I hope Fearless comes back when she can. I know she has a lot on her plate. Just letting you know, you are in my thoughts and prayers, dear one. ♥♥♥

Grateful that even though I was fatigued today from going to bed too late last night, I still managed to play with my kids and we even got in two long walks.

Grateful that I have started intentionally exercising patience and humility in my day to day family life and the level of conflict we previously suffered has began to subside.

Grateful for sobriety and for grace.

Grateful that I stopped drinking on 3/1/2020. Grateful for real sleep for the first time in years. Grateful for not being in the prison of alcohols grips anymore.

I'm grateful for 12 days of sobriety, being healthier, and being a better, more engaged mother. At the moment I'm also grateful for Netflix and Hulu and Amazon.

Thank you, Daisy and Aly. It’s strange that I haven’t been here in a few nights. I’ve been going to the morning thread but I think I missed a morning here and there too. I saw a post on FB that says “for those of you who have lost track, today is Blursday, the fortytenth of Maprillay “. That’s how I feel. Lol
Grateful to see some new avatars. Welcome!
Grateful I got a call back from the school administrator to discuss sonny boy
Grateful sonny boy has his friends he can hang out with through Zoom
Grateful Astro posted about Ozark. Gotta catch up
Grateful for self care and self compassion
Grateful I had my hair done the day before the shelter orders. My hairdresser also called to say she is putting together a hair color kit for me until I can see her again
Grateful for nice weather. Planning a hike tomorrow with the boys
Grateful for each of you

Ain't that the truth!

Welcomes to Lillith & Bilr44, so glad you've joined us!

Grateful to be spending a few days with my son and his GF, thankful for the bed they've provided and for the chance to breathe some cold fresh air on long walks.

Welcome Lilith and Bil!!
Grateful you have joined us.
Grateful to see everyone here. I love the FB quote, Fearless. Glad to see you.
Grateful that I'm having a nerve test done in a week or two. I'm losing strength in my legs and hips, along with pain. I just had my epidural, so this shouldn't be happening. I have to ask if the epidurals cause weight gain. I haven't gained, but I am barely eating and have only lost a pound or two. They are cortisone I think, and I'm pretty sure that causes weight gain. All these gyrations to get rid of pain and they don't work. One doctor gave me a new drug, which I'm not taking until I ask my psychiatrist about it, Lyrica. He seems to be the only one who knows what I'm taking and the interactions. Plus, side effect, weight gain, plus a bunch of other things that don't sound like anything I want. He'll be honest and tell me the truth about it. Plus, he's a neurologist and he really knows his meds and even migraine info that is useful. So smart, humble and kind.
Grateful for my psychiatrist who is a beacon of truth and hope in my world!
Grateful for all of you so much and for my circle of friends here who I love so well. I feel like I've found a really good place on SR and have wonderful friends and all the good vibes circle me like a robe. Grateful so much to feel at peace here. Peace, health, love and hope to all my Grat Pack pals!!!♥♥♥

Grateful for the lady at the help desk of Social Security for correcting my account. It had been hacked and my payments directed to a bank in TX! Glad it's all fixed now.

Oh least, I am so grateful that you got through at social security and they were able to fix things! YAY!!! Wonderful news. I hadn't realized that happened. I'm so sorry you had to go through that and grateful it is fixed now!!

I'm grateful for another day not drinking. I'm grateful for the restored relationship with my mother. I'm grateful for amazing kiddos and my furry friend too. I'm grateful that I'm getting my life back on track, one day at a time.

Good to see you too, Aly. That is a lot to go through. I hope you get some answers!
Good to see you again too, Lillith
Grateful to get out today and go to the store and get things we need. There was a long line out the door with everyone standing six feet apart and wearing masks. It was very surreal
Grateful to have dinner as a family then go for a walk
Grateful for everything I have
Grateful I did not hurt my big boy Charlie. I thought he was a blanket in the dark and sat on him. Lol.

Grateful to see you, Citrus! Keep trying! You’ve got this!
Least, I also meant to say that I can’t believe that happened with social security. Crazy! So glad you got it worked out!
