Checking in daily to maintain focus #73

Happy Tuesday!

Yesterday was super productive. Its so much better sober. When I was drinking I really didnt get anything done the next morning because I was trying to recover.

Quarter after 5 so time to get up and get things started so MAKE it an awesome day my friends!!

Apparently dead hangs are very good to give space in the shoulders as well! Iā€™m not sure if that is a general recommendation for all shoulder issues, but Iā€™m told itā€™s an incredible strengthener and letā€™s everything reset.

Not sure if that was a typo but I love ā€œdreadmillā€. It really does take some mental strength to get done. :clap:t2:

@Seb oh thatā€™s great news friendā€¦ Thanks for the update. So happy that you are able to continue with your life and get back to your workouts.

Checking in on Tuesday morning
I did my best to call it a night early yesterday. Stayed away from the phone too but still a crappy night of sleep. Up more than I slept and now feeling so tired. Gonna try to move about and hopefully wake myself up cause the coffee is making me sleepy :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:. Plus the morning sniffles for past week are now all day sniffles and congestionā€¦think I have a head cold. Luckily itā€™s not COVID or the flu.

Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free dayā€¦ sending you all so much love :heart::heart:

Thanks! Yeah, Iā€™m in a better place today although Iā€™m extremely sad. Iā€™m just so tired of having these mental health problems and addictions. But gotta just focus on one moment at a time. I wish you a wonderful day!

15 days and counting. Actually got some sleep last night. Crashed out before midnight, so thankfully not as tired as I was yesterday. Yesterday was rough. Going to meet up with a friend I havenā€™t seen since '99 tomorrow, super stoked. Sheā€™s also AF, itā€™s kinda awesome how many people I hold dear, that have taken the route of no alcohol.
@JazzyS hope you feel better soon.

@Frank68 good for you getting things done! Idk how you do that early in the morning, but go you.

@Juli1 look at you go, Iā€™m super impressed almost a year in!

@CanadianGirl congratulations on day 19, and a good nightā€™s sleep. I swear sleep is so elusive sometimes. Hope work goes well and you have a great day too.

I know you must be absolutely worn out, let the Drs do their thing and care for you, and maybe have another think about assisted living just till you get back on your feet.
So glad youā€™re safe friend :hugs:

A lot of my decks have black in them, so i guess iā€™ll have to say my favorite color is black.

Then next favorite would be green. Then blue.

I just made a new version of my Rakdos Lord of Riots deck.

Checking on day 3 AF and day 11 cocaine free. Feeling good. Actually woke up early enough that I could work out before workā€¦ Couldā€¦ didnā€™t but could have! Which is such a big change, never would I have been able to even consider doing anything before work. Barely could make it to work some days!

Have a wonderful day everyone.

Doing my morning check in on day 9šŸ˜ This community has been vital to be and any progress. I realized Iā€™d be 30 days off I didnā€™t slip but this time has been so much different and this community is a huge part of that.
@JazzyS focus on you is always needed. Iā€™m happy youā€™re focusing on self care today.
@MrMoustache Iā€™m so glad you got some rest and youā€™re safe.
