Morning check in.
A night incredibly weird and disturbing dreams. Thankfully, I just put on a Brooklyn 99 and that settled me back down again. I know we shouldnāt watch screens before bed but that show is sick a lifesaver for me. I tend to only listen to it now anyway!
My son has decided that he might want to attend the therapeutic school that we visited on Monday (that he previously said he didnāt like) and my daughter is less upset about going to school this morning. Maybe their Nanaās funeral - which was yesterday - was affecting them more than we thought.
Lovely and sunny here in East London. Have a good day everyone.

Day 432
I went to a comedy club last night. Another first sober. It was mostly not funny. Iām now questioning things.
Was it funny? Others were laughing.
Have I lost my sense of humour?
Would I have found it funny if I had been drinking?
Was it just not my type of humour?
The person I went with wasnāt really laughing either.
This is the first time in a while Iāve questioned someone with reference to my sobriety.

Keeping active, staying mobile. Chill day.
Eldest has been having some friend/bullying drama at school, so good to be able to head to the gym after school and be with non-school friends and doing something active and that shes good at. A good life lesson there for her. Plus always good to remind her that anyone at her school she can probably kick their ass haha
Welcom @KaidenJames good work on the 3 days and more importantly good stuff making the realisation that you need to kick the drink
@Catfishin-fool great work on the PBā¦ now everyday from here on will also be a PB
@Juli1 huge congrats on 400

Neverending drama with this sickness. Sacha was first, heās now better finally, at school.
Dennis is in the middle of it, zero appetite, grumpy, mean, coughingā¦ at home. Anthony is starting, yesterday this well known already āmommy, Iām so coldā, fever at nightā¦ at home. So Iām at home again. Glad I took a walk yesterday cause today not gonna happen. And sun is shining so beautifully 
Iām also concerned cause in about 2-3 weeks my first contract is finish. Iām 3rd time sick since November. Iām worried they wonāt give me a new one. And I like my job, i want to go to school in the future, become full time kindergarten teacher. Also, it would be extremely difficult to find new work with my limited availability etc. I have this perfect deal that I work few hours extra every week and then have all school vacations free. So yeah, Iām a bit anxious about it.
Iām not gonna lie - Iām so fucking done with staying at home with my kids. You all know I love them so much and would do anything for them but being with them all the time, especially that first I was sick, now they are, is destroying my nerves. I feel like my face changed, it looks so sad and tired. When Iām trying to smile it feels so fake, my face muscles are not used to it anymore.
What the hell have I done with my lifeā¦?

Checking in before I go to bed sober on day 53 without marijuana. I took an accidental nap earlier so Iām in bed much later than Iād like, but i did some yoga and meditation and Iām about to hit the hay. Hoping for no nightmares tonight. Iāll even settle for no dreams at all.
See you all tomorrow morning

I had over two weeks soberā¦ I was feeling good and so proud of myself! All of a sudden, I found some whiskey in my pantry stuffed away. I decided to relapse, so now Iām on day one sober trying again (kicking myself). I had the worst panic attacks and depression today. I hated that my kids were seeing me like this. Hopefully, a lesson will be learned here, and i come back strongerā¦ Itās crazy how a good day ended up to a relapse.

Day 425 AF
Wife has shoved off for 3 weekās vacation and Iām left to fend the homestead.
I have 3 days left this week and then two weeks vacation beginning after Friday. Woohooo
Now previously that meantā¦ well that was another life. Now it means 2 weeks of intensive weight training, cardio, much stretching, some sauna time, perhaps a massage or two, definitely healthy proper food. Just a lot of self care and fitness.
Enjoy your day if you can.

@Butterflymoonwoman hey Dana have you tried using any appetite suppressant supplements? I find them quite good to alleviate overeating.

Checking in. Having a hard time sleeping tjinking of my aister and logistics of court. It seems trivial to be thinking about shit like taking days off work and where we will park when we go to court but my brain is occupied. Im sad this morning. Im sad and tired I didnt sleep well. Its the business of life that carries on around you even when you are going through a nightmare people cant comprehend. Preparinf for the trial but still have to fold socks, answer emails and sweep the floors. Trying to breath in to my children right now they are just small and so incredible, i love them so much and am so grateful for them.
Oh fuck i am tired as shit today and actually not looking forward to work today LOL 
Also started the show the Leftovers and im loving it. Xo. Justin Theroux who knew?

Start of day 3. Today will be hard. Today is the day the salesman shows up with his relentless knocking. Iāve got a plan though. Iāve updated my sobriety card with reflective questions and scenarios to read throughout the day, especially before I go into the grocery store. I read on here that someone was at the grocery store and kept muttering to themselves no every time they had to pass the alcohol aisle. I think Iām going to do that too.
Not today Mr. Salesman, not today!
Have a great day everyone.

I donāt know exactly how I did it, but I downloaded the SoberTime app, which opens the counter, journal, and Talking Sober, then I downloaded TS separately, so it opens on the chat, without a counter. I didnāt do it on purpose, but it means I donāt need to mess with the counter unless I want to open it.
