    Re: Express your Gratitude

    It has been a wet spring, but I am grateful for today's rain because I just planted some grass seed in my lawn, and some vegetable seeds in my garden. This will ensure good germination.
    My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.

      Grateful for the reappearance of [MENTION=21602]abcowboy[/MENTION] after a brief hiatus! Is life keeping you busy?

      If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

        I am grateful I am not broke and I'm not at total rock bottom even though some days I feel I am. You only know until you have been there. I am grateful I didn't destroy myself again completely. I am grateful I have a roof over my head and a place to sleep and means to feed myself. I am grateful for science and what we are trying to figure out. I am grateful for what I have learned through many different ways. I love my fur baby! I get him again for another couple days Having nothing to love is hard as hell. Highly recommend a fur babys for therapy when you have killed everything off you loved most because of addiction. Companionship is important and I am grateful.

          Busy is an understatement [MENTION=7944]dill[/MENTION] lol, but I'm getting a bit lazy as it only takes a minute to express some gratitude!

          Tonight I'm grateful that I'm a country boy...

          Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
          Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
          Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

            this might sound odd, but I am thankful that my skin is sensitive. I have been out foraging for mushrooms this spring, and some areas seem to be absolutely infested with wood ticks, while others have none! Why it's so different from one place to another astounds me, but it is what it is, I guess. I am very sensitive to the feeling of these critters on my skin, and I would much rather be hyper-sensitive than not feel them at all ... at least I know they're there and get them removed and flushed before they can dig their chompers in!

              I'm grateful to be safe
              To see a world in a grain of sand
              And a heaven in a wildflower.
              Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
              And eternity in an hour.

                Today - I am just grateful x
                To see a world in a grain of sand
                And a heaven in a wildflower.
                Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
                And eternity in an hour.

                    I'm grateful for clean windows. The weather has been misty rain for the last couple of days, at least the clean windows make me feel it is brighter out!

                      Today I'm grateful for the strength God gives me, especially in times of doubt...

                        Grateful for my husband's skills, strength and support. I'm grateful the deck is all decked out. Brimming with flowers, a swing and garden ornaments. New patio umbrella in aqua. Now if I can just get myself sober for the arrival of our kids. Grateful I still have strength to keep going. Grateful for my Nana's potato salad recipe. Grateful for this thread. :love:

                            Home from a graduation party where the beer and wine were flowing. I'm grateful that I opted for the lemonade and am home safe and sound. Grateful that I will be clear headed tonight when my head hits the pillow.

                              Grateful I got to spend time with my sisters two twins. Grateful everyone is healthy. Grateful I got my dog and that he is good with the kids. Grateful to my higher power that blessed me with today and letting me make memories; no matter if it was tiring.
