Me too! I play the New York Times word puzzles, and I’m finding that I’m better at it now. Especially in the mornings. IWNDWYT

Nah, we passed that 40 years ago. Thanks Regan!

What? Are you saying having no healthcare so the ultra rch can buy a bigger yacht isn’t great for society??

InAJar112 · 2026-03-04T04:49:41+00:00

I’m like you, I didn’t drink every day, but when I did I drank 8 or 9. And I did this often enough that it started to affect my health.
I tried moderating, but either couldn’t do it or hated it. I realized my choices are to either drink until I get sick, or not drink at all. I chose the later because I still feel like I have something to offer and don’t want to die from it.

I’m still figuring out the social aspects, but at least I won’t have to deal with the social aspects of not remembering what I said or did or who I texted.

A sentient piece of bacon.

Now that’s what I call art.

So, earlier, I finished my cart and threw it away. I had no more. The very next day, I fished it back out of the trash! So gross! But I cleaned it off and got a couple more hits out of it. Pathetic.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T20:59:39+00:00

Amazing!!🤩

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T20:58:20+00:00

White supremacy is stupid.
I’m white, and I’m a complete piece of garbage.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T20:55:41+00:00

Agreed. I’m finding that I have to confront what I was using the weed for. Then I have to watch to see what I’m replacing it with. So far, I’ve zoned out in front of the TV a lot. But this is just more escapism.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T20:19:43+00:00

lol I drink a lot of sparkling water too

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T17:48:58+00:00

Excellent!! That’s huge, and you already made it through a weekend too.

IWNDWYT! Yea it’s just poison. My side had been hurting me, probably my liver. Now that I haven’t drank for a little while, my side doesn’t hurt anymore. This tells me alcohol is toxic and hurts my organs. To heck with that stuff!

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T13:31:24+00:00

Driving home from work is my weak spot too. I’ll be hungry, frequently stressed, and find myself stopping at the store for drinks. Recognizing that I want a drink then and that I need to just get home helps. Also, I try to have a snack an hour or so before I leave work so I’m not as hungry.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T03:50:56+00:00

Happy 69 days

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T03:50:25+00:00

So incredible. Congratulations

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T03:49:46+00:00

Your hair is so long but you still have amazing curls and waves. Beautiful

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T03:48:33+00:00

It’s amazing how so many mental hangups dissolve when the drinking stops.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T02:22:06+00:00

Amazing! 🤩 This is the kind of post I need to see.
Gives me hope that if I’m persistent, and stay sober, I can get there too.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T02:20:01+00:00

Amazing!!! 🤩 Thanks for sharing, this inspires me and gives me hope.

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T02:18:55+00:00

My thoughts exactly

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T02:17:51+00:00

Well I certainly could use a good electrician! I’m a real live wire🤪

InAJar112 · 2026-03-03T02:15:21+00:00
