I'm learning from you all and my family. There is nothing to envy my friend.
It is there. You have been a big voice in on my shoulder. Thank you.

Aysha · 04-09-2007, 10:30 PM

Well I guess it was good day.. Don't know..I was up until 10:30 this morning just finding music for my dizzler and went to visit my ex boss/ friend at work for awhile so I slept all day.
So I guess it was a good sleep to be clean. LOL

Grateful I finally got done going through hundreds of pics and scanning and sending them to my cousin so he can make a slide dvd for my aunt. Her B day is tomorrow.

Grateful I got to play with the babies this morning before I passed out.

Grateful my grams is happy and worry free.

Grateful to have made it another day. Even tho I did sleep through it.

And grateful for my friends here. You knew that was coming.

[QUOTE=IO Storm;1283399]Hi Dee 74!

Where's Queensland?

it's here, Sherry ! nah, just kidding...

It's a northern state in Australia - Great Barrier Reef, Steve Irwin's/The Croc Hunter's Australia Zoo ? (although I'm in the less exciting but I think no less beautiful surburbia of the capital city Brisbane) bit tropical but that's what aircon's for, isn't it ?

what's San Diego like ?

**Astro** · 04-10-2007, 03:43 PM

Hello everyone! Very grateful to Margo for starting a new Bedtime Gratitude thread.

Aysha · 04-10-2007, 07:31 PM

Well today started out being really stressful. Between having to sit in the SS office for 3 hrs for nothing to just being really tired today.
But it was my aunt B-day and I cheered up real fast.

I am grateful for another day clean

A day that turned out so great.

For my cousin who made the best slideshow DVD for my aunts B-day. We all cried like little babies.

And so much today for my family. I really see what I have been missing by using. I couldnt ask for a better family.

And for all of you.

Aysha · 04-11-2007, 10:45 PM

What a great day!!!

I am so grateful for another day clean.

Very grateful I got my job back for the 4th time.

Grateful I am not in more pain than I am. Biy they kicked my butt.

Grateful for my family.

Grateful for another chance at life.

And always grateful for all of you.

IO Storm · 04-11-2007, 11:06 PM

Way to go Chiy!

Grateful for inner peace and another CS day.

Love,

Sherry

Aysha · 04-12-2007, 10:21 PM

Grateful for another day of course.

Grateful for staying positive.

Grateful I am working.

Grateful for my family.

Grateful Me and my grams have been very blessed considering alot of situations. We always come out ok.

And always grateful for all of you.

Lbad · 04-13-2007, 07:05 AM

I am grateful for Astro. This morning he made my heart smile.

**Astro** · 04-13-2007, 08:46 AM

Hey, good to see "L" posting here again!!

OK, a little shameless materialism for me today. I'm grateful for not having to pay spousal support anymore. She remarried so tomorrow I'm treating myself to a motorcycle. It's been 17 years since my last (drunken) ride. Woohoo!!

Aysha · 04-14-2007, 12:51 AM

Another day clean.

Grateful I made it through Friday the 13th. I always have good days anyway on Friday the 13th. Always have.

Grateful tomorrow is my cousins baby shower. I been dieting all week and I am gonna oink it down tomorrow.

Grateful for another day to fight.

Grateful for my family.

And always grateful for eveyone here.

Lbad · 04-14-2007, 07:09 AM

Grateful that Astro gets to treat himself. Tell us all about it.

Sounds like you have a large family Chiynita..

Aysha · 04-14-2007, 07:34 PM

What a day. Had a great time at my cousins baby shower.

Grateful for another day.

Grateful my cousin only has a few weeks left. YAY!!

Grateful for my family.

And as always for all of you.

IO Storm · 04-14-2007, 11:35 PM

Hi L. Love u.

Astro: Party on dude! Happy sober riding!

(How nice it will be to not look over the ol'
shoulder eh?)

Chiy, sweet dreams babe.

Where's Dee?

Love,

Sherry

Lbad · 04-15-2007, 08:01 AM

I am grateful Doo is healthy even though his ears have decided to be floppy this week. The Vet at work is baffled. Hmmmmmm. Well maybe they will go back up. He looks like a dork though.

IO Storm · 04-15-2007, 04:32 PM

((L))

Maybe he gets the blues like us?

Love,

Sherry

eddie z. · 04-16-2007, 05:50 AM

Good morning, all!! My husband says that his border collie, Dusty, had floppy ears as a puppy and that one day they just went "pwink" and stood up. So maybe Doo has the opposite happening with him, although I'm having trouble imagining a Chihuahua with floppy ears.

Grateful for my OA sponsor. I have REALLY been having problems with my eating and weight and I think she has made some good suggestions.

And grateful for all y'all and that this thread is still going!! I was just sharing in a meeting yesterday about the importance of gratitude and I figured I should put my money where my mouth is, you know?

Now I need to go read my meditations and go to work. Hope you all have a wonderful week!!

Love and hugs,
Eddie

Aysha · 04-16-2007, 06:01 AM

Well another day. Now mornings are my bedtime since I work overnights again.

Grateful I had lot and lots of energy at work. I needed it.

Grateful it is raining not snowing.

Grateful my grams is happy.

Grateful I wiil have some income now.

Grateful For my wonderful family.

And grateful as always for everyone here.

Lbad · 04-16-2007, 07:31 AM

So good to see Eddie here

I asked the Vet about depression (she knows my dog well) and she laughed at me. She said no worries so I am not worried. Well I am trying to not be freaked out by it. lol

**Astro** · 04-16-2007, 08:49 AM

How is Doo doing L?? Hope he's looking better, not so dorky;-)

Hi Eddie, great to see you again!

Grateful for an evening with my children. Think I'll take them for a spin around the block on my new scooter!
