Congrats and hugs, Scott, on your 11 months sober!!


Grateful for waking up happy and healthy, my dogs the same. Grateful that the little bit of a headache I woke up with isn't from drinking. Grateful for another day to live with joy and thankfulness. Grateful for a good strong cup of coffee to maybe take the headache away.

Grateful to my fellow grat-packers for sharing their joy with me - it brightens up my day!

Grateful to have a doctor to go to today for a complete physical check up and my kids are going as well. When I say this, there are many people that don't have a regular doctor... they would always have to go to outpatients.

Grateful that I am not scared to go to the doctor and having blood work completed... actually I am looking at it as a relief. <finger's crossed> When I was drinking I would have dreaded it.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday everyone!

Grateful for today.

Looking forward to a sober (and hopefully drama free) Turkey Day

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it, happy Thursday to those who don't.

yes, I am so grateful for the Lack of Drama this holiday....last year I was subjected to being made to feel awful and deeply hurt, betrayed from Easter through the grand finale drama of Christmas....talk about Drama with a capitol D!

I never want to be exposed to those type of people again and hopefully will never have that kind of pain inflicted again. i still do not *get* deliberate cruelty by so-called *christians*?? but it's not my problem anymore.

i am very grateful for my family who supports me and loves me. and I am grateful to again participate in some happy times....good food and peace on earth.

grateful for strong coffee and a nice dog walk this morning...because I am having dessert later! grateful for delicious dinner i am looking forward to, pies and cheesecake!

and a bottle of "fancy" water!
