winding down on 3 weeks AF, 3.5 days nicotine-free, starting to realize that i might have to crumble from all the grief and pain i held back for so long, and not sure how to do it safely and be supported through it, especially while being the sole caretaker/provider for my 16 month old boy. getting scared.

Hey ya’ll,

Managed to stay up till midnight and pulled my classic Irish exit. Its a signature move I stand by. Love having the boys here. When hubby and I boughy our house and were looking we wanted a place that pepple would want to come to visit hecause it felt like a vacation and getaway for them…I just love our home and space; and love that we found exactly that.

Another one of our friends is moving out our way. That brings the grand total to 3 of our boys. It makes me so happy. My husbands friends have always been such a core part of his life. Theyve known eachother since they were kids, and theyve been an ever present part of our relationship. I fewl so fortunate to love all of them…

Took my daughter to a bday party tpday and met another family who just moved here too that have 3 daughters. My daughter knows all of them and gets along with rhem really well. Made me happy to see her happy, and it was nice to meet some new people as well who seem really nice. Got home to an awesome evening with kids & friends. Son road his little tractor down to where the neighbour had his tractor ajd trucked and we played in the field for a bit. Just his whole VIBE around the tractors js so adorable. Hes 2 and knows balers, combines, John Deere, hay handler etc. I read him the AG Guide as his bedtime story its jusy hilarious to me.

Anyway, good day all around. And theres alcohol in my house and quite a bit, and just had this thought loke wow i would be thinking about having a drink but the only part of me that was like “hi” was the sneaky part of my brain. And i was just loke oh yeh, and how good would it feel 5 drinks in? OR WHAT ABOUT TOMORROW? Yeh no thanks. Im happy, Im good and I do not feel like a drink thank you very much.

Still got the quittinf smoking and exercising on my mind. Big rhings for me. Keep writing them here until i make them happen. ODAAT XO. HAPPY 24

Day 594
I am DONE with peopling today. I am wayyyyy overstimulated. I walked thru the door and just felt exhausted and emotional. Started tearing up bcuz i felt just done with everything. Its just been one of those days I guess :woman_shrugging: I got a big hug from my son tho and that helped alot. I do feel bad about one interaction i had with another woman. I was kind of rude with her. My frustration with the day was projected onto her unfortunately :expressionless: I will have to do better next time. Im just relaxing now with my boy before putting him to bed. Then will do some self care. I need it!
Hope everyone is having an enjoyable addiction free day today :butterfly:

End of Day 12:

What a beautiful day to be sober! Slept the best i have since day 1. It was the deep sleep i have been longing for, the type of sleep where it takes forever to wake up because your body is just soaking it in.

Went to my nephew’s football game, such a blast watching him play and seeing the progress he’s made.

Drove home along the base of the mountains near my home, took some pictures of the amazing fall colors bursting onto the trees more and more every day.

Lunch with an old friend i haven’t seen in a long time. Good food, great conversation and lots of laughs.

Then i have both my kids at my house tonight. Pizza and movie night! Love having them both here at the same time. Really looking forward to breakfast with them out on the patio, banana/lime pancakes, cinnamon honey butter and buttercream syrup. Our favorite breakfast!

Perfect day to be sober, grateful i was able to enjoy all of it!

Sweet dreams everyone!
