I am grateful... - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Fiona630 · 09-29-2008, 11:34 AM

I am grateful that I am alive today. I am grateful that I got up this morning with no hangover and got my child off to school. I am grateful my husband still loves me despite some of the really bad, stupid things I did while drunk off my ass, not thinking of him or us at all during those moments. I am grateful that I have made it 10 days sober and I have the chance to sit here and be grateful and appreciate what I still have and how easily I could have lost it.

Thanks emmer and IO storm!

being sober has made me take a step back and really look at things. I know its only been 10 days, but still...I really want it this time. I actually spent a weekend sober...do u know how long its been since i have done that? A long time. I have quit so many times before, as everyone else has, but this time is different. This time it seemed like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. And I am grateful for that! Im grateful for everyone on here that I have encountered so far for being so nice and warm. Im glad I found this website.
