Today I am grateful to have chosen to stop drinking now rather than later.

The fluttering flags
The sparkles in the pavement
To bananas for a dollar- just when I needed them
Minature art
Everyone who has made my day possible
The words

Grateful that my free cable channels that showed up magically last month disappeared this week. They had nothing on them and now I am back to watching my public tv which is much better..

Grateful tonite on NJ tv there was a great shiw on urban planning and then interviews with arab american artists and musicians . Its the REAL reality tv!

Grateful it always makes me feel positive and want to make rhe world a better place. (Long island medium and Madmen never left me feeling that way!)

I am grateful for God, My husband, kids, dogs...all my blessings. And for knowing i have to treat myself with love and respect too, by stopping the hurting myself with alcohol. self medicatiing my feelings and just instead feeling them..praying about them and talking about them. Not hiding alone and drinking to numb myself out.

Life is to precious and I am thankful!

The rawness of the truth I find on this site. Every day.
A swamp tour this weekend.
Being able to experience the deep sacredness of those moss draped cathedral trees every time I close my eyes and remember...

Today I am grateful that I had the energy and time to do several hours of concentrated homework after working all day.

Also for butternut squash. I inadvertently made butternut squash fries today, and they were gooooood.

Actually feeling some genuine spontaneous enthusiasm about my life and my plans for the future.
I never feel like this in any continuos way. It is startling to me.

My family
Money to pay bills

My garden
The warm breeze
The smell of Spring

Courage to deal with the neighbors on each side of me to solve problems with a shared drive and collapsing garage on one side, and a bamboo invasion in the other.
To push forward with some momentum to ready the house for sale, and go for it. Bring it on.
To finally just rip off the bandaid... in one full sweep. It is time.

the internet allowing me to stay in touch
The sun through the window

Sweet memories.
Time set aside for prayer & meditation.
The gentle cool breeze blowing through my kitchen window.
My computer.
My HP who continually has my back.

Grateful for picking up my Moms watch from the jeweler. I'm so happy to have it fixed and cleaned ....and feel her on my wrist... and remember her wearing it when I was little.
Grateful that she would be so proud of me if she could see me now. She would be happy, proud, relieved, excited and amazed.
