Grateful that it is September. The summer was long and a emotionally difficult for me so I am looking forward to the fall. I am grateful that I made it through this difficult summer without drinking. Even though I have over 2 years of sobriety, there are still those occasional wishing moments for a drink when life gets "challenging" and I am grateful that I have the strength to get through those moments.
I am grateful to be sober, as I am every morning. But today is the eve of my two-year anniversary of becoming sober, so I am particulary grateful for that moment of clarity two years ago where I saw where I was headed if I kept drinking. Grateful that I took action on my decision to quit, as opposed to the empty alcoholic promises to quit I had made a million times before.
Grateful for a second chance.

I'm grateful I'm not "out there" anymore, drinking. I'm new to SR, and reading posts about these new designer drugs I've never heard of scares the daylights out of me.
This morning, I'm drinking coffee in bed with my lovely cats draped over my legs!

Have to post this morning...gratitude to my brother for helping me with some plumbing last night, so I can take today to at least make headway on my bathroom reno...sure would be nice to have a functioning toilet downstairs again...! And that I was able to acknowledge I needed help; something I tend to not be very good about. That was progress for me!
