@Butterflymoonwoman Iām sorry love. That would be frustrating and sad for me too. Your 40th is tomorrow and I do hope you have a wonderful day celebrating your special day! I personally would make my birthday all about me - was my day for myself - by myself. I took myself to museums, plays, a movieā¦ whatever I could manage at the time. Itās harder with a family Iām sure. Sending loads of birthday hugs and love your way 
@SadMemeQueen your best friend isnāt at the facility with you - right? How could they stop you even if they wanted to? Saying they wonāt stop you isnāt saying they donāt care or donāt want you to go through with it. I know you are hurting but hurting yourself will not ease the pain. I am glad you threw out the stuff. Please talk to someone at the facility and please donāt buy anything else 
Seriously this killed me. What an amazing life skill to have and share at her age. 10 min for lunch for a kid is not enough timeā¦half of that is yapping away about kid stuff.
@s_unrelax doing great with 17 days. Keep pushing forwardā¦the last feeling will lift as you gain your sober strength. Keep planning and thinking of your goalsā¦you will get back to working on them and excelling in your journey
This is awesomeā¦I spent a good 2 months or so just staying super busy with tasks to keep my mind and body occupied. It takes time to detox and break free if old habitsā¦also time to build on new habits and routines. You are doing great - be patient and keep walking you path 
@BrownGecko sorry sleep is off ā¦it does get better but unfortunately the crappy nights do come and go for a while. Some great sleep advice on the threads if you want to search 
uptop. Maybe something may be helpful for you. Have you had a chance to check out the Grumpy A-holes (quitting cigarettes/ nicotine products) (Part 2) thread? Some great tips for quitting smoking.
@MrFantastik yippee 
. 1 full Year of sobriety 
ā¦you did amazing work and it shows. Keep stacking up the days
@JonasE congratulations on your 8 months AF! Get healthy and keep working your recovery. The direction will work itself outā¦ first we got to get solid footing in the present
@acromouse sending healing vibesā¦ hope your brother gets better soon and your daughter and the rest of the household is Covid free
@Philipwithonel Iām sorry friend. That would hurt but at least you have official closure and can begin to heal and move on.. Congratulations on your new gig 
Iām sorry love. Glad to see you back in track. That addiction really can play tricks and we have to keep the message that we canāt have one sip ever in the forefrontā¦this will forever be our downfall. Learning that multiple factors and possibly multiple addictions that feed off of one another is a growing step. Take time to work the recovery in parallel - it does get easier
@lighter way to go Marie ā¦ 9 months is absolutely amazingā¦so grateful to see you working your recovery journey and excelling in do many ways. Keep going strong my friend
Checking in on Monday morning 
Not much to report. Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free dayā¦ sending you all so much love

Day 1023
Morning everyone! Just finished shopping for snow pants for my son. I think i may have found some that will fit. Its a mens small and it may be a bit too big but at least he can grow into them. Im going to do some cleaning once i get home and wait for some Minecraft books to be delivered off of fb marketplace. This incredibly kind lady is giving them away to me for free (she had them posted for $10). I didnt mind paying the $10 but she said to have them anyway. Then im going to the gym for a back/bicep workout. Feeling pretty good today! Hope everyone is enjoying their monday!
