@Jesile Congrats on 50 days! Nice work A bit jealous of your weather there @Mischa84 Magic numbers there! Well done We’ve got the same weather here. I woke up to a bit of snow and now it’s rain and hail. Probably freezing over the streets. @Philipwithonel Just out of curiosity: Is it hard to dry those trucks in the winter conditions? @Chevy55 Congrats man! One full year of learning and rediscovering life. And many thanks for sharing your journey with us. @Scorpn Hoping you are getting the needed rest @Tragicfarinelli Don’t tell it to anybody, but I actually know people who enjoy doing their tax return. @MrFantastik Thank you for your kind words. And don’t sweat it. That’s the beauty of this place. There is always someone around to help out, to listen, to share. I am getting slowly better and that’s the important part. And I am glad to hear your pain has lessend too. @Lainenicole96 Welcome back Good to see you here It’s nice to hear how your training and work are coming together. About you sobriety: Can you think of specifical steps you can take to make this time easier on you? @Von100 Sorry to hear you had such a hard day. I hope a good night’s sleep will make it a bit better @Mira_D So glad to hear you had so many wonderful people around you at this very hard time of the year.

Today I am going to do my weekly review. I haven’t done one in a month due to my illness. I am happy I am able to do one today.
I also want to do short rowing workout in the afternoon.
Today’s picture is a fun one from our hiking trip in Ireland many years ago.
81 days for me still with no alcohol. 82 if i take the hours out of the equation hah. Anyway. I have had some of them dreams. Do miss them for now. The sleep thing is interesting to me right now. I do fine all work week. Sleep normal. Then i hit a meeting friday night and seem like i have an energy boost until Sunday. Then i nap and try to get back on track for Monday again. Any clarity or hope for that changing soon? Should i seek something to regulate that? Dont take pills either. Open to all advice!
Sleeping is getting better as the days go by. It’s -35 C here (-31 F) and it’s hard to stay inside house so much. The cold air refreshens and clears your mind though.
I wore this blue suit as a rain cover through all of our trip. And then suddenly we came upon this house that had the exact colour. We obviously had to take some fun pictures.
I share with you that of course it is possible to past Christmas days sober, that maybe nobody is aware about what are you drinking, and, finally that, more or less, it is possible to have a good time.
I encourage you to enjoy sober awakenings and morning walks in a quiet happiness. We have plenty of things to put in value now we are sober.
Good morning. Today I will continue to manifest my non-drinker status. When I think about sobriety today I will simply remind myself that i am a non-drinker and its not part of my life anymore and doesn’t need to cause me any more trouble.
I will also discuss with others on here, which I have already started, about relapse and how it happens before you take a drink or DOC. Know the signs and have a plan in place.
Have a great day, I’m going to check in again later this evening if anyone wants to chat!
Wow, 81 days is so wonderful, congrats! I don’t have any spesific advice for sleeping because my sleeping is what it is. I used tematzepam before, but I don’t wanna rely on benzos. And melatonin hasn’t worked for me, so I just try to sleep knowing that my sleep will get better after getting more sober days. But it varies from people to people. I’m glad you can sleep during work week though!
☆ Day 2300
I like my numbers today
Thinking a bit of minimizing my daily check in’s. I have not much to share these days…
But on the other hand these check in’s kept me sober all this years. Can I do without them? Can I bike without trainingswheels?
I have no other recovery group, this is all.
Going to chew on it for a while
Picture from my last walk a few days ago.
Today? On our way to an orchid farm with my wheelchair in our car Hate that thing.
But it’s temporary, that’s the good part!
Have a good day ore night all
I was thinking of going to get some melatonin but also there is a big game on tonight. Go Lions Ive always been able to get up and make it to work. Sometimes i wonder how i did it when drinking. But i was raised the “play you pay” way. Started Roofing at a young age. Dont miss that. But it did make me the worker i am today.
