I'm at a month on Friday. Last weekend just had my first vivid nightmare. Its brought up a lot of emotions. Guess its part of my healing regardless if I like it or not.

Went out with my wife for a walk and the three kids on their bicycles. It's a beautiful day here. On the way home I looked up into the blue sky and suddenly the AV said, "Oh I just can't wait to sit by the pool with a beer." Ugh. Got through it just fine but it angered me that it got into my groove! I told it to shut-up because I was busy enjoying the blue sky and a wonderful walk with my family.

dig 1
AV 0

^^^ for those keeping score at home lol

I should add it was a social distancing friendly outing too. The kids met some friends at the ends of driveways and yelled to each other and caught up on life. It was so cute to see them catching up with friends. It's sad to see them like this.

Count me in for that. I would love to drill my AV right in the face. I know that's against the rules probably but I'm willing to do it. Is there a penalty box in Dodgeball? LOL.

Hi all. Count me in for Sober April. Day 3 today. I was doing really well this year being sober. My Gran passed in the first week of March and I have just totally been on the struggle bus since then. I have great hopes for this month though.

Sounds like a really nice evening, dig. And dodgeball with the AV is one of the best visual tools I’ve ever heard of . I’m going to use that!

Hi Venus ❤️

Hi citrus, great job on day 3. I am so very sorry about your grandma.

Forgot to mention, the funniest thing about my AV's suggestion about having a beer by the pool when summer arrives is that beer isn't?/wasn't? even my drink of choice. It tried to sneak one by me by presenting a nice and cool refreshing picture. It ought to have ended up with a dodge-ball in the face!!! I still won though.
