Grateful to wake up sober every day, and to not be influenced by anyone who isn't sober.

Grateful for a restful day. I was a lot more tired than I thought I was. Grateful I could get caught up on some sleep.
We have some great neighbors on our other side. There was a moving truck outside their place today. I sure hope they are not moving. We love them. Next time I see them, I hope, I'll have to try and find out what is happening. I only wanted the bad neighbors to go, not the good ones! Maybe they won't go. Whatever happens, I'm practicing acceptance and what will be will be.
Have a great evening all. Pleasant Dreams!

Grateful for my fellow 'grat packers'.

Sigh . . . I was kind of grouchy today which made me grateful for some errands to run. Getting out and about always helps me on bad days.

One errand was to a grocery story. It was the first time I've been since March. I was so impressed that every single person old, young, male, female wore a mask . . . . . it made me feel some hope for humans and for this I am grateful.

Grateful for the start of a 9-day road trip adventure to CA. Grateful we've got our little camper and some yummy meals to eat along the way. Grateful that my best friend is always with me for these, as well as every day.

Grateful for my sobriety thus far. Grateful for the work the universe is giving me and grateful that I am not freaking out. Grateful for learning to take a breath. Grateful for a productive day. Grateful for my bed, home and cat and to have a sober night sleep.

Grateful to be here tonight
Grateful to have a great time in Nevada with my close friend who is moving there. Went for an 8.5 mile hike and feeling sore! Grateful to be fit. I couldn’t have done that had I not been working out and if I was still drinking
Grateful for AC. We have been having record high temps.
Grateful to be back home with my boys and cogs. Little miss Daisy missed me the most. I can just tell
Grateful to get back to eating healthy. I wasn’t completely awful over the weekend, but too many carbs
Grateful sonny boy is settling in to distance learning. The first two weeks were stressful (more for me than him)
Grateful to find a Youtube station called Therapy in a Nutshell. Don’t know how I came across it but I’m grateful. Grateful to listen to a talk about catastrophizing and relate so much, get some good tips on how not to do that and what to do instead

Thank you! It's been interesting so far. We drove 6.5 hours to our campsite yesterday...where they turned us away. All campgrounds in southern CA closed due to wildfire danger. Sooo we just started driving towards the ocean, my wife made some calls and we're currently at an RV park in Ventura across the freeway from the beach. It's noisy, quirky, and definitely not the campsite in the woods we expected but hey at least we're away from work for 6 days!

Grateful that sometimes plans changed and we can just roll with the flow.

Grateful I didn't have to go out much today. The air quality, heat, and smoke are so bad and all the irritants and yuk in the air give things kind of an orange hue. The sun is even red, bright red, for a while in the morning. I think it has been making me unwell for the last couple of days. Prayers for all the fires to be put out everywhere. CO is burning in part too. Prayers to those working the Line in life threatening work. Cal-Fire, volunteers, inmate volunteers blessings for the safety of everyone involved in or near fires and the great work being done to put them out.
Love and peace to all.
Sleep Well.

Hi Astro Hope you're having fun and were able to find an open campground
