Day 1,627 clean and sober today. Wow yesterday was the worst as far as withdrawal symptoms for my medication and I almost went home from work but I dug deep and stayed. Last night the insomnia/nightmares were not as bad so I have hope that I’m on the mend. I have another week at the 1/2 dose and then I will be off of them. I will definitely be reaching out to my doc if things get bad again but I’m hoping I can heal and be ok.
Have a wonderful Sunday everyone I’m very proud of you all, love you guys!

Day 1015
Morning TS!!! Just wanted to do a check in this morning. Feeling slightly anxious about tomorrow. I am going to be making a phone call to ask some questions and to set up a payment plan for the debt i have. Idk why im nervous about this. I know ill feel better when i can get this phone call over and done with. From what i read, i have 6 years to pay it back and as long as i make a payment plan, my wages wont get garnished or my bank acount frozen. So this phone IS important.
This morning, i did my readings on the train which i havent done in about 5 days. So that felt good to do. Im at work right now for another 8 hour shift. Hope it goes by quickly. I struggled to get up again this morning due to a restless sleep (strange dreams). Speaking of dreams, this is the 2nd night in a row that i have dreamt that i was lost. 2 different environments (first night i was lost in a zoo and last night i was lost in this worn down construction site). Oh my. Im going to google what being lost in a dream means. I do believe that dreams have meaning.
Change of gears, just cuz… no workout today. Taking a rest day (although I may hit the bike or treadmill, probably will). But decided I should rest from weights for a day. This would have been 6th day of weights in 7… perhaps a little too much. I need balance!! Haha
Anyway, began cleaning and am now in full on clean mode. Scrubbing kitchen. About to move stereo rack into corner (just slide a couple feet) so as room for Christmas Tree and perhaps clean up and strap wires to leg in back. Just feel like puttering around with music!

Nice sober day. First run in a while went good. I’m not as fit as 3 months ago when I was working out and running regularly but I will have it back
Had a very pleasant family walk in the park. Weather was incredible today! 16°C and yesterday was close to 0! All that autumn colours… I love it. Here photo one second before I felt from that spinning thingy. Joking, I didn’t fall But it was close.
Day #357
Sunday last Sunday as unemployed
I found a job which is 5 mins walking time from home
Starting tomorrow in one small company. I’ve always worked for big companies and now this will be a challenge for me to work in small company with less than 100 employees
Yesterday and today bought the Christmas presents for the family ( dont tell them that they are from the Black Friday sales )
Everything is good i can say still sober and proud
It’s a sinple setup, but incredibly good. Those wharfdale speakers are insane. I think in three years we may have listened to 3 albums. Haha
Yamaha receiver is Bluetooth so stream through it and TV streams through if we wish also.
