Checking in on day 1228 (new account).

Itā€™s been a while since Iā€™ve shared an update, but Iā€™m proud to say that my sobriety is still going strong. Interesting things have happened in the past 6 months, both good and bad, but Iā€™m currently heading in a good direction. Iā€™m proud to say that Iā€™ve finally found a career by pursing my CDL, and am currently training to become a school bus driver. Iā€™m not accustomed to children or teens in any way, but this is a good start for not only Itā€™s location, but the type of vehicle being driven. After a few seasons I may go into Charter or something similar. Iā€™ve struggled with sugar for months but have finally managed to get it under control, and Iā€™ve been pretty committed to taking at least a 5 mile walk each day. Still a work in progress, but progress none the less.

Itā€™s always nice to be back and I hope all is well with everyone!

I havenā€™t caught up on everyoneā€™s updates yet but I just want to thank everyone so much for supporting me and helping through yesterday. You were a HUGE part of why I didnā€™t relapse. Thank god the insanity has passed and Iā€™m so glad I didnā€™t pick up. I canā€™t tag everyone who reached out but I read every single word. @Binx and @Lisa07 thank you for reminding me I donā€™t have to tackle everything at once.

I will definitely be reaching out here again for help if I feel weak. Game changer.

25 days alcohol free and grateful :muscle:

Day 12. Up at 6 to head out on the bike before the office. Drinks event tonight with work (ugh) and already planning my lime and soda so I donā€™t even consider alcohol. Going to duck out early so itā€™s not too much of a test of willpower.

Day 1708 :walking_woman:
Nothing special lately. Worked yesterday and got to bed early because I was very tired. Today work as well and tonight my grown up kids come home to chill.


The picture is the view from a look out tower we climbed during our walk last sunday.
Have a good day all :raising_hand_woman:
