Grateful to read your grats tonight. Particularly good stuff all around, folks!

Grateful to be able to provide for myself through hard work. Grateful my life has done a 180 since I quit drinking. Grateful for friends, support, kindness.

Grateful that a work-related ordeal looks like it's finally going to be resolved soon, and for the first time in a little over two weeks, the stress has lifted & I can relax. The Lord got me through ANOTHER one............................

Gotta love those little black Lab ears, right?

I hate that I missed getting on here last night. I probably would have gone to bed feeling much better than I did if I had. Last night's posts were awesome!

ANyway....grateful this morning for a little bit more surrender and willingness to really dive into the program here.

And grateful for sitting in the hot tub with a couple of the other patients here and having more conversation than I'm usually involved in these days. Glad I chose to participate!

Happy Friday the 13th, all!!
Love and hugs,
Eddie

I am grateful tonight that my 14 year old daughter got hired on the spot for a job she wanted for the summer... bike or walking distance, no late hours, calm environment. I am so happy and proud of her.

Grateful that I picked up some wonderful vegetable bedding plants and the whole family helped plant and weed the strawberries.

Grateful to be excited about my garden and flowers and trees this year.

Grateful to have a busy day planned tomorrow.

Grateful to now be mellowing down for a quite evening... vegs and dip, crackers, cheese and pickles for supper. And going to watch a movie. Popcorn later.

Grateful to be sober, enthusiastic and have no desire to drink

Have a wonderful Friday evening everyone.

Grateful to be in a nice hotel room with my sleeping dog, here safe and sound. Grateful I am able to distance myself from a little bobble that happened instead of making it mean all or nothing. Easier to see my stuff with sober eyes. So much to learn. Gnite!

lol - Carol - how come I don't receive divine intervention before I insert foot in mouth? Can you pass some of that around?

Grateful for Amazon MP3 downloads - been singing all night!

Amazed at how far we've come from the DOS based computers from the days of yore! This computer is awesome!

Grateful it's the weekend and I am going to get rid of a lot of JUNK (if I haven't used it in six months, it's a goner)

Grateful for the realization that what I need will come to me when I need it, so there is no use holding on to all this stuff....

'Tis a gift to be simple.

Have a good night, all........


Have a good night all.....
