Grateful for the end of the work week. I really overworked myself Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday and was quite useless at my office on Thursday and Friday (well, I posted a lot on SR ). Gotta take better care of myself - overwork leads to being extremely tired leads to negative thinking leads to...

Grateful that Astro started Part 7.

Grateful for the dream I had last night. Setting: A bar. Bartender puts a shot of whiskey in front of me...Coke chaser~ (YUM!) I touched the little shot glass. Pushed it back to the bartender. I said "No."

Upon waking I told my husband about it.

Memory of the dream stayed with me today....day forty-something. It helped me because I spend the day at the lake...came home...spent the day in and near our pool. These are places I could not imagine being near without my vodka and chaser.

So grateful~

Thank you Carol. You were one of the kind people who answered my first post on December 17. Gave me hope when I had none. You have touched so many lives. A part of my recovery, one day at a time. Grateful for an awesome lady.

Uh-oh, I missed Carol's special day

I'm grateful that Carol welcomed me to SR in 2006, and that she continues to be a daily inspiration to my recovery. What an amazing lady she is!

Spent the morning with my sponsor, my friend. Driving in the country. Helped him make an amend to a dear person who passed away.

Spent the afternoon at a small family gathering. Laughing, being myself.

Took the kids to a movie tonight. More laughs and love.

Just when I think my life can't get any better, that I am happy with (and grateful for) everything as it is, I have a day like today.

Grateful for everything I have been blessed with.
