Enjoy the physical office. I get a lot out of going in 2 days a week. Today is a home day though so enjoying a lazy coffee in bed
Not sure I ever mentioned this, but you were always 10 days ahead of me (before I slipped). I find your numbers really inspiring and motivating because of that. I canāt wait until I am in the triple figures.
Checking in, Day 21. I like these couple of days, 20 yesterday and 3 weeks today
Feeling a lot more healthy and generally less brain fog today. Am hopeful that means I can do a full day at work and be productive. This week is really dragging!
Plans after that are the gym. I am eating terribly at the moment so may try and cook in my down times during the day. We all need a health boost. All I have been wanting to eat since the cold is sugary cereal and crisps!
Have a good day everyone, thank you for being here
Oh no! More training courses to do, more death by PowerPoint
Including that, my life is overall boring. I like boring. Maybe I have time to go all out today and have a bath instead of a shower. Thatāll be the excitement of my day
@Amy30 Back to the future the musical is absolutely amazing!
@Deelzebub I gave up on hello fresh. Always something missing in the boxes (usually a meat item or a whole meal), not getting through to customer service, getting credit or vouchers for missing items that were not redeemable, not getting through to customer service againā¦ frustrating cycle
@calgary5577 No shame! Glad youāre back and huge congratulations for doing your taxes! Itās a massive thing for me too
@Cp25 Hope you feel better soon. Iāve just recovered from my third covid. I prescribe you an epic binge watching session on a streaming service of your choice! (I opted for āhome improvementā on disney plus)
Good luck Jenny, I work from home every day every weekā¦my colleagues are less annoying at home .
I wouldnāt worry too much about the eating at the mo, give it a breather, maybe you need these things and you body is telling you. Itās more important to get to the gym for mental health and not drink also for the same and you are smashing both.
My football (soccer) team lost an absolute heartbreaker in the dying seconds last night, and Iāve had a sh*tty sleep - but starting my new job on Monday so I have that to look forward to.
Only one thing for it today - a hellacious gym session to clear the head and then home to lie on my recliner with a big mug of homemade soup with some crusty bread.
My long weekend started, which will be interrupted by group therapy tomorrow. Besides that Iāll think of some good stuff to do besides the chores that also are waiting for me here. Whatever I do itāll be sober and clean. Because using doesnāt help with anything at all. It doesnāt make the bad times better or the good times more enjoyable. Quite the contrary. Never again. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Love.
Pic is from a Live Oak in the Texas Hill Country a week or two ago. Amazing how it can still prosper and bear fruit after a brutal and lengthy drought.
Yes, Iāve decided to give up on HelloFresh as itās very difficult to get through to customer service as you say. I got them to send me a refund and then Iāll close my account.
On Day 1110 and spent the night in hospital a couple of weeks ago and looks like Iāll be back in tonight. Even after 3 years of sobriety the damage done to your body from decades of abuse may come back to bite you in the arse. We made our choices, we pay the consequences. No point wallowing in self pity or expecting undivided help and attention, like everything else that has happened in recovery we take it one day at a time and do the best we can in any situation.
1110 days and still recovering.
I think i got my answer. I talked to a couple of people that worked at this company. The thing that stood out to me was one of the guys really felt regret for going there. Now granted he went for the Big Pay increase, but money dont buy happiness! He didnāt like the day to day work. Thatās what i worried about too. Iāve been recruited heavily by this company, but i care about the day to day stuff. I have a certain level of freedom where i currently am, iām just not willing to give that up just so i can have more money. Thanks for asking Jazzy! How are you?
Thanks, but its not the self esteem Iām looking for. Itās just the little things in life that Iām actually doing again and noticing they really provide little bits of happiness.
Day 6 AF! Iām feeling great. Iāve taken a mini vacation from work to focus on myself and indulge in some of the hobbies and interests that I have been ignoring in favor of the bars. I feel like a kid again in some respects.
Going to the theater tonight to see a musical based on Elvis. Iām going solo, but Iām good with that. Itās all about me right now.
Went to a sports club for membership. Wanted to swim right away but unfortunately the pool was in use for some group excersises. Now itās time to plan it in to go 2-3 times a week to heal physically. My tension went real high late in the afternoon yesterday. Called my parents, they came over. They left alive again . Had a quick phone call with my brother, he got nothing to say, he just asked if I had a drink. The stupid idiot, he thought it was a normal question. Heās also still alive. Did a sleep meditation for anger and resentment before going to bed. That helped somewhat. HR send me contact info for a re-integration bureau, need to contact them to make a appointment. So there is movement but damn it triggers me everywhere.
Went to the gym at 5 am made a healthy breakfast and Iām making my work lunch now
Iām more productive and a better mother when I donāt use. I used to use to be more āactiveā as I thought it made boring jobs fun. What a lie that was!
