Day 38 - Checking In, decided to take a day off work, just exhausted feel like I needed it. Got a ton of sleep, cleaned my place and now Iā€™m going to hit the gym and do some shopping.

I struggle with guilt when I take time off from work, but I think I really needed it to recharge my batteries

Day 1060
Afternoon everyone! Today has been a bisy one! Had an early morning leg work out, then came home to clean, clean, clean. Got the bathroom thoroughly cleaned and organized, did the dishes, took out the trash and recycyling, and will soon vacuum and dust. That should be good for the day!

Ive been having fun lately with my new Ninja blender, making diff smoothies! Today i made a high protein blueberry smoothie that was 367 calories and 53 gr of protein. Ive been working hard this week on my health and im feeling a difference already. My Body Scan is tomorrow at 1030 at the gym so im curious to see what my stats are. Goal is to lose 5lb this month which i feel is achieveable at the rate im going.

Not much else happening in my world. Grateful as always!

Checking in sober but wet.

I planned to run home from the train station, but then the weather forecast changed to snow. In England it mostly rains, so anything other than that is exciting. I donā€™t mind running in the snow. However, the weather had other plans and I ended up running in freezing rain as it was still 1 degree, not 0. When I was drinking I would have abandoned the whole idea (if I had thought about running at all) and gone to the pub to ā€œwait it outā€.

About to take a shower instead and warm up. Sobriety rocks, even when it rains on you.

Hi gang 316 sober days. Made a list of what to do today. Shared with hubby and got a ā€œglad you have a plan and a good oneā€ . AA meeting and exercise dog were on the list and completed. In fact dog has been on two runs as I am avoiding the other TODOs.
@JazzyS Hate to hear you are not feeling chipper.

Fixed good lunch and changed into really comfy clothes. That may have not been wise now want to not tackle the stuff. A few more minutes of NU UH then will face the tasks.

Checking in daily during January is actually quite hard. There isnā€™t that much happening in my life worth talking about.

I met up with a friend today for lunch, we do that every other month or so. Was really nice, we sat and talked and talked and talked, and suddenly it was late afternoon.

If you think Iā€™m showing you some pic of a nice lake in some nature reserve, you are mistaken. This was the restaurants car park today - totally impassable for cars.

:scream::scream::scream: Dang that looks scary. Please be safe. Glad you enjoyed lunch with a friend.

I used to think that we needed to check in with what we did but you can just check in with your count or how you are feeling. Hope that makes it easier to continue your January check ins. It has been nice seeing you daily :hugs:

Thought a bird gif might pop up but that would be chirper not a chipper. Of course any skeleton has Jazzy tagged all over it. If I could reverse the Chipper gif that would be so cool!

And edit to my checkinā€¦ boss needs an estimate typed so MY TODOS can wait a moment longer. :rofl:
