I'm grateful I am taking time to make sound decisions today, rather than to act impulsively and pay the consequences later.

I'm grateful that I have another chance to be healthy, happy, and a good contributor to the people & world around me once again. I could have killed myself or someone else this last go-round. I'm grateful to not be drinking today!!!

i am grateful today for what others define as my character defect of stubborness, tho I choose to refer to it as tenacity, determination.

I am grateful I remain willing to be teachable.
I am grateful today..I can honestly admit what I do not know.

I am grateful it is progress and not perfection..I'd fail in a heartbeat if perfection were required.
I am grateful today is comin gto a close...Pillow talk on the way..
For those who do not know me...I live alone so the pillow talk is to My Creator, the Great Spirit of the Universe

Thumbs up Family

I am grateful to have my husband & boys support my soberiety. I am very grateful that my family isnt as judgemental on my healthier life(not drinking). Some have become more open too it and have asked me about AA and other resources to "stop drinking." It's amazing.
