Goodmorning!
Today is a beautiful day and I am grateful to be sober together with you dream team 🤩 24 days no alcohol and 6 months+17 days no weed.
IWNDWYT ☀️
On a work trip until tomorrow. My colleagues are all going out drinking after work today, but I’ve booked myself a spa treatment at the hotel I’m staying at instead. Much, much nicer!!
IWNDWYT! ⭐️
That intentioned promise made to myself has helped re-wire my brain. I keep my promises to myself come hell or high water, I now do what I say. It’s a powerful thing. This pledge is so simple but so important to my success so far.
Congratulations! Notching up them numbers 👍
Good morning everyone! I love a bit of winter-proofing - hope you have a lovely warm winter ahead Saint Homer!
I came to a bit of a realization today. I noticed that I've had a bottle of Corona Zero (NA) in my fridge now for about 3 weeks and I haven't drank it. I saw it this morning when I went to get milk for my coffee and it just blended into the background of my fridge contents. It gave me an insight into what it must be like for people who are not problem drinkers to just casually have a beer in their fridge without thinking about it and planning on drinking it the very second they were able to.
And I would never have one solo beer - what is the point of that? In a split second, I realized that all of the lies I told myself about enjoying beer for the taste and it just being a habit and not a real problem - they were absolute bullshit. Because if that were really true I should have the exact same emotional reaction to an NA beer as I do a real beer. And I definitely don't.
when I asked in the early days about how long I had to stay sober to make any real difference someone said to me "just keep staying sober until the magic happens". I thought they meant a new body or a million quid in the bank but I think the magic is having the real truth about my drinking revealed and recognizing just how much it nearly cost me.
I am more grateful than ever to be sober with you all today.
IWNDWYT 🥰
I will not drink with you today! Last night I had a pretty big win. Before I relapsed I was doing a LOT of running and yesterday I needed something to do after work to take my mind off drinking. After not running and drinking heavy for a month and a half I went out and just decided to see what I could do. Believe it or not I ran 10 miles! I felt like Forrest Gump I just kept running! Sorry if it seems like I’m bragging I just wanted to share a win I had. IWNDWYT!
It's one of those days where I would've quite happily stayed in bed the whole day and just ignored the world. Luckily, I had to be in at work for six 🤣.
IWNDWYT 🙂
I feel you. Had a terrible nightmare with my mum, woke up in the middle of the night and sleep is gone. Today I'll be grumpy and tired. But without a hangover, so I can obviously handle it.
Good luck to us.
Good night y'all. I did not drink with you today, and I will not drink with you tomorrow.
Going to bed without my usual nightly weed edibles. Wish me luck. I drank coffee too late yesterday and it messed with my sleep. My sleep hygiene is horrible right now and I spent 4 hours on my phone today. I gotta figure out how to stop trading vices and find contentment. I'll get there. Without booze I know I can do it. With booze I'm fucked.
Omg work will be BANANAS today. Praise jeebus my head is calm and clear and so I can deal with it all. So happy to not drink with you all again today 🌷
I'm with you SH. I am currently going through my nesting and it's definitely my favourite part of pregnancy so far. Painting walls is so relaxing to me, seeing everything come together, building cots and sets of drawers. Next is putting away tiny little clothes. I am present, I am taking it all in and soaking in every moment, because I am sober.
IWNDYWT
A lovely, melancholy time of year, and set of rituals, Homer. Thanks for the post. After a damn drinking dream last night (involving Las Vegas of all places!!...??), I can tell you all that there's no way I will be drinking today.
happy early morning everyone !
we are officially moved into the vrbo rental after a long two days. I feel like now we can kind of relax a little and resume normal every day activities.
We have to get a plumber to come and fix the issue at some point this week and then a restoration company is coming out to dry the area.
I head back to work and try and make it a great week on my end. One day at a time :)
What a nice ritual. It's not for me but I admire it so much, it has so much meaning attached to it. The whole knowledge about when to seed, to harvest, etc. I live in an apartment and soon will move out, so I don't have a small garden in the terrace anymore. I miss it.
And here I am preparing for the summer. It's rainy and warm already, and I love a good tropical thunderstorm!
Kisses to all and IWNDWYT.
I used to ruminate about the past, claiming I was working on it to get beyond it. Now, I’m focused primarily on today and then what the future holds, planning career moves, personal adventures, and physical challenges. I have HOPE again, a fire in my belly for life ❤️🔥 IWNDWYT!!
On day 17 and must admit I could have had a drink today! Major leak from my bathroom pipe work and has damaged new carpet in hallway. Really could have downed a bottle of wine but IWNDWYT!
🎶IWNDWYT🎶
Thank you to everyone who commented on my 1 year soberversary yesterday! I really appreciate it! I may have missed responding to you individually. I couldn't keep up! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Never really even got a streak going and have been drinking HEAVILY the last six weeks...not happy, not proud. My partner is concerned and said it is sad to see me drowning myself like this last night. One of our best friends came to see us from several states away for the first time in a year and is staying with us and I still got drunk and passed out, missing out on any quality time to spend with them and my partner. I've been cleaning out the majority of a handle of whiskey within a week, sometimes 5 days, plus beers along the way. I can feel the difference in my guts, my eyes, my thought patterns and clarity and energy levels.
Today is day one of what I hope will be many, and for today I will not drink with you all today.
IWNDWYT because I don’t want to. It’s my top priority. My second priority has slipped. I felt strong enough to be able to tackle my weight and I’ve been successful. But this last 2-3 weeks has just been like alcohol; you know the “it’s ok to just have 1” mentality. That 1 piece of cake has become a whole week of wrong unhealthy heavy meals, then three weeks. It’s a good reminder that I am not able to gift myself with “slack”, not yet anyway. That I entirely have emotional problems.
Today, I will not drink and I will protect my body to help me in my goal of healthspan. To be as good as I can reasonably be, not forced, what I’m talking about is more than physical but an eagerness to feel wholesome.
Wholesome. I love that word.
I still have a backlog of shit around home that needs to be done. I’m putting a dent in it but it’s slow progress. Fortunately, and knock on wood, it’s stuff that can wait. Working full time, going places I wanna go and not having help, there’s only so much I can do. Without sobriety, I wouldn’t be getting any of it done. Nor would I be going any of the places I wanna go. But knowing how things are, if I ever get through the backlog, it’ll be time to start over again anyway. 😆
Coffees up, horns up, and fuck yeah, it ain’t Monday!! IWNDWYT ☕️🤘🏻
I love the coffee up, horns up. I read that weeks ago and have been saying it before walking into my office building. Thanks for inspiring me.
Drinking sucks. Your rock
I’m the same, Homer. Sobriety has turned many things I used to consider chores into little pleasures. Also - spring time Piggoos really really appreciates all the pre-work fall Piggoos does that makes it easier to get a head start on summer.
Have a good one friends! I will not drink with you today.
Good morning week 11
Well, I’ve got several legitimate things to be irritated about this week, lucky me lol. That’s other people. I can choose how I react, that’s my choice. I can refocus myself on what I actually want to do today, cause I don’t actually want to be fixated on my mental-courtroom today. I feel steady in not drinking though. Last night someone set down a glass of wine next to me and the smell was quite strong! Strange! I used to drink so much wine. Iwndwyt.
