The day went well. The kids were crazy, rowdy, but for once it didn't get on my nerves as badly as it use to. Nobody was drinking, and we enjoyed just spending good times together. And being thankful for all the blessings we do enjoy. This is the true meaning of Christmas. So glad I was in the moment!
Blessings to all.
Blessings to all.

Made it through two large family gatherings sober. It wasn't too bad. Actually I feel great inside. Like many of you, this was a big hurdle for me. I didn't want to give up all of the hard work being sober and wanted to remain part of the December class. Stay sober!

Hi Strength welcome to the December class!!
happy Birthday Gniknus. Congrats on your first sober birthday in awhile!
I am doing good. I changed my username from Wilson. I hope it doesn't confuse anyone.
I hope you all are doing well too!!

Good night y'all!
It's so good to see everyone checking in! Just got home and it gives me so much more confidence in myself that I was able to stay sober through the Christmas celebrations!
Y'all, we're so much stronger than we give ourselves credit for!

Quick check in in the wee hours while I can't sleep! A sober christmas felt good, especially after seeing my mom on Christmas Eve after overdoing it. I envision a better life for myself!
Love to all of the class here after xmas!!

Well, I didn't make it a sober Christmas 
, but I was careful not to overdo on Christmas Eve as I had the night before so I didn't feel too bad yesterday. A new beginning....Christmas is my sobriety date. Thinking I might need to go to AA...

Welcome Thursday night, so glad you have joined us. And happy for you Denise..
I'm sorry this is not going to be a very positive post. I just feel I need to get it out, and just journaling doesn't seem like enough. My sadness is debilitating today. My mind just races from one negative concern, worry, scenario to the next. I've been in my cozy bed with my dogs since 730am, reading here and on my nook, just trying to get some positive inspiration and it just isn't happening. I just feel empty. I haven't felt this low in a long, long time. I know it's a combination of my dad, my confusing relationship, finances, poor eating and lack Of exercise these past few days as well as this weeks recent drinking. I need to pull out of it. Praying for some grace and relief from what has been taking over my mind and spirit.
Going to take my dog for a walk, it's a start ...

Good Morning from sunny Southern California...headed out the door shortly to go work out and then have a possible online date that I'm meeting up in person with later
Lots to do but realizing I need to put fitness first on days that I need a boost. Hope everyone else is doing well. Day 12 here!

Good morning y'all!
Waking up to three weeks sobriety today! When I started this little experiment I couldn't imagine being three weeks sober (heck, couldn't imagine one day sober) but I'm realizing that I can do it. If other flawed humans can do this, then so can I.
Glad you're here ThursdayNight and ringing in 2015 sober sounds lovely!
Fabl...lots of hugs and support coming your way! You've got a lot on your plate right now and I know the awful feeling of everything just caving in on you, but your right....even just a walk with the dogs, a change of scenery, is awesome therapy! I believe in you.
Congrats to everyone racking up the days!
Hope everyone has a beautiful sober day!
