I’ve matured greatly in this journey. I poured my dad a glass of spiked egg nog and had no desire despite smelling the whiskey. Even went to the liquor store yesterday and purchased Tito’s vodka and egg nog for a holiday party at my house yesterday. I can’t believe how confident and sure I am of being a non drinker. If the thought crosses my mind I always play the tape all the way through. The poison isn’t worth the health issues, loss of time, loss of memory and life destruction. Very very proud of all of the tests and parties and social outings I’ve experienced in these past 148 days that haven’t bent my will to stay true to my growth and development. I have grown and accomplished so much mentally in the past few months and I know for a fact I wouldn’t be where I am if I were still drinking until black out almost 4/7 days a week…sometimes daily … ugh fuck alcohol
Give it away to someone who will appreciate it and doesn’t have a problem with alcohol. That’s what I did with the wine I got at work. Best choice ever.
Yay you!! You’ve worked so hard and all that work is paying off. Stay strong. You’re doing great.
Yay… still good and after christmas, just before the new year the big 90 is up for me.
Been really well lately and bussy writing and performing. Really found back my passion and i feel blessed.
Thanks you all for being here, supporting eachother and sharing, today is the day my father was burried but it really was allright in the end. Replaced bad memories with good things and now for the christmass struggle missing my mother but im in good company.
Bless you all and have a good holliday season and all the best for next year… maybe a bit early but he… i mean it though

Thank you this post, @Fargesia_murielae 
I read your words and come to an understanding of my own just now 
Step 3 is an act of Self-Love. For God IS Love and Love IS God. You’re right, it’s a choice we make, to no longer be seperated from His love, but rather to embrace it, through acts of self-love, kindness and compassion, for we are all worthy of love, some of us have just forgotten this or have been misguided and/or hurt. I feel like when we practice Step 3 we are acknowledging our worthiness, for we ALL deserve love 
and we ALL matter!
Love this!! My ways certainly didn’t work, there was much pain and suffering; but now I listen to God’s voice instead of my own ego, and His voice is pure love
Day 28 no fags or booze.
Was at a party yesterday and another today no issues at all. Comfortably drank soft drinks and tea. Then thought did I used to look like that? when I’d had too many. 
enjoying this sober version of myself. Hope you are all good too today. 
Checking in day 600 sober! 
Day 22. The last few have been rough went to 3 Christmas get togethers all with drinking. I did not drink. My hubby was so grateful one morning after that I made him leave at a decent time. Im also going through some family stuff that I’ll share sometime soon. Got these as a gift from a friend. She knows I’m not drinking at the moment and felt bad still giving them to me but I told her not to worry. I think it speaks volumes as to why I’m on this journey. Hopefully I’ll never need to wear them!
Checking in on Day 152. Kettlebell session this morning. Shopping a bit, and relaxing!
Have a strong day!!!
I feel not brilliant. Joint issues started kicking in after about 4 miles. But I had to get to that overlook and then walk back. I did squats, didn’t eat breakfast, then hiked for 10 miles. I only got about 3 hours of sleep last night, this was my idea of solving that sleep problem.
I’d take a couple of days though! But I’m off the whole week anyway. 
That is the overlook. Half way. I have a bunch more pics if you want to see.
I’ve got some good wallpaper.
I’m just tired reading about your day! Hope you sleep better!
I’m sure it’s the coffee. Today I limited myself to one cup right after squats. I actually felt really good this morning, but I can’t keep that up.
94 Days. Almost forgot to check in. Looking forward to a short work week. Also, have to finish shopping. Normally I’d be in panic mode but sobriety has allowed me to be calm and deal with it. Keep taking it one day at a time all my TS friends.
Sobriety is peaceful, isn’t it? It really is for me
