Grateful for the detour on the interstate that got me onto the back roads.
Grateful for lilacs, cherry trees, dogwoods, apple trees and azaleas, all blooming at peak now.
Ended up going on Rte 40, which took me through the heart of farm country.
Grateful for the beautiful area I live in and thankful to own a home - something I thought would never happen for me.
Grateful for the memory of my brother, who crossed my mind quite frequently today. Grateful the memories have turned to the happier memories instead of my last memories.
Live life to the fullest, guys, it's all too friggin' short.....
Have a good night.....

Grateful to stay out of other people’s drama and not create my own by drinking.
Grateful for a peaceful day, great super, and quite family time... now some me time, reading a great book.
Have a wonderful sleep everyone!

Super-congratulations of quitting smoking, IO!! I went through that and it sucks, but you're past the worst for sure.
And Sneezy, I relate to the stuff about your dad. Mine seems to be developing some dementia and he gets so frustrated and escalated over the littlest things these days.
CArol, MMMmmmm....watermelon!!
GRateful for a helpful sort of mini phone session with my home therapist this morning. He knows me too well to let me get away with my usual M.O., even from a great distance.
And grateful for a "successful" lunch out with the group from the treatment center today. I accepted a challenge rather than playing it safe and it turned out pretty well. VEry encouraging.
Nighty-night, folks!
Love and hugs,
Eddie

I am so so grateful tonight ....
I thought I had really screwed something up at work and I've been worried about it for weeks now. Well, today, my prayers were answered. The problem went away ... POOF! (I'll spare you the long explanation - suffice it to say, someone with power changed their mind
)
YEE-HOOOOOOOOOOOO!
And thank you God, so so much for looking out for me. I won't make that mistake again!

Honesty time people.
I had "the talk" with the husband. Told him that my truth is that alcohol is a problem for me and that I am now a non-drinker. Not just taking a break because of training for a race. He is completely normal about alcohol. He doesn't know about my shame and how my drinking was increasing.
He said: That sounds good. Do you want me to stop drinking? Because I will if that will help you.
Oh my goodness, I am so grateful for this good man.
