04:30 -- Oh, my eyes want to be glued shut this morning, but the coffee is underway, and I am so looking forward to that first cup. 8-)

5:20am

Made it to another Friday! 30c and sun forecasted for the whole long weekend.

5:00 AM

Groggy this morning-not enough sleep last night. Phone rang after 10:00 and I was wide awake after that disturbance.

A hot sunny Day ahead. Have a good Friday everyone.

Very disturbed sleep for me as well, hopped out of bed at 3am and changed to the couch...I was so hot and restless, and I couldn't handle my earplugs.....not to worry, first-world problems. :)

:grouphug:

:shine8pl: Although we have severe thunderstorms going on here!

Up early from a weird dream.

03:20 -- I've been having weird dreams also, so I'm going to stay up and do something else than try to go back to sleep. Yesterday was a tough day, so I guess that's been on my mind.

More love dear Guener. :hug: s

Grumpy here.

6:00 AM

I usually don’t remember my dreams unless they’re bad ones. I did dream about hundreds of miller moths in the window sills last night. I have no idea where that came from.

Chloe-shake that dream and have a peaceful day.

Couldn't sleep last night and now I am awake with very little sleep! Uggg!!

:( Oh, that's not good. :hug: s

Up at 7am

Slept well, phone went off at 2am as the weather service annunced the storm (what storm?) was over. Thank you very much.

I keep my phone on silent overnight. People message at any hour....my sister can never remember what time it is for me. :)

My phone is a work phone, I hardly ever use it and usually chuck it in a corner and forget about it as soon as I get home. There was a time when I needed it on 24/7 for emergencies at work. but I don't anyore and always forget about shutting it off. Sometime's I do, but mostly I don't.

I laugh sometimes as my wife and two adult children are glued to thier phones and must carry them at all times.

Good morning early risers.
Day 17 for me.
Sleeping fine but wow the dreams!
It’s like my brain is on rapid process mode or something.
Made it through an AV milestone yesterday.
Went to Trader Joe’s for the first time since my decision to stop drinking.
I was worried I would fall into an old pattern of ‘’just picking up some wine” but I had no interest.
On to a good Sunday, yoga, horses and chores.
Have a great day all.

Yey you!!! You got through Trader Joe's. :) Awesome sauce.
And yes, I think the dreams are part of the whole working it out process when we get sober....I know they were for me. :) :hug: s

5:00 AM

Slept well just not long enough. Swirling mind syndrome!
I need to turn my phone off at night. When you least expect it someone texts or calls about nothing important then I’m aggravated and wide awake.

A good Sunday to all.

I did make it through Trader Joe’s Venuscat!
Thanks so much.
Had one fleeting thought about wine when I got out of the car but it was gone and did not struggle with it.
I know other challenges may not be as easy but one day at a time.
Happy Sunday!

Yeah.....that's why I put mine on silent, but even then it lights up if someone texts, and I am the same as you Imvalentine, it messes me up and I can't get back to sleep. :hug: s

I dunno melki love....I think that was a HUGE challenge. So you can do anything!! :) :hug: s

Up at 4am.

hello Melski :wavey:

Up at 6:45, slept well. Spent my Sunday pulling creeping charlie out of my lawn. This year seems especially bad. Stiff hands this morning.

Still waking up early on vacation, but not getting up super early.

Have a good day all!

7:30 AM

Woke up for a couple of hours with an upset stomach. Weird for me.
Meeting and coffee with a friend today. Hope it goes well as she is from the meeting I used to chair. She has apologized and then pretty much told me off. A bit of resentment there with both of us.

Happy Monday to all.

Told you off for what love? :hug: s

Hope it is a nice lunch. :hug: s xx

Still mostly asleep here. Coffee no 3 I think. :) :hug: s

Welcome Melski!

Up at 0400.

My phone is kept downstairs as well as Mr. Ringo's personal & work phone when we retire for the night. I tell perspective sponsees and new friends that my phone isn't glued to my hip--but I am good about returning calls/texts.

6.45am here, but to be fair, I've been up all night. Just couldn't switch off last night.

Went to lay down at 5pm but, fell asleep until now.
Bad day yesterday for my bf and I think the empath in me is feeling much of it. Not much to do or say he is sick with a cough and cold and he thinks he has a "black cloud" over his head. Praying for a better day today.

5:15am

Morning. dark and grey outside, tho it's expected to get sunny and hot. Back to work after a lovely and relaxing long weekend.

5:25 AM

A bad and hurtful dream right before I woke up. Shaking it off-yuck. Coffee went well enough yesterday but it was awkward. Relationships change and life goes on.
Seeing therapist before noon yoga. She has job security with me!

Take care everyone.

Glad coffee went ok Imvalentine. Relationships do indeed change.

Chloe, I hope your bf starts feeling better.

Best wishes for a good day all!
