Yesterday I managed to catch-up here, read 2 chapters of the book Iām reading, do some meditations, do my morning routine, go for a haircut, and go for a walk around the first lake, resting halfway for 5mins. Then I listened to a podcast and went to sleep.
Today Iām hoping to have a similar day. I also need to deal with the mould in the bathroom. Iāve got the mould remover and prevention kit, so Iām good to go.

*Day 2171 
Mental all good but feeling a bit sick and got an injury at my feet. Cannot walk painfree and do not know what caused it.
Tomorrow I go away for a shopping and museum weekend with a friend. A lot of walking involved. So I hope it will be a bit better then.
Fingers crossed 
BBQ yesterday evening was fun but I left early because I felt sick.
Today? Work and that means walk all day too 
For today I share no photo but this āgifā I found and I liked it so much so I share it here as well.
I think it suits here because we all celebrate eachothers milestones here and support eachother. We are all doing it together!
So letās shine together today!
We deserve it! Yes you too!

Good morning, you lovely sober people!
Yesterday was the most amazing day. I decided to splurge some cash and take the kids to Alton Towers a theme park in UK. Theyāve never been before, Iāve never fancied it hungover so I suppose Iāve put it off. We all had the most amazing time and laughed and giggled all day. Today my body aches a bit from the rides and walking 30,000 steps yesterday BUT Iām so happy, proud of myself and in a good place.
10 days today!!! Wahoo!!!
It will be a quiet day today, getting on with housework and recharging. Iām so happy to be sober and tonight as the urge creeps in I will reach for this app and a book Iām reading and remember yesterday to get me through it.
Have a lovely day everyone. Sending my happy smiles your way.

Already yesterday was a headache weather day for my daughter and me. I even had to skip co-hosting a meeting due to the headache.
Today is not really better. So I allowed my daughter to stay at home with her school building being hot as an oven.
Iām going to take a bike ride to couples counceling in a few, and then stay in for the rest of the day and engage in a lot of soothing self care. There is the parentsā evening for this school year this evening. I might go there or ask my ex to attend if the headache gets worse.
Whatever the day may bring I will keep my heart and my mind open as good as I can

@MrsOdh fudgcicles! That is an awful system and Iām sorry your son is caught up in the middle. Hope you are able to sort it out. Look forward to seeing the new cut

@Tyland more calls? Oh man does that suckā¦ sorry friend. At least they will be all bs calls that you can ignore or muteā:thinking:ā¦ The change in number also helps tell yourself that you are moving in and not a part of your old eats. Psychological victory

@SoberWalker oh Iām sorry you are feeling sickā¦hope itās just a quick bug and leaves you soon. Oof- foot pain is so hard to deal with as you need to talk and move. I hope you are not in too much pain and are able to figure out how to heal you feet . Loved the gif and this beautiful community

I am gonna enjoy some quiet reading time - birds arenāt even up

Well, I know why the system look the way it does. Itās shaped to give the kids the right to both their biological parents. It fails big when one parent actually donāt want to be a parent. So it would need some remodeling.
Basically itās to stop one parent from disappearing, running away or withhold contact.
Anyway, I spoke to his teacher today. She said heās not the only one in that situation in year 8, and that we will definitely find a solution.
So I really hope they do.
Good thing with living in a small village where everyone knows you is that everyone is aware of the situation. And that theyāve tried to contact him for the past 8 years too, without success. So they know I aināt making things up.

Iām working on a new habit - start day with short meditation and then guided breathing exercise. Itās great - I visualize a warm healthy energy coming from Jesus while breathing in, and then anything bad my body and mind need to get rid off while breathing out. Realized I love the basic concept of having a plan and finishing my goals. Forgot to use a new tool, which I find very powerful in risky situations - imagine myself next to me when I was around 7 years old and smiles at me and hugs me with love saying āwhy would you? You deserve love and good things in your lifeā

Second check in for today.
School solved the problem with the trip.
They re-did the policy because there was a few more students with the same issue.
For this yearās trip (theyāre going to be away for 24 hours only) itās enough with one parents signature. And that parent alone will be held responsible for anything that might break or if their kids donāt follow the rules.
Iām not worried about either because Iāve got a mini Sheldon Cooper. He always follow the rules. 
So glad they managed to do that.
Thatās all Folks

Feeling anxious, and irritable. Lots of catatrophising and getting angry and feeling guilty. For no good external reason. Sometimes I wish I could get a personality transplant. I get so tired of being me.
Today was actually cool as a big typhoon is coming so it was cloudy and rainy all day, but not that humid. Took a break from tidying and watched some Netflix. Just a few days before the kids go back to school.
