Bedtime Gratitude-Part 31
Grateful that the plans I thought I wanted tonite were canceled. When i stopped struggling with the flow i felt immediately better.
Grateful when a new male friend asked me today why i no longer drink, i told him as simply and honestly as i could. Grateful it did not turn him off.
Grateful i took a nap today.
Grateful that i am reading some books that are really affecting me spiritually in new ways. Grateful to grow again.
So so so grateful i have not drank since early Februaty... since clearly sobriety builds on itself. If you build it, consciousness will come.

Grateful my new therapist, whom I worked so hard to obtain, said I really didn't need to be in regular therapy these days. So I "graduated" again from the old reliable on Monday to see this new one and she says I don't need to come back for a month!! Awesome!!
And grateful for a nice walk to and from the hospital listening to the Rutles. I thought I had another appointment there this afternoon, but I was mistaken. So glad I didn't let their not being a "point" to my journey spoil the walk. Today, I can just roll with it. Also awesome!
Love and hugs,
Eddie

The crazy thing is that what I always heard was true, that it progresses even when we are sober/clean/abstinent AND even when I switched to a different addiction, it was worse almost right off the bat than my drug use was when I quit even though I hadn't "used" in years.
Grateful for not making myself accept either of a couple of invitations to go out this evening. I'm PMS-ing and tired and I didn't get to go to the pool like I wanted to, so I'm just postponing the visits...and that's OK. Glad that I know that now.
And grateful Spencer quickly forgave me for taking him to the vet for shots.

Grateful i went down to these condos i am interested in tonight with my dog at dusk,.and watched sunset on river, and walked in the park righf adjacent to the condos. Saw a deer and two babies. All of this is ON a major highway so it is a very unexpected haven.
It will be a challenge to ready my house for sale alone, and downsize. I needed a strong visual for my future and I got it tonight. Thank you God for those deer tonite. I don't know how they got there. They trotted around the little league ballpark fence and off toward a nearby glen.
Thank you for a future dream and a new day tomorrow.
