Checking in daily to maintain focus #68

Checking in 95 days sober.
Woke up in a bad mood due to a realistic bad dream. I’m having a hard time “shaking it off.”
The kids and I are headed back home today. I’m sure going to miss being up in the mountains. It’s 116 degrees F at home. Yuck.
I’ll stay sober today, no matter what.

Thank you for your wise and encouraging words. I’m really struggling today, I have terrible cravings and I’m so anxious and sad. Right now I feel I won’t survive from this battle, but some part of me believes that everything’s gonna be allrite in the end. Just gotta grind it through although I feel like I’m in a nightmare. The reality is so scary and unreal because I haven’t face it or myself sober. I feel so worthless.

Congrats on your double digits! Awesome work!

Stay strong for today. Do you have any support groups you could attend? I find they really help. I am off to my morning AA MEETING now.

My sobriety journey is working thanks to my group and folks here.

thank you for the message . Have a good meeting and a great day .

Checking in at Day 44! Feeling good today. 6 days until my 50th and that is a milestone I am super excited about :grin:

Wishing everyone a blessed day.

Just watched “Why Did Tucker Carlaon Quit Drinking?” on Shawn Ryan Clips on YouTube and enjoyed it. Thought others might too.

Hope everyone has a nice day.

So far enjoying the day :sunny: I was pretty tired waking up actually but then got myself going, got dressed, and did up the dishes. Still have to vacuum and organize some things, but im taking it easy today. After lunch, my son and I are going for a wagon walk thru the park behind our building. I didnt get any exercise in this morning so this will be my workout :slight_smile: And ya, thats about it for this clean and sober day! Havs a great one everyone! :butterfly:

One of my kids has been trying to get a job at my job since February when she turned 16. And the whole time my store manager has been brushing her off …
Today is her first day at a different place!
And ironically enough, my store manager asked me today if she still wants to work here. :joy:

No thanks.

What LF route to do is dependent on a lot of factors. They’re all nice. I’d say do the one along the coast, from the south to the north (when the wind is southwest which it mostly is). But at the moment part of that route is under water because of all the rain we had. And other ones are very pretty too. Want to see the hills of Zuid Limburg? The heather fields of Drenthe? The remnants of the Ice Ages, the Veluwe and the Utrechtse Heuvelrug? Maybe a combination of different ones? Here’s the routeplanner of the Dutch bicycle ADAC so to speak. Have a look. https://de.routeplanner.fietsersbond.nl/

Day 18 today for me. I felt really tored today but still went to the library. Before this would havee been a welcome excuse to me to just get into games, mindlessly scrolling and watching youtube the entire day. Im really proud that i instead managed to take a lon nap even though that meant that my chores did not all get done.
