Thank you all for the congrats, I really do feel proud of myself, I worked hard at training for this, running doesn't come naturally to me and I'm not exactly built for it, so I has never become easy or something I really enjoy, so to keep at it and keep focused was a big thing for me. I will keep running with Molly, but drop back to around 3k a day which we usually do.
FBL awesome anniversary, think of all the sober times you have enjoyed - and remembered!!

Thanks again for all the well wishes. One of the AA chips that my Dad left me was for the six-year mark, so that makes it even more special. SR has been a big part of my recovery and the "overs" thread has been my home group for a long time. Thanks again...you guys 'n' gals are the best

SW-cbt for what? If you don't mind sharing. I want to do that for my anxiety disorders because i refuse pills but i have to find the right doctor.
Toots-regularity is the best for running. have you tried slow pacing? That's what i do and it makes it much easier. Almost meditative.
I think 3k per day is a really nice distance.
Today i guess the saga will continue at work. I've decided that I'm going to not say another word about but start looking around for something else. Too bad but i refuse to work for a company that disrespects me. Maybe that's a flaw of mine. But lifes too short.
Fbl that's nice about the six year chip. Glad you're here.
I'm happy right now. Thinngs are going well with the Friend Who Is A Man. I feel healthy. I'm excited about where life is going.

FBL that is really cool about your dad's six year chip. Very special.
Soberwolf good for you for seeking out the CBT. I hope you get a perfect fit. I've had a couple really good therapists over the years and lucky for me some of their wisdom has stuck with me.
IP good for you for looking for new work. I made the mistake of staying in a place that was all wrong but just complain and fight until I got fired. I have yet to need to explain that to a prospective employer but am anxious when the time comes for that.
It's been a good day today so far. The same cannot be said for yesterday, but that is now yesterday, which is in the past. I don't think any frustrations or feelings that I'm having are abnormal for being a first time mostly stay at home mom. It's hard to remember that in the moment of said frustrations or despair. But luckily a good day comes along and I feel more at peace.
Hope everyone is doing well.

I like the six year chip, Fbl.
I've got a slight dilemma. Went to feed the chickens for neighbour who's on holiday and she has a lovely fish pond with quite big coy carp. Well on the way out of the garden I saw a big carp in a tub, dead. I don't know if it jumped out and died or what or when? It had rigormortis.
I've left it in the bucket but feel awful that I can't do anything. I wasn't asked to feed the fish but I feel bad that I haven't done enough. Don't like to text to let her know as there isn't anything she can do. I'm being daft, I know, but that's how I am. I can't bring it back to life and feel really bad.

I don't like to disturb her holiday. If she contacts me for some reason I will let her know. Thanks wolfie.
I'm on anti depressants, wolfie, they've helped me, I hope you get sorted with the help you're going to have.
