Checking in day 21! Feeling ok and not craving alcohol at all at the moment. Had a difficult day as my dog has just had a pretty big operation, so sad to see her in pain and not herself from all the medication. Going to be a long recovery period for her so I will be playing vet from now on! Hope everyone has had a good sober day

Day 727
Work is over. It was a relatively slow day today. Just waiting for my bus now. I have to stop by the grocery store and pick up more childrens tylenol bcuz my son is sick yet again 
He spiked another fever last night.
The buddy shift didnt go well either. The new nurse came to her shift sick so she ended up leaving at 230am. She told our regular nurse that she had been throwing up prior to leaving her place. My son gets sick very easily (this is his 2nd time in a week getting ill) and i wasnt happy about her showing up in that state. I emailed the scheduler mentioning all my concerns. Obviously she wont be coming back which means that this week i will need to prepare myself for some awake overnight shifts. It is what it is. Ill make it work 
Ive also been having some fairly strong urges to use my DOC. So im working thru that now too. My mind is trying to make me see the benefits of using and im fighting that off by playing the tape to the end. Just alot going on right now. Idk. Feelinf pretty stressed i guess. Anyway, have a great day/evening everyone!

@Butterflymoonwoman I really hope your son feels better soon 🩵 remember how desperate you were to get clean, that’s what I always remind myself of any time I start romanticising, because it’s something I’ll never forget. Sending strength 🩵 you’re almost at 2 years too, might be the ‘milestone malady’, so hang tight and these urges might go away in a few days
1279 days no alcohol.
744 days no cocaine.
259 days no vape.
4 days no binge-eating.
I had barely any sleep last night so I’ve been very sleepy today.
I attended the online Survivors Zoom from 10:30-12:30. It got deep really fast, we had a good discussion about gender, sexuality, relationships, and goals, it was good, I’m glad I went.
I have been communicating with customer services, all afternoon and evening, about 188 items that were missing from my meal replacements order. Since placing the order, I’ve heard that they are closing down, I asked them and they ignored that question and also said they were unable to advise when the items would be back in stock, so in the end I requested a refund. It has taken 9hrs of communicating backwards and forwards, but I have now received a refund for the missing and unavailable items. The relief! Now my brain can rest. 
Tomorrow, I plan to be productive and do some cleaning and de-cluttering. Hoping for the energy to do so.
I hope you’re all having wonderful sober weekends.

Thank you for your check in bcuz it gave me a bit of a reality check with where Im at right now and where I want to be.

Ahhh yes that mikestone malady. I completely forgot about that. Whenever I think about that desperation to get clean i always start tearing up. Thats a a very dark hopeless place that i never EVER want to go back to. Thank u for that reminder friend. That actually helped me more than u know.
Glad ur online survivors meeting was good!! But im so sorry to hear about the looong time it took for u to get ur refund. Jeeze. It really shouldnt be that difficult for them. But glad it was sorted out hope u have a great evening!

T-12 minutes to the close of day 44. Today was a very productive day, got lots of little things done in the house, exercised, took my dog out for a walk. I was feeling very positive in general & now not so much. Therapy today just felt like we were chatting, I didn’t come out feeling like I got anything out of it. He seemed to spend a lot of time talking about himself. It was only our 3rd session but it’s also a lot of money. Feeling very unsure about it all. Not sure I want to continue.
