Thank you God, for my former work partner, whom I still get to work with on occasion and we make a great team.

Thank You God that, after a rough day in the beginning, I am doing better. I think extra sleep makes such a huge difference.

Thank You God for the support of Family and Friends while I going thru some Medical Issues. The Neuropathy settles down quite a bit if I sit and no nothing. That can't last long and, in this small apartment, things start getting out of hand quickly. I have a friend coming over just to organize a bit with me which is so nice.

Thank you God for the physical, mental, and spiritual capabilities that allow me to show up sober and nicotine free for life today.

Thank you God, for handling my finances. Left to my own devices I'd surely muck them up.

Thank you God for the knowledge that your will is always right and that you guide me in the right direction and give me strength even at my weakest

Thank You God for what you have given me in Sobriety and the knowledge that everything happens for a reason. I ponder this often and Acceptance is the reason I stay Sober and helps me immensely to get thru the day.

Thank You God that I have people to call on when I am unable to do things for myself. The Neuropathy pain has greatly increased and I need help with errands and chores.

Thank You God that I am financially okay to the point I can afford outside help, at least til the surgeey on the 26th. It will be wonderful to just wash the dishes and enjoy a sparkling clean kitchen again.

Thank You God for the posts everyday from people like: grtgarntpa and Astro who are so honest and inspiring. The things I need to hear to stay Sober seem to come up just when the message helps what's going on that day. All the years I worked I found it imperative to do at least one meeting a day. Now that I am home, and rarely can get to a meeting, the site is immensely helpful. ((((hugs)))) especially to grtgrandpa and Astro

Thank you God for the ability to adapt to the aging process which requires change to ease the pain, and survive the pain while still feeling the joy of love even when we are home alone.

Thank you for SR which allows me to ((((((((Ipanema)))))))) today.

And if nobody told you that they love you today, I do.

Ipanema, I wish I could make it to a meeting but God is providing me with such an abundance of work and a break from my arthritis so I know when it's time He'll give me a little break to make it to AA. In the meantime, yes, thank you God for SR!

Thank You God for my Sister who is loving and supportive. She is helping this weekend before surgery while the pain level is high.

Thank You God for Urgent Care where I am going up the street when they open. I read on the Neuropathy site that they can give you a saline shot to help with pain.

we change, things get different

Thank you God for ((((((((EQandIppyetal)))))))) living in recovery which turns pain into love as we learn to handle each change which shows up with each increment of time.

Without the pain caused by the labyrinth of nerves throughout our bodies, we could not feel the love. Ippy, I know it hurts, and self-centered me is glad I don't feel it right now.

OK everybody give IPPY a hug.

Thank you God for a new day. Thank you for bringing my husband home safely this morning and showing him that he needs to stop drinking as well.
And hugs to Ippy bc one can never be shown too much love.

(((Ipanema))) Lots of comforting hugs for you.

A friend of mine passed away from leukemia yesterday. Thank you God, for giving him a glorious new body and welcoming him into Your loving arms.
