Pretty confused what I’m supposed to do today? Seems like everyone outside is fucked up. What are y’all doing?

Not drinking and enjoying the holiday. Sobriety is about finding things outside of getting fucked up that make you happy. For me today, it's taking my dog out for a hike and grilling for a bunch of other sober people. Those kinds of things didn't make me happy before sobriety but as my life got simpler and more peaceful they now do. Takes time to find but in the meantime don't drink and try to make it through today. One day at a time.

My daughter and I are hanging out and cuddling our puppies so they won’t be scared from the fireworks!!!
I love my sober life!

Just trying to make it through a huge family party where everyone is drinking. Once they start getting trashed it makes it easier for me to feel happy I didn’t drink. Until then…. I wait miserably. Lol

A nice lunch with some close family and friends. Then hulu time.
Had a fun afternoon grill out. And now it’s rained and most fireworks in the Chicago area are postponed. So gonna sit back relax and watch them on tv with the family.

Staying sober. It's hard Molly, but so worth it.

Staying sober at a huge beautiful resort in Ohio. Loving it.
I got breakfast with friends and went for a long walk on the beach this morning. Cooking myself a nice dinner and enjoying a night in after a busy weekend. Bought myself some fancy sparkling juice to enjoy as a treat 
so thankful to be sober!

Chilling at my camper, the fam is around somewhere in the campground, but I chose to sit by myself.

Wait, we can use fucked up in a sentence but not other words like h-e-l-l? This app is so weird
Drinking Pelligrino
I worked out, made a beef jerky and cheese omelet, went on a 8 mile bike ride, grilled steak, chicken, and hot dogs for my parents and I to enjoy. It was a great day!

I stayed home away from all of that as I’m new in recovery on day 44. Don’t need the added triggers when I’m already triggered with overwhelming stress and life issues. I went to a meeting tonight. Sadly it was a only me and another person. But I’m glad I went.

I’m not everybody outside
Personally I just stayed home. On Saturday I’ve been to a pool party and everyone was drunk trying to get me to drink but I didn’t. I left and haven’t left home since
Started my day with the serenity prayer, called my sponsor, then hung out at a lot of the day at an AA Clubhouse grilling hotdogs with fellows, participating in several meetings. All in all, a pretty kick a$$ day!
Hanging with family and not embarrassing myself or being an asshole drunk. Going to bed proud for another sober day.
I went to an Agnostic AA group bonfire/BBQ and it was really great.
