The Daily Check-In for Sunday August 20th - Just for Today, We are NOT Drinking!

Grateful for this check in, it helped keep me alcohol free last night. Woke up to no hangover, great sleep, and now a relaxing Sunday. I realized I had a craving for alcohol due to discomfort and boredom from our D&D session. I like D&D, I just have a hard time with sitting in one place for 4 hours. Drinking some Oktoberfest NA beers helped me beat the craving. Today is my day to do what I want to do, and I get to do it all with a clear head. Day 17, no poisonous alcohol for me!

The Daily CheckIn for Saturday August 19 - Just for Today, We are NOT Drinking!

I'm with you. Woke up really early this morning for some reason, guess I had enough sleep. The house is nice and quiet this morning. I actually had thoughts of drinking this evening, but the engagement from this community is helping me see that I'm not about that life right now. Today I will prioritize taking care of myself, which does not include drinking poison. Grateful for the reframe!

The Daily Check-In for Monday August 14th - Just for Today, We are NOT Drinking!

Happy Monday! I have to deal with some highly annoying coworkers all week and a lot of distraction. I'll find time to isolate and reset as needed. This kind of thing drains me and sets me up for drinks in the evening to dull out. Strangely excited to figure out some new coping skills that don't involve alcohol or numbing out. No drinking for me today, no matter how overstimulated I get (any advice or tricks that you have are greatly appreciated).
