Woke up late by accident
Got dressed and ran out the door for work
Not letting it hold me back
Moving forward
One thing I learned while in college this last time is that even if my best meant I got 1% on a test/exam and I failed, I still did my best and thereās no shame in that.
I had to adjust my expectations of myself.
Funny thing is,ā¦ I ended up being pretty close to a straight A student in my program.
The world works in mysterious ways.
That it does my friend. Thanks for your kind words and continued support. Put a smile on my face Iām trying to definitely change my expectations and mindset like you said. I like the saying āshoot for the moon, even if you fall, youāll land among the starsā puts a positive spin on both !!
Thatās definitely accurate! You got this
Day 716
Feeling much more myself today. Woke up tired but pushed myself to go to the gym. Ended up having an amazing workout. Did back exercises and 30 min of cardio (without any knee pain). Felt sooo good to be moving my body and strengthening it. Came home full of energy! Did dishes and am now prepping my lunch. The weather is absolutely gorgeous today also so that helps the mood. Not much else happening right now. Just enjoying my day
@Jules000 love that your subconscious was looking out for you. Amazing how deep down we know how to protect ourselves
@dalecooper Welcome to the community Dale! 13 days is amazing work ā you are among a very supportive group of people- glad you are here with us on this journey!
@mrfantastik We do have some off days. Its ok to allow yourself some down time. I do hope that your new activity for today was fun and provided you with the motivation you needed
@acromouse Sending you healing vibes my friend ā sorry you are unwellā¦ wishing you a quick recovery
@steve92 Congrats on your 1 week milestone! Keep working on you. Each day you abstain is a day gained and just makes you that much stronger.
@iamthechange WOOT WOOT Ami ā great job on your 2 months of sobriety! Made me laugh with the beef stew celebration idea I do hope you find a wonderful way of celebrating your accomplishment.
@catmancam so proud of you for not giving into those cravings. Sorry that the session was so emotional and taxing. Grateful that you were able to let them settle. Here if you ever need a shoulder
@mischa84 WOWZERS Girl ā way to go with your 7 months. I do hope that you get some rest soon. Sending you loads of love ā you are doing amazing work!
@ofmiceandroach You are doing great Emma with 24 days! I am so sorry that you are not feeling so great. We are here if you need to vent. Hopefully you will be able to do something for yourself in the form of selfcare that might help with the mood as well. Sending you hugs
Today started off great and went to hell in a hand basket by lunch. Itās been a busy day, audacity is at an all time high today, and my 10th graders school called in the middle of the chaos bc heās āsickāā¦ Iām pretty sure it was all the Takis he ate last night and not an actual tummy bugā¦ but I digress ā¦
I just needed to vent it out somewhere. Hopefully venting here was fine?
Hereās to the second half of the day getting so much better #PositiveVibesMovingForward
@tifflynn07 Great work on your 1 month!! Iām sorry that your day went downhill. This is def the place to come and lash out - vent - scream. We need a safe space to do so. I hope it helped. Keep going strong
@solareclips One month of sobriety is awesome ā keep fighting the good fight
@jp123 Nicely done with 3 week milestone! Grateful that you had such a lovely welcoming experience with you AA meeting. They really are the best -awesome to be among others who understand the struggle in real life.
Checking in on Tuesday afternoon
woke up early enough with another crappy night of sleep. Loved that i was able to get some mom / coffee time in Got my zoom meeting completed and was able to catch up on TS. I did try to dye streaks of green in my hair ā epic fail! No color whatsoever! So dissapointed
On my way to take mom to her appointmentā¦ wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day! Sending you all so much love
High school and teenagers are no joke. Iām constantly in a battle over what I would consider common sense things.
Emptying a school backpack before the leftover lunch turns black green and fuzzy.
Flushing the toilet and replacing the toilet paper roll.
Taking showers shorter then an hour.
To name but a few lol
Yassssss ā¦ see I knew I found my people here.
Heās fine. I know he is. No fever. He was a pain last night all over the place and normal this morningā¦ but let me drop everything and come get you so you can vacation at home the rest of the day ā¦ it was just not on my bingo card today
Thank you @JazzyS
Iāve learned that to keep my sanity, I need to choose my battles very carefully. Somewhere between a barn and a psych ward is the line I have to tread carefully.
I felt that in my soul
