Love seeing your name on here everyday! Do the dang thing!

Glad you're back gabe. I find meetings so enjoyable now and spent most of the day with my sponsor yesterday, helping her paint the walls of her new business. She also got me my new job that I love. Things get better when you take difficult steps. AA seemed absolutely impossible for the longest. I'm still not that deep in, but looking forward to most meetings and getting to know more people. I've started baking cookies for the Sunday night happy hour and I love watching people get up during the meeting for seconds or thirds

24 hours for this lady please. 9:40am EST and maybe one more cup of coffee

I started step one in the book with my sponsor the next day at a coffee shop. Yes I am out of work until I start my new job on April 2....but also, NO MORE BARTENDING. ever! I'm free!
so, 24 for me please, another meeting tomorrow as well. I'm 4 days sober today but want to eat back in my 24 hour day to day commitment so count it how you see fit. Love y'all
So many hugs and so much love my friend.
And a big apology....I got the wrong end of the stick, didn't read your text properly the other day and I let you down. I'm really sorry. And I love you.

So you have a week off which is so so good as long as it isn't a financial strain. I hope you have beautiful weather and go to some wonderful meetings. And next week when you start your new job you will be sober and happy and feeling good.

I know that was a bad bad night love.....maybe it was the night you needed to have though. It takes what it takes. And now it is your time love.....a whole incredible world out there just waiting for your magic. ♥♥♥

At the gym and about to go in. Hoping a workout will help me feel more balanced.
Hi Sunflower. I think you are doing an amazing job. You are not drinking and that's amazing. Handling all those feelings we don't wanna feel is really tough. Coping through working out is the way to go. Just try and figure out what the feelings are trying to tell you. I've been hiding from mine and from myself. You are brave! You got this. Love to you 💗💗💗

24 more hours please. just finished another hot yoga, which is always intense. I'm easily the most angry yogi in every class. I don't know why the keep letting me come back! Hahahaha
Anyway. Glad to be back and posting and thankful that while not having any money for ten days stinks, I don't ever have to set foot in a working bar environment anytime soon (and hopefully never again). Hour by hour, love you guys

Need another 24 please!

If you're at all like me, the lack of sun today could be affecting you....maybe it's awful there as well, dark and dreary.

We are human love.....we get it wrong sometimes. I know it hurts. But you are doing amazing things.....this was a bad morning....life happens.

Please don't be so hard on yourself.
Hope you enjoy your workout. ♥♥
Thanks Suze. But this morning was really bad. Like out of control bad.

My workout was okay but I got a call when I was leaving the gym from my son's preschool- he is constipated and not himself. I just picked him up and he looks sick so he's home with me.

Just going to keep busy- clean the bathrooms and do some de-cluttering if I can. He is on the sofa getting some rest watching his YouTube shows.

I am learning how to accept my feelings rather than questioning them or trying to resist them. If I can just let my body feel them a little bit and accept them while they arise, it seems like they dissipate on their own. I wish I could have done that this morning (I only did it after the phone call from the school when I started crying again.)

Hope you are having a great day- did you ever get your migraines taken care of?

LOl- I imagined someone cursing while holding yoga poses! I have never done hot yoga but I'm sure it's very intense- good for you!

Glad you got away from the bar scene/work environment. I hope things improve and get easier moving forward without that temptation
