Checking in on Friday late afternoon
443 days free of alcohol and weed
858 days free of cigarettes
Been a decent day. Hanging with mom who is doing much better. My pain is a lot more tolerable than yesterday but still intense. The nurse advised that i get back on pain killers but i will continue without them for now. Was able to do some light cleaning and cooking today so that was great for me (mainly mentally). I hate sitting around.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening - sending you all so much love

Checking in. Todayās therapy session was about quitting smoking, it was great to talk it through. I have a few days left and then Iāll start. Iām looking forward to actively doing something so good and important for my health and for my future recovery from the surgery, but Iām also pretty anxious about that. Otherwise not much to report.

Yeah, my cat just got too close to the candle. I didnāt see it happen, but I smell it 
Ugh, I was exhausted this morning and napped on the couch after my daughter left. Idk what it is about this couch, but I always have the same type of vivid dreams and end up with sleep paralysis. Never happens in bed or on the old couch. Itās always a dream where I think I wake up and get off the couch and do normal, everyday things, like itās real life. Then when I actually try to wake up my body wonāt move and my eyes are so heavy they wonāt open and I canāt get out of the dream. Itās really bizarre. Like Iām in another dimension or something. The couch is 60 years old. Might be haunted 
Once I did get moving, it was a great day. I got to work and was told I was bartending, which I had no idea. Bartending on Fridays is the absolute worst. Three hours of pure chaos, two steady hours, and then 3 hours of cleanup. I did make it through, and the money was worth it, but man do I feel it. My feet ache and my hands feel so stiff and sore from polishing hundreds of glasses. Iām also super wired. Itās nonstop and I donāt have the option to eat even a bite, which gives me too much energy. And now I donāt want to stuff my face this late at night just to make myself tired. Ah well, I donāt have to wake up for anything. Guess Iāll start a movie. Hope everyoneās weekend is amazing

Got some boxing rounds in with the wife. The kids also were able to train this morning, so good day down the gym for all of us.
Got some errands done as a famiky then went for lunch.
Just finished up some games with the kids before they go to bed and Iāll settle in with a camomile and thatāll be that for the day.
Oh and my team lost last night @acromouse

@Just_Laura Couch sounds definitely haunted I hope you get to sleep in your bed some time again.
@Steve14 Enjoy your free day. I think itās a rule of the universe that you wake up way to early on the days you could sleep in. Like I did todayš
@JazzyS Meaningful work is soooo important for our mental health. Good thing you have things you are able to do and feel like youāre taking care of. Speedy recovery to your mum and yourself 
@Yelena How are you doing today friend?
@CATMANCAM I have been around here only for about two months. But what I have read from what youāve shared I see a person with soooo much determination. Everyday you tackle really difficult things and you just donāt give up no matter how hard they are. You will get out. It might take more time then youād like. But you will. You are an inspiration to me.
@Juli1 I find mornings really difficult too. Wishing you a good start.
108 sugar
6 UPF
1 overeating/binge
Goals for today: keeping food journal, mindfulness practice while eating, practicing HALT through the day so I donāt get to a place where I neglect my needs so long Iāll binge out of despair.
Yesterday was an overall better day already and I slept better this night. I would still wake up for short moments several times but then fall back asleep. That is definitely much better than tossing and turning for hours with a raving heart. Iāll up the dosage on my meds and see if that helps even more.
I woke up quite depressed but reading here always picks me up and I have good thing planned.
I want to take care of my plants and IT systems today. Yoga, a bike ride in the nice weather, sunshine. And maybe Iāll finally get to watch my anime series in the evening. Iām ready for life and whatever the day may bring: ODAAT
Have a day of peace, kindness and freedom friends

Finishing my coffee and breakfast. Itās that time of day Iām struggling in my mind to go and put my bike gear on and get ready to go outside on a chilly morning. Iām going to do it. And have a nice ride. Had a nice easy day yesterday. Got some good stuff at my favourite organic growers/grocers, enough to last me a couple of days. Love that place. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Sober and clean. Love.
Isnāt it the other way round friend? With āchecking inā in my mind having a broader meaning than just posting here. Itās working our Recoveries. Making our lives worth living. Not relying on obsolete coping mechanisms like indulging in substance abuse, but instead finding better and healthier ways. Itās good to see you. One day at a time for all of us.
@Binx Always good to see you friend. Hereās hoping youāve learned the lesson that drinking doesnāt help with anything. Hope I never forget it too.
