Grace joining us on the Grat threads and having collected a cool 30

that I have more control over my mouth

Today I am grateful for:

Waking up, feeling well and looking well.

My workfriend returning to work after her first holiday in 4 years. her husband is a recovering alcoholic who hasn't had a drink for those 4 years, she was worried about him being tempted on holiday. He wasn't, the holiday was just what they both needed and she has returned to work relaxed and happy. Today, I am truly grateful for that.

I am grateful to Rusty Zipper and Instant for making me feel good by acknowledging my 30 days of sobriety. Woo hoo!

Big hugs

Gxx

Today I am thankful for:
~ my 5 pet chickens who provide me with hours of entertainment (and fresh eggs!)
~ getting things done around the house with ease
~ getting closer to having our old house ready to put on the market
~ all the physical work I am having to do at our old house which is building muscles!
~ delicious breakfasts and the appetite to consume them!

Today I am greatful for: My God, he has blessed me in so many ways! My family and my children whom are so supportive of my recovery. I am greatful to have stumbled onto this site, I think this place could be a very important outlet for me. I am greatful for the cool weather here in Ohio, and I am greatful to be sober.

Today i am grateful for waking up sober again

The hot water boiler in the office kitchen being fixed so I can make myself a cup of tea.

My cardigan, because it's blooming chilly in here this morning.

Life and all it's ups and downs

Today and everyday, I am grateful for my family. This would be sooo much harder without their love and unwavering support. I am grateful that my efforts have brought them such joy and pride.
