Our cats are home and the storm is wild, so we will be spending the entire weekend spoiling them indoors. Stay safe British folk.

I slept long. Needed that. Had a nice walk around town yesterday which included getting fancy bread and cheese at my current favourite fancy bakery, and visiting some spots nearbu that I never had seen before. Today Iām taking Luna to the vet, hoping that the storm thatās pounding @Tragicfarinelli and all Brits now will move south without giving us too much trouble.
Otherwise Iām taking it easy today. Groceries and cooking. Watching a movie or two. Iām going to make today as good as I can and expect the same from all of you. Sober and clean or nothing will come from it. Love from my walk yesterday.

Yes I hope it misses you. This is a really bad one, especially for those who are in Wales and the South West.
PSA: for every 1% of rise in average global temperature, the air will hold up to 7% more moisture, which transforms into devastating floods and storm patterns. Letās try to take care of this one Earth we have with compassion and care. If you donāt know how, then educate yourself.

@Climbin I hope you get the sleep you need soon.
@PositiveThoughts Hoping youāll get some more r&r on the weekend. Taking care of a lill one by yourself is like having a 24h job on top of everything else.
@BrownGecko Hoping restful sleep will find you soon. My nights are currently also not the best.
@Bomdhil Sounds like you are stuck in a difficult cycle. If you feel like you are āentitledā to relapse, why would you need it? Usually itās because of tension, stress, etc. Maybe some other way to relax would help?
@Alycia I hope some R&R will help you feeling less stressed.
@JazzyS When you run out of horror movies, what is your second choice?
@james83 Congrats on a full week. Nicely done 
@Dilettante 500 days. WOW! 
Congrats on this huge achievement! Stay safe in the storm and enjoy your cozy setup.
@Jesile Thanks for the picture. Itās nice to know there is better weather not that far away.
@LittleMissL WOW! Congrats on 1900 days. What an achievement! Thanks for being an inspiration. Enjoy your cake!

My night was not very restful, but I got some sleep. Iām feeling better today, the morning was easier and I can be up and about more than yesterday.
My daughter is once again sick. I am going to admit it, I feel a bit desperate. Since the school year started she has been mostly either having some infection or migraines. She is missing most of the school year and almost all of her social connections. We already gotten her checked out for any immune system problems. The docs didnāt find anything. That is obviously reassuring, but having her all the time sick at home is worrisome. She herself also feels quite desperate. Being constantly at home sick is not what she wants her teenage life to be about.
But I am not going to let those worries drag me down. Weāll do what we can, and take it one day at a time.
Today I am going to take care of my IT tools and my plants. Maybe some yoga in the afternoon if I feel good enough for that. Otherwise lots of chilling.
Todayās picture is from the North Sea in the summer.
Peace and love for life always

@Dilettante congratulations on 500 days. Something to be celebrated for sure!! 
@JazzyS man, youāve been through a grinder. Sending you positive healthy vibes you break free from this discomfort and get back up and on. Fighting the unknown with your body has to be so draining but you keep it so positive for usā¦ much
@Amy30 loved the vibe and the gratitude, lovely to see such positivity in the world. 
Day 337 AF
Up at 5:30am (trying to prep myself for Monday back to work and arising at 4am 
) lol.
Already have second load in machines so laundry will be finished before the wife gets up and coffee is done as I watched the sun come up.
Plan for a LowerBody superset today in gym, then Iāll see where the day takes me as I plan to be done all my chores/gym before lunch today.
Keep thinking I wanna go in town, perhaps do some shopping, but then talk myself out ofā¦ weāll see how today goes. That said I have a buddy that is quite religious that doesnāt have much and no vehicle. I may see if he would like to go get a little tree to put up and decorate for his little basement apartment. A little seasonal Santa roll play to help him along. Perhaps 
Enjoy your Saturday (or whatever day it is when you come across this) and know that someone out there is wishing you a beautiful sober dayā¦
Be strong

Day 1,640 clean and sober today. According to my Apple Watch I was only awake for 7 minutes during my sleep cycle last night which is CRAZY!!! I am usually awake for approximately 50 minutes throughout the night, this is amazing. I did try something different last night and Iām not sure if it was that or not but I put a teaspoon of moringa powder into a cup of chamomile tea about an hour before bed. I will definitely do it again tonight and see if I get the same results. More will be revealed lol.
Have an absolutely fabulous day today everyone, love you guys!!!

I relapsed, harder than I wanted to. Tried to pump the brakes, and I just didnāt want to. Iām going to focus on the reset, and be back after the holidays.
An early happy holidays to you all 
Itās completely for the kids, let them be merry and loved. Have fun š©·
Iāll be back shortly, and Iāll pop in if I need. Right now, I just need to detox and, try again.

Hey Mel,
Sorry to hear about your relapse. As someone on day 8 AGAIN I can identify.
Remember being mostly sober (trying to abstain) in the holidays is better than letting it all slideā¦ I just say that as I donāt want you to disappear all holiday and have a bigger mountain to climb in the new year I know how my own alcoholic mind works and I would be tempted to just stop trying until I can āfocus on abstaining at an easier timeā. My mind has come up with every excuse imaginableā¦
Good luck, weāre here!

This would be so damn frustrating especially with holidays coming up. They must know how people rely on shifts. 
. Sorry Laura. That bit d reminder is greatā¦I have to up my dosage too. Hope you have a better Saturday
I totally get this. Glad you did get some good sleepā¦ hopefully feeling recharged and happy this Saturday . 4 days to go ā¦love how itās coming to a close for you 
@acromouse I do love horror lol but donāt watch as much in this past year as itās not really horrifying or hitting the same. I do enjoy just about everything. So last night I watched a Christmas movie and then also ended up rewatching Die Hard. Iām so sorry loveā¦itās gotta be frustrating not knowing whatās causing her sickness and for her to be dealing with it for so many days. Hoping that you will find some answers soon
@Chevy55 thanks friend. Appreciate you saying so and the love. Wonāt lie - past week has not been great but I am grateful for finding the silver lining of positivity 
Checking in on Saturday morning
Stay safe my British friends . I did manage about 3-3.5 hrs of sleep. Wasnāt uninterrupted but still good. Feeling awake enough. My sis is coming by in a few hours so thatāll be nice. I havenāt seen her for weeks. Hope my siblings do go out and enjoy the day today. The weather is actually looking decent for a cold winter day.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day - sending you all so much love

Day 22
Going good, my health is improving and people saying Iām getting fat. Iām happy with it because I was very slim before like 60kg. and only my tummy is fat.
When I was drinking I never eat, only drink. i drink for 1 week without food when I think that Iām getting afraid about it.
I spent 2 hours today to learn my course. my aim is to finish the course by this month and build a new resume with learned skills and apply for a job.
Hope you all doing well !
