That takes guts! Way to take care of yourself!
Checking in day 4 my weekend starts today Enjoying a couple cups of coffee then going to hit the tredmill. Going to get 20k steps everyday this weekend. Off to the grocery store after that for ingredients to make carbonara then plans to veg on the couch in pjs and watch a movie. Staying focused on the task at hand. Well wishes to all

Day 52ā¦checking in friendsš
16 days 20 hours,battered and bruised! A gruelling, challenging day for the children and I on big slopes,falling down,getting up again and still back at the apartment with smiles on our faces,last day tomorrow,I hope for the physical strength for all of us to have a nice last day on top of the piste to the bottomā¦itās been hardcore tough but incredible ā¦thought about drinking but I think I just wanted to numb the bruises!!..so thought went by pretty quickly!
Checking inā¦ feeling very bored after a week hard work. Netflix and chill at this moment.
Wish you all a sober and clean day.
Stay strong!
Happy birthday dude! When I put my music app on random, your band comes up from time to time, and Iām like, āhey, I kinda know that guyā¦ā
Check in Day 47! Going to Omaha Nebraska tomorrow. Trying to be positive about it. Downloading some podcasts and dying my hair atm. Trying not to stay a ādry drunkāā¦ Despite my cold I have powered through yoga, spin class, and swimming this week. Ive taken my daughter to story time, the park, church, swim lessons. Done some shopping. I have every reason to be happy, and I am sober!! I can smell, taste, breathe and feel. Life is not passing me by. What a blessing. Not saying its easy, but its worth it.
Day 44!
Life is happening in such a clear way for me. I am on the right path!
Iām grateful. Iām happy.
I may not check in everyday but Iām glad you all are here.
Thank you!
Have good weekend!
Day 5, planned out my weekend and that helps me from getting restless so much, I need to always do this!!
Check in~ Still recovering from foot surgery! Sooo very tired of Netflix. I found some couch exercises to do with a light weight on my left leg and the cam boot on my right leg. Looked for a different job, which has been interesting and enlightening. I need to find something less insane. Listened to this man on YouTube Hal Elrod on Impact Theory talk about controlling your emotions, a morning routine, positive thinkingā¦it was great! Iām going to order his book Miracle Morning (I think thatās what itās called). I truly loved that interview!
My husbandās aunt is dying so I am going to use my scooter to support my husband and accompany him up to the nursing home. 18 days free from alcohol, by the grace of God!!!
day 6 done. this will be my first week sober (in 2020) from weed and alchol (even if iām not addicted to it, my real problem is weed)
i am experiencing symptoms of withdrawal but iām staying strong and iāve got my families support and medication to help me with my mental health. i am grateful and overall proud of myself
This is so good to see!
Good for you Aly!
It sounds like youāre feeling the recovery. These are good first steps as your body purged out the toxins.
Support is important to get through the tough times. There are some tough roads coming ahead. Do you have a group - even an online one - you can access?
There are online meeting spaces at www.InTheRooms.com & there is online support at www.WomenForSobriety.org - what do you think about making some contacts there?
Life isnt easy but alcohol and drugs arenāt the solution it just makes things worse never better. Thank you God for my life today.
Day 221. I had a rough day at work yesterday. Iām getting nervous about coming of meds now. I heard the familiar calling of the abyss after some rough moments yesterday, and have no interest in experiencing all that again everyday. I feel sharper but also unstable and easily pulled off balance emotionally. Itās a three day weekend so hopefully by Tuesday I will settle down. Thanks for being here everyoneš
Check in #2. I came real close to going to the bar after work and errands. Kept with the program and came home afterwards. Yeesh that was close.
20 days sober today
