Well done, Marcutah :c011::scoregood:c011:

You may have inflicted a lethal blow to that monster !

I am a going to be a bragging mom tonight. My oldest finished her first year of HS today with straight As, she had a 4.75 GPA this semester. Then she met with her coach after school and he asked her to be the Varsity Cross Country captain next year. She will only be a Sophomore, so definitely a big deal. She is almost four weeks into healing from her stress fracture. She's been running in the pool for two weeks, and will be going for her second anti gravity treadmill run tomorrow.

Okay, no more bragging. Sending love to all.

❤️Delilah

Grab a megaphone, Delilah. What fantastic accomplishments :cheer

Americans are so polite....poor Nick, he has had to adjust. :)
I would be saying: Love, I need some quiet for a while.... :hug:

Although I'm not counting I've figured out I'm almost at a month sober and I've been alright with cravings this time. I suppose I'm just learning to cope with life sober.

I'm sorry I've not been available to everyone here. I've just been overwhelmed and I was finding it really hard to contribute.

I'm hoping that I'll be able to offer more support in the future. I really care about you all xxxx

(((((Gabe))))). It is okay to not talk, honey. What you are doing is HUGE; stating sober is the most important thing; some days it takes ALL we have and that is okay.

We go together, sometimes in silence, but never alone.

And I would like another 24 please, with oodles of love to everyone. ♥

(Sleepy Suze and mixed tenses....oops :))

Always, always, always here for you, Suze!

Love 💜!

Hi everyone. Constantly struggling with my battle with alcohol. I have been really bad... I feel like a zombie. I desperately need this 24 hours.
Already thinking I will fail but I hate waking up the next morning and not able to look at myself . Hate it. Sick of it. Sick of myself

A huge welcome to you, opalblue. So glad that you are with us.

I really just want some time to myself with the dogs. I want my husband to be quiet, he takes everything personally so I have to put on a smile and interact, pretend I don't want to kill the world.

I apologize for the downer post,, really do love you guys.

Badge

I relate Badge!
"Pretend I don't want to kill the world!"
Haha! Yep I really do relate!
Somehow we need to make room for some silence. Absolute healing peace and quiet.
I never knew until I got sober how much I like being alone from time to time to recharge. I love my children and bf and jobs but boy are they draining!
If definitely grab a bit of you-time Badge. Get your lovely dog out for a walk ❤❤❤

My plan is to go for a run as soon as I get home...then drive to a friend's house for coffee. By the time I get back I will be ready to eat dinner...then hopefully its late enough to go to bed.
II think I need to buy chocolate...

Chocolate :c043: always part of a fantastic plan!
