Checking in daily to maintain focus #68

So sorry to read this, Dana… Biggest mistake ever! (We’ve all done, let’s be honest)
I sincerely hope that it will not be that bad, try not to go crazy until you have professional feedback. Sending you positive vibes! :hugs:

By the way: 900 days, way to go!! :partying_face::partying_face::partying_face:

Day 10. Checking in. What have people done to curb sugar cravings. Idk if it’s just me but instead of drinking I have been binge eating sweets.

Excited for another sober weekend. What’s everyone got planned?

Checking in on day 9
My day at work wasn’t the best. It’s just been chaotic, extremely busy, phones ringing, people walking in and out, unexpected problems that need to be solved, mails that multiply like rabbits, bla bla…
Tomorrow I have to get up at 5:15 am, way too early!! :confounded::scream:
I didn’t go for a walk, I left the office 2 hours late, and finally didn’t make it.
Today it hasn’t been a good day, but at least I stayed sober! :muscle:t2::footprints:

Day 29 and my God are the craving shitty today.
My husband is in the military and I am currently living with my inlaws as my lease ran out. My husband has been deployed 6 months, with no “coming home” date planned.
I would classify myself as an introvert and am very much struggling to maintain my own well being in this new living situation. They are very social people and always have something going on.
I just picked up a part time job, which should help to get me out of the house more, but i also hope not to be here very long. Unfortunatly I have a very spoiled and very loved german shepherd that most rental companies consider a restricted breed. My social clock is empty and i just want a couple glasses of wine and a good sleep.
But. Tomorrow is 30 days and i cant jeapordize that. One hour at a time.

The borrowed store manager turned on the ice machine and told the new manager (today is her first solo shift) “it’s fine”

But it is absolutely NOT fine!

There is still mold
AND
there is still chemical cleaning solution in it!!

I can’t wait to not be associated with that location :sob:

2nd check in today. Feeling pretty good, exercising well & starting to build something good. I’m enjoying reading people’s check ins. It’s comforting to know I’m not alone, I know there’s plenty of people like me out there but you just don’t see them day to day.
Here I can see you and know I’m not the only one.

End of day 661

It’s 6 pm and I’m going to try to nap so I can get up early. It’s hot and I’ve been cranky, but all is well that ends well, and I am laying my head down sober so I’m happy with that.

Congratulations beautiful… Angel number 900 carries a powerful message of spiritual completion, new beginnings, and purposeful living . This number sequence often appears as a sign that you are reaching the end of a significant phase in your life and that new opportunities aligned with your higher purpose are on the horizon.

I relapsed and had to start my time over again. I always slip up in the first few days I can’t stand it

Congratulations Dana! It’s a wonderful number. :blush:

I am hoping the lesion is benign, and I’m holding you up in prayer and meditation tonight. Please take care of yourself and I hope we can help support you through this wait for more information. :people_hugging:

Glad you came right back to us! Instead of saying that you always relapse early on, maybe you could say you used to relapse early on. This time could be different. You can stay sober. You never have to have another Day 1. We’re here my friend. Do you have a plan? It helps a lot early on. :people_hugging:
