Snow
uk weather sucks big time
1760
Iām waiting for spring here too, wanting to get to work on my balcony, waiting to go out and do some spring rides and hikes. But I guess thereās enough stuff to do inside too. The inside of my place and the inside of my head both can do with some spring cleaning. So letās get a move on. My ReDiscovery is a work of love. Love for myself, for the folks around me and for the whole world. One day at a time. Love.
@JennyH Congrats on making it through your Bday sober! Thatās a big one for you I know. Coming here instead of giving is a big tool. Keep going!
@Steve14 Thatās awful Steve. So sorry. Such a waste and all around so very sad.
@Chevy55 Thanks for being here and sharing friend. Weāre truly in this together.
@MrFantastik A third of year is pretty cool! Congrats friend!
@Chosen2001 Congrats on 10 months Chris!
@MrsOdh Hoping your tea experiment brings the desired benefits Sophia
@SoberWalker A bit jealous of your meeting. Well, I got my writing course for now. Hope it will be nice. Want to tell what your volunteerring for?
@acromouse Happy preparing! Something to look forward too. Whatās your destination?
Thank you, Iām lucky that I have time to do This experiment. And Iām sure the spring will arrive to both of us soon,spring cleaning or not. ![]()
Good morning, checking in on Day 9. Thank you all again, being here with your support made all the difference. Now husband is back at work so feeling like the danger of it being a special occasion has passed. I still have the week off so will be here a lot.
Spring was definitely here in the SE of the UK yesterday, hopefully everyone else in Europe will see it soon. It is rainy here today but I donāt mind after such a beautiful day yesterday. Canāt believe you have snow @MrsOdh I was just thinking a couple of days ago that we didnāt get snow this winter here.
Wow, I am exhausted just reading that! I had forgotten how tiring (but fun) the younger years can be. I do miss it. My son (now 14) had severe speech problems and now speaks beautifully. In fact, when he started to talk people used to say how posh he sounded because of all the intervention
Hope the appointment goes well.
I have a 14 y/o too. Heās high functioning autistic, but didnāt say a word before he was 4.
He was completely silent.
Doctor said not to worry, that heāll talk eventually. And he did. In both Swedish and English.
His brother now 12 couldnāt say R (which is common here since Swedish have a special rolling R sound like in Spanish)
Until he was like 8. Nowdays he mix between Swedish, English and Spanish sometimes in the same sentence. ![]()
Checking in for Day 5
Still feeling somewhat foggy and tired. Thankful that it is the school holidays so have been having some relaxing days at home with the kids, watching movies and playing board games.
Did have some thoughts earlier about drinking, but have pulled myself out of that. But have turned to ice cream and other junk instead for now, but do not want that becoming a bad habit either. One step at a time.
Hope everyone is doing ok! ![]()
Arnhem. Itās only a 2h train ride. We looooooove the Zoo there and the Open Air Museum. And both work even with a bad weather.
Iām sorry for your loss. Sending bright light and positive vibes your way.
Oh Steve. I am so sorry for this loss. Be kind to yourself in your time of grief. Sending warmth, love and hugs to you

Day 14 ![]()
Not even having cravings but mentally my mind is trying to convince me ⦠Silly mind! Doesnāt know I am learning to shut that voice down as soon as it starts!
Hey all, checking in on day 1388. I hope everybody has a good one!
The area is very nice. Beautiful nature. Supossed to get rather warm towards the end of the week too.
We used to live closer to the Netherlands, and the bike nerds we are we would use many opportunities to visit our neighbours and shamelessly enjoy their infrastructure ![]()
Especially the area between Arnhem and Apeldoorn is such a treat ![]()
Thank you Mno. I am grateful. Keeping at it ODAAT!![]()
Yeah, I love it too. Wandering around there you wouldnāt know youāre in one of the most densely populated countries in the world. This pic is from a biking trip there last year.
Tell that voice it can FRO! Hang in there, sending strength
And hugs ![]()
