WOW, did I ever sleep in. 6:30 a.m. and I went to bed at 8:00 p.m. must have needed it. Have fun RZ... music is a beautiful thing, although some of my kids favorites I do wonder about. LOL

Grateful for this beautiful Saturday morning and knowing it will be better than yesterday... had a bad day yesterday, but got though it. Going to bed early with my book helped.

Grateful for books... currently reading the book
Living the Simple Life... by Elaine St. James

Halfway through and is a great read, gives me a few more things to incorporated into my crazy world -- little steps will help me make my life simpler.

Grateful to the library for all kinds of wonderful literature.

Have a Silly, Spectacular, Sober, Saturday SR friends.

Grateful that I woke up with energy and a happy heart. That I have already taken the dogs to the DP on this gorgeous fall morning...and that I have so many wonderful people in my life...when I used to have no one.

Grateful that it is Saturday and that my time is my own today. I just have to work on banishing all thoughts of work when they start crowding my mind today.

Mine are repeats of some just mentioned! Grateful for music, and grateful for the internet making it possible to listen to almost any song you can think of whenever you want. What a pleasure on a lazy Saturday morning . ..

I'm grateful that my HP God woke me up today. I'm grateful that I don't have to ever take a drink again, that I can make it through this life in my natural state of mind. I'm grateful for the rooms and the program, without them I'd still be lost. I'm grateful that I've been blessed with two wonderful, witty and beautiful bundles of joy called my kids. Just grateful to be alive and sober.

oops, i'm a little late....grateful for getting housework done, it's good to accomplish regular stuff instead of living in a mess.

grateful for a warm day of 68 degrees in mid-november....i will treat myself to a pedicure later.

grateful it is warm enough to wash up my little dog and let him "air dry"...(he is a 10# Pom with long hair and really needs a bath....i hesitate when the weather is too cool because i don't want him to get a "chill".

Grateful to start this crisp Sunday morning at 2:00 a.m. well just before 2:00 a.m. Hot coffee in hand and a great day planned. Some housework, relaxing, cooking, reading, and just hanging out. No fixed commitments.

Grateful for our wood burning stove -- it just makes the house feel so cozy in the morning.

LOVE that book IWBWI! I read it about 6 or 7 years ago and that is when I started my decluttering kick. I re-read it every year or so because I enjoy it so much.

Grateful for good books, too.

Grateful to get my leaves all raked up yesterday... not so grateful to wake up and see that the remaining leaves had fallen overnight... so it's back to the leaf blower for me! BUT... I'm grateful for the energy and ambition to do things that need to be done.

Grateful for my first cup of coffee giving me a 'kick start' today. Grateful for the dogs lazing on the bed. Grateful to wake up sober and happy... this is getting to be a habit!

I am so grateful that waking up sober and happy and feeling good is now the norm for me. Grateful that my attititude is 180 degrees from what it used to be. Grateful that staying sober has brought me a better life than I'd ever thought possible.

Good morning to my fellow grat packers!
