Checking in on day 6. Feeling okay. Moved into a new place so kept busy with unpacking and organizing. Staying busy really helps and constantly reminding myself that I want to create a life that I don’t have to escape from.

@Sarah_Sanderson Every day sober is a wonderful accomplishment. I find that keeping busy helped with the urges but also helped me build a new routine in life that did not involve drinking. It helped get my defenses sharpened for when the urge did sneak in. I had a wonderfully lazy day today watching Godfather I and II.
I love this! Great attitude to have. Hope you are having a fantastic weekend.
@jeanine Congrats on your move. Love building a life that we don’t have to escape from It really is so freeing.
Checking in on Saturday night
948 days free of alcohol and weed
1363 days free of cigarettes
Was dreary overcast day. Humid as all hell tho. Was cramping bad so I decided to just have a lazy day. Did a lot of reading and finally watched my favorite movies. Not much else to report. Gonna read some more and call it a night.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening - sending you all so much love

I’ve been working all day today on my new work project. I have a week to design a super complex project before it goes to the estimating team to bid on for construction and design of a $98 million project. A WEEK!!! I am doing my best and will get something to the drafter for Monday. I suppose my boss knows what he will get with one week’s effort. It’s not my fault if it can’t be done. It’s really not something I need to take any blame for.
I’ve been reading on here during breaks. So many sober milestones! Congrats to all, I’m sorry for not listing them individually. You all rock!
I will not drink today or this week over work stress or anything else.

@Maestro Congratulations on 1,000 days Marty! 
@Lasse Congrats on 90 days Keep on going strong 
892…for real (got ahead of myself yesterday 
)
Today was the exact same temperature as yesterday, but felt 20° hotter bc 100% humidity 
Yuck! And for some reason everyone wanted to eat outside 
Luckily it wasn’t too busy bc I was dragging. Trying to conserve energy the next few days in preparation for the Invite. Biggest, most exhausting weekend of the year starts Thursday. Plan to do a little self care and healthy snack food shopping to get me thru those days (and so I don’t rush around buying junk last minute). It’ll all be over soon 
Not much else going on besides work. Except not tomorrow! Yay 
Hope you all have a super sober Sunday!

Day 1704..
Would you believe that today was a top 20 life moment day, simply because i worked out with my kid?
He was absolutely in it too
I cannot fucking express how important sobriety is, especially with these kids.
But, i am beyond blessed. I lived a top 20 day simply because i got to teach my kid about weight lifting, and that his mind was in it.
That one hour was better than every moment drinking in my entirety.
Just to be there, to teach him, man.
I start my new job tomorrow instead of monday. Gunna crush that. Manager position here I come.
Goodnight. 
Just so blessed, in Jesus name.

Second sober birthday. Was a good day.
Took the youngest to one of her friends birthday parties at a lego building place, pretty cool idea.
Then met up with the wife and eldest for lunch.
Went grocery shopping and then chilled.
Wife is at work tonight so I’m taking the opportunity to start watching The Wire again from s1.ep1

Apart from that one heat wave a rather cloudy and rainy summer this year indeed. Nice morning meeting, although I came in very late after yesterday’s game night.
Going to do my weekly review today, some strength training later, and not much else.
Peace and love always

14 days sober! Two weeks ago, I was pouring shots… today I’m pouring smoothies that look like they came straight out of a vampire’s diet plan. 
Guess what? No hangover. No regrets. Just me, this purple beast, and a brain that actually works!
Discipline isn’t sexy at first… but we know, nothing feels better than waking up and realizing YOU are in charge, not a bottle.
Cheers to progress, to messy emotions, to saying ‘NO’ when it’s easier to say ‘F*** it.’ If you’re on this journey, you’re a legend. If you haven’t started yet, here’s your sign.

But you will get there!!
Checking in on day
809 alcohol free
318 no form of marijuana
449 nic free
It’s possible to be sober and like it
It took a while but it got easier to say no
I don’t wake up and say damn I wish I got wasted yesterday; instead I wake up focused on the day ahead
If your reading this and your sober is being sober really as hard as it’s made out to be?
If your reading this and not sober, is the feeling harder to deal with them putting it down?
Take care everyone

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for touching base. I’m doing well. Day 11 today. Im glad you’re keeping busy, but learn from my mistakes and don’t get so busy you neglect your self or self-care. For me, that’s the first step down a bad path.
Hope yoy have a great Sunday.
