My 2196th day in a row hangover free. I remember what I did last night. And I feel zero guilt, shame, remorse.
I even love myself today. I didn’t even know that was possible when I came out of my last blackout.
Today we get to haul some crab gear. Im excited.
The old me would not be up early and feeling so hot. Probably half drunk from the night before.
I remember seatox. It hurt. Coming off the booze. Sweating, my poor coworkers had to smell that stinky booze sweat. Swearing I would never do that to myself again only to do it again and again.
Sneaking a beer or six out of my back pack just to get through the day.
Alcoholism is so much fun! 
I’ll take a “boring” night of being kind to myself on Saturday night over all that “fun” seven days a week!
Have an awesome Sunday! I’m going to even though I’m working!
@Mno you shouldn’t have said you don’t have nightmares yesterday! 
Enjoy another vacation day!

It’s mostly for bladesmithing at the moment. However, I have done some silver casting in the past and would love to get the equipment to do that sort of work too.
I keep using the excuse that I don’t have the tools I need to work efficiently. But I do have the basics to get started. Even if that means it takes a little more elbow grease for a short while.

That sounds fun! I’ve been wanting to play around with that.
Hammers, hot steel, sounds satisfying!

Good morning friends, day 3. Slept crummy in the hotel, but at least it’s not night sweats from drinking.
Will leave here (Florence SC) shortly and finish our drive to Williamsburg…
Enjoying the peaceful time with Linda.
Have a great day!

Day 1708. Hi everyone. It’s been a minute since I last posted. It was about 5 years ago that I found this place. It took me 4 months to stop the madness, but coming here multiple times a day made the difference. So, heading towards five years sober in early March. Can not believe it.
It is nice to see familiar names!! Those who are still here fighting the good fight, supporting others…
Not much going on …. Since May I have retired, become a grandmother, seen my younger son get married, bought a new and rather grand RV to tour the US, been diagnosed with Graves’ Disease (damn!), and remained sober. Alcohol still crosses my mind with all the bullshit lies I used to tell myself about drinking, but due, in part, to my longevity of not giving in …. it has worked out. Drinking totally sucks.
Happy Sober Sunday to everyone.

Good morning, everyone! Checking in on day 34. I am really enjoying these hungover free mornings. Have a bit of running around to do today before hubs gets home, I’ll meet him at his mom’s acreage to do the chores. I took tomorrow off so I have a four day weekend, normally that would mean a lot of day drinking today but that is not an option anymore. Going to check out another meeting this afternoon if I have time. Have a good day, everyone

Day 1,485 AF
@JazzyS @Alisa @tailee17 @Lucalds Ty, for your replies regarding my stomach issues. I feel a lot better. Saurkraut and vege soups did the trick. I have ClearLax, but I’m not a big fan of laxatives. I noticed that eating meats gets me constipated, and it’s hard on my stomach. I gotta chill on the carne asada. No mas. I was supposed to go back to Kaiser for a colonoscopy, but I’m not good at following orders. It’s time to have it checked out. I remember I couldn’t stop shiting myself back when I was drinking, but beer shits wasn’t healthy either. Well, that’s enough 
talk. The Poop topic would’ve been a more appropriate thread.
Anyway…
@Brian1965uk Happy Belated bday, mate! 
@Jette Congrats on 90 days! And congrats on your MO free days. Great work!
@Mno Sorry about the scary dreams, mate. Dreams can really shake us up sometimes.
@Thumper1213 We all started at Day 0 and are working on 24 hrs. Focus on today. Stay connected. You got this!
@en_dub Congrats on your 30-day chip! 
I’ve been staying busy with work and the family. I have a 4 day weekend and don’t gotta work til Wednesday. We went to my bro-in-law’s bday dinner last night. Caught up with some old family members. My uncle said I looked really skinny and thought I was sick or something. Told him I had quit the booze.
Going to my nephew’s bday today at the park. I woke up and went to the store to pick up some baking goods. The wife is making cupcakes for the bday party. Sipping on coffee right now.
That’s all, gang.
I hope everyone’s doing well. Take care ODAAT 
. Much love.

Hi Everyone. Well it’s been 97 Days with no alcohol, but yesterday and today am feeling seriously anxious. Has this been anyone else’s experience? I know it’s just early days of not drinking but any advice is deeply appreciated
