Renaming this thread because you ALL contribute regularly and more regularly then myself lately. The name goofed up and maybe one of our mods can fix it at their convenience. Suppose to read "Part 5 - Grat Pack's 10 nightly gratitude items and more"
Grateful for being snowed in with my family these last few days.
Grateful for being healthy and strong enough to shovel our drive out of 2 feet of snow.
Grateful for friends coming over to share Christmas Eve with us.
Grateful for celebrating Christ's birthday tonight with a birthday cake as is our tradition.
Grateful for REUB returning to SR and being able to read all of her news. 3 dogs is a great thing, girl!!! I wouldn't mind another, but talking my husband into it would be difficult. We also have the 2 cats that don't get along right now. No, I don't think it would work for us, but HAPPY its working for you!!!! Your Aunt is smiling on you for sure.
Grateful for this past year and the stronger faith that's been built upon the chaos that was in my life. Leaning more often on God then I was before.
Grateful that I have this place to come to and that I feel like I have a family here. Love you one and all!
Merry Christmas to you all and may you enjoy good health and many blessings!

Merry Christmas everyone and soon we will be upon a new year!
Grateful for so many things, but to just start with I'm grateful for -
God and the strength provided to me from him each and every day.
Good health!
My son and husband.
My Mom.
Inspiring people here and in real life as well.
My animals.
Our move that is fast approaching.
Our realtors that have made it all possible on both ends of selling and buying.
My husband's employer.
Memories of the past and looking onward to the future.
Friends that will always be close in my heart despite the distance in miles.
Rescues.
Moving trucks.
Internet AND SOBRIETY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you are all well and surrounded by warmth.

Grateful for two years of sobriety TODAY!!!!!
Life is so much better than it was two Christmases ago - physically, emotionally, spiritually, financially - pretty much every way there could be.
Thanks to you all for your amazing support and care - I've learned so much from each of you, you've kept me going with your friendship and humor, and I truly don't know where I'd be without you.
Love you all very much!

congrats on your 2 years Sneeze! (i hope I can say that one day)
yes, all that $$ you've saved by not buying booze is amazing isn't it??

Thanks Fands - and what better place indeed?
Definitely saved a lot of $$$ - and not only on alcohol, but also on things that I thought I needed and wanted but really didn't, as I was just trying to fill up a big hole inside.
Fandy, you've taught me so much, especially about maintaining a sense of humor and perspective when I feel like running around like Chicken Little squawking that the sky is falling. Rule 62, ya know. And also about not allowing myself to be anyone's doormat. Love that strength you have
Thanks for your support and care, my buddy

Congratulations! Way to go my dear friend, Sneezy! I bet you are pretty proud of yourself and you should be. I love coming here and seeing your posts. The day isn't complete without a cup of coffee and seeing everyone's grats. I miss Reub's, but I know she is well and is just busy.
I'm grateful for Sneezy being 2 years sober!! That's a great achievement in and of itself. Love you!!!

Love you too, HL my pal
From you I've learned patience, strength and persistence, and finding a path to feeling grateful when the path seems entirely covered up with brambles You've had your share of those this year but you kept your head up!
Thank you for your care and belief in me, HL!

lol I feel a little bit like Dorothy thanking the Scarecrow and Tinman right before she clicks her ruby slippers and goes home to Kansas
I'm not going home to Kansas and I don't have any ruby slippers, but I love easing on down the road with you guys
