Grateful that even tho I am struggling a bit right now and feel depressed, hard to reach out much, that I can come here and be grateful for all of you here, and your wonderful support too. ODAAT and baby steps. My family can mess me up like no one else. My first reaction is to run as far as possibly able from them. It is so confusing and difficult. Grateful I'm really working on what I feel, sometimes it is hard for me to tell.
Grateful for choices, even if they are difficult.
Grateful for my blessings and for what I have.
Love and peace to all of you. Especially anyone struggling or sufferring in any way. ♥♥♥

Daisy, that’s great news about your g.son and black belt testing!
Aly, I am so sorry you are struggling. Thinking of you. I know your family is difficult. It must be especially hard with the pandemic and not feeling like you can escape. Anyway, I’m struggling a bit too with various things. We can struggle together!
Grateful I stayed neutral with work news of things changing. I’ve been through worse and gotten through it so I know I’ll be ok
Grateful to have a deep conversation with sonny boy. He’s growing up so fast

Grateful for my talk with God on my morning walk. I probably said and thought some things I shouldn't have but I'm still grateful I can pour out a prayer without getting too distracted.

Thanks for that news, Daisy. I missed somewhere that she was sick but have noticed Dee has been standing in when we go to the new thread. I am glad to hear that she is recovering. She was one of the first people who welcomed me to the forum four or five years ago now. Come to think of it, you all were too ❤️
Aly, hope you are doing ok and that today was better
Grateful today was not as bad for me as yesterday. Some ups and downs for sure but overall better. I am adjusting
Grateful that we can all get through hard things. It’s those difficult life experiences that make us stronger.
Grateful to hear back from my Dads mortgage lender that we are in the final stretch getting the foreclosure approved. It’s been almost a year now and with so many let downs, I guess I’ll believe it when I see it. Grateful I don’t have to talk to my Dad about this stuff any more. He doesn’t ask probably because his state of mind. It’s better that way
Grateful Mr F got the big pen stain out of the leather chair
Grateful for an interesting work meeting with a fun client
Grateful to sign up for an online art class that I’m going to try to do this weekend
Grateful I got asked to do a webinar presentation that I’ll be stressing about for the next two weeks! Grateful I know I can do this! I like to help people and this gives me an opportunity to help in an area that I know something about. But I do need to practice my presentation skills and I’ve never done a webinar.
Grateful for each of you

Hey all, my butt has been dragging today but still I have some things for which to be grateful for . . . . like:
- got my ballot in the mail and my dad's in a ballot dropbox (we vote in different counties)
-people were pulling up to the ballot drop box after me - (my country might be a mess but folks are trying to figure it out)
- some errands to run in the afternoon when I'm dragging. It helps to be out and about
- my regular morning call with my sister
- pretty fall trees right now
Aly, I get having a tough time with family. I try to have handwork when I have to hangout with family. Knitting helps me stay calm and gives me a bit of a distraction.
May you all keep walking, moving, crawling, twitching in a positive direction . . . .sometimes semi-constructive twitching is the best I can do.

Hi everyone,
I'm new here and this is my first post so if I do anything goofy please let me know. Today I am grateful for three healthy pets (two dogs and a cat) who give me a wonderful feeling of self worth. I'll also grateful for soft linen sheets. I'm grateful for unemployment benefits that are allowing me to take the time I need to plan my next move. And I'm grateful to be going to bed sober, day 10. Wishing you all well.

Welcome AutumnTree, so glad you've joined us! And hello to HReady too 
Grateful for the new least shared about Opi, I've missed her presence so much.
Grateful for early mornings and busy days, some days I whine about the exhaustion but I don't want to ever go back to that old life where i filled my idle time with booze.

Grateful to have found this thread. Can I join? I always feel so nervous about joining threads... I'm grateful for my husband, my children and my dog. I'm grateful for my health and my home. I'm grateful for the marshmallows we toasted over a fire after dinner. I'm grateful for the medication the vet gave my dog which seems to be helping his arthritis. I'm grateful for the old school friend I've recently reconnected with who accepts me for who I am now, not the person I used to be. I'm grateful I put my nerves to one side and joined a new thread. I'm grateful for all of you xxx
