Class of December 2020 Part 2
Congrats on 38 days Velvetee Hope your sleep improves soon.
I think most of this class are in Aus It's great to read all your morning posts just as I am about to go to sleep
Great you are sleeping well and healing Zura I hope you have a lovely day.
So day nearly finished here in the stormy Scotland. Had an odd day. Felt sluggish and headachy (sorry I always seem to be complaining about some ailment ) Strange day at work, nothing was working, internet down-amazing how much we rely on it!! Read some of my book when I got home and made plans for Xmas Eve with Jr Ral and Mr Ral. We play board games in the afternoon and this year there will be no alcohol.
Take care all whether at the start or the end of the day.x

Good morning to all!
Apologies for the quick post, just at work and posting from my phone, will endeavour to post tonight after work to reply to your posts. For anyone struggling, I’m sending you hugs and encouragement.
Day 2 off to a good start. Felt like dog poo yesterday and regretted my decision from the night before but slept ok and feeling brighter today. I know the next few days to the next week will have anxiety filled moments and I’m just going to recognise that it’s my withdrawal and that whatever narrative my AV is spinning is just bologna and that the wheeling and dealing is just a ploy to convince me it’s ok to drink, which it isn’t.
Hugs! And if you’re not a huggy sort of person then I’m sending a comforting hand on your shoulder or a fist bump or a thunk on the head, whatever works
have a great evening, morning, afternoon!!! Xx

Morning all,
I do hope everyone is ok. This is the first morning I've logged in and there have been no posts overnight. I hope everyone is busy and doing lots of things.
If people are drinking or struggling please check in.we are all here for you.How is everyone getting on with the run up to Christmas? We are not having an office lunch this year. Sure plenty of places won't be having parties and lunches and things so that is 1 less temptation at least.
Day 11. A wild and stormy morning in the northern hemisphere. But we will be positive. Slept well. Plenty to do at work today. Still eating well and starting to lose inches, if not pounds. Planning for the my days off this week.
Take care everyone,x

Hi Ral, all...
Well, I'm one who hasn't posted today.....
Some days I dont always feel I have much to contribute other than pushing the 'thanks' button.
Sober life is pretty quiet and often there isn't a lot to report.
The sober life days tend to revolve around walking, working, household stuff, movies and playing on the laptop at night....I'm fortunate that work is an always varied thing and working from a home office as a solo act means hours and activities are self directed. This isn't always a good situation if you don't want to be sober.....I can just slip off for days and have done. So try to keep a daily routine.... Christmas is something thats happening out there....try and steer clear of it, but am looking forward to a 'holiday'.....ie: some workshop time.
Just kickin' along really. Reading a fair bit. Cooking dinners at night and grinding up coffee in the mornings.
All the usual stuff.
Ok....I'm off to get something happening in the kitchen. Could use some new recipes.

Day 30
Good Morning from the UK. I’m happy to report in sober and grateful. Nothing more to contribute today I’m afraid other than glad to be present in my own life again.
Stay strong. Stay safer. Stay sober.

Sober and grateful Liz checking in as well. I have my last exam tomorrow, so I'll be studying all day. DD1 is already here, DD2 is coming on Friday, bonus DD on Sunday and DS on Tuesday. So much for a relaxed, stress free Christmas.
Off to find my books!

I know the feeling, RAL. Whenever a member of our class goes AWOL I worry. But I'm OK, on day 19 I think. My partner and I were talking last night, how proud we are of ourselves for doing this. Can't wait for the kids to see that we are able to have a nice Christmas without alcohol.

Day 16, checking in. Slept, actually, pretty decent last night. Probably the best sleep so far been super tired the lady few days, so i am glad that happened. Other than that, kinda sticking to the same routine day to day, keeps things simple for now.
I good everyone has a good sober Wednesday

Good morning all,
I hope you feel better soon RAL, migraines are awful. Still trying to get to know everyones names and keep track. It helps I recognise a few people from my time on SR in previous times.
Today is a danger day for me so I will be staying close, posting if I hit a difficult craving. Decided not to give up smoking, coffee, sugar at the same time as alcohol but will review regularly.
I hope everyone is traveling well and hope to hear from those who are having difficulties too.
