  • Getting a little work done this morning
  • A yummy breakfast

Today I am thankful for:
  • Cats and drums
  • 796 days cig free, 698 alcohol free and 596 weed free
  • Feeling just really settled in life.
  • Taking steps to be more financially responsible and even starting to do things like saving for retirement. That was never possible when all of my money went to cigarettes, alcohol and drugs.
  • Really making progress at my job. I feel so much better being productive & I no longer feel the nagging guilt I felt when I was drinking/using and I would put off doing things and then worry about needing to do them. Also seeing my hard work reflected in my paychecks!!
  • It's Saturday!!
  • Starting to workout again seriously.
  • Continuing to learn and grow in my recovery.
  • Home-made applesauce.
  • Really feeling good about where I am in my life

DG! Congratulations on two years. You are truly an inspiration to me and have been for as long as I've been coming here. I'm at almost 20 months. We are making new lives.

Today I am thankful for:
  • Cats and drums
  • All of the coping tools I have developed in recovery
  • Expanding my comfort level with doing fix-it stuff around the house
  • Coffee
  • My new phone
  • Bought some paint so I can repaint the inside of my house and I'm really looking forward to the project and the results!
  • Just feeling really fortunate and lucky for all that I have- a house, a car, a good job, being pretty healthy, family & friends & good neighbors, sobriety etc. Really the overall picture of my life is amazing.
