Today is a long day- full of new beginnings, experiences and emotions.

Morning everyone!
Been an early start to Day 8 as little one was up at 2:30 and then it was only broken sleep after that, ugh. Going to need lots of coffee today. Oldest is off school again today so going to try and do some apple picking later.
Hope you all have a wonderful and sober day!

Morning. Day something or other here. I've lost count. Guess that's a good thing. My allergies are killing me today but I'm hoping my meds kick in soon and take care of that problem.
Remember a drink is not the answer. It's part of the problem. Wishing everyone a great day.

My spin on alcohol at the moment? When I see people at meetings who reflect 'alcohol made me a bad person', I think. I think to myself ' did the alcohol hold a gun to myself and force me to drink it?' Of course not- a useful way to understand and cope with this hellish crap, helps every different person cope with the unfinished business and get on with life stuff. Whatever it takes, what ever works.

Doing ok tonight. Had a great afternoon apple picking at the pumpkin patch. AV has been pretty quiet, but I am worried it will rear it's ugly head tomorrow when my daughter goes back to school. Making a plan now.
Hope everyone is doing well. Hugs to those of you who are struggling. This definitely isn't easy.

I woke up to a snap chat from my son today he is in Germany he had 3 large mugs of beer in front of him, I truly hope he can drink responsibly and enjoy alcohol like most people do.
I feel like drinking I am feeling paralyzed by fear and indecision so I have to keep moving and get things done, I will not drink today.
I needed to get that off my chest

Here- a lovely day. 3 reports of petty thefts- including undies where I reside. However- WILL be a lovely day. SMART meeting am, sponsor steppy stuff pm. Maintaining sanity and living myself- a work in progress.

Morning all. Slept better last night but still feeling triggered....not sure whats causing it - maybe the change in weather....it is much cooler here and so dark in the mornings...anyways just keeping a close eye on it. Well off to work - busy day but that seems to be the theme. Will try to check in periodically throughout the day. ❤️❤️

Hey there Kayak!!
Samantha, you and I must be channelling the same kind of energy lately! Slept better last night myself, but I just have this kind of general anxiousness - I have a lot going on at work, which I think is part of it, but I can't really get my arms around whatever the whole issue is. I hope it passes soon.
Anyway, got my starting' fluid and going to have a nice breakfast. Will check back later - have a great day everyone!!
