Grateful for the killer lamb shanks and gravy my DH made for dinner tonight.

CarolD · 04-14-2012, 07:23 PM

Grateful my red and white flowers are doing splendidly ...

Hope the blue Hydrangea will bloom this year.

Good night....

Scolova · 04-14-2012, 07:52 PM

Grateful others are getting 'it' done too.
More work done in the our flower beds today, lots of progress and looking so much better.
Got notice that a beloved cousin is going to come visit Mom and me in June, haven't seen her in decades. I'm a bit nervous as I really don't have lots of 'life' stories to share (no wife, no kids, no job etc...) due to all my drinking, but I do have my sobriety and strength.

Grateful for chocolate brownie mix to help keep me awake

Scolova · 04-15-2012, 12:11 AM

I stayed awake and went grocery shopping...
a lady and her son had a dead battery in the parking lot

(at midnight), I had the cables so I jumped it. So I ... ended up making someone else grateful tonight.

Really grateful for freshly ground coffee and homemade potato pancakes.

Fandy · 04-15-2012, 05:21 PM

grateful i found something that i thought i lost

CarolD · 04-15-2012, 05:23 PM

IndaMiricale · 04-15-2012, 08:15 PM

Grateful for the fee VIP passes to Red Hot Chili Peppers show. Also got to met George Clinton. So nice to be sober to remember these things. What a great weekend.

Sleep well all.

LDT · 04-15-2012, 08:49 PM

Grateful the lunch with my parental units was brief and uneventful. Grateful I'm me and not them.

karilynn27 · 04-15-2012, 09:43 PM

Grateful for my family.

raindancer11 · 04-15-2012, 11:28 PM

grateful to have something to be grateful for tonight. Today was one of the days that I could have done without but in hindsight will be a point of growth for me. Will need to face the music tomorrow but am grateful to have supportive family and friends who forgive my mistakes and love me anyway.

**Astro** · 04-16-2012, 05:50 AM

Grateful that my daughter joined me for church and our family community group.

Fandy · 04-16-2012, 05:50 PM

grateful that this day is pretty much over...i'm tired, frustrated, sarcastic and grumpy, but will feel better tomorrow..., it's just a mood.
(and sheesh that witch Brooke Burke looks like her face shrunk in the wash, her alimony from her plastic surgeon husband must include free procedures)
it's got to get better at some point.
grateful that i paid all my bills

Zencat · 04-16-2012, 05:55 PM

Grateful for my 3 sisters.

Rusty Zipper · 04-16-2012, 05:56 PM

LDT · 04-16-2012, 06:33 PM
