Hi everyone, quick check in before I fall asleep.. I'll take another 24 hours of freedom please, freedom from shame, guilt, bad choices and hurt.

Onwards, steady as she goes!

Sending love and warm thoughts to all, thanks to you all for being here!

Peace

6:22 in California and checking in for another 24. It has been raining hard all day in Southern California, definitely going to stay out of drought conditions with our recent weather.

The week has gotten off to a good start here, and spring break is only 14 school days away, not that I'm counting.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Phoenix, your bad jokes always make me laugh. Not sure what that says about either of us!!!

Love to you all ❤️
How did things go today Jeni? Sending lots of love and prayers your way.

Had just a couple yesterday and for some reason went to bed at 3 pm feeling very sad and tired. I knew in my dreams--I dreamed of starting over today. I woke up and smiled. No more. Nothing terrible has to happen to me. Because I don't have to drink today if I don't want to.

Thank you for listening. I am disappointed in myself but don't want to focus on that--instead I want to focus on my first 24. Glad to be back. Going to work soon, then straight home to eat supper and come to the boards. That's my plan today. I have my cell so I can come here all day. Grateful.

I am really glad you are back, and posting. I have been there many times in the past. I felt very much like you when I finally made sobriety stick. Nothing horrible happened, but it was going to if I kept drinking the way I was.

What supports do you have in place?

You've got this Marissa!! Each day will get a little easier, and you never have to do this again. Sending lots of love your way.

Anyway, thats far ahead and all I have is today. I might as well enjoy it. Watched a meaningful video by Jack Thompson, an Australian actor, about the gift of life. I'll post it here for all to enjoy (its short):

Hi,
Yep, it's time to check in again for the next 24. I'm very grateful that I don't feel the need to drown my feelings in bottles of wine anymore. We are still in limbo land re: our moving or not moving. Just have to continue to be patient....

THANKS VC! I just went and got that palm. Emphasise here- there plants are urban weeds to most. I find them growing in cracks and abandoned public laneways- just struggling for life (how dramatic). All the containers I use are recycled. Besides- they are green.
