Grateful for Stihl tools. Got outside work to finish that is so much easier with quality tools.

The opportunity to rest and take time off from everything and not because I have a hangover.

Today I am grateful for: completing my 100th consecutive non~drinking day!

And I pray for the strength and grace to cope wisely with whatever comes...

Today I am grateful to come home after a busy day. Grateful that I can recognise when the going is tough and make the necessary mental adjustments

Today I am grateful to be reading a good book by a fave author, on my deck in need of repair, and just NOW realizing it was NOT a trigger to drink for the first time ever!

And, I am not ruining the experience by putting myself down for all that remains undone. I am undone too. Grateful to be a human!

Thanks, EQ, for that great reminder. I've been stalled, perhaps overwhelmed, by all that's undone, but I needn't be. I'm grateful for that. And for posts like EQs to remind me.

Today I am grateful to have enough mental to adjust, and to be aware that to have a chance to be free of the grip of addiction is a precious opportunity.

Thankful that I accept the progressive nature of alcoholism, and not to fight and deny the reality.

Good night all in SR land !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TIAGF
  • Another day to try
  • The connection
  • The senses
  • The awareness
  • The space
  • That I am aware that I will be drawn into connecting with the pain around me and I may be seduced into resisting and struggling.

Grateful for my allergy meds. The pollen and mold spores are out of control here. I feel wretched but without them I'd be laid up in bed, unable to function and thinking "I might as well drink and get some relief. I can't accomplish anything anyway." instead of "Just suck it up and keep taking the meds on time."
