Thank you God that my family is safe and doing well after the electrical power had been out the past few days before coming back on just a few hours ago!

Thank you God for the tears I had today from a mixture of sadness, gratitude, feeling stressed out, while visiting my mom in an assisted living home and that I don't even think about picking up a drink over that stuff anymore!

I visited my mom in her assisted living place for almost 3 yrs before she died. When she died I didn't cry for her cause I'd already done my crying after our visits. (if they were upsetting)

I am grateful I was sober throughout that time and able to help my mom by visiting and taking care of her cats. I could never have done that if I'd been drinking.

I'm experiencing this right now. I grieved since the beginning of 2014 and I'm glad I was there for my father. As I'm going through his belongings I'm finding good memories that remain.

Thank you God, for the sweet times.

Thank you God, for the days when my children aren't around and I can focus on being the husband and father you created me to be.
