnāt miss it, I just experienced the moment, and that was enough.
Kicked a few small goals for myself this week, and Iām really chuffed with that.
Lots of love to you all this weekend
