Checking in daily to maintain focus #60

1633


Having my coffee on my day off. Not quite sure what to do today as I’d like to be outside but I see the rain slowly changing to sleet. Let’s take my time and think of some stuff to do. I dreamt about clearing out a garage. Not mine but it was my stuff, including the rolled up carpet that was on the floor in my room when I last lived with my mum some 45 years ago :thinking:.

Anyway. I am sure I’ll remain sober and clean today and I expect the same from all of you. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Love. Pic is a reminder of warmth and travels and friends and kitties.

Nighttime check in 648.
Today was my seven year marriage anniversary with my husband. We’ve been together for 18ish. We spent it how we normally spend days off; cleaning, relaxing and shopping for the week and ending the night with a movie. We cooked Thanksgiving sides for dinner and a tiny lobster tail as our anniversary treat.

We also decided to stay married for another year at least. It may sound silly but on our anniversary we talk about it. We love each other and we know that at any moment one of us could decide to go. We decided to stick with it today.

Just like sobriety you could always choose differently. Today I choose to keep trying to love better, both my husband and myself through sobriety. Keep choosing.

I thixed button mapping on my ‘‘Sobriety Portal’’ :sweat_smile:
Now it’s working correctly. All buttons doing it’s job. It also has backwards buttons to go back and to not get lost. Main idea is to give sort of rewind through all the journey. Ofcourse I hope to add more in the future, but for Today, let’s keep it to the point.

''One Button at a Time" :nerd_face:

Early bed and recovery sleeping. My sleep is Soooo good lately. Loving it.

Monday is always a bit gritty, but friction makes smooth surfaces. Keep scrubbing.

Day 2. Listened to sober podcast. Drank coffee. Posted items. Feeling physically unwell but taking the right steps. Looking at AA groups to go to. Looking at group therapy sessions. Journalled. Booked therapy session 1 to 1 for tomorrow. Booked Doctors appointment. Just slowly seeing what I need to do for my health today. Messaged a friend I am meeting on Weds about my drinking so she knows where I am and I don’t have to explain it on Weds. Feel like I need to take as many pre-cautionary steps.

Good luck to everyone today on a Sober Monday.

Day 1,263 clean and sober today if I did the math right lol. Been awhile since I’ve been here and I hope all is well with everyone. Life got pretty dark again for awhile but I believe I’ve found the right medication combination to help alleviate my depression etc. I hope everyone has an amazing day, love you guys :sunglasses::metal:t2:
