Day 3 check in

On day 3 with no alcohol or cigarettes. Going to the beach and reading today. I have found exercise helps me the most and meetings remind me how I am not alone. I am visiting my dad and he drinks every night. I stayed home and he stayed out drinking last night. It is amazing how alcoholics choose booze over everything else. Happy Saturday everyone.

Congrats--just ending day 3 myself. Jealous that you're off cigarettes, too, I decided to wait til around day 5 (which may be a bad choice because then its at least 10 days of bad stuff).

Good luck on your continued recovery

I was wondering where you went. How did your papers turn out Acheleus? It is good to see you back. Congrats on day 3. Meetings really do help people to feel less alone, i agree. Welcome Back!

Thanks Miz. I got As and I have a class to take in June. Feeling good about quitting and I want to stay on SR. It's raining so I am off to do second hand book shopping.

Sounds like a great plan today! I love second hand anything shopping. Good to hear of your grades! I am very impressed. I know that it took a lot out of you to get those papers done. Class in june? That is Great. Keep up the good work. I am happy to see you back, and look forward to interacting with you.

Thank you Miz. It is nice to chat with you again. I have been taking valerian root for my anxiety, it seems to help. Have a great Saturday!

Book sale at the local library. I got 12 hardcover books for five dollars. Reading is much cheaper than drinking and smoking. Someone wants me to go to the bar down the street but I dont feel happy there. It is annoying being sober around drunk people. Why are they so loud?
