Grateful to be sober during the night and day.

Grateful I can be TOTALLY there for my son during the night when illness strikes.

Grateful that I no longer pass out when I lay down. God I am so grateful I don't do that anymore.

Grateful for a job that I can call in to and not feel like I'll be fired.

Grateful that my sobriety is strong enough now that I can easily talk myself out of any cravings for alcohol. Grateful that I still remember how horrible I felt after my last relapse and that I don't want to go back there...
