Well done for the 7 days @SelfLove_42 and @Liz22
And 3 whole weeks for @CueBall8n9 On your way to your first whole month!!
Is it a medal from “The Conqueror” @Butterflymoonwoman ?? I have a few medals from the virtual walk I do with it. Currently walking the “North coast 500”.
Thank you @CATMANCAM fingers crossed that tonight I’m a catlady again
#Day 1625
Yesterday I was off from work still and I filled that day with cleaning all the cat stuff I kept in the barn. Moved it back in our home so it’s ready for our new roommate if she likes us.
Also bought a new (bigger) carrier. If she is a match she has to travel a long way by car.
Today? Work. And I’m very glad with that so I can distract myself. The only thing my mind can think of right now is: cat, cat, cat, cat…
I have strange brains in that way
Day 3 sober.
Last year I managed to not drink between January and around August. I resumed ‘casual’ drinking on weekends for some time but again began drinking daily around December. If I’m drinking 6 beers everyday it begins to become a pretty crappy habit quite quickly again and not a lifestyle that I want to have control over me.
Hope everyone is doing ok.
Hey friend, it’s good to see you back. I did basically the exact same think in 2021, sober for like 8 months then slipped back into casual drinking which snowballed pretty quickly into heavy drinking over Christmas and feeling fucking terrible. I feel ya. Took me a few slips but after that last stint I’ve nearly managed a year again. I wish you all the best dusting yourself off and staying sober again
It absolutely is from the Conqueror Challenges! Thats sooo cool that ur doing one too! It was my first challenge. My next one is St Francis Way. Hubby is going to get me it for Mothers Day! How far along are you in your Challenge? Are you liking the Pegman views?
Day 12! Each day is an accomplishment! I Indy made it to 40 before relapsing 12 days ago- but even though I had to start over I can feel each “slip-up’s mistakes” cheering me on - and reminding me of how I mentally turned all the help off last time instead of staying plugged into the work at hand - each day - especially the days I felt fine.
22 days today Sober. I have read six chapters in the big book in two days. Trying to visit this community several times a day to stay connected. I have made contact with several guys who are in recovery for fellowship and accountability.
Still here, still sober. Still a miserable old git….but that’s never gonna change!
Thanks to everyone who responded to my post yesterday. I just want to clarify what I was meaning because it seems as though it was misinterpreted.
When I said the below
I was referring to not having anything in particular to say or anything that I could particularly contribute with, it was a poor choice of words on my part. Everyone here matters, I was meaning I felt like I should have had more to say as I hadn’t checked in for nearly 100 days but I had nothing worthwhile to share.
Positive quote for today -
Whatever you do always give 100% - Unless your donating blood!
Sorry to read such terrible news. I have lost family to it in the past year and have my mum fighting it for the 4th time in her life (breast cancer twice, cervical cancer now bowel cancer).
On your way to your first whole month!!
