Checking in on day 80 AF.
The realization that resentment has become my comfort zone for a very long time hits home. It’s progress again I assume. Letting go of this feels so naked
Day 110
Busy at work… all good. Day off tomorrow! May watch paddington2 or fatal attraction tonight…
80 is awesome, keep rockin it!!
Good day to all, day 92 here.
Day 12. Hasn’t been difficult so far, but for the second time since I had my last drink I’m heading into my weekend - that’s where it gets tricky. I made it through last weekend, so I can do it again.
I’m heading to NYC tomorrow for a dental appointment, and then I plan to hit a few bookstores. I’m looking forward to that - it’s a trip I’ve put off for awhile because I was too hungover to go on Fridays (Thursday is a night I would typically hit the pub because I don’t work Fridays).
Checking in, feeling a little fragile. I was experiencing a craving already as spent my lunch break doing my job application. Now I have found out that the meeting/farewell I am about to join has bubbly as part of it I feel like I am not prepared!
Do you have time to pick yourself up an AF alternative to the bubbly? Even some sparkling water? I hope it’s not too tough on you. We’re all cheering you on!
I am hoping you don’t have a dip in CF after your Covid jab. My goodness – why must they bring bubbly into the meeting. Do you have a drink for yourself? Are you able to grab water? Something to have in hand.
Sending you support from across the pond!
Checking in on day 130 AF.
I’m feeling quite a lot better today. I went to the mid morning yoga class, the sun was out as I walked back. I then showered, had my breakfast and did some puzzles. I then headed out for a walk and to get the ingredients for dinner in. My daughter has asked me to make her ramen for tonight, which I haven’t made in ages. I like to make it like they have in Wagamama.
I’m meeting a friend tomorrow morning to go for a walk and a chat and then we may both go to the lunchtime yoga, but we’ll see how we’re feeling.
Oh no, good luck. Stay strong
@hoss how are you doing? Hope all is going smoothly with the closing and prep for moving.
YES! You are moving in the right direction and moving with proper tools. Love your motivation and drive. You are crushing it!
@thumper1213 Great job on 65+ days of sobriety! Sorry about the emotional roller-coaster. The beginning was super hard for me in learning how to deal with the emotions I’ve spent so long trying to stiffen or ignore. Sending you comfort and strength as you unfold all the emotions. It does get easier
@sobreietyforme 3 weeks WOOT WOOT way to go my friend – keep strong
@sadmemequeen Oh love that is a horrible dream! How are you feeling today?
@wakikki so grateful to hear about how well your appointments went today – I do hope that you are able to get the help you need in order to start healing. My goodness – I didn’t realize the last two seasons had so many more episodes. So I’m now on Season 11 episode 5 – shit is so awesome – can’t wait to talk about it with you
@deelzebub I always wondered how you did your lovely art – this is sooo cool. I do hop you are able to print and frame. So lovely to hear that you are doing well my friend – have fun making Ramen tonight
@mylife21 DOUBLE DIGITS! Hells yeah – look at you go! Keep up the amazing work
@barber508 well done on your 1 month + of sobriety! I too had to keep away from people places and things and am just now starting to re-integrate myself into society. Keep doing what you are doing – it does get easier.
@amy30 270 days is amazing and your upcoming 9 months …wow – that’s just awesome. 9 months hit me differently too (I wasn’t expecting it). You have come a long way in these past months and have gained so much strength – flex those sober muscles my friend – you deserve to celebrate your accomplishments. I do hope the milestone malady shoves off soon.
Thank you all, I went armed with my water bottle and made it through. People were sitting way too close with theirs but luckily it just made me feel a bit ill. This place is awesome
Oh grateful to hear this – You are rocking it with your sober muscles…
just saw that today is 4 weeks – So awesome!!!
day 70
Just checking in.
YES!! So happy for you. Hope you are enjoying your day off with wifey today. Great work on your timers
@butterflymoonwoman Hey Dana – how are you doing today? I’m sorry yesterday was such a blah day. It is so true that nothing changes if nothing changes. I am sending you strength and motivation to hopefully get back into your routines. I know when you are praying / meditating and working out that everything else just falls into place. Are you still working on your DBT Skills?
@dolse71 3 years 3 weeks This is fantastic Paul! Keep up the amazing work
@starlight14 this is indeed grate news love! Thank goodness for a resilient body. Don’t stress about the low levels – I too get my B12 injections and I know in time you will get your folate and b12 back up). Grateful for living a healthy addiction free lifestyle so our bodies can heal properly.
@tragicfarinelli Ooh I will keep an eye out for additions to your family Happy Anniversary love – hope you and your partner have a wonderful celebration planned
@brl81 80 days @timetochange 110 days is amazing – keep up the awesome work
@marlowe Happy Thursday and great job in mentally preparing for another sober weekend. Love the bookstore idea – what fun it will be to get lost in words. Hope you have a wonderful day and of course a wonderful addiction free weekend ahead.
@selflove_42 70 days – YEAH – so close to your celebration dinner
Checking in on Thursday morning. Yesterday was rough all around and i’m grateful that i was able to spend it in bed. Today is already starting off better so i am grateful for that. I am grateful that i was able to read on here and keep my motivation and positivity up. Thank you to all on the TS site and so many lovely threads to keep me distracted.
Have a lot to get done but will not overdo it (will pace myself and let my energy level lead the way). Time for more coffee now
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day - sending you all much love
Thank you so much Jasmine
