Always helps to keep myself busy
Gonna get ready for bed and go to sleep so i can hopefully get up in the morning to go to muay thai
Hope everyone has a lovely day/night

Why is it sometimes I turn my head to look over my shoulder and my neck just goes āOh fuck no! I donāt twist like that 
ā and then Iām paralyzed for the next week?! At least Iām seeing the chiropractor on Monday.
Itās been raining nonstop for 2 days and will be at least 2 more. April showers brings no one out for dinner 
Boring shift. I hung out with some friends after work. It was nice to be social until I realized it was 12:30am and I was still wearing my uniform 
Late night winding down. Hope to fall asleep faster than last night. I tossed and turned the first couple hours which was annoying, but it didnāt leave me too tired today soā¦eh 
Have a good 24!

@wahtisnormal Great job on keeping the sober streak through a taxing day 
@Just_Laura Sending healing vibes for your poor neck 
@s_unrelax Keeping stacking the days! Good to see you back on track 
@DanaM56 Hope you figure out why the situation with the friend bothers you so much soon. Maybe talk it through with someone?
@Butterflymoonwoman Thanks for sharing. Makes my own difficult thought processes easier to spot.
@CATMANCAM Hope your getting some more sleep and the migraine will pass soon
@Whereswaldo Nice to have you here for the journey 
@tailee17 Good job on tackling that anxiety instead of using to cope 
@Mali The days keep stacking . I hope that job of yours works out.
@JazzyS Love your Fuck It story 
Have fun with Tai Chi. Never got into it. But maybe the time will come.

Today I will honour my satiety and hunger signals.
Yesterdayās clubbing was great fun. The DJ was great, the crowd nice.
Saturday means doing stuff around the flat and taking care of my work tools: IT. The Easter bunny has brought us tickets for Cirque du Soleil for tomorrow and I need to plan the train ride.
The birch pollen is supposed to be really high today, so Iām not really sure about any outdoor activities. On the other hand the weather is going to be spectacular. Maybe just a short walk.
My daughter is still at my motherās and will come back home sometime in the afternoon. From next week on she will be staying from Saturday to Sunday at my husbandās place. I hope this arrangement works out for us.
Definitely a long strong yoga session for today and Iām thinking about chilling with a video game later.
However the day may develop, Iām not going to cope with life through food, eating, or any other misguided behaviour. I canāt control stuff. Might as well let it be.
Have a wonderful day of peace, kindness and freedom friends

74 days AF checking in
Having problems with being agressive and real judging thoughts about my body and how I look. Itās bad. And I got a lot to do with the moving. And all the fragments are making me tired, cause I just moved in November and in the apartment everything wasnāt even unpacked and had itās place. Thatās it for now. I am tired and sad. Sun is shining. Got coffee. Donāt know.

Day 294. Woke up tiredā¦ So hoping for a quiet relaxing day. May head down the beach for a dog walkā¦ Or just chill. Not sure. Need to do some chores like ironingā¦ Saturdays are generally the day to clean the apartment and relax. Felt quite sad last night. Not had much contact from my kids and im at the stage where I think if it doesnāt improve soon I wonāt really want it to either as Iāll be so fed up ans too much time will have passed

Weather looks wonderful today so I better get out there. Will take it easy as I feel yesterdayās bike ride a bit. It was lovely though. Met this small herd of Wisent (European Buffalo) just of the beach, right at the back of Zandvoort F1 racing track. Nice meeting yaāll!
I do feel the lack of social contact a bit. I do have some stuff lined up for next week, but Iād like to see some folks this weekend too. Five years ago I would have gone to the bar and sat and got drunk and felt lonely and miserable there. Thank god I donāt do that no more. Bloody unappealing. Never again. Have as good a day as you all can fiends. Sober and clean. Love.
@Juli1 You do know one thing friend: that drinking wouldnāt help with anything. It wouldnāt make the good day better, or a bad day less bad. Never again. Glad youāre here with us. Big hugs.
@Joyce19 Glad to see you Joyce. Itās one day at a time for all of us. What I did different this time is everything. But that took time. And conscious work. Be absolutely totally sure that drinking helps with nothing. Itās just addiction and thatās all. Work on your Recovery. Thanks for being here with us all. 
@Timetochange Have as good a day as you can friend. And take it one day at a time

Checking in on day 30
Iāve only managed 30 days or more once before. Managed 27/28/29 many times but the magic 30 eluded me. I think because I wasnt ready to stop. Well, Iām glad I have now.
Busy weekend with the kids coming up. Enjoy it everyone!

Good day at work. Did some training in the morning. The scheduled fitness test was postponed till later in the month so my leg should be fine by then, it was fine today and today was pretty active.
We had a prospective recruit join us for the day to give them an insight into the job. Its always good to be able to showcase what we do and he enjoyed himself.
Just spent the evening watching my team draw, its still nice watching it at home with the kids keeping half an eye on it and asking for updates during the game.
Glad Iāll be able to remember it all tomorrow too.
Another day at work tomorrow.

Iām here, Iām alive, Iām sober and Iām happy.
Day 46
Trying to make American pancakes for breakfast. Iām way better at doing thing Swedish ones. The kids look forward to it anyway, so I guess itās the thought that counts here 
Drinking my morning tea,and thatās about it for today.
Hoping that the weather will clear so we can have a bbq this evening.
A friend of ours whoās currently moving to the neighbor village wanted to come over. He was tired from all the fixing with the move, and wanted to relax. He knows Iām not drinking (again) so he asked if I was okey with him bringing a few beers.
I am, beer was never my thing anyway so itās not triggering.
Oddly enough almost nothing seems to be a trigger this time around. I think it might be because Iāve actually had the courage to break up with and exclude all the people that cause me to much stress and creates drama. And that Iāve done so much work with myself so Iām confident in what Iām doing, and where Iām going.
Itās peaceful over here, and way more fun 
Not even my mother is a trigger these days. I just feel sorry for her, and obligated to care for her.
I know sheās sad and lonely.
She doesnāt have to be, but I guess she doesnāt know to be anything else.
Just a little strange that Iāve never done something like this before. Yet Iāve been on and off here for about 4 years.
So grateful that I have all of you guys here that sticks with me, and have done for so long.
Wishing yāall a wonderful day

Feeling more hopeful.
