It is helping me to focus my thoughts and take a mental snapshot of my program. And also to see what resentments Iāve been hanging onto. I want to share something that might be useful to other people, especially newcomers. So I guess it will be good for me to lead!

Hi Amy, thinking of you and your trip. Its so great how youre always chdcking in and being honest. You help me so much with your shares.
I think fear is normal, and helps us set ourselves up to win. I know the feeling sucks, but healthy fear isnt a bad thingā¦now look at how you prepped yourself. You will go, hopefullh fingers crossed have a great time and set a new memory for yourself in an old place. Hell even if it isnt great, and you manage it sober you will have that satusfied feeling of knowing you did it. You can & you will and that bit of fear is hopefully just helping you lay the foundation you need for a sober trip. Check in with us & let us know how youre doing when ypure there we got you! Xo.

Itās not even 10pm here and Iām already in bed, itās the happiest moment from the whole day.
Last week I started lurking into intherooms.com, joined few times (only listen) but I donāt know, it didnāt clickā¦ I must find something where religion is not so important (atheist here). I need some more help cause lately catching myself on āfuck this shitā to often. And start drinking is last thing I want.

Hi all, evening check in with 51 days. Not too much to report really. Been a strange day but kids are happy. I managed to get out for a nice walk earlier, although very wet! Didnāt get to the gym for reasons beyond my control which was annoying. Tomorrow!
Just settling in for bed now. There are still fireworks going for bonfire night. Couldnāt face a display in the rain and the kids havenāt asked so just looking out the window at them.
Hope everyone is having a good day.

Checking in Day 15)
My mum came to AA with me today. Itās a newcomers meeting and bless her she introduced herself and everyone was so lovely to her. Itās been a good couple of days, to be fair. Iāve had some good conversations, Iāve been getting my groove back in the kitchen and playing a lot of guitar.
Iāve also got a friend whose found some closure in some issues theyāve been having and they were really excited to call me and tell meā¦ it was at midnight last night just after Iād gotten into bed and fallen asleep but heyā¦ when someone has good news, who cares what time of day it is to hear it hmm? Bless her.
I think thatās something Iām finding in sobriety this time round. Iām actively trying not to be selfish and trying to be a better friend, better son, brother, colleague and trying to avoid the trap of getting dry drunk aswell, a term I only heard today which I think really well defined my last stint of sobriety. I didnāt know there was a name for it but i think if the definition I was given is accurate, thatās basically what it was.
Speaking of guitar, I actually picked one up at random in a shop the other day and I played the end solo to āThe great pretenderā by Slash and someone in the shop started crying. Iāve only ever had that effect once and that was with the comfortably numb solo so that was a bit of a weird thing to witness!
Iām also not very happy because some bird has shat all over my French doors and Iām not cleaning it!
Itās my first Sunday service tomorrow at work in nearly a year. I always loved doing Sunday service so Iām pretty stoked to be doing that again 
I cleaned the shit out of half of it today, not that it was bad but it just hadnāt been done because the boss has been working alone and didnāt have time so it was good to get into his good books aswell.
Hugs not drugs

Sober day 6.
Another fucking migraine to start my day. At least I have a prescription that helps and I was also able to get that refilled today.
Napped a lot. Then made chili and cornbread for dinner. I wasnāt at all motivated to cook, but glad I did. I enjoy cooking and baking when I have the energy. And it turned out really yummy. And Iāll have leftovers for days.
I just hope the headaches ease up soon. Not tempted to drink today.
