Tried to be outside as much as possible as it was 40 degrees F today! Not the -10 to 15 it had been for over a month.
Reached out to my son, the addict, and wished him a wonderful sober weekend.
Spent time with my HP and feeling at peace.

As I really want some fundamental change in my mind about alcohol, I finally started reading a book I’ve seen on this forum a lot: This Naked Mind. I’m very curious about it and hope it aids my sobriety

Woke up feeling like I wanted another layaround day, but was feeling well enough not to be able to justify that. So i went to a meditation class and an AA meeting, which is quickly becoming my saturday routine.
I cried in that meeting. Ive been so triggered and so anxious these last few days, im full of self doubt and SO SO SO MANY FEELINGS. I let out some of it, but now that im home i think its time to just feel it all and ugly cry for as long as i need
After that, its a cold rainy night, so i think i might go pass out some warm cloths and rain ponchos to the unhoused in my neighborhood. I think i also have enough stuff to make some sandwiches (and i wont be able to eat cheese or meat for a few days so I dont want it to go bad.)
By then i will have earned a movie night in front of the heater

Morning meditation done.
I have been stressing about a couple of things work related, and instead of stressing over them all day, I talked to my fishing partner and resolved them.
Now, I can get lost in my creativity without anything to distract me.
Self care.
