Checking in! 
I didnāt check in yesterday, but I didnāt really have much to tellā¦ just work! Today itās more or less the same! Work, and you can tell high season is creeping up on us! Itās getting busy! Today I had a slight argument with my boss, heās crap at communicating things, and when he forgets to tell us something he tries to put the blame on us! Very annoying, but Iām
not someone that will keep her mouth shut! 
Other than that, not much to tell!
Kitties are doing well, one keeps chewing on my plants 
, and the other one is still struggling at times with his litter box! But hey, canāt complain, my choice! They also give me good company! 
Edit: I started listing to this audio book;
Itās read by the author, and she has a pleasant voice (important for me when it comes to audio books) and I like how she approaches the subject. I havenāt finished it yet though!

Checking in day 254 AF I am currently on holiday in Greece with my Husband and inlaws. I was apprehensive at first due to this being my first time abroad since becoming sober but so far Iām 3 days in and having a fab time drinking mocktails and AF beer. I thought about how different i would have been if Iād have drank and how much better my life is now! š©· xx

Check your number girl 500+ days is fabulous. Sorry that the fomo is getting to youā¦ remember that in reality you are not missing anything at all (our minds really romanticize the fun times in addition).
Sending you strength and hugs ā¦you are doing great my friend

You arenāt alone. Breakups are super hard and can drudge up emotions. I would cry at everything as with 13 years all things had some memory associated with them. I had to start making new memories and that helped. It does get easier. Try to get out and do some activities to keep yourself busy and your mind occupied. Sending you love and hugs

Day 941
Today went really well. Even though my morning started out rough, i was able to turn it around. I love that i can restart my day at any point. The gym was really good!! I worked out hard and really pushed myself. Its truly my therapy 
I came home and made the caramel buttercream i needed for the macarons. Then did some tidying up. Tried to have a nap but i was overly caffeinated lol. Got my son from the bus and now we are relaxing. Im currently trying to avoid the left over pizza from last night bcuz i want to save my calories for supper with hubby. Hes still at work and so it will be awhile before we eat. Just trying to prevent a binge here. I ate 1 med slice to tie me over until supper. But boy do i want more. I have to stay focused on my goals. Hope u all are having a fab night!

@HolySquid YEAH triple 5ās ā that is awesome friend! Glad you got in your advent calendar in time (hate when things sell out and we miss out). Excited for the upcoming Halloween festivities
@Seizetheday OOH Greece sounds awesome - hope you have a wonderful time on your vacation!
@Noshame Those are amazing timers friend. Hold onto the feeling of the terrible taste ā that i what we need to remember when the cravings hit. Lately I really have wanted to smoke so badly and am just reminding myself of the nasty taste, smell and the uck feeling my lungs would feel afterwards. Keep going strong
@Jamoji Welcome to the community friend. This is a great place to be - hope to see you around!
I love this too and am working on remembering that on when the days start on a off beat. We have that control and its awesome to take care of ourselves in a sober mindset.
@Courtni That 26 day streak is amazing my friend. Remember we are right here with you so lean on us during your vacation if urges or triggers occur. Sober travelling is amazingā¦ hope you have a wonderful time and share some pics on the Travelling Sober thread when you get a chance.
Checking in on Wednesday evening
630 days free of alcohol and weed
1045 days free of cigarettes
My new mouth splint is sturdy and will take some time to get used to. The metal tends to scrape the inside of my mouth.
Not doing so well but managed to get some movement activity in today. Super tired now so gonna call it an early night.
Wishing you all a wonderful addiction free day / evening - sending you all so much love

Thabk you so much Jazzy. I really appreciate it. I am always on the go, projects happening all over but creatively I dont do much for myself. I sat today and did it! I have always wanted to write a book, so one must start and write and write. So lovely that your sister was there to help out and you got out for a swim 
We need to invent you a moving pool you can just take with you wherever you go!! Xo dear friend 
Checking in
I dont feel like checking in lately. Its a strange feeling but I wanted to say it outloud. Or in text. Just perhaps tired, and then things fall by the wayside so I am not going to allow this to fall by the wayside. This community and being here is very important to me, and yes I am tired and life is happebing but I need to be here! So HELLO! Checking in, tired but alive abd super grateful.
Sent out some resumes today to educator positions and have an interview next week for a sexual violence/human traffickinf wducator/counsellor pisition. It is funny how close to home this position would be, in that I was attempting to BRANCH out from my discipline and I may be about to step back inā¦we shall see. Im open to the universe right now
Xo everyone xo.
