Grateful that it's bedtime. It's been a long day.

Grateful for the spiritual reality that resurfaces after the mind and emotions have gotten rest. Grateful for the opportunities to go through the things with my sponsees that are almost exactly like the stuff my sponsor went through with me. Grateful that i am committed to completely surrendering to God's will, as it is revealed to be for me.

Grateful for...

...another beautiful morning. Doing some housecleaning (uh-oh...I already broke the vacuum cleaner), maybe go fishing this evening. Just going to let the day unfold as it will.

Grateful that the computer glitch that "removed me from this discussion" on Gratitude is fixed now.


Grateful it's almost time for bed and that I can snuggle with my dogs and escape into sleep away from this horrible day.

Grateful for having a slumber party for son with a total of 4 six year olds.

Grateful its on a Friday night and that doesn't seem unusual or impossible to go a night without drinking so my son can have fun.
