Yes I did phoebe Iove. Hmmm. Not wanting to give anything away, but hmm. (Head scratching smiIie)

Hmmmm is right. 😉. I liked the cast overall. Being a British show, they were not familiar to me.

I'm a week away from 4 months sober, and it really is hard to believe. I only made it this far once before because I was pregnant. I've been having mostly good days, but still dealing with stomach issues I need to see a doctor about. Oh and the insomnia persists.

My daughter turns 4 in a few days which is also hard to believe. I'm glad that i'm going to be sober for this, and I want to be sober every birthday from now on. I have an amazing chance to continue like this, and have a healthy relationship with her as she grows up. My cravings for alcohol have been infrequent, but when the last one popped up I immediately thought why give in? Life could have been like this all along. Everything in my life for years revolved around where I could get alcohol, or what I could sell/odd jobs I could do to make money to buy it. I'm free from that now, and even though I still have so far to go it's a great feeling.

I haven't had much time to be around lately, but I hope you're all doing well.

Hi,
Had a rough couple of weeks after several weeks sober but today will be day 1. Reflecting, what I was doing was working. Then I stopped doing it and drinking was the result. So today I start again. Checking in daily on SR and going to a SMART meeting this evening.

Hope everyone is ok

Morning all. I’m exhausted. I’ve been keeping crazy, irregular hours trying to schedule a vaccine, no lie. It’s impossible, unless you try after midnight or at 5:30am, and still impossible. I’m shelving the effort today, and taking a nap later. It’s not good for my recovery to be sleeping poorly and exhausted. Seems to trigger cravings. I can wait, but it’s more a determination to get it done. I’m stubborn that way. Also, those that finally get through and figure out the best time/way to get appointments are assisting others. I was hoping I might do that...help older folks get their appointments. Not today, lol. Well, not anymore today because was awake at 6:30.

Sorry you're having a tough time getting an appt Phoebe. I hope it happens soon. My sleep is off too from staying up too late and then the usual monkey mind stuff. Can't turn my brain off at bedtime sometimes.

phoebe64

Funny, SS, I just posted in our February group about “monkey mind.” I like that phrase! Sobriety definitely brings us more awake, alert brain time, hopefully for better, but sometimes it’s still trying to figure out how to modulate thoughts, feelings, and sleep cycles.

That's so weird, we talked about that yesterday. Strange. We just finished watching "Behind her eyes", I found it too predictable, but I enjoyed it.

ReaIIy? That was predictabIe? s xx

RAL

Thanks venus. Good to see you and hope you are ok.

Day 1 completed. Off to bed soon.x

From episode 5 I had a pretty good idea about it, yes. But remember, I am a writer, and I am trained in finding out how to throw people off track.
Is there a spoiler tag here? Found it!
