I apppreciate you trying, but I don’t want to introduce others at this moment, at all. To me this sentence doesn’t belong, so there is no need to reframe.
Thanks for your concern. It’s nothing serious and it does not require any procedure. It feels like having water or cotton in your ear. The hearing is bad, there is some pressure, and sometimes sounds. This will resolve by itself. It’s just a nuisance.

Lastnight at my 20 year reunion event was a blast and much needed for me. It was great to come together to reminisce on old memories while creating new ones. I got to hang out with one of my best friends from back in the day ( we’ve been rocking since 5th grade) and meet his wife for the first time in person. God is good. I am happy and sober.
Enjoy haha

It really was a good time. We have a family event today so that’ll be more chill but equally as fun. I’m glad that I’m able to reconnect with life long friends from the past and acquire new ones as I continue down this path of recovery. Blessings all around.

220 days sober
I spend the day with my friend S. We had coffee, apple crisp and talked for hours. It was refreshing to just talk and relax together. It made for a chill day. Am relaxing tonight, hoping to sleep real well and then have a productive work day tomorrow.

I’m sorry friend. I don’t know how you deal with it and are still there for your family. I hear ya on being apprehensive about the injections… sometimes the solution actually causes more issues and it’s all a gamble. I do hope that you are able to find some relief soon
I agree that murder house was the best. The last few have been subpar imo… excited to see them going back to the original cast and mentallity for the new season

Have you tried replacing your coffee with chicory?? The body and flavor is so similar I almost don’t notice the difference anymore. I just like the taste of coffee though and couldn’t care less about caffeine so maybe you notice the difference more but is something to give a try. Or try half coffee and half chicory? I’ve also done that when I need to ration my coffee beans.

This has been a hard week emotionally but drinking would have made it so much worse. I would have had to go through what Im going through but also the consequences and mess of drinking.
Today I am mostly getting ready for a business trip next week and going to my women’s meeting in the park. And I caught up a bit on TS cats, pets and checking in threads. Now I’m ready to start getting ready for my trip but my cat Cori is on my lap so of course I can’t move. Have a good day/evening friends!

Oh I remember that show. I think I watched some episodes some time. I think I have to revisit it and draw some more monsters 
Thanks for reminding me.

Day 1001
Morning TS 
How is everyone?
Just at work for another 8 hour shift. Going well so far. Was able to tune into a Sunday sermon thru Elevation Church this morning as my client was still asleep. So that was a nice way to start my day.
Thinking about the 24 hours ahead… my plans for the day are to complete my shift, do some laundry once I get home, make tacos for supper, and get a good rest. Busy week ahead that I have to prepare for.
Also going to get back on track with my eating. I have fallen off pretty badly with that and im not liking how i feel physically. So must make some changes. Exercise is put on hold until Thursday when my son returns to school after fall break. But will try to get some sort of exercise in one way or another until then.
Have a great addiction free day everyone!

Day 17. Great family and friends day plus a gym visit this morning. Feeling pretty good and ready for another busy week ahead at work.
Hosted Sunday lunch for friends and that’s always a trigger to drink but I played it forward and thought about how likely it would be that I would stop at one. Not possible. So I had none
