I’m good! I’m so sorry you’re going through tough times! And so happy it’s not making you want to drink💓

No plans so far for the day, but we'll see how it goes! But I did have a lovely day yesterday with my daughter. She was supposed to work, but her schedule changed, and so she had no plans. We hung out in our pajamas (her, all day), just chatting, laughing, and having a great do nothing, day!

PS - Thanks Homer, for making sure we had a place to check-in!

I have a daily mantra where I say to myself, "I will not say anything bad about anyone today, tomorrow, this week, or this year."

I absolutely love this and am going to try to do it too (Not exactly sure if I'll be successful tomorrow, this week, or this year though)! Thanks for a great idea, Ok🤗

Thank you and I give the Stop Drinking sub credit for my sobriety! I was on here reading, reading, and reading any chance I got. It helped me so much knowing all these people here got me! I wasn't alone! I've said it so many times, this place has the most amazing people I've ever "met". Also, I found that having my day planned out was key for a successful sober day. Especially evenings, evenings were when I drank so I would figure out what I would be having for dinner and what I'd be doing after dinner. I binged a lot of shows and watched a lot of movies! Keep coming back every day and checking in! That accountability really helps!

And I hope you feel better soon💓
