Checking in day 49
It’s another lovely day here, still no snow! Iike snow! There should be snow here by now! Grrr!
Anyways … hubby came home for the weekend. We are having a lazy morning, thinking it’s time to start figuring out his family’s x- mas presents. I hate doing this every year! They live in New Brunswick, I don’t know them that well, his mother is bloody impossible.to shop for … she:s old, she has everything g she wants fer fuck sakes.
Every year we go through this crap. And the cost shipping it all out there is ridiculous! This is so NOT my favorite time of year … I could live just fine without Christmas!
Phew, that turned out to be one hell of a rant :astonished:
Apparently I have some “feelings” about that :joy:
Ok … on that note I’m having another coffee to prepare to do shopping battle.
Ya’ll have yourselfes a safe and sober day :purple_heart:

@mira_d So great that your hubby’s pieces are being appreciated and he is getting more requests. Best of luck with your interview on Tuesday!
@lotusflower Thank you so much Des for your kind words :people_hugging: Appreciate you and grateful to be on this journey with you. Oh I am thrilled to hear about your meetings and your possible sponsor opportunity. You are putting in the effort and it shows. Love your line of “My higher power is where ever I am and in others” :heart:
@bunto congrats on your almost 20 days of sobriety! That is impressive. I know it’s hard to not think about love / companionship but I feel the beginning stages of sobriety should be all about you. Most people in recovery give relationship seeking a break during this process. You are doing great with your sober time – I am sure you will find someone just right for you when the time is right… don’t give up hope and keep going strong.
@anon84358113 way to go – 1 week milestone is amazing work! I do love the analogy of a toddler – so true. Your addict voice will play tricks, throw tantrums — it will settle down the more you ignore it. Just think of the day in front of you as for me when I start worrying about the future days or events I put myself into a panic and then the urges get stronger. Keep doing what you are doing :muscle:
@trixie1 have a wonderful time connecting with your sister. Remember that we are right here if you should need us. Grateful that your sister is supportive of your journey :hugs:
@beth2 welcome back Beth and a great job with 62 days!
@selflove_42 OH I am so sorry for all that you both are going through right now. I do hope that she is not in pain. Hopefully the antibiotics will help and she will be able to recover soon :pray:
@noshame Way to go with your timers – 4 months vape free is amazing !!! :muscle: :clap: Tada:
@wakikki oh man I am so sorry to hear that you are suffering from Covid. I can totally understand the house going down when you are ill – try to rest and get better. Hopefully the symptoms are not too severe. Sending you healing energy my friend. :hugs:
@frank68 I think you shorted yourself my friend – Happy day 32! Enjoy your Saturday :smile:

Happy Saturday morning my sober friends…
Day started off well - had a lovely stretch and then enjoyed my coffee time with mom. I then came home and had a mini fight with my brother. He does not want me doing any cooking / baking for Thanksgiving as i am not well but i feel like i need to do something. I know this is such a silly thing to fight about – so frustrating. I said that i at least wanted to help with something and his ass gave me salads…NAH - my mind can’t go from preparing the whole meal to just salads LOL. I know he is looking out for me but i am just a little frustrated (not sure why i can’t let go of this need to do it all). It is a learning moment for me. I hope i do learn :laughing:
Well - its a super sunny warm fall day. I am going to try to make the best of it. Hope you all have a wonderful addiction free day / evening. Sending you all so much love :heart: :heart:
