I’ve tried to not be on social media as much and honestly I feel better for it. Now I just need 12 hours of sleep, a massage and a hot chocolate and life will be great.

Prepping to launch my new creative endeavour. It’s exciting but a lot of work and hopefully it’s something people get a lot from.

I’m trying to get into better habits and routine that allow me to get healthier and more productive. But I’m so tired. I keep going to the doctor about my fatigue and they do tests but they are always clear. I am trying to just push through but it’s so tough at times. Tips appreciated.

Yeah those were definitely Nazi salutes by Space Karen. No we should not “give him grace” (fuck off ADL), we should call reality a fact and call it out. In 2025 a billionaire mouthpiece for the president threw Nazi salutes to a crowd. And y’all are just giving him a pass…

Went through chapters 3 and 4 of the Big Book with my sponsee this morning and it was so amazing to see her reaction as the information is presented to her. They are completely mind blowing and clarifying at the same time. I sort of forgot how powerful they are. #sobersky #recoveryposse

And I know a post about a water pick is stupid as hell, but when I was drinking I did not take care of myself because I was either too drunk to care or because my self-value was so slow I didn’t feel worth the effort. Now I’m looking after my skin, hair, teeth, body, all of it. Because I know I am..

Day one using my new water pick and it might just be my brain playing tricks but I’m already feeling a difference to my teeth. They just feel cleaner.

There’s nothing better than a couple of hours with my nieces. They are at an age where they just chatter away to you, they get a bit sassy and they just want to play and I bloody love it.

Total rich bitch post but…I am so happy the festive holiday is over and my cleaner is back!! Why do I have a cleaner, you may ask. Honestly I could be saving that cash or paying down my debt faster but she takes away a massive stress in my life and frees up time for me. And that’s worth the cost.

Three hour call with one of my sober sisters this morning, meeting with my sponsee this evening and then my sponsor tomorrow evening. It’s an AA sort of weekend ❤️ #sobersky #recoveryposse

Ended 2024 writing the opening of my novel, started 2025 planning and setting up my new podcast. This year is the year I step into my creative power.

I’m going to start an alternative honours list, filled with cool people doing some good shit. So far I have:

@k8lister.bsky.social for history badass-ery
@l-a-kelly.bsky.social for data journalism awesomeness

Give me your picks for Alternative Honours. Make it good!!

Nuggets are trending on here. I know it’s likely for basketball reasons but part of me hopes it’s actually because people are sharing their love of those little golden goodies.

I had a great day, despite throwing my back out walking the dog this morning. Saw my gorgeous nieces, lunch with the fam, hung out with my dog and cats and this evening I did a lead share on Zoom about Step 5. And not a drink in sight!! #sobersky #recoveryposse #odaat

Great so the trash will be taking itself out…
The irony is thick here.

I’ve been trying to get my dog to the point where he can be left to roam the flat overnight and not shut in his crate. Last few nights fine, still put the cover over the crate but left the door open. Tonight he figured out he could get out and he’s been tormenting me in my bed so that’s the crate

Here’s to a safe and sober Christmas (it’s fresh orange and lemonade) #sobersky #recoveryposse #odaat

This Sunday is my Recovery day. Few meetings, speaking to my sponsor, doing some reading, journaling. Have a good 24 everyone!! #sobersky #recoveryposse #odaat

Getting sober doesn’t mean my problems are all solved - it just means I am facing them head-on and not drinking into oblivion in a bid to avoid them. And yes, that’s tough but I wouldn’t go back to the bottle #sobersky #recoveryposse

Have become a sponsor for the first time. Thought it would be terrifying but it’s actually pretty cool #sobersky #recoveryposse

Next week I will mark 1 year of sobriety. I’m doing 2 lead shares (Monday and Wednesday) at different meetings and am feeling in a really good place. #ODAAT #SoberSky

I was just asked by my neighbour’s 3yo son if I wanted to go to the safari park with him and his mum. It was the sweetest most earnest thing ever. And if I’d still been drinking it never would have happened because I’d either still be in bed or I’d be looking rough, not be in a good mood and the kid
