Welcome back! Good to see you
Thank you! Iām determined to make a permanent go of it this time!

My holidays are here. Had to work so hard this weekend that itās hard to be happy now. But it will come. Had a long night, lots of dreams, lively ones but not scary. Food for thought. For which I have plenty of time as I have three weeks off now. Sober and clean.
Letās have as good a day and week as we all can friends. Clean and sober to begin with or nothing will come of it. Iām glad and grateful to be here with you all. Together we can do this. One day at a time. Love from Utrecht trainstation that I wonāt see for a bit.
@HakeemOsman Welcome back Hakeem and congrats on a week!
Hey welcome back. Letās go.
- Nightmares all night, meaning Iām tired and tender and floppy boned today Iām really glad that kind of terror dreaming doesnāt happen too often these days, I used to get sleep paralysis and that was definitely not fun. Getting in the gym today again finally and for that Iām happy.
Big hugs friend. Hereās hoping for a good bright day with a good workout and happy feelings.
Thanks Menno. Yup. We do the work. Hugs back

Gym in the morning for myself. Then grocery shopping for the week.
Pick up kids from school then gym for the eldest.
One more day off tomorrow before Iām back to work. Probably a bit of the same old routine again tomorrow.
@zzz Looks like a lot of people had a lot of fun
@Tragicfarinelli This does not happen too often to me, but I really feel with you on the aftermath of a dreadful night. Hope the workout will help you connect with your body and shed the nightmares.
@Mno Enjoy your vacation!!! Three weeks is great. Any plans already?
@HakeemOsman Good to see you back. Congrats on a great start
@Just_Laura Just out of my personal curiosity. When you talk about biggest sizes of bulk buying how much is that? Like for toilet paper or whatever you buy? Iām curious because I heard that you can buy far bigger amounts of things in the US than for example here in Europe.
@Jules000 I can feel your excitement coming through your words right now Wishing you a smooth move and great beginnings in your new place.
@ASP Welcome to the community This really is a great place. Stick around, read and share. Stay connected, you donāt have to do this alone
@Butterflymoonwoman Hoping you are waking up refreshed today
@Laner Thanks for sharing how someone around you also opened up about their troubles with addiction. I usually did not talk much about my problems, but I learned that when I open up about my problems others might feel encouraged to share theirs - maybe even for the first time - as they might feel safe to do so.

New monday, new week! The temperature went down a bit. Iām glad about that. My daughter will be at her grandmaās after school.
I want to finish up loose ends on the game today, all kinds of todos on my list, some yoga in the afternoon and an online meeting in the evening.
Letās keep our minds and hearts open friends

948 days no cocaine.
463 days no vape.
7 days no binge-eating.
I didnāt go to the gym. I was feeling too much shame, and the tracker kept saying it was busy. Maybe today if Iāve got the energy after therapy, if not, then tomorrow.
I had cravings yesterday for crisps, I ate a lot of fruit. I struggled to fall asleep and I ended up going back to the shop for even more fruit.
I have therapy today after a 2 week break. First I need to shower.

Day 241 AF
I have officially had a solid month of great sleep. No blips or off nights. Itās been a focus and work to stay on track, schedule and focused. Almost 8 months in and I believe I have a solid handle on my rest and sleeping patterns.
Yesterday was a client mow then home to begin digging through rock to get a white pine in ground. I will finish today in the rain to get him in his new home.
I did take some time to chill out a bit in a lounge chair right in my front yard. How could I not when the day was so peaceful and sereneā¦
Peace
thank you my friend!! your support means a lot, i couldnāt do this without kind people like you :] best wishes and i hope youāre well ! <3
Hey all, checking in on day 1541. I hope everybody has a good one!
