Heyhey,
Checking in today to maintain focus. So, my plan for today:
)Something like that, letās seeā¦
Already planning for tomorrow when the week starts again too! Several things Iām looking forward to setting in motionā¦
Have a wonderful sunday guys! 
Got out of work relatively early tonight. Itās weird bc I feel like the past few Saturdays I had somewhere to go for fun, but not tonight. Itās fine though. I can relax tonight and get some good sleep so I can get up and get things done tomorrow.
I donāt know if itās the weather changing, but Iāve been a bit stuffy and feel congested the past couple days. And now a headaches coming on. I donāt feel sick though. Itās funny though. Iāve been sick once, maybe twice, since I quit drinking, and it was a cake walk. Nothing compared to hangover sicknesses. Iād always up my intake when I got sick, to forget I was sick, but in turn suffer even longer. Glad I know thatās not a solution now.
Well, thereās not a whole lot more to say. Just gonna relax before bed and try not to overwhelm myself by thinking about everything I need to get done. Thank you @JazzyS for reminding me that everything will eventually get done. Itās true, so I need not focus on it all.
Goodnight my friends 
Glad you could help your friend!
Hopefully you can slowly start adding Foodā¦ also fluids, juices, water, whatever you are able to tolerate. Bodies need salt, sugar, nutrients. You may get a job next week! @SadMemeQueen
Sleep well @Soberbilly and wake peacefully. Glad the Tara Brach was helpful to you and that youāre comfortable in your head about the āinsultā you had that was hurtful to you.
#Day 1810 
Sometimes I loose my trust in people for a while. Friday was such a day. I was cleaning the windows of the shop I work in when I heared shouting. When I looked I saw a young guy, almost a kid, beating up a old man at the end of the street surrounded by bystanders who tried to help.
I ran inside to get our phone and when I called the police outside the kid passed me on his scooter so I could see his face and licenseplate.
The victim where helped by bystanders and was bleeding. He probably broke his nose.
I heared someone photographed the licenceplate so they lifted the guy from his bed early next morning. He was 16 years old. The old guy has asked him to quit driving on the sidewalk.
This kind of stuff makes me sad.
Just another day in my hometownā¦

Checking in on day 2 
Checking in, day 61. I slept terribly and am now wide awake waiting for my children to appear. My sonās birthday today and I am so proud of him. Keep thinking back over the last 14 years. What is it about birthdays that makes you look back?
I am going to leave it there as could write several paragraphs, feel like once I start writing it will turn into an essay. Feeling all out of sorts.
Checking in, Sunday hangover-free morning.
Headache is gone although I feel a bit weird still.
Iām afraid you might be right @JennyH (Happy Birthday for your son) @icebear @happyfeet @CATMANCAM @JazzyS and itās migraine.
Luckily I fall asleep pretty early yesterday and I had some good sleep so Iām ready and happy for another sober day.
My two little kittens are with new family, 3rd day now. Iām so grateful we found such a good ppl and they took both of them together. They are sending me fotos and updates, they are happy and cats seems happy, kids mention them from time to time but itās better than I thought it would be.
Have a good Sunday everybody 
1548

Love your photos - your commute looks like youāre already on vacation ! 
Hope you have a productive day at work. Three days to go

