I am grateful that moods don't stay the same and if we just get up and do something different we can change the way in which we are feeling

Grateful for all who are here each day for support and friendship!

I am grateful to feel comfortable enough with myself to be able to make decisions at work and stick with them and not end up second-guessing myself.

I am grateful this morning that I have started one of my old threads in the NA Forum again, and have more time in life if I just put one foot in front of the other.

Grateful for people in the Program that call me when I don't show up.

Grateful that I can be here clean again this morning.

I am grateful for the simple pleasure of a good book - a light read, a book to get lost in for just a little while, a book that is laugh-out-loud funny in places, a book that has no real redeeming value except to bring a little joy into my life.

I am grateful for this amazing community of people who make our SR 'home' and for how hard we all work to make it a comforting and safe place to visit.

OK I am not blond however I am grateful that I was in a car wreck going to a morning meeting and that no one was hurt. I am grateful that the guy was ranting and raving and it reminded me of how I used to be and still can be on somedays but today I kept calm and did the right thing for the right reason.

Ughh

Way to Go Carol on the 40! at least today it isn't a 40 to drink

Grateful that I can stop when I need to...

Might have to make some amends at SR again! Oh yes the Process of learning to live without using sometimes isn't that easy!

Uggghhhhh feeling OK tonight. Need to learn to just step back and leave out my opinions sometimes

I am grateful to be able to come home, at the end of an awful day at work, to a calm, quiet and peaceful home.
