Grateful that we can stuff our faces and watch the Super Bowl today without drowning ourselves in alcohol

Grateful for our woodburner, we can keep warm even though the underfloor heating has packed up (on the coldest day of the year!)

Grateful that it will be fixed tomorrow (hopefully).

I am so incredibly grateful for the flood of good wishes from the people on SR today when I was feeling lonely and blue.

Grateful that I can see that I'm better to be around when I'm sober.

Grateful to D, who barely knows me but called me and is going to meet me tomorrow.

Grateful to be indoors and warm.

Grateful to have met someone as caring and kind as J, and for talking with her today.

Grateful that I'm learning that the only thing that matters is people.

I'm grateful for starting to get my life in order. I can't sleep tonight but my beautiful fiancé is in bed next door and I can hear the drunken aftermath of football fans heading home after the Rangers - Celtic game and causing trouble as they go. I know where I'd rather be.

Grateful for Misha Collins. I know I will almost certainly never meet or talk to him, but he touches my heart. I woke up yelling from a nightmare last night and when I finally fell back to sleep, he was in my dream and gave me a big hug. Thank you, Misha! (I know. I'm goofy.)

Grateful for being honest with my oldest friend in the world about my hurt feelings. Glad I am WORKING on relationships now instead of "shopping" for perfect friends. I was in a real mess when I had The Flu recently and I really didn't have the social support I would have liked, so now I'm trying to do something about it.

Grateful we got a foot of snow and not using that as an excuse to drink.

Grateful that things aren't perfect and not using that as an excuse to drink.

Grateful when things are perfect to not use that as an excuse to drink.

Grateful, pathetic though it may sound, for antihistamine. I don't usually suffer from allergies but this summer has been different as it's been quite damp and cooler than normal.
