Quiet night at work. Got to watch a bit of the league game I wanted to see and also watched a fighter from my gym fight on tv.
Still got 8hrs of work left so plenty of time for it to go bad

Good morning sober fam! Checking in on day 112. Had a blast at the beach yesterday with my family and my brothers family, days like that I wish I could put on repeat. I hope you all have the most amazing day!
@JazzyS thank you doll, I appreciate you, always so so thoughtful. Good luck with your CT today, thinking of you 
@CATMANCAM thank you love . Iām sorry about the emotional rollercoaster the dream about your mother took. I can relate to those feelings when I have a dream about my dad, mostly upset I couldnāt sleep more and have that feeling last longer. Have fun today with the fam 
@acromouse congrats on your 4 months! 
@Twizzlers and we are happy to see you here

@Mno your pic reminds me of an old TV showā¦ āRawhideā. Glad you and your friend got to experience something similar, first hand 
sort of like being in your own movie.
Also glad some things taken care of and off your mind.
Yay for the creative writing. Nice replacement for the old bar of long ago.
@SadMemeQueen so nice to see you. You are cared for and loved here. Hugs for your hurts and your unknowns. Hoping better days soon.
@Twizzlers Good way to get half the day done. Lots of people have said theyāve just tried to sleep through the beginning. Super proud of you for your new beginnings. Proud of you. And grateful you are here.

Day 74 AF
Day 192 doc free
Thankful the end of the week has come. Thankful although I had a lot of triggers and felt like drinking which would lead to using I didnāt. Using my tools instead. (Calling Sponsor, praying, journaling, meditatinh, calling recovery friends, reading on here)
Again surrendering and accepting living life on lifeās terms. Went to.my home group yesterday. Signed up to chair on May 2nd. A part of service. I am amazed by a lot of the hound women and men in my area you are in the program. I know if I choose that route years ago my life would be different, but again not looking at the past just a thought. Anyway I am thankful I am in recovery now. Not dead, or in jail and am being restored to Sanity for which I am truly grateful and excited about the beautiful life that awaits me and my children as I conyon this journeyšš½
Going to take it easy today. Have a few telephone appointments and will be doing Step work.
We are supposed to have a snow storm this afternoon as well but like @Frank68 mentioned itās all balancing out as we havenāt had much of a winter.
Strong and Serene day my friends. 
Happy 24

Day 77AF
I was beginning to wonder why my body battery (a tracker on my watch) never seemed capable of getting past 75% upon waking in morning.
Well last nights sleep, which I didnāt think was all that fantastic, good, but I didnāt think great, racked up an 85/100 in sleep quality (which is higher than usual) and 91% body battery.
Thatās about 11% higher than i typically have seen.
One night does not mean anything really, but it gives me hope that my healthy eating, living and sobriety is all starting to work in unison and show in my stats.
Wish you all a healthy and a happy day TS peeps. Be well!

52 days free from alcohol
Yesterday I reflected 2 things.
-
I am stronger then I think.
If somebody would have told me last summer that 1. I quit my job 2. My father died 3. I moved and had to move again cause of technical unsolvable defects and be attacked verbally by ugly old menā¦
I would have thought I couldnt stand it.
But I can. Yes, I can! -
I am freeā¦
from ugly feelings in the morning after drinking. And after nonsense sex. This feeling of being so lost and ashamed. Not necessary anymore. This is huge. It was SO terrible.

Day 21- Happy Friday.
Happy to have my weekly milestones on Fridays. I donāt miss drinking. Finally got a good nightās sleep again 
I feel so much better overall when that happens. Iāll store this information for next timeājust wait it out. Early days.
Deer and turkey standing in my flower beds staring at me. Iām not going to feed either one of yāall and the plants donāt taste good because I did that on purpose. They will find a nicer house to raid. 
So happy to be sober today- enjoy your day and Iāll see you later

4 days and 7minsā¦ blah. Today Im exhausted. Yesterdays shift was a dumpster fire in a whole and at the end of my shift a patient decided to try to meet jesus on a different unit, thankfully emt got there before we were in full cpr mode. Something that would normally have me drinking at least a glass of wine by the time I got home to relax. I didnāt want to drink, still in self loathing mode for now so thats helping my sober status. Still having anxiety filled insomnia even though my body and mind are spent. Then waking up to agonizing cramps and unable to get the pain under control for over 2hrsā¦barely slept before the alarms were ringing and SO was grouchy when he left for work. Smhā¦
So question for the ladiesā¦ do you react worse to alcohol near your cycle? I feel like looking back at all of my worst moments of drinking, blacking out, fights, etc. It always lands when hormones are raging. Idk if I necessarily drink more on those events or for some reasons hormones make it way worse. I know I get in a real mood days before so Im sure that just feeds the alochol induced rage. I also feel like Im getting worse with age, maybe menopause is creeping inā¦one could only hope

Day 128, up and at work having a good day. When i was 22 years old i was at a party and that night a boy went missing and has never been found, we were all questioned by police and alot of rumors were started. This morning i woke up to a screen shot of this lady posting about the incident and stating i was there, which she is right i was. But she is saying i started a fight with her son, and that i also raped her daughter. All for social media to see, im Honestly not even bothered by it. It doesnt hurt my feelings, it doesnt make me mad. People can say and think what they want, the only thing i have control over is my actions. Im gonna stay as cool as a cucumber and be happy im here alive and sober today. Much love everyone have a wonderful day
