Day 50
What on earth is this, I’m on slightly positive mood and looking forward this week.
Checking in day 315 AF
500
Nice number
@james83 he’s better, thank you for asking. Apparently sometimes it’s happening, it’s quite common, and can take 3-5 days. Dennis is on day 4 and it’s much better today.
I still don’t have blood test results but I’m also better finally so I doubt it is/was whooping cough.

We have guests. My h friends with kid, nice people. Now Im in my boys bedroom waiting for them to fall asleep (i still have to stay in their room till they sleep, otherwise its not working) and hubby with friends are drinking and taking coke downstairs. Their choice.
My sobriety is safe today, no way I’m gonna drink or take with them. Probably gonna go downstairs, stay with them hour or something, and go to sleep. People on coke are sooooo annoying Way to much talking, way to big ego.
Love you people
Thank you Jazzy you always keep it positive I dig it PMA All Day you have a great day my friend!
Glad you are keeping away from it. Feel myself getting annoyed that they are drinking and using while you are trying to stay sober and putting your kids to bed!
@Just_Laura Thank you! I’m still learning. Few years ago I stopped forcing myself to act like extravert, took me 35+ years to accept myself. I accepted that this is who I am - I’m not super social, loud person. I always wanted to be, and I was after alcohol and drugs (except weed, after weed I was even more quiet). Now I don’t care so much if everyone like me or not. But still being around women who are so charismatic makes me feel I miss something. Idk. I’m working on it
Yes, I agree, a weight gets lifted the more I share my experiences about who I was in addiction and who I am becoming now. I never would have thought that at some point I’d be able and willing to share my deepest and darkest parts of myself with others.
Day 1002
Today has been really busy! A big grocery shop, then washed the dishes, did 3 loads of laundry, gave my son a bath, and then we decorated the Christmas tree. Tonight will be an easy supper (frozen pizza) so that I dont really have to cook. Its been a good day but I didnt do any of my usual morning routine (prayer, readings etc). I really should make time for it, even if my day is go go go. Hopw everyone is also having a good day!
@tailee17 I love that gift. I love dogs like that . Day 14. attending to meetings and with hope in my heart.
@JazzyS thank you dear Jasmine. I feel much better today. I took natural medicine and seems working well.
I have gratitude in my heart
@Bunto great work on using your tools and getting past the urges. 9k running? That is awesome…sure it felt amazing in those conditions. Keep working on your recovery. Maybe support through AA or other recovery groups may be better? Sorry you aren’t getting it at home.
@Raspberry YES! 50 days is fantastic and I love that you are feeling so upbeat. Have a fantastic day/ week
@Seb that’s awesome Sebastian great to see you checking in with this beautiful milestone
@Mischa84 that is a beautiful number!! Glad you and your sobriety are safe for tonight. Dealing with prop actively drink or high is not fun. Glad you have other ways to keep yourself entertained.
@Tito23 thanks Pedro
@Bomdhil yes!!! 2 weeks and climbing. Way to go Thomas. So glad that you are feeling better too
Just woke up from a deep 2 hour nap …I do very much needed that. Now of course it’s 5:30 and about to be pitch black … Gonna enjoy the evening
Thank you kindly
Thanks Jazz! Hope the new owners love the house as much as we did.
@CATMANCAM thanks mate!
Early check in today for 239 days. Time is flying!
The 18th March 2025 is my one year sober. I can tell you honestly that there has not been one day I’ve wished I had gotten drunk in the last 239 days.
I think about a drink here and there, and that thought now feels repulsive. I don’t want to feel drunk ever again, the hangover, the feeling of needing more after the hangover disappears. The tiredness, anxiety and stress. The toll it takes on my body, the way it wears down my muscles, my spirit and my self control.
I have been finding however, that tiredness has been giving me the same negative effects of being drunk so that’s the next thing I’d like to work on alongside by weight and binge eating.
Have a great week everyone!
I’m catching up on my reading. I hope your daughter if feeling better real soon!
Good for you. Good attitude. Keep checking in with your positivity you can succeed!
I just love how you always Check in. I see you and thanks for giving me hope!
that’s so nice of you to say! Thank you so much I’m glad it helps. I always make sure to check in regardless of how busy I am because I couldn’t do it without my TS family.
