Happy President’s Day! Very irritable this morning and I’m not sure why. The good thing is that I recognize the fact that im irritable. This will hopefully allow me ro roor out the cause and at the very least avoid people until im in a better place.
Aww, that’s shit Amy. Hopefully the meds may help, but I know that’s not your preferred avenue. I wish you some brighter days ahead and a break from your anxiety.
Sending positive vibes
Checking in Day 40
Very proud of myself
It’s been tough, emotional rollercoaster, temptations but I’m planting my feet and staying
strong, telling myself “I want to be sober”
Good luck to all this week, sending love and strength xo
Had an incredible sleep last night. Lots of REM and deep sleep and long, like 10 hours… much longer than my avg 7.5 hrs.feel great.
I cannot lose weight, though I am trying my damnest, but I suspect it’ll come if I remain on the path. So today is going to be an intensive leg day in the gym. They are going to pay a price I am afraid.
Son borrowed Jeep to go to Que for a snowboard trip with a bud and rented an Airbnb for a few nights. Hit a massive snowstorm so he was white knuckling it for a bit, but after his 13 hours on the road made it and immediately in the hot tub, lol.
All said, and while I am tired of winter, we had a fresh dump of snow. It did make for a beautiful view when I woke up, so I sat out on deck with my coffee and soaked in the beauty of it all.
Checking in today, sat at hospital whilst my dad gets his radiotherapy start of week 2 of 6,feeling extremely tired but staying positive, being around so many getting cancer treatment is a real eye opener to how fragile life can be. Have a blessed day
Checking in on Monday morning. I didn’t get as much done as planned yesterday. Woke up with a headache, but figured it would go away after i got moving. Nope. Did my B12 shot and took some Tylenol, that didn’t help either. I went into work and got a few things done that couldn’t wait until today, picked up a few items at the store and stopped by the bowling alley to see how my husband was doing in a tournament he was in. It was loud and chaotic and i wasn’t in the mood for it so i left, went home and lazed on the couch with the cats the rest of the day. I sorta feel bad for being lazy, but i think the headache was my body’s way of saying “enough, you need to rest.” I’m feeling much better today. I go to the doctor tomorrow morning to find out the results of my MRI. I have a lot of things going on this week, so I’m glad i took a day to rest. I’m not sure why i feel the need to push myself to the point of exhaustion.
I hope everyone has a great sober day!
Today is Presidents’ Day here and I’m secretly hoping everyone thinks my office is closed for the day…
My kids don’t have school, so I’m also hoping they don’t destroy my house and leave dishes in the sink after spring cleaning the hell out of it this weekend.
Checking in 160 SAF and 145 no cigs. I slept like garbage for the first time in a while, so today’s gonna be a long one. I think a lot of people are off today, so traffic should be light going home. I got some work I gotta get done on the bike this week, before inspection, so I’ll probably try and get started on that after work. Other than that early night✌️
You are you. A lovely loved strong brave incredibly hardworking sober mother, woman and human being who deserves a bloody brake for a change. Love you and love your incredible tenacity and persistence. You humble us all friend. Huge hugs and lots of love
Day 733 alcohol free and the first day of a two week stretch off of work.
I booked a deep tissue massage and will have dinner later with some friends and maybe go bowling.
I’m solidifying dinner plans for my birthday dinner tomorrow. Do I book the place that is old reliable that my Mom would love because she can get her lasagne or do I book the place I really want to go which is louder and trendier but promises to have a great burger? I think I might just be nervous about spending time with my Mom.
Checking in, 1200 days sober. The number made me stop for a moment and be grateful for all the things sobriety provides me as I don’t usually do that. I never want to take sobriety for granted not even for a second. This forum has helped me tremendously not letting me forget about all the work I have to put in and about all the threats that are constantly just one bad decision away from me for the rest of my life. Thank you all for being here and sharing!
Otherwise I have been in a rather bad mood today, feeling numb, so I just worked and baked a lot and am about to have an early night.
