Checkin in on day 7 yay a whole week!!! Super tired this morning but feeling good that Iām not focused and anxiety ridden over finding pills. Instead I can relax and finish upba little Christmas shopping and not be stressed about affording pills. Happy sober Sunday
Happy Sunday, checking in on day 21. Going to church this morning and laundry later since I have to work on Monday.
@Jane.c movie was fab! Wrapped everything nicely, some reviews are complaining but we all enjoyed it. Thanks for asking!
Day 41, checking in.
You managed to stay sober this entire weekend! Thatās awesome. You mentioned before that weekends were hard because you were alone. How did you manage this time?
My timer reads 19 days now. Woke up glad to be sober today.
Thatās a tough one. Regaining trust takes time. Just keep being someone who is trustworthy & know in your heart that you are & in time itāll rebuild that trust. Hope she can see the truth today.
Day 102. Didnāt sleep well AGAIN. Iāve recently had some good nights but last night was not one of them. Lots to do to finish up getting ready for Christmas. Itāll all be ok. Thatās what I keep telling myself. And Iām sober. Itās all good. Stay strong sober friends!
Day 4 sober. I am still sick with the cold or flu. I only want to rest but I have to do so many things. I am hoping the next holidays
Checking in. Off to a 9am meeting and then out to my In-Laws to see my nephews visiting from Italy. Have a great day everyone.
Love this post. Thank you for sharing.
Day 25. Sore throat but glad to be drinking tea. For a lot of my life I usedbeing sick as a excuse to drink more than usual. Same for the holiday season. So much unhealthy normalizing of alcohol. Iām happy not to be doing that today and to be learning, growing, working on better habits. Stay strong and happy holidays to everyone.
Oh man; a couple that has been coming here forever just gave me a bottle of wine, as they do every year! Iām so busy right now and just lookedā¦ Should I give it away or tell them I donāt drink anymore? I could give to my managerā¦
Just give it away Donna so you donāt make them feel bad. Iām sure they would have given you something else if they knew you better. No need to make it uncomfortable.
Thatās what I was thinking too; otherwise theyād feel badā¦ thanks!
If being alone is such a huge trigger for you (which it is), is there anything that you can do for yourself to remove that trigger from your life while your wife is away at work?
I would love to see you stack up even more days when you get back from Denver.
