Class of September 2015 Part 5
I'm doing good..doing the deal with recovery. Gotta take the good with the bad, part of it! Been with the bad now time to let that go and come back to the good! Was surprised that nobody has posted here in quite a while. Well longer than normal. Glad to see you Arbor! (hug)!
Posted yesterday. It's definitely not a very active class as I am part of an original class in 2014 that is still very much active.
Yep. The good and the bad. It's all part of this big thing we call life! The good part is though even when it's bad there's always hope. You can't get that from a bottle.

Rough day here. Angry, my bones are killing me, bosses wife pissed me off. I pulled cash out for a beverage. Then I got PISSED that I felt that way. This is a quiet class. I feel like the loner chirping in a corner.

Hi guys
Sorry I never post here anymore. I get really behind with what's happening here and get intimidated to check in. I post in a lot of other threads though
Life is good here. Calm, quiet, sober. I really can't complain about anything. Thoughts of drinking come to me out of habit.....I kind of observe them and know there isn't a single reason to indulge them. I've been here before.....know the deal. My health is more important to me than any drink.

I still stop in and check on everyone! Don't feel lonely 3wolves...we are still here..I been dealing with some stuff that hit me like a truck and got me down, but I'm demanding myself to stop that pity party and get better. There's no need for it and I can't put my finger on what happened so I must've made it up. My crazy mind does that some times. I am better a lot better this morning.
I'll check in after whilE. Gotta get ready for the work thing!

Hi all,
I'm here but I'm drinking again, I kidded myself that moderation was ok, so every Saturday...
Somehow this week turned out to be Saturday, Wednesday, Thursday and now Friday....
I'm writing this just incase it inspires you guys to keep going.
I'm making promises to myself and breaking them really quickly...
I'll be back with you, but not yet....
Sorry : ((((

Fuzzy my advice is not to waste another second on a way of life you know is not for you.
Don't listen to your AV it will never be 'ready' to let you go....there will never be a 'good' time to quit.
The longer you put this off the harder it's going to be. Get tough with yourself, and stop being carried along like a leaf in the gutter.
you can do this!

Not yet Fuzzy? I know what it's like to be in it committed to drinking. It's hard to stop that cycle and train of thought. You know it doesn't work. Something's gotta give. Just put it down and start with day one. Take it from there a day at a time.
You're not shackled to not drinking, you're free from drinking

Wow, I missed a lot here. ForeverFuzzy, please listen to the others and start a new day 1. You know things will just get worse. We've all fallen for that moderation stuff. And as you know, it doesn't turn out well. Learn from it and start a new sober day. Will you do that?

Well gotta get this class active! I'm almost done with 55 days sober. I'm doing pretty good. Very little activity from the AV. I just finished reading Allen Carr's The Easy Way to Control Alcohol. It was interesting and what they say "take what you need and leave the rest".
Nice jd. I read Allen Carrs "Easy way to stop drinking." I'm sure there are similarities as he's written a lot of the same type book.
I'm right there with you jd. Next weekend will be two months. Never going back.

Spent the afternoon watching my peeps. Two days ago, our autistic grandson sustained a mild concussion. 48 hour window passed, so I played with them while parental units grabbed a nap. It felt AMAZING to be sober, present and able to help. Perfect encouragement for me to hold on to when I my village starts wanting a drink. The hug that sweet boy gave me....sister drove cars in a video game with her Papa in the back room. Good stuff.
I have actually craved a drink this last two days. Then got so mad at myself for EVEN DARE have that conversation. When I get so mad I cry....poor Mr3 sure didn't know what to think! He came back in from replacing a window in the greenhouse to crying, angry wet hen. He is a doll, actually. Lord knows his support is important to my sobriety.
