This is my cutie kitten, Callie. Then my moms bulldog named Mia Mocha. They are the sweetest. What are your boys names?
Callie keeps me sober because I know she would go back to shelter if I went to jail again or died

I get through it by remembering that using alcohol or drugs don’t bring anything good into my life and are the road to an early grave.

There are pet threads and lot of distraction threads like nature, sober selfies, music, sober sports, sober traveling. To be honest it is ennervating that for every short question threads are opened and people don’t read and search before.
Reminder for all: Please consider first reading around and posting into existing threads or create your personal check in thread.

you can browse the categories, there are keywords tagged, guidlines and rules. A lot of information, help and caring. Everyone starts differently with different issues and needs for support. So it’s up to everyone oneself to load the sobriety plate according to what people are seeking and searching on this huge buffet of sobriety talking.
This is a thread I really like and read often but there are many more. Search for keywords.
Have you seen this video? It cracks me up so much AND the title and short article. The whole little video is hysterical!!
Idk why it isn’t showing the article as well…
Oscar-worthy’ pet flying squirrel learns how to play dead
A pet flying squirrel put on a performance “deserving of an Oscar” by playing dead with a broom to get his owner’s attention.
Bobo knocked over the brush and then rolled over with it across his chest with his wings stretched out to look like he’d been flattened by the object.
The two-year-old rodent adjusts the broom before returning to his position to appear unconscious.
Owner Joe, who recorded her pet at her home in Taiwan, said he has unlocked a “new skill.”
“He sometimes watches TV with me, so that could be how he learned his trick,” she said.
