What's good today is that I have a warm house to live in and my dogs are inside dogs, not outside cold and lonely like so many poor dogs. What's good today is having so many friends here supporting me in staying sober. I don't feel so alone.:ghug3

So far today. I got up bright and early. Got my Bobble kitty to the vet to get fixed. Made it to the pdoc. Always feel good after that. We are having cheeseburgers for dinner. My fav food in the world.
I feel good today. Happy and calm.
And its only 10 in the morning. LOL

The heat is on and the pipes haven't frozen in my apartment. This is good and surprising.

Today is good cuz my energy is great, I kicked ass at work, and I'm back in my gym routine. AND ate a salad for lunch.

Wahoo

Those cheeseburgers ROCKED!!
Lettuce..onion..mustard..ketchup..mayo. No pickles in the house

Poor Bobble is falling all over the place. Its kinda funny. But I feel bad for her. She is getting frustrated and growling. I have never heard her growl before. LOL.
At least she fixed. No fleas. No ear mites.
She got her shots.
Payed my aunt back today for buying my secret santa present.
I kept it together for once and took care of quite a bit today.
Never in my life have I ever took the kind if responsibility as I have today. Apying for the vet and all that.
It was a huge step for me.
So YAY me...Great day.

Altho a cold snowy day, I didn't have to go out and spent the day relaxing with the dogs and taking a nap. My headache's gone and that's good too. Just having a warm safe place to live is very good.

(((Trish)))

If they gave Bobbles the same stuff they gave Mots when he had to have surgery, she'll be acting like a drunk kitty for a while. Mots wobbled around, growled, tried to stick his nose up my nose, and was pretty darned looped for a few hours. We had to keep him inside (he's and indoor/outdoor kitty) 'cause he had sugery on his neck. He wanted out and was howling at the door. Dad said, jokingly "it would be a shame to pay all this money on him and have to kill him to shut him up!!" I'm proud of you for doing all you did today!

What was good today was lots of sleep!!! Boy, did I need it! I've done nothing but eat, sleep, and hang out on SR all day....perfect day

Hugs and prayers!

Amy

Today a great thing happened to me here on SR. someone sent me a message that said I made them laugh. This is something I was obsessing about while deciding to quit so it made my day. Thanks, you know who you are.:ghug3

I had an awesome day yesterday. Had spent the day before, doing nothing but eating, sleeping, and hanging out on SR. Yesterday, felt on top of the world! Still feel that way, today...amazing what a little rest can do for you!

I go back to work, tonight, and will try to keep up the good attitude.

It's freezing, here, too. They're even predicting SNOW by Sun. This is GA! Snow is a very rare thing here, so we'll see!

Hugs and prayers!

What is good today is that I have 24 hours sober.

I may have let myself down again but I think Im learning from my mistakes, making new ones, but at least Im learning.

I think I can do this.

The best part of my day was sitting alone in church and praying. Lately my prayers have been feeling awkward and sticky. Today it was just simple and flowing--I wasn't even thinking about the words. Right towards the end of it the sun crested over the windows and a sunbeam just fell right on me... I'm not sentimental enough to think it a "sign" but I thought it was a nice touch.

And I also didn't lose my job! I don't usually mark a "good day" as having avoided catastrophe. Yet I'm not complaining either.

I made a little more money, in tips, than I thought I would last night. I have a cold, but it's a minor thing, compared to the illnesses/diseases others are dealing with. All my furbabies are inside and warm. No snow yet!

Hugs and prayers!

Today it is great that Tate, who started just minutes after me is still here. We both made our first week but we have only just begun.

The ATM machine ate my tip money from the night before; I still have a cold; and it's been sleeting here, just hasn't stuck yet. Despite this, I'm in a good mood, and feeling grateful for what I have!

Hugs and prayers!
