@tailee17 good to read from you :blush:
@Hollieberry congrats on 500 days :tada:
@happyfeet congrats on 6 months :tada:
@SoberWalker sorry about the persistent headache :tired_face: might be worth seeing your doctor since it has been going on for so long.
@Alejondra congrats on 9 months :tada:
@Lotusflower congrats on 3 weeks AF :tada: and for tackling the cigarettes too :clap:t2:
@anon84358113 thatā€™s a big win, :clap:t2: I had some close calls in my previous attempt, I always deleted and blocked numbers whenever I received texts from dealers, and one time they caught me when I was feeling suicidal, and before I knew it I was using after 459 days clean, the best thing I have done is change my number, that and my close encounters with death during my relapse.
@Shawn1991 sorry about the stressors, sending strength šŸ©µ but congrats on 30 days :tada:
@DaleCooper welcome :blush: congrats on 13 days :tada:

@IamThechange congrats on 60 days :tada:

1267 days no alcohol.
732 days no cocaine.
247 days no vape.
12 days no binge-eating.

Checking-in with yesterdayā€™s numbersā€¦

Didnā€™t sleep until 3am Monday morning, woke to feed the cats at 9am, then managed to fall back asleep til midday. Got up, did my mornibg routine, then caught the bus into town. Got my dad one of his presents, a card, and some wrapping paper, going to the shopping centre near me to get some other presents today.

Then I went to my pre-therapy assessmentā€¦I was in there for over 1.5hrs, we didnā€™t need to go into detail or depth about anything, but even touching on it was painful. When I got out I was walking to the bus station and pased so many fast food places and shops I could have bought disposable vapes from, and the cravings were intense, but I focused on getting home, allowed my feelings to settle, and recognised them for what they were.

Been catching up here since 9am, itā€™s 11:20am now. Iā€™m going to have breakfast, do my morning routine, then head out to the shopping centre.

Every day same. But different. But still the same.
Iā€™m very busy but also bored like fuck.
I donā€™t sleep good cause kids are sick and it makes me very moody. But hey, 7 months today :slight_smile: Thatā€™s something

Day 77. Well girls came here after school and got to stay the night. Didnā€™t do anything to crazy, just some make up and relax. Made small dinners nothing crazy. Yesterday my new boss from the hospital called asking if I wanted to come in and get my uniform and schedule I said yes Iā€™d be in Friday. I then asked her if hey do you guys have anywhere for my nice e bike to be parked thatā€™s out of the weather. She was kinda snotty about it and was like absolutely not we donā€™t allow those here or to be plugged in, I was like well I donā€™t want to plug it in I just want to keep it out of the weather. To which she replied well I donā€™t know what to tell you. So I was like well ok thanks, meadowbrook man they were so cool, my boss the very first day was like omg you ride a bike here bring it in my office so itā€™s out of the weather. Itā€™s like part of me just feels like I regret my decision. Friday when I get my schedule I hope they have my weekend right so that I can visit my girls. Bc if they donā€™t from my bosses snooty remark yesterday, Iā€™m guessing she wonā€™t switch it if so. But yeah Iā€™m up with the girls and getting them ready for school, I didnā€™t get to hit a meeting last night bc well being with my girls was more important. But yeah idk much love everyone have a great Tuesday

Day 25 AF
Sleep has been improving the last few nights which Iā€™m extremely grateful for
Iā€™ve been feeling off since yesterday. In a bit of a funk, not feeling my typical positive frame of mind.
I am hopeful it is the late night Fri and Sat attending sonā€™s hockey games as Iā€™m typically preparing for bed at 7:30pm, so midnight+ is pretty late. If thatā€™s the case then this Fri-Sat will double suck as itā€™s a repeat back to back game nights.

Anyway, I wish you all an incredible day and hope you are able to choose a great attitudeā€¦ if so send some my way please :pray:

Day 30: feeling good :blush:

I did NOT want to get out of my super comfy, freshly washed bed this morningā€¦ into the cold air. I have a busy day full of client appointments so hopefully it makes the day go fast.

Counting down the hours to get back into my warm, cozy bed that smells like snuggle softener sheets.

Hope everyone has a good day today! :heart:
