Grateful RZ getting taken care of.Â

Grateful this terrible headache is not from drinking.Â

Grateful that when my daughter woke me up at 3 a.m. I had the presence of mind to talk myself through which mom I wanted to be: the mom of my lizard brain who wanted to just tell her her to go back to bed and stop fussing with stuff on her walls (it was making noise from the fan blowing on her) because she was panicking about all the stuff she woulnd’t get done, or the mom who was nice and laid down for a while and tried to bring comfort.Â

Grateful my standing date with my son went well. We called my dad and my son talked about all kinds of different stuff in Minecraft. For like half an hour with the elder this and the lapis laxuli this.Â

Grateful to be here.Â

Grateful to have taken sonny boy to Target yesterday so he could spend some of his saved fun money on a ginormous LEGO setÂ

Grateful to set a new 30 day challenge - no more than 1 cup of coffee a day. It’s adding to my anxiety.Â

Grateful to stay in a routine as much as possibleÂ
Grateful it looks like Mr F and I are both safe as far as keeping our jobs for now. The pandemic emergency regulations in our industry are creating more work.Â

Grateful my Dad is moving to 24 hour care today if all goes well. Grateful for all the support around him since I can’t be there.Â

Grateful to remain flexible and strong.Â

Grateful this too shall passÂ

Grateful for all of you!Â

Grateful to be up this morning sober, present and alert.

Grateful that my middle of the night reminiscents about all the awful things I did when I was drinking are things that happened in the past and the past has gone. I'm beating myself up a lot lately for some reason and I need to stop.

Grateful to know that today's a new day and another chance to get it right.

Grateful for all my haves.

Grateful for morning tea, followed me a morning coffee.

Grateful and lucky to be well.

Grateful for P.S's reminder that you can 'snooze' people for 30 days on F.B, lol.

Grateful to read about Fearless's 30 day coffee challenge, I think I need to do that.

Grateful that Hevyn's packing is almost done and also that she has a dishwasher and garbage disposal. Very posh indeed.

Grateful to read all your posts and sorry that I don't have time to reply to them, I'm running late now.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers Rusty. Take good care of yourself.


Keep safe Gratters. xxx

Grateful Daisy is hopefully not spending more time or mental energy dwelling on the past. Grateful NC reminded her of the amazing, positive person she is right now. I appreciate Daisy so much every day! And I have no doubt all the family she is helping and loving feel the same.

Grateful to be working out in a bit. Our schedule is so off kilter and sometimes I think I’m going to do a workout with the kids but they are kind of lame workout partners, tbh. :). Last night I did a kids youtube video with my son. He complained the entire time. Maybe that burns extra calories?

Grateful RZ’s spiritual connection is intact.

Grateful for the rain we got yesterday. Gobs of it.Â

Grateful for the sleep I got last night. 8 solid hours. Precious and beautiful.Â

Grateful to be here with all of you.Â

Fearlessat50 05-13-2020 07:27 AM

Grateful to be here and read all your grats! Â It means so much to me and helps me so much. I love you all!

Daisy, I hope you won’t beat yourself up for the past. You bring so much positive energy to this little computer family and forum. I have been doing the same lately. It’s been rough.Â

Grateful to hear back from my therapist. She’s just been really busy but working on getting a virtual session set up soon.Â

Grateful sonny boy sent me a most adorable YouTube video to express his feelings to me. It shows a teen boy dancing and singing to his mom telling her how cool she is and that he will love her for eternity. It is so darn funny and cute!Â

Grateful for another day to work on being the best version of myselfÂ

Grateful for each of you.Â
