Awesome!! Thanks
So good to see you checking in friend. You are doing great with 3 days sobriety. You are in school and taking care of your autistic son. I know it sucks seeing people our age doing what society expects of us at a certain age but remember that you are doing you and you are doing it well.
Keep up the great work friend. Hope you are able to practice self care and get some âMEâ time
Probably weird stuff for you!
⢠âSalmorejoâ (dish from the south of Spain made of tomatoes, bread, olive oil, garlic and a bit of vinegar, all mixed) Usually itâs served with small pieces of ham and egg.
⢠âTrampĂłâ - another Spanish dish, typical from Mallorca (salad of tomatoes, onions, green peppers and I add chick peas, with olive oil, vinegar, salt & pepper)
⢠Chicken with red peppers, onion, mushrooms and cream, served with rice
⢠Chickpeas with spinach and onions and some Serrano ham, potatoes, with some cream and curry and other oriental spices!
All done for the week!
WOW girl â that is some good wholesome cooking⌠sounds great! Not weird at all. I would eat most of it (am vegan so may do some changes lol but am loving the base and the flavors )
Well, there are some parts in there that are not too vegan⌠Iâm not vegan nor vegetarian as you can tell!
Welcome back and congrats on 3 days
Checking in day 231 AF
Day 1038 AF
Good afternoon, everyone.
Had a good time at the park yesterday. Caught up with some old friends and their families. They were drinking, but it didnât bother me. Didnât even crave it. I was busy dealing with my kids at the playground. I ran into one of my cousins, and he offered me a beer. Told him I was still sober, almost 3 years. He was like, âOh yeah, uh, I forgot.â Idk how many times I gotta tell dude Iâve been sober, lol. He started talking about how I already did my sobriety time, and 3 years was a long time. 1 or 2 beers wonât hurt . Reminded me of an episode from Loudermilk. When his dad talks about weâre not alcoholics because of our sobriety time . Anyway, I told him it wasnât for me, and thatâs that. It was a chill day overall.
Back to the grind today. Took the kiddos to school and staying busy with work.
I hope everyoneâs doing well. Take care. ODAAT
@JazzyS great you feel less the pain in your head!!!
Day 27 here. I feel a little bit nervous. I want to reach 30 days. I donât want to mess up again. I am afraid of self sabotage. But I will fight
Nada mejor que un buen salmorejo casero en veranoâŚ
@Jesile quĂŠ bien!! Hablas espaĂąol!!! Tienes toda la razĂłn el salmorejo en verano es de lo mejor y encima si es casero
Aw, thank you so much! Its great to chat with you again!
Day 918
Hi TS fam! Today has been pretty good actually! Its a scorcher outside so Ive been inside for most of the day. Folded up 3 loads of laundry, did dishes, swept, vacummed and took out the trash. Feels good to have a clean home. Will be heading out with my wagon to go grocery shopping in about an hour. I also practiced my speech for the pediatric cancer fundraiser in Sept. I think its going well.
Today i realized how ânormalâ my life is haha For decades i was very much a child of chaos and my life was sooo unmanageable. I was always on edge and constantly on a mission to get my next fix. Now⌠i have such a ânormalâ life. It just blew me away to think of the differences btwn my life then and now! Im grateful that I feel comfortable living the way I do now. In early recovery it felt very unusual and uncomfortable to live a ânormalâ life. Sure its boring at times but ive really become to like the quiet and stillness of those boring times. What a gift!
Hope everyone is doing well this fine monday! Have a great day!
Say youâre sick. Youâre not feeling well.
I have accomplished 7 days sober!
Congratulations, the worst is behind you!
Congrats on your 1 week!
Checking in on Monday evening. Hope everyone is having a good start to the week
