Told ya

Good morning again sleepy heads. Told ya id be around here a little more this weekend You all are part of my toolbox. I rode my bike home from work. House is silent. Except for my dog Jax whom woke up soon as I opened the door. Figured id start by making a fresh pot of Java. Cleaned the kitchen a little didnt want to make noise. Took doggy for his walk. Doing so bam my darn cat snuck out . Sooo had to chase her around caught her in the tree. Aaaaugh. The little 💩. So after all that I go to my office....the garage lol. And do my readings. Daily reflection. Daily bread. And a page of my recovery Book. Enter my stuff in my journal. And now I am writing this. So I been sober for 119 days now. Amazing. Trying to think of a menu for the day. Being the weather is fantastic. Thats my vice now lol. Food. Should be a good day today. I thank you for reading my post. Like get a life right? Lol. Sorry but you all are my life so nah nah nah nah.lol gotta go got some eggs and bacon calling me.lol. I'll be back. ✌

I'm really happy to see things are going so well for you. I think your positive posts will make a difference for people still struggling with drinking. Very inspiring. I also think it's great and helpful that you update on how things are going for you. Gives people hope. John

Hey I'll just be a spectator keep an eye on things if you will. I'm doing my thing. I have had a good day today. I'm having a fresh cup of coffee. Life is good. I knew my man upstairs would look out for me. Gave me calmness.really seeing and feeling things you know. I know I am going to sleep like a baby tonight. Being I have not gone to sleep since I got off work this morning. Which I'm ok with ✌

Hello. Update I made it thru watching my upstairs neighbors party. End result....i am at 120 sober. Yes yay me. My girlfriend joined them which I'm cool with.i was with them too. But cut myself off and watched some tv .....i think or eye lids. That my friends is a big win for me. Let me tell you if rhis was 120 days ago. I would of felt like a kid in a candy store all the different kinds of booze and beer . but I was content with my java and water. I'm so happy I didnt cave in. I wouldn't say it was a close call. But I did use my toolbox and it worked . 😃 thanks for sticking around gang you all really helped me. ✌
