Yep, grateful for this new BG thread, thank you Carol!

Grateful that Mother's Day is about other people, it's not just another excuse for me to drink.

Grateful for my twin girls and my son: three of the best reasons in the world for remaining sober, healthy, and grounded.

And grateful for this forum -- glad to have found it.

Grateful, just plain old grateful, to those who show understanding and compassion.

Prayers for those who don't.

Prayers for my neighbor, now in the hospital.

Grateful for a nice warm bed, even if the dog steals all the covers from us in the middle of the night. (Dogs like blankets, too, you know)

Have a great night, all.....

to all the new posters and us old ones

Grateful I put off paying my cell and splurged and bought this purse I have been dying to get.

Its weird when I was using I was real good at moving around funds but today I sort of felt a little guilty but not that guilty cause I still bought it:rotfxko

Thanks Carol for all your service work

Nite Nite

Grateful to write a radical gratitude list in my journal tonight . . . I speed wrote the first fifty things I could think of. Nice to look over that list and see fifty things to be happy about.

Grateful SR taught me about the value of gratitude.

Yay new thread...thanks Carol

Grateful I am sober in the evenings and can help the kids with homework as needed and not be irritated because it ruins my buzz

G'night all!

Grateful to be back to say I am grateful for everything today. I've turned my day over and anything that happens after this is God's business...grateful to not be the driver today!
Belated happy Mom's Day to all moms here...we had a houseful of guests, so busy on Sunday...grateful to spend Mother's Day with my mama, sister, brother, daughters, son-in-laws, and grandkids.

Grateful for a really nice email from my therapist back home, and grateful to have him as my therapist. You can't even imagine.

And grateful for seemingly ever-increasing willingness and surrender. Makes life much easier—in some ways—to not have to run things.

Thanks, everybody, for sharing!!
Lovve and hugs,
Eddie
