Aly - Grateful you are gradually getting stronger.
Fearless - Glad you like it.
Deserto - Check in sir.
Grateful for my precious sobriety - especially in times like these.
Grateful for all the posts - they bring us closer together.
Grateful for an upcoming trip to Rockport & Gloucester, Mass. Wanted to go to Maine but they won't have us. We'd have to guarantine 2 wks.
Grateful I'm finally losing my self-consciousness. Drinking made it worse, not better.
Grateful for my second home - SR.

Grateful to have gotten a few errands done this morning. I have one more thing to do, but not sure I will have the energy.
Grateful for all the wonderful people here.
Hev, I love your signature too, esp. you are so much more than the worst thing you have ever done (I don't think I quoted correctly, but the spirit is there). When I first came here, that brought me so much comfort.
Rusty, prayers that you are resting comfortably
Love and peace to all my wonderful friends here.

Grateful that I have no desire or need for alcohol these days. ( I never had the need for it really, I just thought I did!)
Grateful that there were no queues when I went to get my grocery bits.
Grateful that the sun is out, though it is quite cool.
Grateful to feel well.
Grateful for coffee.
Grateful to go and do a quick visit to check on grandson no 1. He was home alone for a short while ( he is 13 so it's allowed and he's very sensible.), he was fine and it was lovely to see him even if we were distanced
Grateful that the house is tidy today, though I'm sure it won't last long.
Grateful to read all the grats here, they keep me grounded.
Grateful for each and every one of you. xx

Grateful for coffee - like jet fuel this morning - I'm so exhausted, so I'll happily take it!
Grateful that I pulled off a nice Father's Day celebration yesterday.
Grateful that everyone could sit outside and maintain their personal space.
Grateful the political discussion was kept to a minimum.
Grateful for the silver linings of social distancing.
Grateful that I'm motivated to try to change some unhelpful thought patterns that really don't serve me.
Grateful that my kids have a day off from any responsibilities today, which means less nagging from me.
Grateful to be sober, and for the refuge of SR.

FBL, WOW!! Happy 11 year Soberversary!

Grateful I only worked a few hours this weekend.
Grateful to get some other needed things done, like some (but not all!) bills, getting my phone screen fixed, some gifts for Father’s Day, that kind of stuff.
Grateful to talk to my grandfather last night, very briefly. Then I got to talk to my Grandma for a while, which was quite nice.
Grateful to be taking my van in to get checked out before our trip this Friday. Apparently it just died while my husband was driving it. More than once. I’m kind of glad it happened to him not me because my guess is the mechanics would assume it was something I was doing wrong If the roles were reversed. I remember taking a car in for a flat tire and getting treated to an anecdote about how the guy’s wife doesn’t know how to make turns. Delightful to say the least. Different car place. It just sometimes makes me nervous to get my vehicle fixed.
Grateful to put two feet on the ground and get up.
Grateful for coffee and all of you.

Grateful for this forum and those who share here.
Grateful to have been fortunate to have a dad, who cared for his family and taught his children well.
Grateful to have spent time with family members yesterday and though the conversation "got political," it was respectful.
Grateful to look forward to spending time with my mom today.

Congrats on 11 years sober FBL! That's amazing!

Grateful to wake up early and well rested and to decide to have a relaxing morning offline... only to open up my laptop a quarter after 9 to realize I'd completely spaced a 9 am conference call. Oops! Hopefully that won't set the pace for the rest of the week.

Grateful to have taken Henry to the river yesterday.

Grateful that this morning's pouring rain finally stopped and Billie and I got in a long walk. Grateful that the rain cooled things down.
