4 WEEKS TODAY!!! Wow, I can't believe I made it. I feel great! I'm still stewing a bit about my neighbors, but I'll get over it. Today is a perfect day!!!

Day 11 and I feel good, though tired. Hope everybody's having a good day. I just returned home from work, think i will just chill out with a movie, feel so tired, but in a good way, knowing i did a good effort at work today. Tomorrow I have another AA meeting in my neighbour city's group

PippoRossi - maybe it helps to picture something ludicrous like, say, the grounds of the White House or some other stately residence, if those neighbours pruned it their way

Wishing you all a happy day xx

Hahahaha! That's awesome! Or like the Japanese Gardens in Portland, Oregon where they pull errant weeds with tweezers!

Sorry your garden was damaged in the hail, SimplyFree - hope no other harm done? - I've seen some photos of holes punched through car windshields etc.
Take care.

PippoRossi and LittleSongBird - congratulations!! That's awesome! You're doing great!

Day 19 for me... No cravings, but restless at night, don't know what to do with myself sometimes. So much time on my hands now, but sometimes I don't feel like doing anything. Trying to embrace these feelings too, maybe I don't have to do stuff all the time. It's ok to rest too. So relieved I no longer have "the internal debate" over whether I should or shouldn't have a drink... The mental obsession was the worst part for me!!! Now, time to get to work. Hope everyone has been doing well!! Happy Tuesday!

Today is day 13 for me. No real major cravings going on at all.

For some reason yesterday after work I got a headache, after meds and all I went to bed and still had one in the morning. I am not sure if this is a delayed withdrawal symptom or what. I have had no other suspected symptom for over a week.

Hello April. Sorry for not posting more frequently, but it's been a busy week. Fortunately, I'm still in the game, and my day ends with 15 days of sobriety under my belt.

However, I need to be more consistent with my daily recovery work, so to that end I'll try to be more active here.

Peace

Well done on 25 days SimplyFree. ST, you're only a day away from two weeks.

I'm just starting Day 17 and I'm staying strong for now.

Have a great Thursday everyone.

Peace.
