Hi all-
Staying sober today, like all days. I have a cold, or flu or something. Didn't sleep well and looked at myself in the mirror this morning and thought, I used to look worse than that after a night of drinking and I felt worse too. Glad those days are over.

Toots, Sam thank you. If nothing else, I appreciate knowing it's not just me. Day 10 is off and.running. I got some stuff planned out to keep me busy through the day. Nothing exciting, but it all has to get done.

I don't know why but feeling miserable makes me want to eat. So far, I've had 2 muffins and am eyeing up the Halloween candy--this is besides breakfast and lunch...


PS--nice new Avatar, OTM.

Haha. The site avatar pickings are slim. Maybe I won't be so lazy and go find one that fits. For now that one is kinda funny though.

Good idea DDog, I keep my own version of trail mix handy and always take some on the golf course with me.

Sam it's comfort eating, your brain is telling you you deserve to spoil yourself, in the past that would have involved alcohol. Focus on getting better and count it a win

OTM that bird looks like it has attitude! My Avi is my Miss Molly, she as been with me since before I started my road to sobriety and is 13 now. Each year she puts up a festive pic, (which she hates having taken ) wow that must be nearly 10 different photos now!

Started my new temp job this week. Still getting the hang of things. Its keeping me occupied, and bringing in at least some money. Even with the learning curve it is still way less stressful than my last employment which is a huge plus!

It's hugely important you can be happy in the work that you do with it taking up so many of your waking hours and having a real affect on your life outwith the job.

Lowbones, sounds like it's working out for you

Day 108 I pretty much like my job. I've been here 26 years. Started out in the warehouse driving forklift. Moved into assembly repair and now am in quality. My job ranges from inspecting incoming parts to make sure they are in spec to inspecting complete machines before the ship to dealers.

The first time I started feeling old was when I began meeting new hires and found out I was working here before they were born.

Day 214. Was lazy as all get out this weekend. I watched football all weekend. And when I say all weekend I mean from 11 am Saturday to 11pm last night.

It was glorious.
