Day 6
Woke up sober, but hard hangover feeling.
Nearly one week, I know it is fragile but hey…
FUCK alcohol 
What am I doing different?
Much love 
Day 10! I cannot remember the last time I got to double figures !
Working 7-5 today (not as catchy as dollys song)
But all good
Day 85 checking in sober
Checking in on day 269. I tended our little terrace garden this morning. We have a few potted plants. Love watching them grow and enjoying their beautifull colors.
I thought I’d share a picture I took just now of our roses. I’m so proud of them. And of me for taking care of them. Tending them gives me peace and energy. Life can be so beautifull when you’re not wasting it on drinking…
Have a great day everyone!
Congrats a lot.

Hello all,
Checking in on Day 1,802 Sober. My mother passed away overnight. I will await the arrangements for services and attend as required. Not a whole lot else to say about it really as I was not that close to her for many years.
Thanks
Im so sorry for your loss @SoberGuyUSA even if you werent close to her a death can bring up alot of emotions. Be kind to yourself
Well heck, Karen, I would say that a great start. I get how hard it is to break the habit of isolation. But ultimately that is what kept me sober. Had to have lots of support. And having a work buddy that understands you and your job is even better!
Well crap, my sober friend. I’m so sorry for the loss of your mother. Will be holding space for your sadness today and going forward.
Day 10, feeling positive but a bit flat. Been working since 7am…but feeling just a little rundown still
Going to have a shower, refocus and then crack on with work till five. Then read
Awh man. I’m really sorry. I hope your mother now rest in peace. Sending a lot of hugs.
So sorry my friend. Sending you comfort today.
Even with an estranged parent the loss can hit unexpectedly- please take care of you and know we are here for you.
Hey all, checking in on day 1115. I hope everyone has a good one!
@SoberGuyUSA im so sorry for your loss 
Yaaaassss!!! I love this 
Love

Day 927,
Went to a outdoorshop for new hiking shoes. I really can enjoy good outdoor stuff. They adviced a good pair, then came the price…on internet they are bit cheaper, but without the service. So made up my mind and will go back tomorrow to treat myself. Totally gave no attention to being 2 1/2 year sober, so this is a good opportunity.
Called a fellow to discuss the things I experience tension and anxiety wise. He was not the first to mention that step 4 can bring a lot of turmoil. Makes my doubting about the neurodiagnostic center my therapist proposes. That would bring a halt to my stepwork for weeks. Enough to think about. It was nice the fellow proposed to go on a walk on Friday, on my new shoes 
Day 41. Happy fourth of July everyone, got a call yesterday and going on the 20th to pick out my classes. I’m pretty excited about that. Chest day today and that will be fun as well, I hope my girls have a an amazing time at the fire works man I’m gonna miss not taking them, it makes me so sad sometimes. Much love
Thank you so much for this! I have the day to myself today, no kids all at camp/daycare…going to go where the day takes me (meaning grocery store and drop off 2nd hand things) and brought my bathing suit so i can go for a swim.
I know this is an unpopular opinion amongst parents but I have always loved putting my kids to bed (LOL). My daughter is always trying to hang on to be not leaving (have to pee, need water, can we chat?, etc.), so i thpught…why dont we have a sleepover? Stay up a little later, read a bit more, chat a bit more and have some fun snacks. Sure we cant do it everynight, but i try to listen to what peoples behaviour is telling me…we are not always great at communicating, sometimes we do not even know how we felt until later. Some times instead of thinking what ought to happen (i.e., my kid should go to bed when i say), listening to what someone may be telling you, and try something new.
I love fibding the fun in life. It has been greatly taken away these last 3 years, and sometimes you just have to try something new, try something silly and see wherebit takes you.
Oh we also had some great snacks and that ALWAYS HELPS!
Anyway, wanted to share that little moment. Wishing everyone another 24 xo.