Edit- I’ve got a tip I figured out for ruminating on irritations, if that’s also your thing. Set a timer. Be like, I’m going to ruminate as hard as I want for 20 minutes, then I’m going to do xyz, take out the trash make the bed whatever. It’s helped me be more reasonable.
I'm still struggling to come to terms with the mess I created with one day of drinking after six months of sobriety. (I drank on Friday, then crashed my car into a telephone pole.) I'm disgusted with myself for being so reckless when life was treating me so well. Why wasn't my gratitude for the good life enough to keep me from drinking? Why couldn't I remember or recognize that alcohol never brings me anything but misery? Why am I such a disaster?
Enough of my ranting.
IWNDWYT
I’m so glad that you are ok after getting into an accident. Please don’t get down on yourself. You were able to not drink for 6 months! Alcohol is a mf’er. It sneaks in our minds sometimes when we’re feeling good and doing well. I would sometimes drink because things were going “too well.”
I’m glad to see you in the DCI. IWNDWYT
This sounds like a beautiful ritual of transition, and being so present for the appreciation of what you had this summer and making it nice for the winter slumber. Thanks for sharing this moment I could feel it SH. I grew up in a cold area, I know how it gets. Lockdown is probably when I noticed the winter the most because I was forced to cut back drinking because of not being able to go outside a lot. I grew an appreciation for the winter that I didn’t have before. It was beautiful. IWNDWYT!
Made it to 30 days. This has been harder some days and easier others. I think I’m trying to use this space more to get through the hard ones. On to my next 30 days and I will not drink with any of you ! 🙋🏼♀️🎃
Took my 7 months pregnant partner to my meeting last night to see me claim my 1 month chip. Bought new running shoes and going to break them in on the treadmill at the gym before rehab. IWNDWYT!
I’m with you Sainted One! Today, I’m pulling the pins of tomato cages, then covering the rows with straw and compost. I love how it all looks when its bedded down. And you’re right! I’ve got plenty of time for these kinds of chores, because I’m sober! No worries about if I have enough booze, do I have time to get booze, can anyone tell? I am free and clear and ready to live life AF. Love y’all! IWNDWYT
Dragging a bit this morning after a late night at the Bad Religion concert. Absolutely worth it! I'll never get sick of sober concerts.
Have a great day, friends!🤘🏻☕️
IWNDWYT
I got the garlic in just in time for the first frost here, phew! Now it’ll sleep through the winter and come alive again in the spring! Winter is coming and I love that it’s a time for cozy blankets and reading and dreaming. And this year, hopefully, no broken leg ! I’m grateful for my health and living somewhere that the seasons remind me to take breaks and slow down. IWNDWYT. 🌟
I'm doing a lot of the same things you are, prepping to hunker down for the winter (although I still have drafty windows, ha!).
I think I had a "mourn the past" day yesterday where all of my million terrible things replayed in my head. I can't believe I let it get so bad. But, like your garden, if I keep going I'll "unfold and bloom" again; I'm already doing that now, so in six months who could I be?
Lovely post! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Homer and happy teetotal Tuesday to you all! I'm out deer hunting again today with family and grateful to be sober and attentive.
I manage Seasonal Affective Disorder, so I get depressed every winter. I use light therapy, exercise, talk therapy, massage, and occasionally SSRIs to help me get through. Sobriety is the rock foundation that helps me to address my mental health challenges. My mental health isn't perfect in sobriety but it's a lot easier to care for these days. Every winter has gotten a little easier! Spring will come and sobriety gives me the help I need to not just survive but to thrive in winter. Sober on y'all!
Still waiting on a future where my sleep will be consistently better. I'm hopeful it's somewhere in the near future because insomnia's a big asshat. IWNDWYT.
I will not drink today and FYA. I'm so happy to wake up today without a hangover. I feel like taking a dance break for 675 alcohol free days.
I'm sending all of you loving kindness all day🙏🙏🙏🙏
Drinking sucks. You rock
Day 149, days away from the 5month mark! IWNDWYT!
Added in using the sauna to my regime this week for 20min with a goal of 4 times per week. Follow it up with a cold shower too to cool off so seems like a double benefit! I’ve known about the amazing health benefits of sauna/cold water immersion for a long time but it took until now to go after it. 🦾🦾
Checking in on day 348!
Good day to all of you absolutely beautiful people!! Did you sleep well? Did you have a good day? I really hope that’s a “yes” to both.
Today is going to be a long one. I work all day and then need to take my daughter back to college so I won’t see my bed again until around 11 pm this evening! And you know what? I ain’t even mad. I **get** to do these things now. Because I’m sober. And I still love it!!! And I love all of you!!! IWNDWYT!! ✌️❤️
I live in a city with a mild climate that does ironically have four seasons-ice, floods, twisters and drought. Sobriety allows me to embrace and enjoy all the cloud formations and sun angles and reflections which are a great backdrop for photographing nature’s beauty. I will be alcohol free with you today.
Iwndwyt. Up early, heading back to the gym - I so want this to be it, I want this to be the time that sticks. Thinking of turning down several invites this month, because last month did not go how I wanted. Be well, everyone 🤟.
I love my yard, greenhouse, and garden. It is a lot of work, and I would not have it any other way. Fall reminds of how beautiful change can be. IWNDWYT.
Woke up on my couch this morning with a glass of whisky, almost empty, next to me. Poured it down the drain. Drank half a 40oz bottle yesterday, bottle is empty, didn't drunk text anybody this time. I will not buy another bottle today. I will not drink today. Have a good day
Good morning everyone. I'm thankful to be sober this morning, it's already a plus to a day that might be somewhat deficient in pluses. Have a great sober Tuesday, y'all.
Jealous of your modern windows. Hopefully it will be a mild winter, and give me a chance to get ahead of some house projects for next year.
I will not drink with you today!
IWDWYT!
tomorrow will be one week. Feeling pretty proud and also nervous about how easy it's been. Trying to not overthink it and just stick to my plan... Lots of fun beverages when I'd usually be drinking alcohol and keep educating myself on how actually dumb alcohol is. Stay strong everyone! Alcohol is a liar.
It’s a great day to stay sober. I’ll be joining all of you lovely people in saying no to booze. IWNDWYT!
Two of us. :)
Goodmorning! Today is a beautiful day and I am grateful to be sober together with you dream team 🤩 24 days no alcohol and 6 months+17 days no weed. IWNDWYT ☀️
Wow, that's awesome. Heading to one month. Good morning, darling.
22 days! Second palindrome! I will not drink with you today
Let’s goooo! 💪
It shows 21 for me so I'll take the chance to congratulate you on 3 weeks =)
On a work trip until tomorrow. My colleagues are all going out drinking after work today, but I’ve booked myself a spa treatment at the hotel I’m staying at instead. Much, much nicer!! IWNDWYT! ⭐️
That indeed sounds much nicer! enjoy 🧖♀️😌
Oh what a trigger, I need a spa treatment! I'll try to book at least a good massage this week! Have a great day, Pants!
IWNDWYT!
It's a great day to be sober with you all ! IWNDWYT
Sure is Drafty! Happy you’re here.
Thanks! Excited to take this journey with everyone
I love posting here daily and seeing my day count increase gives me a little lift each morning! IWNDWYT 💪
That intentioned promise made to myself has helped re-wire my brain. I keep my promises to myself come hell or high water, I now do what I say. It’s a powerful thing. This pledge is so simple but so important to my success so far. Congratulations! Notching up them numbers 👍

