Checking in daily to maintain focus #54

Thank you! I love the onion reference! I am getting some quiet time tonight. I set a timer for cleaning and whatever i didnt get done will be there tomorrow to finish. I didnt cram everything in tonight. I’ll have time tomorrow for other things. I really felt that i needed to go to a gym and found out today that i get a free gym membership through my insurance! I did that this evening. I wasn’t self conscious like i used to be. I said f*ck it, who cares what others think! That’s big for me. So the layers are starting to unpeel. My SLAA meetings are all online. That is my main focus now and the one im working the steps on. I’ve become addicted to meetings lol. I also listen to CODA, SAA and found an OA one for now. Hope you have a great, sober night!

Checking in with a lot less than five years like @Wunderbar! But I am starting somewhere :wink:


Decent day today - hadn’t in awhile but went on a run and did better than I should have. I was supposed to be out of town this weekend with my hiking ladies group, in Idyllwild, which is so lovely, but I cancelled a few weeks ago knowing I would want to be home for a “milestone”. I made the right choice.
Take care all!

Sixty days is a huge milestone. My 60 was a way bigger deal than my 5 year. At sixty days i was still trying to figure out how i was going to survive without pain pills. I have three words of advise for you, NEVER CRAVE ALONE if you want to use/drink talk to someone. Post here, talk to someone first. As long as we wake up tomorrow clean/sober we have won. Another Day Won is Better Than Another Day One

Day 687. Checking in. Monster headache maybe from running 3 miles on the treadmill today. Glad to be sober tonight.

Congratulations @Wunderbar on 5 years and @FeelingBetter on 60 days. One day at a time for all of us. :blue_heart:

That is a good solid block of time :purple_heart:. I know I felt like I was really working sobriety when I could count in MONTHS (not days or weeks)!

#Day 1684 :walking_woman:
It’s funny, in the beginning of my sobriaty I was focussed on the amount of my sober days.
I could easily tell you how many days I had. These days I have to check it on the TS app. The only thing I know I have 16 something :hugs: I think it is a good sign.
Today? Have to go the city centre. Bought a jacket online and it arrived yesterday with an alarmtag still on it :confounded:
Going to pack my stuff for the holiday.
One night of sleep before leaving…
