Grateful for another day sober. |
Morning all Phoenix - great to see the picture of Roxy! The joy of dogs Palmer - really glad your son's move went well CBS - glad you're feeling better Today I'm grateful to be sober Grateful that we had good weather yesterday for the scattering of my aunt's ashes Grateful I was able to have a good conversation with my sister after seeing my dad (which is always tricky!) Grateful for all that my aunt did for me and for others Grateful to the nice bloke who came yesterday and collected a chair that was taking up space Grateful for an event to look forward to this evening Grateful for this thread Love to all |
Grateful to be sober..always Grateful my friend comes out of hospital today Grateful to see the Grat Pack :grouphug: |
Grateful Mag's friend is getting out the hospital. Will she be having care at home? Grateful I slept very well last night Grateful we used the firepit last night, brought back lots of fun memories Grateful to have seen lightning bugs last night. It has been decades since seeing those Grateful to all of you |
CP, that totally makes sense. I find it much easier to not drink if I’m already doing something fun (though when I have no escape route some things can turn un-fun like my weekend with friends who all drank). It’s home alone wanting to feel some other kind of way than I do where the real battle is. Free, haha this podcast is totally free and pretty awesome in my book. They do a bit of self promotion I guess but it’s all just for their other sobriety support. Home podcast. Something happened between the two co-hosts and after like 120 episodes they stopped making it anymore. I’m only on episode 27 so I have plenty to listen to before it ends. Grateful to see the wonderful Mags! Loved seeing your avatar in the feed today. Grateful to be on a combo work/personal trip and not be figuring out how I can drink how I want to without others noticing. So exhausting. Grateful PS’ son’s move in went well. Grateful for all the kind and uplifting posts. Gotta run! |
NL, which podcast are you referring to? I thought you were talking about the Annie Grace one, but it's still alive and kicking, at 500 episodes. Grateful that my body feels good this morning after restarting my running routine yesterday. Grateful for yet another cool morning. Grateful a very vulnerable share from a young lady from the UK at my Zoom meeting last night. Grateful for the unexpected tears. Grateful to see an uplifting FB post from my oldest daughter this morning. I love that she's awakening the activism within her and is unafraid to make a stand for what she believes in. Eternally grateful for SR and all of the beautiful people here. |
CP I am glad you feel good after your run. I miss running but have to preserve my knees for tennis, so I bike and walk. I should get back in the pool this summer too. Alpine I love lightening bugs too. They are threatened by mosquito treatments among other things. Jack glad you had a good convo with your sister. Turs. glad you enjoyed babysitting. I have missed out recently because my daughter has covid so I have to stay away. Hopefully, soon. Fearless I hope your cruise is fun. Grateful to be working from home today after being in the office yesterday for a long in person staff meeting. It was good to see everyone in the flesh though. Grateful for a nice rainstorm yesterday that has cooled us off. I got caught in it while cycling but only the last 10 minutes. Grateful for a good night's sleep. Grateful for my sobriety. Grateful my garden is starting to produce cucumbers and tomatoes. Grateful for SR and the GP. |

Dang it I thought I had it figured out. |
|
Coming through quickly as I'm already in the office - trying to get moving earlier, but my SR routine has really suffered! Grateful for coffee. Grateful to be in the office, I appreciate it much more now that I'm teleworking so much. Grateful my son is totally ignoring us, because that must mean he's having fun. ;) Grateful to get a call from the assisted living facility, that a 2BR has opened up - now to get my dad's head in the game. Grateful I'm being more direct when communicating with my brother. Grateful I was able to get some much-needed rest yesterday, even if I wasn't all that productive. Grateful to be sober. |

Yaaay. Riley is gorgeous ❤️ |
Grateful to Mags and Venus for helping to learn how to post pictures. |
Cute Alpine, hope glad you slept. Jack, hope your evening is great. NL, the podcast is “Home podcast”? I’m slow Hev, we missed you PS, glad son is doing ok Mags, how’s your hand/arm? CP, sounds lovely |
