Gorgeous sky. I felt somewhat inferior at my meeting; I was the only person in the room not knitting.

Just hanging on the couch with my iPad, tea, blanket and candle reading this thread. About to start a book but now youāve all got me really wanting some ice cream.! My son is hanging with me playing Xbox. Can hear the rain outside. Super relaxing.

Here we are again! Another sober Friday night. Tonight I am chilling at home. There was a snow storm today and I think most people are hunkering down at home. Just made a fire and planning a quiet night of reading and checking in with friends etc.
Just got whacked in the face with a craving, so came immediately here to resume focus. KEEP reminding myself of my intention to get up at 6am tomorrow (Sat) to go to my home meeting (7.15am daily). One of the people there is celebrating 1 year sober from alcohol and drugs, so trying to keep that central to my mind to push out any cravings tonight.

Been giving some thought to my cravings, having had one a little earlier. I still have an ever present thought/anxiety about alcohol (eg, my work discussing having our xmas party at a brewery earlier today made me nervous, but then I realised I donāt need to stress about it now, it is some time away). Iām talking the kind of cravings that hit you in the face and make your mouth water. I donāt get them often, maybe once a week and they are sudden and surprising.
My first instinct was to drop what I was doing and log in here.
I then noticed I was hungry and am currently stuffing myself with delicious pasta.
I put on the strength in sobriety playlist with songs suggested by folks from this fabulous place in a separate thread (playlist here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2oiHyCfoHZtTTM0jt8f9V7)
Also drinking some seltzer.
All this has been a big help. Iām going to try to reframe my cravings from something to panic about to a signal that I need to check in with myself and identify what basic needs I am lacking in.
I am going to do some writing, reading, and meditation tonight. Maybe TV, but itās not really my thing lately.
Cheers for being here everyone, you are all the best and this place means so much to me and is saving my life.
