Thanks Dee :)

24 more,

I am not wearing clown shoes either

PhoenixJ 04-16-2018 03:33 PM

Neoo- your post woke me up (well no).
You have grown - your words show this. Just remember....or so I remind myself a zillion,million,million times a day...
My past and drinking show a me that was not the real me. THAT person was not a bad person doing bad things that damaged others. I am NOT a bad person who wants to be a good person.
I was very, very unwell. I was sick..and the addiction I have (note- NOT HAD!!!) for alcohol means when I drank, I was did bad stuff. Add all the depression etc.

I am well now...and harm no one- and even sometimes do a little good.

Neoo 04-16-2018 03:43 PM

Good post Phoenix :) I’m a good person myself but not when I drink mate...I’m beat time for some shut eye nite nite :grouphug:

What a day. Sometimes I seriously feel like we live in a zoo. I don’t know what is going on lately but the kids have been bouncing off the walls and just getting through dinner time at the table is absolute torture. We are seriously considering splitting them up and having them eat in different rooms, that’s how out of control it has become. I know it’s just a phase or the planets or god knows what but man, it’s taking a toll on my husband’s patience and of course on mine as well.

Anyway. It was too rainy to paint the patio so I will have to do it tomorrow if the weather permits. I ran errands all day and am happy to be lying in bed next to my snoring toddler. He is so lovely when he’s sleeping lol. No really, why are kids so adorable when they are sleeping? I just want to capture this peace and innocence in a bottle.

I might get in bed and read until 9. Goodnight sober friends...

Rainman1 04-16-2018 07:02 PM

Had a challenging yet great work day yest but was too tired to post. Wouldn’t have summed it up that way even a yr ago; a coworker who’s not even a Sup or mgr speaks condescendingly to me all the time & I’m not exaggerating! As I’ve mentioned before, I’m @ a different bldg coz help is needed there. But I’m the kind of guy whose not ashamed to ask how something is done if I don’t know. Anyway, I did & on top of that a stack of totes fell when was twenty feet up. So he came to find out about it coz he’s quite a distance from it & in response I just killed him with kindness. As I left to go home, he said bye & will see me on Thur!! Huh? What? Never said that to me & not that I stooped to his level, but I believe coz dude @ my normal bldg mostly helped me get where I’m @. Honestly believe that work place is training ground for me since I live alone. All cred & glory belongs to Him coz there’s no way I would respond not react as do today.

Really, really great to see you, Grateful11.

Welcome back.

Gabe1980 04-16-2018 10:04 PM

Early morning for me today! 24 please and it's 6.02am here in Orkney.

I'm so happy to be back to my first week sober again. It feels like the most important week. Congratulations to all who are celebrating milestone today.

Love to you all and have a good day 💗💗

Delilah1 04-16-2018 10:27 PM

10:23 pm in California and checking in for another 24. My husband usually does the taxes, I kept asking him if we were done yet, and no we were not. Since they are due tomorrow I spent several hours finishing them tonight, and will finalize tomorrow. I am frustrated with him because he has had months, and said he was going to do them, and every time I asked he said he'd finish.

We are going to owe money. Which stinks, but it will not be as bad as we thought, and I will set up a payment plan with state and federal to make those payments. I am really not a fan of the IRS today (or any day for that matter)

Have a great night everyone.

❤️Delilah
