Today Iโ€™m grateful for waking up on Day 5 for the first time in 2 1/2 years and feel somewhat normal. I slept well, have real energy today and Iโ€™m happy. I have some anxiety but Iโ€™m happy Iโ€™ve made progress. I havent made it past 5 days since 2013 so today is a big day for me. Itโ€™s happy hour time so this is the time Iโ€™d be getting off work and rushing home to open some wine but I have other plans to keep me busy.

Iโ€™m also thankful for meeting all of you! Thank you for the encouragement, the inspiration & laughs!!

Stay strong yall!

Way to go @ash :grinning:
Feels good doesnโ€™t it?

It feels so good! My anxiety is pretty high today because Iโ€™m just barely into day 2 sober and I ran out of my anxiety meds yesterday but I sat down and read a chapter In the big book and said a little prayer. Plans for 9am meeting before work tomorrow and pick up my meds.
Today is not a bad day!

Hi everybody!

Itโ€™seems been a.long time without to read you.

I am traveling because of my work (I am with jetlag already) I I started to think about what am I grateful for todayโ€ฆ

Been working and traveling I think is the most thing I need to be grateful forโ€ฆ I love travel and I enjoy my work, so is the perfect mix. The experience to know different people and culture is amazingโ€ฆ I donโ€™t know what I did to deserve it.

Also is a challenge, because usually, before my sobriety, I got to the bars and stayed there waiting for someone or somethingโ€ฆ spending extra money and sometimes leaving all the responsibilities appart.

Many thanks for you guys, keep me well focus. I been sober for 24 days and totally worth itโ€ฆ

Cheers

Went home from job early cause of tendonitis and it really messes with my work. Went by the store and glanced at the beer section. And quickly mosed off. Walked a bit further and saw the liquer store, glanced and walked off. I couldnโ€™t have done that just a few weeks ago, so Iโ€™m really thankful for the strenght.
