Grateful one big piece of wreckage has been cleared.
Grateful that I can laugh at myself for losing sleep last night worrying about new challenges.

Grateful that venus is home. ((Hugs!)) Keep healing!!

Grateful for sweet, ripe, summer berries.

Grateful for the hint of fall in the air...a subtle reminder that my favorite season is just around the bend.

Today I wake up and feel grateful for many things, first reading about the celeb's that have recently died from addiction makes me so sad, but grateful I am sober today.
I am grateful for:
another sober morning
a great nights sleep
money in the bank for the first time in a long time
my wonderful Indian dinner last night even though today it hurt a bit
my amazing job and coworkers
my X who is working well with me lately co-parenting
the compliments I got at work yesterday, while last night I still wanted to think they were just messing with me since I have esteem issues, I am allowing myself to just feel good about them.
The fact that it is Friday morning here and I had another sober week! 8 days today and counting closely!
Thankful for SR.

Grateful to wake clear headed.
Grateful that my nerves about a dinner on Sat night are nerves because I don't want to disappoint myself and I won't.
Grateful that two sticks and a ball of wool can help me ignore AV.

Grateful I slept.
Grateful to use my distress about the shorterm to guide me in my planning.
Grateful to not let myself escalate emotionally..... but still allow myself to get emotional about it all.

If I were still drinking instead of ruminating about where the dog and I will be living in the shorterm I'd be ruminating about picking a situation to live where I could still drink all I needed to.

Grateful those days are behind me and to remember I've been in worse situations.
Any worst situation while sober... trumps the best situation addicted.

^^^ As Stacia said.

Grateful that I can do this.
Grateful that if I remember to breathe my thought are just thoughts and nothing to be afraid of.
Grateful for a lovely day.

Grateful my headache is just stress and not a hangover.

Grateful for my sister (my realtor) who worked so hard with me to get my house a buyer
and who is working so hard with me to help me nail down housing now
and doesn't take a penny from me, ever. Always uses her commissions to help me in the bargaining.
