Grateful to be able to watch the cockatoo's this morning from my kitchen window. They're the funniest birds. They come in to the city this time each year to feed.

thats a fantastic time Kevin, congratulations!

after listening to you and Lbad quietly expound the benefits of exercise, I've finally made a decision....I've got a bike, just have to pump up the tires and I'm off for my first ride today.

It didn't happen Lbad. I got all ready to go and it was discovered the brakes weren't connected.

Grateful I didn't have to literally scream down the hill.

grateful that I woke up this morning and not hungover or in withdrawals. Feel like hell but at least I'm alive and I CAN feel.

I am grateful that I got to go to another detox meeting last night (my second)

I am grateful that I am 10 days sober today, which is a miracle!

I am grateful that every time I ask Him to, God shows me a way that I can help another person.

I am grateful for the wonderful people in the AA program who prove every day that they are willing to do anything to help a fellow alcoholic!
