Grat pack?! I like that a lot
Grateful that yesterday I got some work - despite wishing like mad that I wouldn't get any work!
Very grateful to have found this forum. And grateful that it is humorous too and has made me chuckle this morning
Grateful to have got to 1 week - again! - without an alcoholic drink.

Aw, this is such a good thread.
I'm grateful I got work today - even though I didn't want to go (again. Part 16)
Grateful for my cat, strangely. Who did a very good job of looking after me when I was poorly last week. She has been rewarded with fishy treats.
Grateful for a sunny day when it should really be raining
And grateful for not ruining an otherwise lovely day by having a boozy drink.
Have a lovely day, all of you

grateful for lovely days, and they all are as long as we don't pick up a drink or drug and remain grateful.

grateful you are here Lula.

Grateful that the dogs warm up my bed before I get in it. A nice treat in the winter is getting into a warm bed.

Grateful for enjoying an evening catching up with friends from last job without having to stress about alcohol.
Grateful I've left my old job as it's far too stressful
Grateful for my cat snuggling up in the night (I know where you're coming from with the pets in the bed, least!)
Much love to you all :ghug2