Hey all, checking in on day 1176. I hope everybody has a good one!
Iām here, Iām alive and Iām sober.
Day 21.
@Soberbilly @JazzyS @M-be-free49
Iām still here yāall.
Currently having the cold from hell, so I havenāt really had the energy to do anything, not even log in here.
Iāve checked occasionally, and now I saw that a lot of you have been asking where I went.
So I thought Iād make a post, to not make yāall to worried.
My husband had to go back the the hospital because he got an infection in one of the wounds from the surgery. Heās back home again and hopefully itāll heal without a problem.
Iāve managed to book the Halloween Party, the Ghost train ride and the Hotel Stay at Daftƶresort and Daftƶland as I was hoping for. (The Pirate Theme park)
Unfortunately we couldnāt go back to the Old Western theme park this weekend because of my husbands health and the rest of us being down by this cold. But hopefully the Halloween celebration at the Pirate Theme park makes up for it.
Me and the kids had been out for over a week, fever, headache,sore throat and cough. Iām feeling a bit better today, but have barley no voice left. The curse of having a cold with asthma.
Iām praying that my husband wonāt be sick, so weāve more or less isolated him from us during all this. But this far he seems well. If he gets sick heāll need to go back to the hospital.
The insurance (or as it is in our country FƶrsƤkringskassan owned by the government) wonāt give him a dime because they said that his Doctors opinion, which you have to send to them, wasnāt valid. So now weāre trying to get the doctor to write one they will approve. We have two weeks until they close the case and weāll need to apply again. Which takes as minimum 9-12 months.
The pharmacy in our entire country is out of his meds so he has gotten new ones that doesnāt really do the trick. For me itās a freaking mystery how a well developed country, with one of the highest tax rates and government owned pharmacies can be out of meds. But unfortunately itās not unusual.
But overall, itās all good.
Thank you all for looking after me, wishing yāall a great Sunday.
Iām going to rest and hope that this cold is going to pass very soon.
Day 92. TW vomiting
The morning anxiety has worsened today. I woke just after 7 and just lay there worrying. I tried my breathing and to dulls the anxiety a little but then it builds again. Eventually when I did get out of bed I vomited several times and was shaking throughout my body. I made a pot of tea and went back to bed and did some puzzles, and then I had my shower (three ohms under a cold blast) and I went to the corner shop for some eggs so that I could make the kidās pancakes. The smell of the cooking was getting to me so Iāve come back through to the bedroom while they eat.
Iāll get in touch with my GP first thing tomorrow morning as although I have an appointment in a couple of weeks I think I need to speak to her sooner rather than later. I have a fear of becoming depressed again, and I wonder if itās happening again. Thanks @Soberbilly for your suggestions, I may ask about Cymbalta tomorrow.
Iām still just drinking tea at the moment as I still donāt have an appetite but I did pick up some scones from the shop so I can have one of those once I feel better.
Wishing everyone an addiction free day.
Get well soon, all of you at your house @MrsOdh ā¦ I missed you too and just sent energy that whatever was wrong would get better. Glad you all have some nice plans to look forward too.
Thereās drug shortages in the US too. Itās sad and scary.
@Deelzebub hope youāll get through your day okay and glad youāre going to see the GP sooner than later. Hugs for your instability youāre having ā¦. I think of you as strong and stable but also realize that you have your ānot as good as other timesā times. Please eat a scone for me. Hope you can do something therapeutic like make the bread. Feel better soon. 
Big hugs.
Oh Iāve read about that in the news. So sad !
Hi Megan, sorry youāve had to go through that with your friend and itās created some panic for you as well. Iām familiar with how unsettling and helpless that can feel. Just wanted to suggest 988 (suicide and crisis lifeline) for you and your friend. It has text, chat, and call options. (You can also reach out to them for support if you find yourself in the talking down situation again!) I hope you find a way to unpack your feelings as you go through this with your friend. Just remember to take care of yourself too! My therapist years ago gave me this nugget that changed my perspective on life/myself/my responsibilitiesā¦ self preservation does not make you selfish! If it becomes too much for you, donāt feel bad involving someone else who is better equipped and not emotionally tied to the situation. sending you strength and love. Please reach out if you need any extra support. Signed, a-hot-mess-social-worker-who-knows-lots-of-resources-who-sucks-at-using-them-herself

Just checking in 
Checking in, day 53.
Good morning all. Iām here, todayās plansā¦ crush it and wake up to that 9 on the counter tomorrow. Trying to hit an online SMART meeting today. Ordered the workbook and it should be here today. Always swore off meetings and we see where that got me. Insanity. Going to try something different this time, I know AA isnāt for me, so figured Iād give SMART a go. They have meetings for military/veterans, so want to check those out too. Other than that, just going to enjoy this beautiful sober Sunday. Oh and hopefully the tattoo artist gets back to me and I can go get some ink therapy today. 
@Just_Laura hope every gets to feeling better in your house! The allergies have been kicking our butt here too. The wonky weather has been giving us hell! Sending healing vibes to you and your fam.
@SoberWalker that is awful! Sorry you had to witness that! Iāve found that Iām starting to sound like my parents/grandparents when I say some kids really need a good spanking. Lol
@Juli1 congrats on 2 days! Keep kicking ass! 
@Soberbilly Congrats on being so close to the number we will not mention!!! 
Happy sober Sunday yāall!!!
