Mibluebird....my dogs would very much like to come for a visit after seeing your photo

Grateful the roof stayed on the house last night even though the wind kept me up all hours.

Grateful icing my knees and arches meant I woke up pain free from last nights run.

Grateful I have some new marketing ideas to check out.

Grateful for a terrific night's sleep. Grateful for my first blooming flower out in the yard. Grateful for half-decent bagels in the freezer. Grateful for sobriety.

MIBlueBird . . . nice photo, pretty squirrel!

AG, I have a black thumb so I too am always so grateful for the first blooming flower in our backyard. So much so, I took a pic for my cell phone wallpaper and it reminds me to be grateful for simple beauty throughout the day

Grateful for chamomile tea..before becoming sober I thought it tasted like dirty water but now I drink tons of it and really appreciate its mild unpretentious flavor

A great grateful day to all

  • Grateful for continued beautiful weather with lots of sunshine
  • Grateful for my back yard that's like a nature center with beautiful birds and other critters
  • Grateful for the comments on my squirrel photo (he was so cute)
  • Grateful that alcohol is no longer controlling my life and I'm looking forward to healthy activities
  • Grateful that when I just went through McDonald's, I didn't order a super sized value meal because I'm not hungover
  • Grateful for all of your posts...they make me smile and lift my spirits every day

Grateful to have had a solid sleep last night. Went to bed at 8:30 and woke up at 4:45 a.m. with one washroom break. Excellent sleep compare to the days of drinking and waking up from a crap sleep only to find a bout of severe anxiety attacking my body and mind.

Grateful to be refreshed and looking forward to a productive day working within my business

Grateful to be already thinking about what to cook for supper for the kids

Grateful to be making a plate of fresh fruit this morning (watermelon, strawberries, grapes, honeydew melon, apples) along with some scrambled eggs and toast.

Grateful to be able to do MOM things for my kids and be excited about it... heck I may even bake a cake or cookies this weekend (I never bake anything) my 14 daughter does, but I always say I don't have time, this weekend I am going to schedule it.

Grateful for International Coffee

Grateful for the warm temperatures

Grateful that I have already picked up the stuff the Easter bunny will need to delivery and hide around my house for the kids

Grateful that my little girl has been invited to two birthday parties on the weekend and that I am not concern about scheduling my drinking to accommodate it... it is just a given I can drive anywhere / anytime.

Grateful that I have accepted I have no control over alcohol and I am so okay with that

Grateful for love, serenity, happiness, health, necessities of life, and all of you

Grateful to have made it to April 14, 2011 and still have my health and relationships -- I will be forever grateful for this blessing

Good morning GP!

I'm oh so grateful for six months of sobriety today.

I'm grateful for SR and the GP for helping to make that possible.

I'm grateful for the sunshine, warmer weather, and longer days.

Have a great day all!

Oh my, it is starting to get light outside and I see that what was dirt in the driveway and green grass yesterday is now snow covered. Okay, grateful that it does look beautiful and so clean.

Grateful for this thread.

Grateful reading ItWillBeWorthIt's MOM stuff, that makes me tear up with happiness thinking of her kids.

Grateful for my fuzzy wuzzy super dooper trooper Good Boy Dog.

Grateful for knowing I did my taxes and all is in order, what a wonderful sense of personal accomplishment and peacefulness. I think they went easier because my head is clearer from not drinking.
