I’m losing sleep over work related stuff. That never happened before, even when I hated my job. I guess when I hated my job, I really didn’t care about it, and at night I drank and smoked myself in a coma. And in the morning I just got up and dragged myself into another day of hating it and drinking and smoking trying to forget about it all. Which never worked.
Now I don’t do that anymore -drinking and smoking that is, as well as hating my job- I need to deal with stuff in an adult and healthy way. And most of the time I do. In this case I find it really hard. I’m still good at avoiding and procrastinating. Which makes me feel really bad about myself. But I will deal with it. And move on. By feeling and acknowledging my feelings, and talking to others about it. And taking appropriate action. One day at a time. Have as good a day as you can friends. Sober and clean. Love.

Much better today. It’s honestly the fever that keeps you down. Just sucks overall. Now I’m just dealing with a cough that dries out by nighttime so it’s a constant, unsatisfying tickle. I really hope this is it and it’s over. I need to start getting things ready for my daughter’s birthday party. Feels like it comes faster every year. Well, I gotta rest up for work tomorrow. Stay true to yourself 
and keep coming back

Day 12.
Really unsettled last night. The temptation to go and buy alcohol was overwhelming, but I told my brain to shut up, take my meds and go to bed, lol.
More horrible vivid dreams, but I’m alive, I’m awake and I’m sober.
The temptation is still there, but I will not bow to it. Had you asked me all the way back in October, I’d have said that I used alcohol to cope with all of my sadness and block out any negative thoughts. Now, I realise that I want to drink all the time, even when I’m happy and relaxed, because alcohol is a bastard and ruins everything.
Phew. So glad to say I didn’t relapse

Checking in on the end of Day 1, I can get through this if I really work for it… The temptation had gotten to me after about 10 days clean. Lets stack those days for good this time

@NewBeginning1 Hey Matt. Good thing you’re back! What have you learned from your last round? What are you going to do differently? What’s your plan?
@s_unrelax Have no idea how you can concentrate on code after not sleeping Sarath 
My mind would be useless. Good to see you checking in!
@Lighter Hope sleep finds you soon Marie 
@Lile01 Great job on pushing through the cravings Indi 
That voice of addiction is such a mean bastard. Keep at it and come and vent here when the urges get strong. Always helps me.
@Just_Laura Get well soon. My daughter has been having this cough for two weeks now. It drives us all crazy.
@Mno Sorry to hear your work gives you trouble. I hope you’ve got people you can share the details and the feelings with. Nothing helps as good as a good vent.
@Butterflymoonwoman Thanks for sharing this beautiful day and all the wonderful experiences with us Dana. Made my heart warm and put a smile on my grumpy morning face 
You and your child deserve so much happiness.
Thanks for sharing. I’m trying to learn this too. Long learning curve 
@CleanHeart Looks like your first month is just around the corner. You’re doing great 
@GOKU2019 I hope the caffeine withdrawal madness will pass soon. Sending you strength and patience

Goals for today: keeping food journal, mindful eating, taking breaks to check in with me, learning to be in my body, surrendering to the present moment.
Spring equinox is here in my hemisphere and I’m going to celebrate today. I want to start cleaning balconies, preparing pots for new plants, maybe sowing some seeds. Reflecting on the past winter, where I am now, what I want to leave behind and how I want to move forward. Yoga as usual and a relaxing day overall.
Have a peaceful day, looking at the world in kindness, and staying in freedom friends

Another good day at work. In between the seriousness there really is a lot of laughs and a lot fun every shift with the work crew. I remember working on crews that I didn’t enjoy working with and everyday was a struggle. So thankful to have ended up where i am at the moment.
Aside from work there wasn’t much else today. Traffic was shit, took me over an hour to get home, but it was sunny and I could listen to podcasts so it was time well spent

Day 51
Some more free time until Sunday, then the second education study starts. I hope it will be manageable. Last one was, anyway, easy.
Feeling relaxed, although I had some trouble with the cellar and the washing machines and created protection against… Bastards lol.
Sauna was joyful. I realy get used to it and kind of a pro. Read a bit about the series, pausing, hydration and so on. Realy enjoy the ice cold diving pool there. Sun was shining and i was hanging out on a roof terrace in between. Got a bit tanned. I started to take Betacarotin as I was so pale from winter…
Had a dream of a firmer co worker tonight, bullying me. Hmz. Fucker.
Take care

Let‘s not be too eager with the winter jackets. Temperatures still like to go back to slightly above freezing. But the sun is out and there is light in my face. Thank you friend. How is the season of the egg-shaped-ball-sport going?
