    Re: Express your Gratitude

    Cowboy, I also love Amazon because I can find things there that I want without running around to stores, and I have product reviews to guide my selection. I'm grateful that I can use the gps in my phone to guide me in unfamiliar areas. I just bought a device from Amazon to hold my phone on the dashboard. I'm visiting a lot of gardens this summer, it's so much easier to get there now.

    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.

      I'll join the Amazon gratitude train too having contributed to their Prime Day success. Most of the stuff I bought wasn't even on sale, but I did pick up my first Christmas gift - basketball for my SIL. (They recently moved to a house with a nice hoop at the end of the driveway and he doesn't have a ball. )

        Some days it is harder than others to find gratitude....to find the bright side. I was having one such day yesterday and in defeat I threw in the towel and went to bed. This morning I am grateful for a good night's rest and renewal. I'm grateful for a new day. And even more grateful to start it out without a hangover!

          Tonight I am grateful for the drop in humidity! We'll be able to open the windows tonight! Woo-hoo!

            I'm grateful that it's Friday! It was a long, hot, tiring week and even when the rest of the guys shut down at 3 to have a few cold beers I stayed working till 4 then drove to the farm to be with Bubba and Hank. No hangover for me tomorrow!
            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.

                I'm grateful that our boat finally sold today! I am grateful to look back on the last eight years with our boat and realize that never once was I anything but sober on that boat! I have lots of good memories of our time on the water.

                  That's remarkable [MENTION=7944]dill[/MENTION]! Not that your boat sold, which is good, but that you were never drunk on it! After reading your post I looked back on my drinking days and can't remember any occasions that I wasn't at least partly drunk! I'm grateful that all the memories I make now are now booze free.

                          Tonight I'm grateful for my sometimes hard-headed stubborn outlook on sobriety and how it affects my life...

                                Tonight I'm grateful that we live right between CFB Cold Lake and CFB Wainwright. We're watching the F-18 Hornets flying combat exercises! Those birds are simply amazing!
