Un-Monday

Hi everyone! Today has been good so far. So its been an un-Monday Monday :) Traveling along on my sobriety journey. I'm feeling pretty positive today and am grateful for another day sober. I'm trying to work through my negative thoughts and change that thinking. I'm usually pretty into the holidays, but this year I've been struggling with depression. So I'm trying to break out of that slump. Sending love, peace and hope to all those out there on their journey as well.

Right back at ya. My first few months sober were the hardest as all the negative thoughts and emotions I had been repressing came to the surface. However as I stayed the course my thinking changed. Now I’m more positive than I have ever been. It doesn’t happen overnight. Slow and steady. Create it daily for yourself.

I used to hate Monday’s. Now it really doesn’t matter as much because I’m not super hung over and able to just get up and go. I really appreciate the reminder

Hi there! I'm new to this site. I am 3 weeks sober... I haven't been able to go more then 2 days without drinking in the past 2.5 years.... I have two daughter 7 and 2. My 7 year old caught on after a year... She would catch me hiding bottles (so horrible). I feel really good so far... But holidays are going to be a little different this year I guess...

    check out that smoke ring. It tasted really good. I smothered it with Maulls BBQ sauce which is Local to St. Louis and one of the best I ever had.....

     I was recently separated from my wife of 33 years and it's complicated. Anyway I rented a room about 15 minutes away and I see my kids about once a week. I see the people who own the house I live in once in a while but other than that I stay in my room where I do my cooking, wash dishes in the shower, read, color, and sleep. I get out at least once a day. I grocery shop and I attend 2 meetings...
