In the meantime, you're sober and that's a positive to focus and congratulate yourself on. You're awesome!!!!!

I'm half way through Day 2 and I'm glad I didn't drink last night! I completely forgot I had to complete an online certificate for one of my classes today--listening to modules and reading/answering heaps of questions with a hangover (or brain fog) would have been torture!! ... ... Isn't it funny how drinking consumes us and we 'forget' other things we're supposed to be doing (or completing)? Weird!
Anyway, that was just a midday thought from a Day Two-er. I hope everyone is having a great day! I just got home and will relax for a bit, make dinner, then try to make myself go for a jog. I'll check in, again, later on today.

I'll start 3 days and move up to 5 as soon as my ligaments and tendons heal from getting back into it.
Sober since 29th March 2016.

Hi Classmates! I'm sort of healing from this weird flue and the interesting thing is that my smell and taste circuits seem to be sharpened. Anybody experienced something like that? My tendons are less noisy and I feel like they softened somehow.,thanks to the high fever? Who knows... I still experience negative repetitive thinking and some short rage and impatience episode. A hug to you all!!! Night night :-)

Morning and Hi to the new arrivals.....welcome all.
Something that is great about this class.....we don't seem to be losing people. It is encouraging to see that whatever happens people come back, climb back on. That takes a lot of courage, self knowledge and determination. I really admire anyone who can get straight back up after a relapse. That is way harder than staying sober for another 24 hours. Respect to you.
A lot here today about relationships and marriages.....can't really contribute much to that. I'm kind of at the stage of comfortable single guy. Date a bit, travel.....but for the moment at least, kind of beyond the kind of constant negotiation of relationships.
So it seemed like a good time to get sober. So if I did get involved again it wouldn't be a 3 way thing between two people and a chemical.
Anyway.
Good day everyone
Later...

Sad, but true.
Anyways, he upset me last night pretty bad. But instead of drinking over it, (and I didnt even want to, still too sick from last binge) I got out of the house for awhile. Sat at the park, and watched all the Normal people, with normal lives. So, that's a good start for me. Just get the heck away from here. Im sad today, my life is nothing like I ever expected it to be. But, then I failed to plan, I didnt plan to fail.
Just sharing the thoughts Im having this morning.
