I decorated my room with Halloween decorations.
I took myself out for coffee and a scone, I did some browsing in an antique store and I wisely avoided a stop in at a bar to see my sister when it didn’t feel right.
Watched shameless uk on Netflix and drank coca cola
I put together some incredibly fiddly models. Absolute NERD alert but it takes all my concentration and it something you can never do after a drink.
I went to an opioid/ overdose awareness event put on by my treatment center and it was AWESOME… They had food trucks , live music, got to hear alot of amazing stories and they had different treatment related places set up lil areas with alot of helpful info and freebies. It was awesome to see the turnout and all the support…
Hey that’s fantastic, good on you! Keep doing that and add to it!
Please don’t duplicate active threads tho, mods are working hard to keep this place tidy.
Reached out on here and talked shit out
Took care of my injured Mom all day, trying to keep her comfortable .
Fixed lunch for us.
Tidied up the house.
Did a load of laundry.
Watched some old Westerns on T.V.
I cooked supper for my family. Listened to 16 mins of positive affirmations. Wrote a recovery reminder list.
Didn’t pick it up!
I meditated when the monkeys tried to takeover the zoo.
I went to in person AA meeting 10am. 1 pm Online Class for Mindfulness. 3pm Online AA meeting. 5:30 Kaiser intensive out patient program on line.
In past two weeks - I had 21 meetings.
Not just today, but for the past several days: I’m the creator and admin of three Facebook groups. Monitoring everything is time consuming, which is perfect for me.
I am so glad you are on the right track. Keep it up.
Finally put myself first and was selfish in my recovery
Welcome. Hope your accepting you come first in your Sobriety Journey gives you the confidence to hang in there. You will find great support here.
I just reread the previous post. I am a bit of a hypocrite. I don’t always put myself first. I neglect myself from selfcare frequently. I believe I am going to practice what I preach today. How am I to help and encourage others if I just type this “S–T” and move on to type more fabulous self helps (“S–T”) and not do what I suggest for myself? Today I will treat myself well and I come first. You rock my sober friends. You can follow me.
I loved this post. How is your day of self care turning out.
I will join you now with a nice meal then a manicure and a foot soak.
Absolutely love your day Billy! Great job living and not craving!
Spent time with my cats. I need to be sober to care for them, so that responsibility helps to keep me sober.
