Welcome 
. I remember those times. Just accepting I have a problem and then doing something about it was much easier than wrestling with if I have a problem or not.
@KarenKW Congratulations!

Day 5 well I did way better than I thought. It’s Friday had to go be around family and I did not drink. Was offered even though I said I wasn’t drinking. Just left and now I’m going to head to bed (I know it’s early) I know I feel great in the morning!

Checking in with 38 days AF. Our day started with a call from my husband’s aunt to let him know his uncle passed away. He was 84, and had throat cancer, so not shocking. What was a bit odd was Aunty asked my husband to write the obit. She has 2 grown capable children. My husband has only met his uncle maybe 6-8 times in his life. Of course he did it, he is wonderful with that stuff. But just kinda set our day a bit crooked. Got our last (shortened) ski day in, and we leave my happy place tomorrow. Always easy to stay AF (for me) on the road. Just hoping my mind can turn off a bit for a decent night sleep.
OK, take care all!

Have as good a day as you all can friends. Sober and clean. Love.
Out of bed early on the first day of my holidays proper. I kept waking up and every time after I fell asleep again my dreams got worse. So here I am. Awake and sober. And tired. I’ll be OK.
I had some intense experiences in therapy yesterday. I feel I really made some progress there. Might have opened me up a bit, I may be a bit more receptive to stuff. Both good and bad. And not hiding myself in booze and drugs. Never again. I’m alive and I’m awake. Not going back to sleep. X
@KarenKW Huge congrats Karen! Enjoy the pedi, you deserve it! So glad you’re here with all of us. We’re in this together. Hugs.

Badass thank you for sending me that. I should be good in a couple months, never lifted too heavy so it’s not that bad. It’s just a lot of stretching and exercising hoping the disc gets reabsorbed and repairing the piriformis so I’m not putting too much pressure on it by standing up.

Day 38,
Slept in today till like 1 in the afternoon. I feel myself falling into a depression so I’m hauling my ass to the gym for some confidence building weighlifting and feel good cardio. Then I’m journaling my heart out. Half of the battle is catching myself and saying “we are not doing this.”
Afterwards I’m going to continue reading Pleasure Activism
My friend is coming over for dinner later. Making a salmon and hake roast with fondant potatoes. Delicious

Day #60 !!!
It’s Saturday and hopefully the weather is going to be halfway decent today. Planning on spending the day outside getting some cleanup done from the recent wind and storms.
Thank you all for helping me get to two months!!!

Good morning! 9 days sober. I still cant believe the amount of energy and happiness that I have. The eye Dr that I work for(when I told him about my sobreity and newly found energy)said, "Wait! What? You stopped taking a depressant and now you have energy? " his new name is Dr. Smartass. On a side note, after all these years of not being able to go down to the basement(fall risk)and play pool with my guys, found out that I’m still a damn good shot in pool!

Yes I agree. I’m kind of shocked at myself to be honest. I just thought like no. That won’t be one drink for me so I’ll pass.
