Grateful to see penguin and for inspiration. Can’t imagine going through that!
Midwest, that is so sweet to do that for your mom thanks to FT technology
Lol deserto
Mags. I had a horrible dream last night too. So glad dreams aren’t real. Sometimes they can tell us things that we need to pay attention to; sometimes not. I’m trying to figure out if mine holds some special meaning or call to action.
Grateful to think of Daisy, and hope she is having a wonderful time on her trip

Grateful for my morning routine and workout that I am able to do most days
Grateful to be flexible and be able to adapt readily to change. Actually, I’m still working on that. Typing it out makes me feel more confident!
Grateful for the creative and thoughtful thank you card my son handmade for a classroom guest teacher
Grateful to trust my instincts
Grateful for support resources - for all areas of life from medical and emotional health to parenting to financial to home stuff and professional
Grateful to have a really nice wardrobe and to not need to shop for anything
Grateful for serenity prayer and sick man prayer
Grateful to turn my slightly negative mood on going to bed last night and waking up into a positive one, thanks in large part to coming here and for all of you

Congrats on the milestones/anniversary/soberversary, Citrus and Mags.
And Aly good to hear the good report from doctor. Hope graduation was drama free.
Fearless, what a sweet gesture by your son.

Grateful momcation continues and yesterday I worked from home some, which also entailed taking a nap.
Grateful for the sound of soft rainfall this morning.
Grateful for coffee. Feel so tired for some reason.
Grateful to watch a funny compilation of videos of kids who had made ridiculously huge messes, like throwing the entire contents of their room out the window or getting flour all over. Makes me realize it’s probably not just me who has surrendered to the fact that our carpets are going to be ruined and we can’t really have nice things for several years.
Grateful that I may get another nap today..
Grateful to be here with this group.

Grateful to focus on "can" instead of "cannot".

Grateful for a supportive manager; no greater gift in the working world than to have an experienced, fair, and honest manager.

Grateful for insight gained.

Grateful for a good breakfast and some time browsing on SR before the busy day begins.

Hi, everyone! Grateful that I woke up with a clearer mind than yesterday - my judgement was clouded and now it's clearer.

Grateful to wake up on holiday sober and hangover free.

Midwest, that is wonderful. Congrats!
Numblady, I still try but have mostly given up having a clean and perfect house all the time. I am grateful we bought a steam cleaner for the carpet and when we had new carpet installed, we opted for the stain pad layer. It helps a little. But I would have gone a shade darker with the beige color. Also grateful for pet resolve and cat tape for all the cat puke/hair balls and scratching.

Grateful that I never got a DUI and never hurt anyone while drinking. I was lucky there.
Grateful for a third sober birthday and that I don’t even have any temptation to celebrate with a drink. Grateful that the second half of my life has so far been better than the first, I attribute in large part to sobriety and better self confidence and self esteem - byproducts of sobriety
Grateful that I don’t look as old as I am and that I still feel youthful (less the need to party), that I’m also more in shape than I was in my 20’s
Grateful to realize that much of what has happened in my life that is good or bad has happened as a result of my own actions, for the reminder that I have more control than I think I do. There’s a bit of good luck and bad luck thrown in also but that’s just life, and I’m grateful to be grateful for the good and to make good choices handling unlucky stuff.
Grateful that my little cat Daisy plopped right into my lap and is percolating away
Speaking of Daisy, hope our SR Daisy is well
Grateful to be working from home today and maybe do a little bday shopping with some gift cards
Grateful for each of you
