Promises Kept

Today I am so grateful for the promises made by AA, and for the grace of God which continues to amaze a humble drunk like me.
Specifically:
I am celebrating my 55th day of sobriety following a failed suicide attempt on July 18th.
I have been re-hired to my job by an understanding employer who recognizes my God-given talents and sees the goodness in my soul.
I have been blessed with a new, caring group of friends in AA.
Life is good!
I pray for those who still suffer, and that I may be of some service to them.
And thank God for this forum!

Here's a lullalby for ya Stoney if you're still up..


Baby mine don't you cry

Baby mine dry your eyes

Rest your head close to my heart, never depart

Baby of mine

From your head to your toes

You're so sweet goodness knows

You are so precious to me, you'll always be,

Baby of mine.


It's from the movie.."Dumbo".

My son had me sing that every night (ecxept when I was so sick)

till he was real big..

It was his birthday yesterday. My big 23 year old baby in the Navy.

Missing him a lot..grateful to be his mama.

Grateful to have got a little sleep again.

Grateful I can feel my brain beginning to work a bit better after 10 days sober or however long it is.

Grateful for friends.

I am so grateful for this gratitude forum, because the two things I have been trying to put into my life are Gratitude and keeping it Simple. So this will really help me with remembering to be grateful...So today I am very grateful for my grandchildren and my furry kids....
