Thank You. Itās been a very hard day so far overall. Intense traffic, bad weather conditions. Lots of cargo to deliver. Feeling tiredā¦
Gotta do what you gotta do 
Our Boss / transport manager - we call her - āMotherā 
Itās good - Mother was in good mood after my report. Ofcourse she said to be careful in the future, but overall she seemed worried and happy that there was no injuries and truck is not damaged. I am happy too after all, if the truck would be damaged there would be money penalty on my shoulders 
Itās good. Everything ended fine.

The uncertainly drags on still with the work scenario, it feels like Iāve been in the dark forever, this week feels like a galaxy of time suspended infinitelyā¦
Attended ACOA twice in two days and I really feel that Iām starting to know/have an idea of what I need to work on in the programmes with regards to ME. I identify as ACOA, it paved the beginning of this ME COPING with using. The laundry list is something to really savour and work on.
But I will not drink today.

Checking in on day 144 AF.
I had a busy morning with getting a haircut and then a meeting with my psychiatric nurse after. She noted that I was looking a lot better and that my medication seems to be working for me. She introduced me to a support worker who I have a follow up appointment in two weeks time. Sheās going to look into art based activities for me.
I was notified today that the window in my messy, cluttered studio space is to be replaced on Monday so Iāll need to clear some space for the joiner. I want to get the space cleared for myself so that I can get back into a daily painting practice. My motivation is still a bit low however.
Iāve managed to get back into the practice of daily breathing exercises again. I had let that slip when I was feeling at my worst.
Wishing everyone an addiction free day.

Checking in on day 106. I wish everyone here well. Iām thinking of a certain convo here latelyā¦
No matter how much or how little we share here, itās all good. Itās about honesty and accountability. When we share our vulnerability itās tough to stay open to all opinions and thoughts we receive. Itās hard to let our guard down and to question our own beliefs, to allow what others say to sink in and touch that soft spot inside that we tend to protect.
We are all doing important work, one day at a time.

Great that you recognize you can identify with ACOA. Tons of people in Al-Anon getting a better life by going to those meetings. Good for you.

Day 76*
Iāve been writing and deleting a lot of posts lately. Hard time for me. I am feeling tremendous sadness and grief. Iām also feeling a lot of pride in what Iāve been accomplishing in my life lately - and then more sadness that sheās not here to see any of it. Celebrating her birthday tomorrow with foods & Genesis. When things get overwhelming I am reminded how much worse this situation would be if I wasnāt sober. I am thankful for the resiliency that sobriety provides.

Day 390 alcohol free
Day 11 social media detox
Today I found a letter in my mailbox. Itās from a former friend of mine who supported my alcoholism. He always told me that I donāt have a problem, I was doing fine in his eyes.
He also told me to f#@$& off when Covid hit and there finally were vaccines available.
Iām pro science, always was and will always be. He thought everything was a hoax and masks are just there to subdue us. Pretty wild stuff.
I felt better after I deleted his number and got myself a new one, I cancelled every social media account and created new ones so that it would be impossible for him to find me.
He never was aggressive but neither understood a No. Bad influence.
His letter made me pretty sad that heās not able to let me go and still tries to get back in contact with me. I wonāt make this mistake again.
And it reminded me of old times, good and bad.
Iām okay, I closed this case for me.
Work started good but became more awful with every hour. Only tomorrow, then: 1 week off 
Have a beautiful sober day friends, stay strong
