Bedtime Gratitude ~ Part 87 |
Dee thanks for the new grat thread, I'm grateful. Grateful to return home to my amazing wife, our dog, and our safe little home. Grateful for the weekend with my son. |
Grateful for the thread, Dee!!!:thanks |
Thanks for the new thread Dee, I'm grateful too. Grateful to be going to bed sober tonight because that means I've ended the day on 2 years sober. Grateful for the support I've had from my Grat pack gang, couldn't have done it without you all. Grateful for a very productive day in the garden. Grateful for a telephone conversation with my 86 yr old mum who still doesn't 'get' why she needs to stay home. Big sigh. Grateful for a drama free day. Grateful for all my 'gots.' Grateful for a peaceful evening at home ( not that I could be anywhere else anyway.) Grateful Astro thinks so much of his lovely wife and family. Grateful my dear Aly is here too. Grateful for all of you and the gratitude that we share. Love always, stay safe. *Don't forget to wash your hands* xx |
Grateful for Daisy's friendship and grateful we share an anniversary date - today is six years to the date that I adopted Lily from Chicory. :) :) :) It was a Sunday and my brother drove me there. We had cake and coffee and didn't stay long due to brother having to work the next day and couldn't get home too late. But we had a good visit and I came home with a Very Good Cat! :) Thanks Dee for looking after us Gratters. :hug: Grateful for a productive walk with Billie after she ate her supper. Grateful God let me keep Billie with me when he took my sweet old man to be with him. :hug: |
I am Grateful to you Dee.... Grateful for the sun finally going down... Grateful for a productive day making masks for others... Grateful for the peace within this house... Grateful for hope.. Grateful for the calmness ... Grateful for the silence... Grateful for the safe house I live in... Grateful for SR... |
Congratulations Daisybelle on 2 years!! That's great!! :) Thx to Dee and to all of you on here. Tonight I'm grateful for will power that I know comes from a higher power. Tonight was a super challenging evening in the parental realm. Normally I would've instantly reached for a bottle. But tonight, I vented frustrations to myself, took some deep breaths, and fixed a cup of hot tea to decompress. Day by day, I'm learning to be the new me. |
Daisy woot woot congrats on two years!! I'm very grateful for your presence here :hug: Grateful for morning walks with the dog and the WFH routine we are developing around our house. |
:) :) So grateful for the kind Verizon rep who just credited my account with enough to avoid disconnection of my service! :) :) There are so many good people in the world if you just look for them. :) |
Grateful for a nice walk I took with Luke today. The weather is just lovely this afternoon, going into evening. Grateful to be sober and grateful for my Luke. I love him so very much. :love: Grateful to see our new avatars are sticking with us!!! Yay. So nice to have you all here. :hug:♥ Love, peace and prayers to anyone struggling or suffering in anyway tonight. All my love to my wonderful friends here!! :grouphug: :love: ♥♥♥ |

Grateful for being hopeful just for today... Grateful for SR.... :grouphug::You_Rock_ |
Grateful that Billie is my best friend and constant companion. :) She brightens my days. :) |
Least that's great about the Verizon rep helping you out! Good news indeed. Today I'm grateful for food in my cupboards, and grateful for the health of me and my kiddos. Between quitting drinking and this pandemic, my perspective is certainly one full of gratitude. |
Grateful to have gone to bed sober again even though it's now stupid o'clock. I can't sleep so I got up, made myself a cup of tea and came here to peruse. I could be doing worse things!! Grateful to have had a very productive day in the garden. Grateful that my family and myself are all well. Grateful I have enough food in my cupboards. Grateful to get my mum some groceries in, even though when I went to drop them off she was stood on a step ladder painting fence panels!! She's 86. Grateful for my little Lulu cat. Grateful to have Least as a friend and grateful to share such a special anniversary with her. Grateful Sunpengwyn is making masks for others, that is so kind. Grateful Lillith is learning to be the best version of herself that she can be. Grateful that there are some kind people in the world, Least's Verizon rep for example. Grateful to read Aly's uplifting post. Grateful to each and everyone of you for being on this journey. Thank you for your grats, much appreciated. xxxxxxxxx |
Grateful to catch up with you all and for all the new regulars and all the sober milestones! Daisy, the wine corks in the pots made me laugh 😂 Astro, I love avocado toast. Sometimes I make avocado egg toast with hard boiled egg. I like the hot sauce idea Thanks, Dee, for the new thread Least, omg I was on with Verizon for near three hours today dealing with my dads account. Long story but I went from legal dept to account transfer to billing dept, got disconnected a few times and finally got to someone who resolved everything. So grateful and glad you got a helpful person too Grateful for your trampoline time with sonny boy Grateful he’s keeping up on reading, guitar and some other non ex box activities. I worry with the extended shelters there will be a rise in video game addiction! Grateful for each one of you for always being here. Love you all |
Fearless, I tried it with an over easy egg and loved it, gotta make some this weekend! Grateful for nice morning walks in the cool air and crunches to get me motivated, I'm dragging a little but eventually my momentum kicks in! |
