I am grateful for this site and to all of you!:l

I am grateful for my dogs and cats who expect nothing from me (except food and treats, lol), and love me despite my flaws.

I am grateful that my bf is supporting my AF lifestyle, and also that he helped me to see that I had a problem.

I am grateful for my family, whom I have not kept in touch with like I should've due to AL. This is something I am going to remedy.

I am grateful to still have my job, despite AL and my many attempts at sabotage.

Grateful for my beautiful granddaughter & her powerful subtle words "Grama? Please don't drink. She has no idea how those words have spoken to me deep inside.

Good morning world.

What an inspiring thread! Thanks for starting it Piccalili!

Ok, there are several but here are my top 5:

1)Waking up Sober!
2)My loving husband, my cute dog and 2 mysterious black kitties that are betting than watching any tv show!
3) My fun job that I get to walk to and affords me to not have to have a car! Also, that my husband makes a good living and is hard working, just like me.
4)Our beautiful home in a georgeous seaside community near Boston. The best of both worlds...city and coast.
5)That I have a wonderful extended family and that I am making AF friends, including those of you right here!

I'm adding a bonus point: 5A: My health, even though I put my body through hell with AL for the past 15 years or so, my blood tests and recent physical are all normal and my liver is fine. It can only get even better now that I am not drinking.
