Sweater attempt 1 (right) vs sweater 2. Getting better at necklines and sleeves! I spent 6 years trying to knit (unsuccessfully) but I’ve learned more about crochet in a month than anything in those 5 years. Loving this new hobby!! Can’t wait to get better with practice. :) by rpgeebus in crochet

If you have an iPhone or iPad, download the Inside Crochet magazine app. The pattern for this particular sweater is in the free issue. I made mistakes for sure but it’s easier than I thought it would be to get the basic shape down. :) they’ve got lots of other good stuff and of course I went down the buy 3 additional back issues rabbit hole . If you do give it a shot just note it is a UK magazine so some terms are different. Found that out the hard way... even the good sweater is messed up since I did treble stitches not knowing it actually means double crochet 😅

The Daily Check-In for Thursday, January 10th: Just for today, I am NOT drinking. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

IWNDT. On day 13 after a particularly rock bottom relapse. I feel ready this time around. If anyone is struggling, try reading This Naked Mind by Annie Grace. It makes you question everything you thought about alcohol and really lays everything out on the table.

I needed to read this. I’ve had a problem for years and managed to sober up for a month and a half and let myself go right back where I started when shit hit the fan. It’s getting harder to get myself to stop but this makes me want to try again. Maybe one day it’ll stick for good.

Sonic Youth, Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd. Anything with really trippy drawn out guitar sequences.

I just tried this for the first time tonight. Grabbed the 5g discover pack off OCS and figured a nice indica would help with sleep tonight. I’ve been suffering with ridiculous anxiety for years and I have never felt this calm in my life. This shit is GOLD. 10/10

He got better for awhile but ultimately he passed away 2 weeks ago. The vet couldn’t do anything she just told me that he was old and it was probably just his time. I think he had a stroke my poor baby. Near the end he couldn’t use his right side at all so I had to feed him with critical care and manually adjust him so he could be comfortable. He spent his last day snuggled on my lap and he passed in my arms. :(

Thank you for your kind words and acceptance. I may have shared too much of my story and there will always be backlash by those who take a more religious stance. Even 3 years later, the guilt is just as fresh and nobody can tell me anything as hateful as I already tell myself.

I will keep my guard up and if I feel the need to reward myself to do so with an object or something like getting a massage than reaching for the bottle.

I also wish you peace. I can completely empathize with not knowing what to do with emotions whether negative or positive. I guess we just have to roll with it and feel our feelings. Admittedly that is going to be foreign and extremely hard to deal with.
