Checking in daily to maintain focus #68

Checking in day 393 AF
Slowly but surely getting the packing done. I’ll be glad when it’s all over. Thought I’d found a solution for help, my ex husband. That’s not going to work out. He’s got some health issues so that’s not going to work. It’ll all work out it always does. I’ve move up and down the west coast twice and this time it’s only 20 miles away.

No urges or desire to drink. While the idea of a drink sounds good, the aftermath and losing my sober time is at this time enough to stop me from drinking.

My back is actually holding up well to despite the physical activity.

Wishing everyone a peaceful and sound sleep.

Back to work I go. My sleep was not very restful. Loads of dreams. Drinking was involved. Or drinks at least. Hm. Feeling a bit unsettled now. It’ll get better. I’m sober and clean and nothing’s going to change that. Good days and less good ones. One day at a time. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Clean and sober. Love from my urban hike yesterday (I felt more like walking @acromouse).

Day 2126 :walking_woman:
It was a good party yesterday @jazzy, @Butterflymoonwoman and @acromouse :sunglasses:
But it was a lot of work, because I cooked all from cratch beforehand too. But it tasted good and my exploded kitchen looks more normal again :blush: And most important: everybody had a good time, including myself.


Picture from some flowers I saw during a walk a few days ago. One of them is Camomile, the flower of balance. I can use some balance :sunglasses:
Today? Work.
Weekend was short, too short. Just one day and that was the party. But tomorrow I can rest a bit.
Have a good day ore night all :raising_hand_woman:

@Dan.h84 Congrats on double digits! Great work :muscle:
@Lefty624 Nice to hear your pool is finally up for the summer :ocean:
@SoberWalker I’m curious, so if you have the energy left to answer: What did you cook for your guests?
@Mno A walk is a good choice too. Nice to live in walkable cities :smile: Hope your mood settles soon.
@DanaM56 How many days do you have left for the move?
@Butterflymoonwoman I do sometimes smell stuff that reminds me of something, even if I can not see it anywhere around me. I don’t know if this is just my mind, or maybe something similar and my mind puts it together like that? :thinking: But smells are somehow wired strongly with memories and emotions.
@KarenKW Good to see you sharing with us. Sending you a few rays of sunshine :sun_with_face:
@Refreshedperspective Wishing you luck on finding a work plan that will work for you and your current needs :crossed_fingers:
@Vanessa8 Nice to hear you had a sober weekend with a nice sober person around you :smiling_face:

Did my morning run already. @MrMoustache It’s called Run Your Butt Off. There is a link in the article with the whole 12-week trainig plan.

This week my daughter is staying at her dad’s. This means I am having my flat, my time and my life exclusively to myself. Doesn’t happen too often. I am going to enjoy this.

Today back to prototyping, I’m still not finished with movement. I am having some kind of headache and my brain feels a bit like cotton. We’ll see how much thinking will be possible with that head.
I want to prepare for my upcoming vacation in Utrecht in the afternoon, some yoga. In the evening I want to join a gaming group. I don’t know anyone there besides one friend. But I want to meet new people. So I’ll give it a try.

However we might wake up, let’s go for peace, kindness and freedom today, so that we may go to sleep sober :peace_symbol: :people_hugging: :dove:

I’m here, I’m alive I’m sober and I’m happy.
Day 138.

Heavy rain again, that kind of rain where you can’t even step outside without getting soaked, again.

Me and my husbands wedding anniversary today. We’ve decided to try and celebrate tomorrow instead, because we need to go to Gothenburg for my husbands X-ray tomorrow anyway.

Decided to take back my application for the kids short time home. I’ve found myself wishing that I would get accepted back to my old job as a Cleaning lady instead. And the thought of even being at risk of working year around including holidays, Weekends days and nights stresses me out way to much. And I realized that I want a Monday to Friday 8-16 and just go back home calling it a weekend,no holidays was the reason I started to look from other jobs than being a personal assistant from the start.

So I’ll stick with that. No I’m just hoping that I’ll get the cleaning lady job after summer.

That’s all Folks :heavy_heart_exclamation:
Wishing y’all a wonderful day.

Some awesome numbers in today’s check in!

Checking in day 119.

We received a text from the hospital giving us the date for when my wife will be induced into labour. Sunday 4th of August! Super keen to meet my daughter even if all of us are pretty anxious about it.

I’ve got 3 big weeks of work prior to her arrival so for me it’s head down ass up pretty much every day from now.

Have a great week everyone!
