Day two
Its 33 degrees here in melb today. Its horrible. Melting lol. Give me a cold frozen snowy new England Berkshire winter anyday over this heat 
I woke up at 7am took luca out side to potty. Came back to bed and slept till 2pm became body is just not feeling it today. Sloth mode activated. Reality is setting in on how much time ive wasted the last 6 months and the bad decisions ive made. Almost losing my job from making stupid choices is just stupid. Ive done this so many times i know what to do but my monkey addict brain ugh⊠anyhooâŠ
All is well. Im alive. I have all my limbs. I have my fully functioning body. And i am gratful. My mind can be healed once again the work begins and i will be whole and balanced again soon. OODT.
Luca is dying from the heat today. His fur is ALOT LOL.
Its currently 3.30pm. The plan for the rest of the day is to write a small to-do list and not melt or get heat stroke in the completing of this list lol 
Dishes to be done.
Load or two of laundry
Meditate.
Shower.
Water the new rasberries in my garden ( i do that now lol! )
Go to the supermarket to get some chicken for dinner.
Poor luca is now slopped on my coffee table the closest to the fan as possible lol

After 3 days of frozen greyness, the sun was out today! 
It really gave me a lot of energy. I did some much needed grocery shopping and then I took a nature hike 
It felt like I needed some fresh air. But I felt weirdly sick when I got home. Like, almost car sick feeling, idk what it was. I had to lay down and close my eyes. Then I was fine and got Mexican take out 
Just chilling with my AHS now before bed. Itâs going to be even warmer tomorrow. Yay!

Day 857 AF
Wud up, sober gang.
Had a 3 day weekend due to Presidents Day. It went by fast 
. Filed our taxes Saturday, went to my bro in-lawâs bday party Sunday, and visited my wifeâs parents yesterday. Thereâs not much going on today. Busy day at work and chillin with the kiddos.
Iâve had some trippy dreams on these antidepressants. But theyâve helped me knock out. Iâve been sleeping through the night.
Itâs been raining off and on, and cloudy here. Iâve been lazy with it. I need to get back on my walks.
Gonna crash out. Hopefully, I can go for a walk in the am before these kids wake up.
Aite, Iâm outty. Gnite!
Stay strong.

The first week is the worst. Stuff always gets easier after that.
I listened to a new episode of an eating behaviour related podcast. The lady there said something that stick with me. âWhy would you leave yourselfâ And thatâs what I do when I space out and overeat.
Tough questions. âWhy would I want to leave myself? Where would I want to go? Here and now is where life happens? So where would I want to be else?â 
Today is sauna day
My partner will stay home ill. My child is off to school. I hope we can avoid the viruses floating around here at home.
Me, Iâm going to sweat, soak, hydrate and rest. Thatâs the plan. And as always: Whatever the day may bring ODAAT
Wishing you fine people a day of peace, kindness and freedom

Busy nightshift last night and then didnât get any sleep today with dropping kids to school, sorting some things around home. Did spend the day with my partner so that was good.
Sheâs gone on nightshift now, kids in bed and Iâm just sat here on the couch with the dogs.
Glad that Iâm not drinking anymore as in the past I definitely would have been sitting here a few tall cans in. Worrying and regulating so I didnât get too drunk being in sole charge of the kids. Sometimes Iâd get it right Sometimes i wouldnât.
Im proud to know that now Iâm sober and 100% here for them.

*Day 1981 
Wow! It seems to me like this tread is more active day by day, canât catch up anymore 
Goodmorning ore goodnight all! Itâs always good to read you even when life is tough.
Because we are all doing it: putting the effort in to live sober and clean.
Helping ourselves and others by being here.
We are powerful people! We are changing lives!
That of ourselves and some others around us.
A win/win situation.
I wasnât where I am today if you werenât here
Thank you for that.
Today? Work (had my day off yesterday but called in because of a sick coworker) so a busy week
And tonight a dinner in a restaurant with family. Celebrating my oldest sonâs birthday.
And adding another day to my sober stretch ofcourse, just like you!

My parents are coming. In fact theyâll be here in 15 20 minutes⊠i love them. But they drink heavily. And theyâll be offering me drinks, not knowing that Iâve decided to be sober. They know Iâve struggled with socio to a certain degree, but whether they know how bad itâs been or whether theyâre ignoring it for their own sakes Iâm not sure.
Thankfully Iâm staying at my partners house tonight, so i wonât be having dinner with them. But Iâm fucking anxious about them being here for a few days.
How am i maintaining focus� Keeping this app open. Filling up with water. And trying to keep busy with anything!

I think that you should consider telling them. It will be good. Plus they wonât know unless you tell them
Best wishes

Oh, no thankfully I buy the kids clothes mostly one kid at a time one Saturday (each kid) per season. We go to the salvation army and use the 5 for $5 stickers. We spend as much as needed. Sometimes we even get a full price item 
We have been practicing budgeting and planning for groceries. I have set the weekly budget to $250 but it is a tall order considering there are 7 people here (sometimes 6 but we plan for 7 anyway, just in case)âŠ
On the 9th we went shopping and one teen spent $231
Today (well yesterday now, since itâs late here) we spend $262
Hopefully this round of groceries will last the whole week and some extra days like the last one did 
Have a nice time at the sauna! I hope your partner feels better soon and you and your little one avoid the sickness altogether