Grateful got about 8 hours sleep last night, SOLID Grateful for coffee Grateful for a nice hike yesterday, pics on my class thread, or click my name for recent posts in August 2021 class Grateful although some outside situations sting on my inside, I’m working on recognizing my reactions and the causes Grateful for a later start to golf today, and seeing a friend from last year on the course Grateful to start our trek to Alaska Friday, never been |
Good morning gratters! I’m posting from my phone because lately I’m having trouble with my iPad so I can’t use the like button. Alpine, Riley is so beautiful! Mags, so great to see you :) Grateful the fire near us was contained. Scary! Still smell the smoke Grateful to get a handle on my PTSD when I got an email from Dads ex’s daughter about her mom declining and needing info and signatures on legal documents about my heir status. Grateful to be able to offer a little bit of help Grateful to get ready for cruise vacation. Grateful to calm my nerves and remember I can’t control everything and if flight gets cancelled we have a credit and won’t lose our money. Grateful for our house sitter Grateful for such a supportive work team |
Free, have fun in AK. We went there several years ago. It was spectacular Thanks Fear! |
Thanks for the welcomes back. :) Free2bme hand ok ‘ish’ , needs another op but that’s fine, thanks. :) |
Grateful for a good night's sleep. Grateful for the motivation to make soup yesterday. Grateful for sunshine. |
Jack - I'm glad things went well for you. I'm so happy we're no longer impeded by alcohol. Alpine - What beautiful pictures of your baby Riley! Palmer - Wonderful news that a place has opened up. Hoping Dad will be happy & relieved. Free - 8 solid hours - I am jealous. :) I've never heard anyone say they didn't love AK. Fearless - Hope nothing complicates the trip & you have a lovely getaway. Grateful for bright sun & coolish temps. Grateful I'm really sticking to my healthy eating. It has to happen this time. Grateful to stop assuming the worst. (Mostly) Grateful for this thread & all the stuff we say. |
I visited my brother in Alaska for two glorious weeks about 20 some years ago, it's a beautiful state. :) Love the pictures of Riley, what a cutie pie. :hug: |
Alpine - yes, she has a team caring for her. Grateful for another sober day Grateful for the rain this morning, the gardens need it. Grateful for the Grat Pack :grouphug: |
Morning Grateful to awake early and refresed after a good nights rest. Grateful to be making plans in my next step towards a career change. Grateful for sunny weather again today. Grateful to read all your posts. have a great day all. |
Morning all Coffee and post reading - it's good. Alpine - I STILL haven't figured out how to post photos! So you're doing well CBS - good work on the cucumbers and tomatoes. I only have a patio but I'm gonna get some tomato plants I think Free - You're going to Alaska! I'm very jealous. It's been my dream ever since watching Northern Exposure in my teens. Don't know if anyone remembers that show. I loved it - still do. Fearless - glad to hear you managed to not get too triggered by the email Today I'm grateful for the talk I went to last night. The people I went with (who are lovely people) moaned quite a lot about how boring it was, but I found it really interesting. I realise it's because they'd all had a couple of drinks beforehand and were most likely just waiting for it to finish so they could get to the pub. Not judging - that was me for most of my life. But it was kinda nice to notice (in a slightly selfish way!) Grateful for all of my friends Grateful to be sober Grateful to be doing work that I love Grateful for another day living and breathing and an unwritten future Have a good day all |
Mags, I am happy to hear that. Thanks Jack, thanks. Yea, I am probably the least techy person you will ever meet. I do have pretty good people skills though. Computer/phone not so much. My MIL bought us some fresh strawberries several days ago, way too much for us to eat so I am grateful I managed to find Mr. Alpine's and my food dehydrated amongst the boxes and dried them. So I am grateful for dried strawberries. I also dried her nectarines that were getting kind of old. This food dehydrator is pretty old, probably close to 30 years. Wow, did I just say that. Grateful for a great night's sleep Grateful my hip is kind of feeling better, not great , but better Grateful to have done some sewing yesterday Grateful for all of you |
Grateful for another day sober. |
