Grateful to have found all of you and your amazing open hearts.

Grateful for an electric clothes dryer on this rainy day.

Grateful for rain, it makes springtime all shades of green.

Grateful for Netflix. Because, you know, I can't be all spiritual all the time.

Never let it be said that I am a deep thinker, but I love a good drama on TV. I'm watching Scandal this week.

Grateful for Drama on TV and not in Real Life.

..and we've come full circle.

Grateful for day 11, and to hear of Ipanema's upcoming anniversary. It can be done!

Grateful for a good (longggggg) day at work, and coming home to a snack, a warm bath, and some cozy jammies. Since it's still chilly out, grateful for having a fire to curl up to.

Grateful for another day of sobriety and all the wonderful inspiration here.

Grateful to surprise my grandson with a visit. Brought him a few Easter gifts but of course what did he love the most? The $1.50 strobe light bunny ring I bought him on a whim last night. Haha.

Grateful for a lovely visit with his Mommy and a supper together... just the three of us.

Grateful to miss my Mother this holiday with all my heart, and take my love for her and pour it onto others that I also love, who are still here on earth.

Going dark and time off the grid.
Trance states.
That the stray cat pink zen has finally adopted me after 3 years.
For a new hobby, gardening (and my backyard turning into paradise) one f&$@ng magical spot.
For just kinda being.

Be Kind to Youself.

Grateful to have 3 months without alcohol. Day 94!

Grateful blood work came back with improved health results!

Grateful to not be caught in the grips of booze.

I know what it's like to have to go to the store to buy alcohol...to need to drink.

I have been set free of that.

One day at a time.

Thank you God

Grateful to talk through a big disappointment I suffered (both silently in my head and out loud to the dog lol) until I could get my head in a better place.

Grateful for the serenity prayer.

Grateful for perspective.

And, Grateful to Dee, whose wise, generous, and graceful sobriety inspired me (then and now) to stay the course.

Grateful for a Good Friday Stations of the Cross in the church garden today. The roses were gorgeous.

Grateful for an exceptional workshop/class on PTSD today.

Grateful for a pretty good day all in all and grateful for some good people I ran into and some new people I met today.

Grateful to be scheduled to work tomorrow (Sat) which will make it 7 weeks in a row of a 58 hour work week. I'll deal with another day of insanity, because the extra money (time and a half) trumps me being insane at work.

Grateful it's getting closer to my only sane day of the week, Sunday, the only day I have off lately. The other 6 days (Mon-Sat) is pure insanity.

Grateful for pizza night (Fri) for dinner.

Grateful to be surprised by what movie I'm going to go out and see this weekend.

Grateful for an active but then later, slow and quiet day. Still getting used to "downtime" and less self destruction.
