24 hours more please on the most miserable day (wearherwise) here in London. Feels like it'll never stop pouring, and it seems to rev up a not whenever I have to go out!.

Congratulations to all those impressive milestoners (and Delilah for moving seriously closer and closer to 4 years).

VoVo - so sorry to read your news. Hospices tend to be exceptionally caring places but I recognise that may not seem like much consolation right now.

A bit of a late check-in but well I'll commit to 24 hours of sobriety and clean time at 1602 CDT

Bromine? Maybe in a swimming pool? Sometimes it's used with or instead of chlorine.

Miss my cat...but I'm sure he's doing good.
Posted all the photos I had of Chloe, the neighbor's dog, on Facebook.
Payday in a few days and I've been having some dry drunk thinking.
Not today though.
Peace out!

Evening everyone, I’ll take another 24 if I may.

Still struggling with emotions and feelings but I don’t need to drink or use on it.

I felt slightly underwhelmed with my 1 year anniversary of stopping the madness of cocaine use, like what did I expect, trumpets and a parade of rainbow unicorns?

I feel really uneasy at the moment, barely slept last night and was up for work at 6 this morning. Hoping for a better night tonight, it’s coming up to 10.30 pm here, raining slightly and I’m grateful for the heating being on and my fresh pyjamas keeping me cosy.

Trying very hard to stay present, not relive the past or project too much into the future.

Had a long talk with my stepdad tonight and he said that he sees the real me, the old me before I became unrecognisable to him. I don’t recognise myself.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of self pity, tonight I pray for those I love and for the guidance I need to make the right choices. I’ve made a lot of bad ones.

Thank you so much. It’s been a terrible year. But I am still making it to work, and somehow taping things together . I like to collapse on my bed with tea and books,
SR, games...can’t let myself get too sad. I have these bursts of energy where I can remember which bills are due, can clean and exercise, and the rest of the time I drag. I don’t want to beat myself over it. It’s survival mode. I’m sober. Going to get through and enjoy life again—it’s the way of life.

So glad you are here-thank you so much. I’m feeling lonely so I need to hang out.


Xxxxx

Prayers for you and your mum Iced Vovo. You will get through this .... And remember to be kind to yourself whilst you're going through this. Wish I could do something to help you. Sending you a hug xxxx

And I really wish I could organise the trumpets and rainbow unicorns for you James. One year free of cocaine is a tremendous achievement and don't be disheartened by the lack of unicorns. Leave it with me. If there are any rainbow unicorns to be found, I'm gonna find them. I like the sound of these rainbow unicorns, can you tell? And that talk you had with your step dad sounds awesome. You've got a lot to feel very proud about, James.

I saw Ekhart Tolle at the Royal Albert Hall this evening. Incredible night. And it was sold out. So fantastic to be with so many like-minded souls, all in the same place. He's an incredible speaker, I've got so much to think about. And one thing he said really hit home ...he was talking about how we use our phones as an extension of our minds and suddenly I realised.... I look at my phone far too much. Way too much. I'm not on Facebook or Instagram or Snapchat or Twitter or any of those other things I don't understand but I am addicted to BBC news. I check the news all the time. It's not healthy and it's going to stop. I'm going to try to moderate because BBC news isn't alcohol so maybe it's possible to moderate my news consumption. I'll soon see. My plan is to look at the news twice tomorrow for 10 minutes max. If I can't stick to that, I might have to stop looking at it altogether. I'll see how I go. Ekhart Tolle said so many brilliant things and over the next few days I'll try to remember things he said and share it here. Love to everyone and 24 more for me please xxxx

Yeah me too Whopper; it’s 75 in Oct?? Who’d thought that? But I’d rather be in shorts than sweat pants or jeans! Speaking of which, I gotta return two ASAP coz they are uncomfortable & wouldn’t wear em no matter how cold it gets
Things didn’t flow today as I would have wanted so had to restart my day @ least five times! It’s so good to know we can meditate, pray & choose to have a nice day coz it’s really our choice
24 mo
