Checking in daily to maintain focus #79

@Leveller Ha! I’ll see what I can find out :smirking_face: I’ve got tons of stories about this building. It had a reputation waaay before I lived here. With 8 Apts, there’s always some kinda crazy crap going on :melting_face:

I still feel that way thinking about the basement. Never really did figure out what’s going on down there, but I still hear the noises :unamused_face: Yeah, it’s either someone who knows the building or someone who follows Amazon trucks, for sure. And eww :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth: It’s their season around here too :skunk: Just saw one on my way home tonight!

Noice :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Allergies at an all time high today :sneezing_face: My eyes have been slightly itchy for a couple weeks, but my nose! I hardly blow my nose, bc I’ve found that the more you do, the more you have to. Once or twice a day tops, but today?! Nah. All day long and still running like a faucet! I look like a boogery toddler :weary_face: Didn’t help it was busy at work, bc the more I ran around, the more my nose followed suit :face_with_diagonal_mouth: This is the only reason I’d look forward to winter. Death to plants!!! Anyway, not a bad day otherwise. Have a great 24!

First time I had to use the light on my bike yesterday going to work :flushed_face: . That time of year already. Thinking should I go find my SAD lamp as well, for when I get up in the morning in the dark. As a preemptive measure. Maybe I should.

I slept pretty well. Now for another workday. Yesterday was hectic as usual for a Tuesday. Let’s see what happens today. I’m going to have as good a day as I possibly can and remain clean and sober, that’s for sure. One day at a time. Love from my little square.

39 Day Check-in ~ Weird times. Issues. Astrological madness. Broke as a joke. Worried AF. Also, not to be rude…but I’ve got some wicked gas. That’s all. Goodnight!

Day 2601

Tonight at a work function I was delighted they actually had a few very chic flavors of La Croix (sparkling water) on offer alongside the wine.

What was actually even more delightful was as I sipped mine, some colleagues were also excited. “Oh my gosh, they actually have hibiscus La Croix? That’s actually great. I dunno why drinking at work functions is even a thing.” They ran and got some. It made me smile. Both that I was sober, and to just see others happy not to drink.

And welcome in,@GABV! This place has helped me out so much. I hope you find that, too. :blush:

Checking in to focus on the positive.

I got myself some golden rings that fit on small fingers… I googled it and it is a sign for self love. To be on the save side I wear one left and one right. Looks cool.

I am grateful to be sober!

Odaat focus on the positive…

Much love :heart:

43 days sober and having a very bad body image day. Feeling very unattractive, lethargic and just sad for no reason. I know it’ll pass and I’ll probably wake up tomorrow feeling alright but man does it suck in the moment..

Slept well, still somewhat sleepy. Went for a walk to the bakery, going to get some work on my prototype done. Some todos and a rowing workout later in the afternoon.

More graffitti from the kids.

Peace and love always :lotus:

Quiet day. Slept a bit after nightshift. Picked up the kids from school and hung out with them for a bit before it was time to head back to work.
Quiet at work so far, just some admin stuff that’s a bit of a drag.