Grateful for the new thread. Thank you, Dee. Grateful for the two long walks with my kids today. Grateful that it was neither too hot nor too cold; just 'goldilocks' right. Grateful for sunsets and beautiful skies. Grateful for making new experiences and new memories. Grateful for sobriety and for grace. |
Grateful my nerve test went well and did not show anything that the doctor was concerned about. What a relief!! Grateful this doctor is turning into one I trust and like. Yay! Grateful for a nice walk with Luke. The weather turned kind of chilly and overcast, still quite pleasant. :wavey: Grateful for our health and the health of those I know. :hug:♥ Grateful to be doing what I can to keep my spirits up. Grateful for sobriety and SR. Grateful for the meaningful support from all my wonderful friends here. Grateful for all of you and your friendship. :grouphug: Love, peace and prayers to anyone suffering or struggling in any way. :love: ♥♥♥ |
Fearless, the wine corks...oh the shame :scared: Grateful to be sober tonight and happy about being that way. Grateful that I am well and my family are well too. Grateful for Wattsapp messages from my 10 yr old granddaughter, I'm missing her so much. Grateful that the sun has shone all day. Grateful for a really productive day in the garden. Grateful for some heart shaped, silver solar lights on a thread that I found in the cupboard. Someone gave them to me as a Christmas gift a couple of years back and I have never used them. I put them up in the yard today and they look lovely. Grateful to decorate a small Christmas tree in a container in my front garden, with fairy lights and pretty painted eggs ( plastic, not real). I thought it would be nice for any passing children to see. Grateful for a good cup of tea. Grateful for a hot bath and a hair wash. Grateful to see Fearless's post. Grateful Aly's nerve test went well, phew. Think elephants Aly. Grateful for each of you and for reading your grats. Stays safe, love to all. xxx |
Thank you, Daisy! :hug: :love: for remembering and for your beautiful friendship. I hope things are well for you. I think of you often. ♥♥♥ |
Grateful for several walks with Billie, my constant companion and best friend. :) |
Least, I really need to walk more/longer more frequently than I do. You remind me of how fun it can be with a dog. Although my ortho guy told me walking a lot isn't so good for my back (which I could tell when the pain settles in) and riding a bike is probably better. Anyway, grateful for your example of doing something productive with your time! Do you feel any different walking so much, like a better mood or more energy? I'm sure Billie is in Heaven!! You worked up to quite a lot of walking, seemingly in a relatively short time. Congrats and good for you! Thank you for reminding me of how fun moving with your animal can be. One thing I used to absolutely love was galloping my horse with another horse on the mountain or over by the BD Coal Mines, but it had to be a horse I could trust at least a little, boy can they run away with you quickly! What a completely exhilarating feeling. Nothing like it. A good walk in beautiful scenery with my pup is often just as fun! :love: :hug: :puppy::SteprobL::wave::flowers1::bbj::kitty: :egg21: |
Here I am, at stupid o'clock (to steal the phrase from daisy), and I thought I'd squeeze in a few more grats... Grateful that I finally, at last, found God. Took me long enough! Grateful I have everything I need. Grateful for my miracles, everyday. Grateful for having learned about vulnerability and how it relates to courage today. Grateful to be going to bed with a huge smile on my face, even though it's 2:30am and I'll likely have a tough day tomorrow as a result. Grateful your nerve test went well, Aly. Thoughts and wishes and prayers for your health and wellbeing. Grateful for the grat pack. Grateful for sobriety and for grace. |
Aly, I started walking much more after I sold my car. ;) But I've always liked walking my dog(s). :) Today I'm grateful that I don't drink anymore. :) It would just make a bad situation worse. |
Grateful for all those that read this post ...Thanks SR... for all you do...... Grateful for a good nites sleep... Grateful for the understanding of God in my life... Grateful for Having Hope.... Grateful for the walk I did with God today... Grateful for letting the sunshine poke thru the clouds just for a moment.... Grateful for the wisdom... of today.... Grateful for Acceptance of the day... Grateful for helping me get thru this day... Grateful for all the work I did just for today... Grateful for just being me and not letting me get frustrated.... :thanks :c011: :grouphug: |

Grateful to be sober again tonight. Grateful for a productive day in the garden. Grateful to remember to stand at the front door at 8 p.m tonight and give a round of applause for our wonderful N.H.S workers, as with most of the street. Grateful for all key workers and for all they do. Grateful to drop some supplies off for my daughter ( left them on her doorstep, safe distancing.) Grateful for a telephone conversation with my mum and grateful she is well, though she doesn't get it that she needs to stay home just because she is 86 and my brother, who is staying with her, only flew back from Thailand last Monday! Grateful she's not home alone. Grateful my live in g.son is sleeping peacefully, he's really missing his 2 cousins and his class mates. Grateful to read about your grats though I'm far too tired tonight to reply to them all. Grateful to be on this journey with the Grat packers. Stay safe, I love you all. xx |
Grateful for you Daisy ....... Grateful for the rain that just ended for the night... Grateful for the end of the day... Grateful for my walk with God... Grateful for all in SR... :grouphug: |
Grateful to be ending the day sober, just like I started it. :) |
