I have during this journey become to realise that self love is something I was totally lacking. I am slowly but most definitely surely starting to put myself first. Your message is very very true! I saw this this mornā¦

Sorry to hear about the work situation. hopefully it will work out for the best. Hopefully thatās the last drunken fall you will have. Glad to see youāre giving up the alcohol. Lots of advice on here on what other people have done to help make that transition. You can do this.

Thinking about you today @SoberWalker.
#117. Spent yesterday wandering Madison. Made the drive up to spend time by myself, look for records, enjoy 40 degree sunny weather. Stopped in for coffee at shop that also sells high end alcohol, mainly for convenient rest room as well, walked by aisle with zero trigger. Amazing. Overall very relaxing day, nice drive home, movie and pizza with 27 year old on break, silent treatment from STBX and dozed off on couch. Need more days like this.

Checking in day 139. Supposed to be going to the do at my sister in laws later. Iāve decided I donāt want to go 
I never donāt go even though her husband and son never are at any dos because they donāt want to come. This morning I thought, my MIL never questions them fuckers not going to doās. Itās never a problem if they donāt wAnt to so why should I!?..I just donāt wanna goā¦ that simple. Itās not because of drinking itās just cause Iāve always just rolled with it and drank my way through it because I donāt really want to be there, so now Iām going to do what I want this year. Iām stopping at home with a meat and potato pie a gallon of ginger beer and my new kindle 
. FUCK EM! 
sorry for ranting guysā¦
Iāve no family left (mum, dads and sisters) my hub has two sisters and a mum and they are always going shopping, lunches and girly days out and they never invite me! In 14years they have never even bothered to ask if I wanna join them. I would never do that to my daughter in law if she had no female family left. When ever they need anything sorting paperwork wise or cleaning doing or anything internet wise doing they can always find me 
. Wellā¦ enough! Again guys, sorry for this explosion 
have a greAt sober Saturday all xx

Sorry to hear that; it sucks being in that state of not knowing whatās going to happen. It looks like youāve been working at it for a while; I donāt have any room for advice but I hope you find your footing. 
A lifetime of a habit is so hard to change; I get that for sure.

Good morning Donna!!
Good morning Chris! Howās Utah this morning? My weekend shifts are 7 am to 5 pm so Iām up and running, lol
You have a weekend get away this weekend? Or did I read that wrong earlierā¦
Utah is cold this morning, 21Ā°F! Other than that itās great. Yes, taking a little mini vacation until Monday. But it will be fun and relaxing. Glad to see youāre up and running. Hopefully work flys by. Post some more beach pics if you get a chance to motivate my ass to plan a real vacation. I could use some sun and sand!
Still trying to plan your vacation to see your mom?
Hoping today is a good day for you!
I was looking at flights yesterday, trying to see what works with work here and someone to watch my kittyā¦ Iāll post some pictures soon! Enjoy your mini vacaā¦
I will for sure. Looking forward to the pics!!

@anon35096624 hang in there!! You are so close to 90 days. Iām hating it for you that your phone broke & youāre surrounded by alcohol but that shows me that you are so strong! Keep taking it one day at a time. Iām cheering for you & I know for me things have gotten a lot better after I turned the 100 day corner. So keep going!!

Hey @Rob68, I havenāt been able to read either and just came to check in quick. Iām feeling strong (today) in my sobriety. I can tell itās fragile but will keep being honest about it. For now Iām safe because I think I have the flu, I unfortunately had to power through yesterday because of a timeline at work. So close to done that I can take the weekend off to be sick and finish Monday 
How are you doing?