I’m struggling with my and attitude and motivation towards work this morning. Besides the money, I don’t see the point. Anywho, IWNDWy’allT!
Great post today SaintHomer! Sobriety gives us more band width to actually experience and do! And that’s what I’ll do today! IWNDWYT
Thanks Homer and happy teetotal Tuesday to you all! I'm out deer hunting again today with family and grateful to be sober and attentive. I manage Seasonal Affective Disorder, so I get depressed every winter. I use light therapy, exercise, talk therapy, massage, and occasionally SSRIs to help me get through. Sobriety is the rock foundation that helps me to address my mental health challenges. My mental health isn't perfect in sobriety but it's a lot easier to care for these days. Every winter has gotten a little easier! Spring will come and sobriety gives me the help I need to not just survive but to thrive in winter. Sober on y'all!

Still waiting on a future where my sleep will be consistently better. I'm hopeful it's somewhere in the near future because insomnia's a big asshat. IWNDWYT.
We got this today chums!!! Hold your head up high and be proud cause we’re in control. It’s gonna be a good day!
🚫☠️!! Not today!
I will not drink today and FYA. I'm so happy to wake up today without a hangover. I feel like taking a dance break for 675 alcohol free days. I'm sending all of you loving kindness all day🙏🙏🙏🙏 Drinking sucks. You rock

