Checking in day 124 AF. I had another first this evening i went to a family gathering where everybody was drinking but i took my own soft drinks and came home when i wanted. I have had a really lovely time.
I felt quite apprehensive about going as i didnt want the ā€œwhy are you not drinkingā€ comments but everyone was really supportive :blush::heart:. Happy Sober Saturday.

1:30am and canā€™t sleep.
Have energy so made some chamomile tea :coffee:


Rememberimg the things that got me through before and I had forgotten about.

I love the taste of the chamomile :yellow_heart:. A bit of valerian to boost itā€™s sleeping properties.

Can not wait to be in the garden in summer with my herbal teas and smoothies. Cats happy to be out and bbqing dinner. And meditating and just being at peace :v:Calm mind, calm soul, calm environment. Canā€™t wait!

I am calm, relaxed, and enjoying another stormy night. Did a moderate to slight amount of things on my list. Didnā€™t do quite a bit. Easy. :grinning:
Iā€™m beginning to think the sun is permanently gone. Here, that would be a good good thing! Probably not, though, so Iā€™m lining up some mountain trips this summer.

Sleep well

:heart:

I find with the herbal teas, if your flustered or running around seriously stressed already then it donā€™t do much. But if your kind of calm or even a bit stressed or just feeling a bit overwhelmed it does wonders.
For me it seems to work like this.
Usually for sleep I would drink it from around 6pm and let it steep for minimum of 4 hours.
I need to start doing that again.
And a cup in the morning if the days feels heavy helps too.

Run out of likes so here for you :heart:
