Grateful for the reminder from the Pooch on just how to ease into a Monday. Retrievers retrieve Pillows. Good smells, apparently.

Grateful that there's Music around to help ease us out of Funks by.-) Been there. Felt that. 2 Sets of Parents. Close Friends. Former Students of my Teacher Wife's. 3 prior Golden Retrievers. Hope springs eternal.

I Got You Babe ~ Groundhog Day

((((((Venuscat)))))) I love to make you smile because you are lovable.

I loved the movie again, and the groundhog saw his shadow yesterday so 6 more weeks of winter maybe.

Grateful his prognostications are not a lot better than mine or the weather experts.

Grateful to read everyone's posts here and feel the appreciation and gratitude coming through. Grateful for another morning not hungover, but feeling good. Grateful to be alive and sober. Comfortable chair, music, beautiful sunrise. A whole day before me. Green tea with almond milk. Morning routines. Taking care of myself. Feeling so grateful and happy to be alive. Finding joy I things I love. AA literature in the morning. Recovery comes first and then so much goodness can flow in.

Grateful for those rare, pure moments in which I can love completely and not expect anything in return.

Grateful for a warm puppy dog in my lap (though she's not quite a lap dog) on a cold morning.

MesaMan, that song brought a smile to my face yesterday. I never thanked you for it. So, thanks Three prior goldies? Wow. I can barely imagine losing my Lucy but I know it'll happen.

From The Land Of Fruits And Nuts

Grateful to pop up early outta Bed after a good Schnooze. Might as well. The Dog was taking up most of the Foot room.

Grateful for good Weather that allows cleaning Mud off the Stamped Concrete Porch I drive onto partway to get under cover. Mud City on the Porch, and on my new Truck. Oh, the Humanity!

Grateful for Sobriety that allows me to again do something I used to do in the Orange Groves as a Kid in SoCal: peel a piece of Fruit in one smooth move. My Hands used to shake so badly w/o a morning 'Maintenance' swill of Vodka, I couldn't even sign my name legibly. Never. Ever. Again.

Grateful for 7.5 hours undisturbed sleep
Grateful for all the people in SR who support me even though I don't have the time to be as supportive back as I wish
Grateful for all the things people are mentioning here that to people who don't 'get it' may seem trivial but you can feel the joy coming off the page.
