Thank you for answering, I was impressed by the ammount of snow. Here in Europe the winters are getting less cold, so no snow and plenty (even much more then usual) rain. I can remember having ijsvrij (icefree) because of the snow and cold and we could go skating instead of school. I don’t think we had snow last year, maybe for a day ore 2 and just a bit?
Erosion problems. We have no mountains ore rocks whatsoever here…But I asume rocks collapse?

Day 1455,
Did talk with my girlfriend sinecdays ago, we talked it out. Didn’t run away, she did either. Relationships are challenging due to my avoidance of conflict, so this feels like proper growth to me. The relationship/connection improved after the conflict. I smoke my cigarettes again, but I’m mild to myself about it….just not the time for it and that’s fine for now.
Have a sober 24 hours

Did you realy believed that?
You had relapses before.
I do not want to sound harsh and I know I do. But recovery begins with looking at yourself and your addiction and be honest to yourself.

I’ve heard that it’s happening in many areas. Warmer temperatures, less snow. I wonder if the lower altitude areas here have more climate change issues. Now I’m interested to do some research. In general the temperature here is pretty low…the hotest day this past summer was maybe 23 or 24 c. Do you miss the snow?
So it’s prettt flat there? You know I have an irrational fear of flat land? 
can’t explain why but when I’m in a flat place and can see so far all around it sorta freaks me out. Anyways here it’s all mountains. It’s very rocky but the soil isn’t very good so we have a lot of landslides and rockslides. The worst problem is when the snow melts or when it rains the water run off down the mountains causes problems and sometimes certain areas then look different or become unstable. This is why the road is often closed.

How about visiting a meeting to pass the time? Also a good space to connect with other people who can understand and encourage you.
There is no reason why the other shoe should make you drink. You do not have to drink; this script is not a script you have to follow.
There’s a list of meeting links here:

Thank you for that. I got sloppy with my tools and stopped reading and journaling. BIG mistake.

Day 13
It was a busy day at work today and I’m very tired at the moment. Have a lot of cravings today and decided I’ll go to bed early so that I won’t give in…
Tomorrow is a new day

You should come over to visit me and Claudia in our country for some exposure therapy then! To make it even more of a challenge most of it is below sea level.

Oh man flat land and below sea level! I’d be out there half panicked. Seriously though it does look beautiful. Is a different type of beauty than the mountains I’m used to. Is it still green there??

Day 12 - Checking In, feeling pretty decent, but generally just very tired. I seem to have kicked my head cold (Yahoo).
Heading into another weekend I have some good plans in place, lunch with a friend, church and some hanging out with my family.
Proud of you all, as always!

The picture is from September. But indeed most of the grasslands stay green all winter, also because frost is becoming rarer by the years here. This pic is from ten days ago.

Checking in 
This morning I went with my mom to do some paper work for her pension, the guy that attended us was extremely friendly! Nice surprise, I even thanked him for that! 
Also I got a phone call to start my rehabilitation for my shoulder, and they gave me the first appointment of 20 sessions for upcoming Wednesday at 1:30 pm, which is the day we have our company X-mas lunch. Ooooh…. What a bummer, but now “sadly” I won’t be able to assist to the BBQ where most people will get shit faced! Ohhhh!! 
At least now I have a good excuse to skip!! 
Thank you universe! 
I’m not often in the capital, took this picture of our beautiful cathedral this morning:

It’s in the past so no use beating yourself up. But lessons need to be learned. This is one of the reasons we need our fellows. We need connection. We need reminders. And maybe next time you think you can handle one or two you can remind yourself what happened last time. And come here or you can go to another meeting of addicts where you can cure yourself of these addict’s dumb ideas. Glad you’re here now. Wishing you all succes. One day at a time.
