I’m glad you were just sleeping in ![]()
I love my cats so much, one of them, Basil, he wakes me up every morning if I’m not already up by 5am.
It used to be a little annoying I must say especially when I was really low and depressed and all I wanted to do was sleep all day and all night. He actually saved me by waking me stopping me from rotting away in bed
and they kept me strong as they can’t feed and brush themselves and they needed me. They definitely saved me lol nowadays I wake at 4am waiting for them to wake up
so I don’t disturb them on the bed.
It’s okay to be kind to yourself, take the rest you need, do nothing if that is what you need.
It’s okay to take a break to get re energised get re balanced.
Self care ![]()
It’s okay to have these days, just remember the feelings are temporary and this time will pass. I wish the day is kind to you ![]()
You will get through ![]()
Just want to show you some support when you are feeling like this. You always support others.
Maybe a cooking day with Ms. Monkey will help.
You know we are here for you if you need us ![]()
Hey all, checking in on day 1,011. I hope everybody has a good one!
Day 1,013 clean and sober. Today’s my Friday and I’m ready lol. Work has been exhausting and a little overwhelming but I’m grateful for a job. Still raining here in San Diego but it’s a good thing. Have a great day, love you guys ![]()

Day 5! I’m feeling better but that could be due to drinking a gallon of water a day. Raining and lightning here in Missouri. My favorite kind of weather.

this gave me a good laugh!
Day 296. Messaged some of the ppl who have messaged me for tattoos, and have several who want something done this weekend when I go home. Then Monday I have two tattoos. I’m excited and it feels good to be back doing what I love and still achieving my other goals. Been hitting the gym just like I said but it has been rough lol. Have a clean sterile place to tattoo here in Plattsburgh, got all my sterile equipment. I’m ready to rock, and thing with me and the girl I’ve been seeing are going well. Taking it a day at a time and pushing through. Much love, this is kind of a silly question but I can’t post on the art page bc I was the last three replies, If someone could go reply to me or share some of your art work so I can continue sharing my tattoos I’d really appreciate it.
Checking in on day 326.
I just checked my messenger spam folder and there is a message there from an old boyfriend from 33 years ago. He got in touch to apologise for being a dick to me way back then. My mind is actually blown right now! It was so long ago that I didn’t even remember his name.
Other than that all is well here. It’s very windy and a bit chilly so I’m staying indoors much of the day. My living room is south facing so I get plenty of bright sunlight on a day like today. Just having an extra cup of coffee for now.
Thanks @LeeHawk ! Woke up this morning to 43 days sober! ![]()

but not red with very short legs like Wickie ![]()
My daughter was convinced the cat was pregnant and she dreamed about little red kitties. But that seems impossible because Wickie never went outside from her formal house.
Amazing work!!! ![]()
Morning checking for 43 days AF.
I had a steak last night at dinner and I think I have a steak hangover this morning. I have been careful to eat well over the past 43 days and am intentional about portion sizes, hours to eat, and avoiding gluten.
I love meat but rarely eat steak and last night I did and I was determined to finish it. ![]()
I sweat during the night like crazy and feel slightly hungover this morning. Why is that?
Anyway, I am sober and last night was the big test and I made it back to the hotel sober and happy.
Checking in at Day 402
Have a great day everyone! ![]()
Day 953
Look what popped up in the book I’m reading
. In the story it is a very one-dimensional alcoholic character though. Had a bit of a mental wobble the last couple of days. But still the thought of drinking never crossed my mind. Feeling much better, not sure if it because I had a meeting at work, it was interesting and I learned lots of new stuff or maybe it is due to moving into a less sucky stage of my cycle.

Did both walks and all my usual meditations, plus a few extra.
Went to my hometown to collect meds, got a hair cut while I was there, which I like.
Will check-in later on for today.

Congrats on 326 days of freedom!
Ow I will convince my cats to accept a little redhead ![]()
You reminded me of a similar phone call I got (pre-cell/internet days haha) from an old boyfriend. So out of the blue. I figured he was in some “program”. We did get together several years after that for some catch-ups and it was fun! The universe can be puzzling ![]()
