Fish that is so great that your are going to ask your doctor about programs and that you have some coverage to pay for it! Wow! That could be totally life changing for you. Keep us posted please!

Everyone feeling down or stressed - stay vigilant! Sobriety is the most important thing - more important than productivity at this point.

Laying in bed and I have to start getting ready for this exam. It's this afternoon. I'll check in afterward!

I wish you luck! But you don't need it because you are resilient.
I wish you strength! But you already have it.
I wish you the tools to make it happen.....doh, there they are too.

You are awesome Fish.

Go for it, Renarde! You can do it!

Yay for all stacking up those days one day at a time!

I actually felt so blah on Monday that I couldn't even force myself to go to work. Not depressed, just burnt out. Lay on the couch all day,playing games on my laptop and did a load of laundry.

Lots of ups and downs this past month and I think I just needed a "mental health" day to recharge my batteries. I think it's normal in early recovery.

Haven't done my workouts (besides walking to work) in over a week now either. Starting to miss them.

Feeling like an idiot today. I volunteer with the courts helping children and am expected to appear in court from time to time. Totally missed a court appearance this morning and got a call asking where I am. Feel very bad and embarrassed.

It was an honest mistake UI. It happens.

We all do those things. I'm trying real hard not to get so embarrassed over stuff like that anymore. Life is too short.

Oh, no, UI! At least it was not due to a hangover! But I undestand that you feel badly about that.

MB - can you do something fun today....something that you will really enjoy?

Shhh...I'm thinking about skipping out of work early to go see that new George Clooney movie "Gravity". George in space....yum. (Sorry men...just had to say it.)

No. I was at work when I got the call. I just didn't have it on my calendar. I was actually supposed to submit a report a week before so I guess I missed that too. This was something I volunteered for last time I was sober and it was difficult keeping up with it when I relapsed. Never missed court while still drinking. Hard to explain this miss.
