I had an above average sleep last night which means im not feeling as drained this morning thankfully. Ate breakfast, got my coffee, put my son on the school bus, and now im getting ready for the gym. Its been a loooong while since i hit the gym but im pushing myself today to get there today. Then i have 2 errands to run and then will come home to rest because i have another awake overnight shift to do tonight. Hopefully this will be the last one for awhile 
Ya today should be a good day! Hope everyone enjoys their day also!

Day 249. Still working on it. Celebrated 8 months a few day ago. Things are kind of difficult head space wise right now. Itāll pass. It always does. I just wish that the tough days would be less often. Maybe someday.
One day at a time.
Thanks for letting me share.

Day 2303.
Passed 2300 days apparently, not that Iām super concerned with my numbers. Figured Iād do a quick check in to let the people who have tagged me know that Iām still out there maintaining sobriety at all costs.
Life has dealt me some blows, but nothing I canāt manage (with real life support). I am going through some pretty big periods of forced change and itās stressful. I was given confirmation that I was not hired for a new role at my current organization, nor was I ever actually considered (longer story here thatās not relevant). Currently actively hunting but not a ton of openings in my desired field/pay range. In addition I am also in the process of moving closer to my partner and biggest supporter 
. This is challenging for a variety of reasons.
As a result I have had to make decisions about what things/people I have capacity for and I have not had the time nor energy to devote here. I read, throw out some hearts, and then head on my merry way. Thankfully I have cultivated an in person support network that is there when I want.
Iām aware things will work out. They always do, but until they do I probably wonāt be around much. There isnāt much to be learned by struggling, but thereās much to be gained by overcoming the struggles. Once Iām there im sure Iāll have some insight as to what worked for me to get through it.

Great news from the hospital! Those rascals! I remember those days with my black tomcat BĆŗho. I loved him so much though! How can you not. But thatās a big reason why Iām considering adopting an adult/older cat or two. I also hate seeing them at the shelter

Evening check in. My weekendās here, or almost a mini vacation as Iām off till Tuesday 
. Itās been an intense couple of weeks at work. I feel I handled stuff pretty damned well if I may say so myself. Been crying on the train home listening to music. Just some songs. Iām OK. But itās quite something, this job I do. Thanks for being here friends. Weāre in this together. Love. The pic is the view coming into work close to dawn.

Checking in day 536! Havenāt checked in for a bit, so wanted to stop by and say hey. Been pretty busy but with lots of positives. Starting a group personal training program and my health is feeling better than it has in a long time. Work is chugging along, relationship is going well, and been investing time in friendships. I owe it all to sobriety.
Hope everyone has a terrific sober Thursday

Lunch break check in. Day 34. I think my last reset was around this amount of time too, so Iām happy Iām building up a new longest streak.
I just want to repeat myself, and give a pat on the back to all of the parents on here who pushed through the sleep deprived tough days. Itās an incredible, tough journey.
Life has no easy button, eh? ā¦we are all grinding it out one day at a time.

Thank you
It was ok. I spent time with them, but when the time came for during around drinking, i went to my old hobby of sewing! They popped their head in every now and then and that worked out perfectly for me.

Just a quick check-in, because Iām really tired. Just finished work for today and plan to get up early in the morning to continue. I really miss a day off. I can probably have one in the middle of next week, so only a few days left. Tomorrow my buddy from Budapest will come to visit and will stay here for a few days. He will bring along his cat too. I know I will really miss my daily routine, but even so Iām looking forward to have them here.

Day 4 of 14 off and it is official, I over scheduled myself. Iāve been reading on the couch and chatting on here which saved my mood after my busy social days the last few days. Now to catch up on push-ups. Stay sober folks.
