Today felt like a loooong day but a decent day at least. I had an amazing chest, tricep, cardio workout in the morning. Came home to clean and have a nap. Hubby left for work at 430am and just got home at 720pm. So we havent eaten supper yet and im suuuper hungry. Im in the middle of putting our son to bed tho, so ill start making supper once hes asleep. I had 1 little craving to use my DOC earlier in the day. Not sure what brought it on. Honestly, i dont even think there needs to be a reason anymore for why they occur. But i love being clean and sober so the thoufhts dont really faze me anymore. Thats about it for me. Enjoy the rest of ue day everyone :butterfly:

Today was a perfect little getaway from my, becoming monotonous, life :relieved: I love visiting this cute little town. So much to do! I’m just happy I woke up and got moving right away so we could have so much time there. And that I’m tired now, bc I have to work at 7:30 tomorrow :sleepy: Unusually early shift for me, but it’s actually a memorial for my landlord’s wife. She died 10 years ago and he asked me if I would work it. I thought that was nice of him. She was a good woman. So…I’d better get to bed.

Thank you for asking @JazzyS but there is nothing a doctor can do to help.
My Eustachian tube in both ears isn’t working properly for my entire life. That gave multiple problems during my life. One of them is fluid behind the eardrums when I have a cold and that gives the hear loss. Sometimes that last for multiple months. There is nothing you can do about that then keeping your nose clear with nosespray :hugs:

*Day 2101 :walking_woman:
Quick check in.
Had a good day yesterday at work. Busy, but got everything done I had on my list.
My kids where home and we ate and chat a bit. I went to bed early because I was tired.
Today? Crossfit training, work, visiting a friend in the hospital, going by train to Rotterdam for a meet and greet with @acromouse and @Mno :sunglasses:
So a busy day ahead!

@KarenKW I’m sorry you aren’t feeling well. Peri menopause can give a lot of symptoms that are difficult to deal with. For me I found the peri part more difficult then the menopause itself.
There are herbs that can lighten up the symptoms, have you checked them out? I work in a pharmacy store. Maybe you can ask for a supplement? Things that can help are: sage, black cohosh, red clover, etc.
And here’s a big hug! :people_hugging:

Have a good day ore night all :raising_hand_woman:

I love being clean and sober also

I had a craving today.too but the thought of hurting myself and loved ones was enough to.dismiss it pretty quick

Just like @ashley_luvs_starz said just 2 hours ago( which made it very clear to me) you are worth it

Stay strong friend :slight_smile:

@Scorpn So good to read your check in. Happy for you. Hoping you got some rest in too.
@Lainenicole96 Congrats on going sober & clean Laine! I had to learn it’s all or nothing after i quit weed and alcohol became a real problem for me.
@Danwood85 Sounds like life to me Daniel. Good days and less good ones. Using won’t help with anything. Glad for you and keep going.
@Tragicfarinelli That’s amazing friend. I should try this breathing stuff sometime maybe.
@Lighter Here’s hoping you’re finding some rest tonight Marie :sheep: :ram: :sheep: :ram: :sheep: :ram:

yes! My drinking got out of hand once I couldn’t smoke anymore. I totally agree it’s all or nothing. Thank you šŸ«¶šŸ» and congrats on your 1839 days! That’s amazing. And it’s beautiful where you are, much more beautiful with a clean and sober mind to truly appreciate it and be still.

All or nothing is my personality on drugs and alcohol also
I guess i look for something for my dopamine the second i have a new good streak with quitting something

Quit alcohol
Jumped to weed
Quit weed
Jumped to nic
Quit nic

I recently quit weed and now drink s lot of coffee i guess but no caffiene pills. I tried those a bit back and i hated them
Took way too long to.kick in for too much power and super dangorus
Weeds doc because its quick and i can keep.doing doing it all day and get nothing but exhaustion.and a headache

I still hate weed though
My environment changed and i.need to adapt
Just the way it is
