Hev, that's awesome that your h went to the grocery store on his own! I'm always waiting for the phone calls whenever mine does that. 
Fearless, I love the reminder that it's not always about us (and in fact, it usually isn't). That's a concept that's very hard for me sometimes. I'm in a similar work situation in that I can retire in about 6-7 years.
NL, I hope your tv interview WAS cancelled, and if it wasn't, all you have to do is never watch it. I love your dream too, those moments of clarity that we're living our lives right this minute. And I love that your grandma is so sweet and reliable about sending cards.
CBS, grateful that you're spending time with your mom and extended family.
Grateful for coffee.
Grateful that my husband took my son to his activities at 6 a.m. Not grateful that both of them are such loud talkers, no matter what time of the day or night.
Grateful to be sober and present for my boys' little milestones.
Grateful I was able to spend some time in the office last week.
Grateful for my new car.
Grateful for my comfortable bed.
Grateful to be able to help my parents and MIL in small ways.
Grateful for a productive meeting with our consultants yesterday.
Grateful to have people I can call on who will drop everything and join me (and that I can do the same for them!)
Grateful for podcasts.
Grateful for VERY gradual and incremental weight loss. I love my Happy Scale app.

Grateful to wake up sober with Billie right beside me on the bed. 
Grateful that my memory is still good enough that I can remember the names of my family's and friends' pets.
Grateful that it's not so hot today as it's been lately. Grateful to get some chores done this morning.
And last but not least, I'm grateful for my friends here.
You mean so much to me!

Least - Grateful for your friendship, too. 
PalmerSage - As predicted, MrHev's shopping list went awry.
Grateful for a big cool down - 20 degrees.
Grateful for new determination to stop worrying about everything.
Grateful to have another bag of (hopelessly out of style) clothes to take to the thrift shop.
Grateful for YOU. Hope it's a lovely weekend so far.

I love de cluttering and cleaning 😆
It just feels so good to have everything in order!

Oooh, I love de-cluttering and cleaning too! That's definitely in the plans for today (again).
Hev, sorry about your H - he tried. And I love your intention to stop worrying so much, I'll take on that challenge too.
Fearless, you sound so productive, it's inspiring!
Grateful for coffee.
Grateful that I had a semi-productive day.
Grateful that I pushed myself to overcome shyness yesterday at a school event.
Grateful to see my younger son's progress in just one week. He seems more motivated and focused.
Grateful my older son is back home.
Grateful I started to clean his room while he was still gone - I'm going to have him do the rest.
Grateful I didn't wallow for too long when I faced a work setback. Grateful I was able to leap into problem-solving mode pretty quickly.
Grateful for the awesome people in my life, including everyone here.
Grateful I'm only exhausted and not hungover.
Grateful for a quiet, peaceful morning.
Grateful that I can always find a space to be alone in my house.

Grateful my family made it home safely and without cancellations and crazy waits.
Grateful for the hilarity and absurdity of showing up at a bike shop early yesterday morning to meet my friends for a ride Only to realize I went on the wrong day.
Grateful I’m not the only mom who hasn’t bought their middle schooler any school supplies yet.
Grateful for my son when dinner I made wasn’t too good and he really sweetly said, “It’s ok. You tried.” It was funny.
Grateful to be back to occasionally splitting a bottle of sparkling grape juice with my kiddos.
Grateful for finding a giant box (like boxed wine only smaller box) of cold brewed coffee, along with some kind of fancy club sodas (one is lemon blackberry, for example), and some Mexican Cokes (real sugar!).
Grateful for all the delicious n/a beverage choices out there.
Grateful that even though I feel a bit run down, I have the peace of mind of knowing it’s not from drinking.
Grateful I have the financial means and bandwidth to take my pets to the vet if they need it.
Grateful that for the tv interview I was probably only on the air for a second or two—and the online version cuts me off entirely! Hooray!
Grateful for a sober Sunday.

Least, grateful for you and happy your memory is still intact
Palmer, I need to overcome shyness this week as well for back to school events. Feeling nervous and jittery
Numblady, nope, you aren’t the only one. I still need to buy school supplies for sonny boy.
Lol about the bike ride and the tv interview. Glad it’s over.
Aly, please check in soon!
Grateful to not freak out too much yesterday over school stuff. School starts Tuesday and I suddenly realized we are not prepared. Could not find any communication from school about schedule and classes, instructions for returning, etc. Since Mr F retired last year, I’ve been delegating school management to him. He said he had t received any emails and he’ll figure it out on Monday. School starts Tuesday. So I look at his email and find a bunch of school emails giving us all the info. This is after checking with my fellow school mom friends who were of course all in the know, and probably judging me now. Grateful to have found those emails and have a plan now.
Grateful sonny boy found his school chrome book and charger while took nearly half a day. Grateful he found his password too and was able to login to Google classroom even though nothing is posted yet
Grateful that even though the Costco Cool masks are no longer available (the only kind sonny boy will wear), found similar on Amazon
Grateful to plan to work a few hours this morning. Then going to see the movie OLD in the luxury seats at the downtown theatre

Grateful for a cool, sunny day with no pressing matters to take care of.
Grateful for movies to take our mind off thing for 2 hrs.
Grateful to catch myself when I tend to make assumptions.
Grateful to know we can always fix our flaws & change direction if needed.
Grateful for the place I live in, & prayers for those in harm's way today. Haiti, Afghanistan.
Grateful for SR each & every day.

Grateful to wake up sober and with Billie beside me on the bed. Grateful to feel good when I wake up just from seeing Billie's sweet face.
Grateful for every day that I'm above ground.
