To say that the place we live now is not culturally diverse would be a huge understatement, and I don't want to risk them feeling embarrassed or anything. Then again, I also want to teach them to be themselves and not conform. Tough call!
Hey I was on day one again a couple of weeks ago. Don't get too down about it. The important thing is that you're on here talking about it. The sober days you've had still count. That's one of the things I learned from this class that has helped motivate me. I forget who said it. It's really easy to get depressed when you screw up, but you've got to remember you are on the right track. You could just say screw it and not care anymore.
I don't go to any meetings so you should also be proud of yourself that you have and that you plan on going to more.
Hey I can only assume you like Halloween as much as I do It's my favorite. ANd that's something I'm using as motivation. I feel like I've got a few good months to get in good shape inside and out to rock an awesome costume. And if I'm a good girl for a few months I feel like I might just deserve to buy a super special one. Maybe that's something you could consider as well.
That is a good idea, about Halloween! Yes, I love it too. BTW, it's almost 100 days until Halloween!!
Like tomorrow. Or, in some odd hours....

Yeah it's a tough call, on the hair/individuality thing. I would say just go for it, but, I live in a pretty liberal place so it's easier said than done.

So I haven't been to any sobriety meetings yet - it was other meetings I had been going to (for all my other issues, haha). But tomorrow I'm talking to my counselour, and shall explain all... see if I can find a good group to go to (I have a list of a bunch of them... kinda overwhelming) and maybe meetup with someone before the meeting, or something like that.

So if I'm going to count sober days since I started, then I believe I am at 85!!! Holy frick!!!

Well.... wow. I actually feel kind of proud of myself. Just.... wow. Thanks!! I feel much better now. That is 85 days that I haven't touched booze. That is great.
