7:15 am and I'm ALL in for another 24.
Congratulations to everyone celebrating a Milestone!!
Pebbles, So glad you came right back here! Sending you lots of Hugs and Love!!
You CAN do this.
In my sobriety, it took me a Long time to learn about setting boundaries with toxic people but now each time I stand my ground, I feel strong and free. It happened again yesterday and I was amazed at how right it felt. This WILL happen for YOU some day. Really, it will. xxxx
Weev, Hugs and support to you as you deal with your financial situation! xxxx
At 20.5 months I'm just beginning to see at tiny pin ***** of light at the end of my financial mess tunnel. It feels right to deal with it head on.
Glad you're ok Yukon!
Hugs, peace, strength and love to everyone sick, struggling, caring for someone or grieving......xxxx

Good morning fellows travelers
24 more for this zombie of alcoholic.
Healing
We should learn not to grow impatient with the slow healing process of time. We should discipline ourselves to recognize that there are many steps to be taken along the highway leading from sorrow to renewed serenity... We should anticipate these stages in our emotional convalescence: unbearable pain, poignant grief, empty days, resistance to consolation, disinterestedness in life, gradually giving way . . . to the new weaving of a pattern of action and the acceptance of the irresistible challenge of life.
—Joshua Loth Liebman
Recovery is a process. It is a gradual process, a healing process, and a spiritual process - a journey rather than a destination.
Just as codependency takes on a life of its own and is progressive, so recovery progresses. One thing leads to another and things - as well as us - get better.
We can relax, do our part, and let the rest happen.
Today, I will trust this process and this journey that I have undertaken.

Here for another 24 hours of freedom. Yesterday I celebrated the mark of my longest stretch of sobriety- 4 months and 8 days. Last year I relapsed at 4 months and 7 days and my old therapist told me the clock doesn't restart until I make it to 4 months and 8 days. Well, it took me 16 months but I finally did it. No more relapses in my future as my commitment is real this time.
Feeling decent today despite a head cold that is running through the family. Both boys are in school and I am finally able to breathe a bit. Still working on not panicking in the mornings when I am alone with both of them- I have a long way to go on that one but I'm trying.
Congrats to everyone celebrating and hugs to those suffering. Love to all...

Please continue praying for those who are still dealing with effects of this massive hurricane.

I can taste vodka. I can smell vodka. And it's stomach churning.

If anyone is even thinking of picking up today. Please don't. Wouldn't wish this feeling on my worst enemy. Stay strong all. Love...and more love. Xx
