Good morning 24s -. I'm ALL in.

Yay Milestoners -- that's some serious sober time!!

Vivid drinking dreams here too caused in part by taking cough syrup with codeine. I hate the way it makes me feel but I am slowly getting better.
Agree with PJ....dreams can't hurt us!

Hugs, peace, strength & love to all.....xxxx

Checking in for another 24. Felt better to sleep in this morning. This cold has been knocking me down. Hopefully it clears soon.

Congrats to all milestoners!

Welcome back Michael!

I'll take another 24hrs, feels so good to have one week under my belt. 3.30pm in a very grey Dublin.

Logging on here and reading all the lovely messages of support makes all the difference so thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Just getting used to the new sober and productive me, just vacuumed and washed the floors from top to bottom while playing my favourite music. I may have even danced a little - doing it last week I was a sweating mess!

Hope you are all well x

Count me in, please.

I'm not sure how far I will be able to read today; we have arrived but have a ton of things to do.

Love to all.

Leigh

7:42 on Saturday and I am checking in for another 24. Need to get ready to head to the soccer field. My little guy made All Stars, and today they have two games. The competition is definitely tough, so it will be a good experience for the team.

Congratulations to all celebrating a milestone today!

Have a great day everyone!!!

❤️Delilah

I had nearly four years sober, and then was tempted to have 'an evening of a few beers'. That 'evening' has lasted the best part of a year. I've wasted money, time, and energy - giving up something so good and precious for the sake of beer and alcohol. So I'm feeling humbled with somewhat of a sense of failure, but also I see a glimpse of new light again. I'm 8 days in to sobriety again. I hate these early days and weeks but know they will pass.

I really appreciate this place. I just wish I had come here when I needed to last year. Perhaps I knew what I would hear and wanted to pretend things were different. This time I'll stay close to help.

I did come back as 'emjay2017' a few days ago. I think I was a bit ashamed to come back as me, but I realise now that was unnecessary and a bit daft.

I have a stinking cold as well. I promise not to drink today, but I can't promise not to be grumpy!

It sort of is lovely to see such a great crowd again though. SR is a very special place.

Michael (aka emjay 2017)
Michael,

Welcome back! So glad you are here with us again!!!

❤️Delilah

Delilah, I think I have gained ten pounds from all those cake things you keep posting! Thank you! I think I'll not drink or use for 24 more hours. Tom

My cataract surgery is tomorrow.

Hope to check in, in the morning beforehand.

Will be off the computer for a week or so until I get the other done and then samo, samo.

Keep on keeping on and stay the course!

Sending love and Prayers to all of you.

Nite, nite.
Hope all is well with both of you, dearest Kris.

Sending love.
