Class of March 2016 part 48
Worn out and nothing has changed. Just checked and it's been 152 days now. Time is just going by so fast, not necessary a good thing. It is as in I'm not drinking and my number is getting biggger . But it isn't because nkt much has changed in this whole time. I'm kind of st a stand still. Stuck doing the same thing everyday again but it's all good stuff. Working has been good for me but I'm just sooo busy. I'm missing school things now and not checking email or eating healthy. I'm nkt drinking and glad that didn't change. Need to check in to remind myself to nkt get lost again. Now j need to. E strong and just say no to the before bed bowl of cereal.(verry big bowl) hahaha
Keets - cereal b4 bed- very Seinfeld. You have done something different, there is change- you are not drinking. Mountains erode- grain by grain, so change seems to me that slow. BUT it is still change.
Morning! Man I just can never sleep in...blech.
No real plans (again) today. Maybe the gym and some job hunting. Back to work Thursday so I'd better enjoy being bored while I can!
Happy Tuesday everyone!

Didn't sleep good last night. Work all day/night today. Those first two sentences are not a great combination. But good thing about being at work so long is it means I can't drink. Won't drink. I'm not doing that anymore.
Have a good day, all.
Have a good day, all.
Have a great day, Casey.
Good luck job hunting, Sam!
BBG - tomorrow it cherry cobbler day - whip some up for us.
Purple - I sent in an application for National Awesome Day (my birthday). I'll do it again. I think we need National Awesome Day.

Not a good combo Casey. But you are aware so it shouldn't be a problem for a guy like you! Hang in there!!!
Self Love
"I woke up this morning and I had a hard time for a while," said one recovering man. "Then I realized it was because I wasn't liking myself very much." Recovering people often say: I just don't like myself. When will I start liking myself?
The answer is: start now. We can learn to be gentle, loving, and nurturing with ourselves. Of all the recovery behaviors we're striving to attain, loving ourselves may be the most difficult, and the most important. If we are habitually harsh and critical toward ourselves, learning to be gentle with ourselves may require dedicated effort.
But what a valuable venture!
By not liking ourselves, we may be perpetuating the discounting, neglect, or abuse we received in childhood from the important people in our life. We didn't like what happened then, but find ourselves copying those who mistreated us by treating ourselves poorly.
We can stop the pattern. We can begin giving ourselves the loving, respectful treatment we deserve.
Instead of criticizing ourselves, we can tell ourselves we performed well enough.
We can wake up in the morning and tell ourselves we deserve a good day.
We can make a commitment to take good care of ourselves throughout the day.
We can recognize that were deserving of love. We can do loving things for ourselves.
We can love other people and let them love us.
People, who truly love themselves do not become destructively self-centered. They do not abuse others. They do not stop growing and changing. People who love themselves well, learn to love others well too. They continually grow into healthier people, learning that their love was appropriately placed.
Today, I will love myself. If I get caught in the old pattern of not liking myself, I will find a way to get out.

Checking in this afternoon. Have been to the gym, to the park with Charlie and now just drinking some iced tea on the patio. Good day. Making chicken stir fry for dinner and avoiding the Birthday Cake Oreo Ice Cream Sandwiches in the freezer... lol. I want to eat them all but think I will stick to Tofutti.
Casey - hope work is okay today
BBG - cobbler sounds yummy!!
Hi Keets!
Bobbie - sea monkeys are very cute...I remember having them as pets when I was a kid. Better than the pet rock. Lol
To anyone else who hasn't checked in in a while - we are here and we love you!! ❤️❤️