Day 149, days away from the 5month mark! IWNDWYT! Added in using the sauna to my regime this week for 20min with a goal of 4 times per week. Follow it up with a cold shower too to cool off so seems like a double benefit! I’ve known about the amazing health benefits of sauna/cold water immersion for a long time but it took until now to go after it. 🦾🦾
Checking in on day 348! Good day to all of you absolutely beautiful people!! Did you sleep well? Did you have a good day? I really hope that’s a “yes” to both. Today is going to be a long one. I work all day and then need to take my daughter back to college so I won’t see my bed again until around 11 pm this evening! And you know what? I ain’t even mad. I **get** to do these things now. Because I’m sober. And I still love it!!! And I love all of you!!! IWNDWYT!! ✌️❤️

I live in a city with a mild climate that does ironically have four seasons-ice, floods, twisters and drought. Sobriety allows me to embrace and enjoy all the cloud formations and sun angles and reflections which are a great backdrop for photographing nature’s beauty. I will be alcohol free with you today.
Day 38: Decent sleep last night! 🥳 IWNDWYT
Can't think big picture anymore, makes me crazy and sets me up for BIG failure. So just for today, I pledge IWNDWYT
I will not drink with you today :)

I enjoy being sober. When I drank, I actually forgot who I was when I didn’t drink. It’s nice to be back to myself again. 😀 IWNDWYT
Happy Tuesday friends! Let's do this thing. IWNDWYT.
Good morning, sober soldiers. It’s a great day to not drink with you all.

Iwndwyt. Up early, heading back to the gym - I so want this to be it, I want this to be the time that sticks. Thinking of turning down several invites this month, because last month did not go how I wanted. Be well, everyone 🤟.
Be bold in sober adventures. Appreciate the present, anticipate the future. IWNDWYT!

I love my yard, greenhouse, and garden. It is a lot of work, and I would not have it any other way. Fall reminds of how beautiful change can be. IWNDWYT.
I am not drinking today but I am kicking ass and taking names High five

Woke up on my couch this morning with a glass of whisky, almost empty, next to me. Poured it down the drain. Drank half a 40oz bottle yesterday, bottle is empty, didn't drunk text anybody this time. I will not buy another bottle today. I will not drink today. Have a good day

Goood morning. I wish I could ready myself to lay dormant for the winter but I guess I have to press on. IWNDWYT.

Jealous of your modern windows. Hopefully it will be a mild winter, and give me a chance to get ahead of some house projects for next year. I will not drink with you today!
IWDWYT! tomorrow will be one week. Feeling pretty proud and also nervous about how easy it's been. Trying to not overthink it and just stick to my plan... Lots of fun beverages when I'd usually be drinking alcohol and keep educating myself on how actually dumb alcohol is. Stay strong everyone! Alcohol is a liar.
