Grateful that staying sober has given me much more energy and ambition - enough to rake the dog yard today (makes it easier to find the canine land mines;)).

Grateful that I had the ability and strength to finally take all my empty beer cans and other bottles to the recycle depot... made $500.00

It really made me think about what all of those bottles cost full. So glad to have them out of my storage shed... and it was just another added reminder that this disease really cost a lot of money to have.

Great day...

I also went to the health food store to spend some of that money on healthy stuff. Oh, the joy of being healthy and feeling great!

Yep, def. grateful to be a drunk in recovery instead of being the mean drunk I used to be.

Good going IWBWI! Glad you're free of the bottles and cans :)

Grateful for a comfortable bed, heat (furnace fixed today, no charge!) and a fridge full of food. Wonderful reminders that even though I'm on a tight budget right now, I CAN pay the bills and I HAVE the things I need while so many others do not.
