Aly, I'm proud of you for keeping those firm boundaries with your sisters!
Grateful to be working a half day today so I can take a road trip to do an overnight hike with my son.

Grateful for a kind of laid back day. I have found that I am usually tired the day after my infusion and then hopefully the energy will kick in soonish. 
Grateful for the wisdom of these threads, meetings, books, and all of you for support with keeping firm boundaries with my sister who may or may not be sober. After the anger passed, I tried praying for her. I hope it helps.
Grateful for all of you so much, esp on days like today when I'm feeling kind of vulnerable. Sleep well everyone. ♥♥♥

Aly, glad you are keeping boundaries with your sisters. I think boundary work is one of the hardest parts of emotional sobriety. I have to be careful myself because I have codependency issues, and I can get lost in this with those I love.
Daisy, hope you feel better soon
Grateful for least picture of Billie
Grateful my son is at a sleepover and I had a nice dinner out and time with husband. Grateful we’ll be staying up late to watch Ozark on Netflix
Grateful I completed most of a special work assignment ahead of schedule and for positive feedback from my boss
Grateful to feel grounded in sobriety

Congrats listae!!! Wonderful.
Thank you Fearless, Numblady, Astro and Daisy. And anyone I may have missed. Your support means the world to me.
Grateful for all the support I get here. My family has the ability to tie me in knots and I am really trying to stay away from my sisters as much as possible.
Grateful for a nice talk with a neighbor on my walk with Luke.
Grateful for you all so much! ♥♥♥

Listae, congrats on 101 days sober! 
This evening I am grateful that Billie interacted with my cat Franny and was polite and non threatening with her.
Just a little butt sniffing and Billie didn't chase her.
Grateful for three dog walks today! I am in heaven now that it's spring and can take Billie for lots of walks.

Aly, I feel your pain, certain members of my family tie me in knots too, it can be very draining. At least we're not drinking over it, we have that to be grateful for.
Fearless I can relate with your codependancy issues, it's something I'm working on in myself.
Grateful to be going to bed sober on a Saturday night.
Grateful to try a new recipe that was successful.
Grateful to see that lovely photo of Least's Billie.
Grateful for Listae's 101 sober days, that's a fantastic achievement.
Grateful we don't have to check each other out the same way as Billie & Franny.
Grateful for a hot bath and fresh p.j's.
Grateful to be here with you all. xx

Grateful to be going to one of my neighbor's b-day parties late this afternoon, although I don't think I'll stay too long, I'm a little tired.
Grateful, that although it hasn't been accepted, I apologized to my niece profusely regarding a text I wrote her that was a misunderstanding. Weird family.
Grateful I seem to be sleeping well at night lately.
Grateful for all of you and to see your lovely grats. Gives me a peaceful feeling.
Love to all. ♥♥♥

Grateful to be ending the weekend sober.
Grateful my heavy cold is on it's way out ( I hope).
Grateful for an afternoon home alone.
Grateful not to even think about drinking when I was home alone. There was a time...........
Grateful for a drama free day.
Grateful my husband was thoughtful and bought me a gardening kneeler to use when I'm weeding and planting.
Grateful for a telephone conversation with my mum and grateful her heavy cold is much better.
Grateful to be here with you all walking the walk.xx
