Grateful for a new day even though it started late.
Grateful for the tools of recovery.
Grateful I don`t have to pick up a pill to deal with my pain. I looked muscle spasms and cramping on the internet because my son said to go to emergency and get a pill to deal with it. When I checked, I saw that I had already been on three of the medications and had stopped taking them. Some I refused to go on because I can`t take anti-inflammatory pills, because of an enlarged kidney.
Grateful that dinner is cooked and all I have to do is cook the cabbage and heat up the rest.
Grateful that if you put the work into it, it brings good things in my life. I can`t just sit back and expect them to happen.
Grateful that my God is loving, forgiving, and there to lead and guide me.
Grateful for all of those who walk this journey with me.

Grateful for another day, even though it started at 6 p.m. I didn't go to sleep until 7 a.m. and woke for an hour and went back to bed. Not sure if my day is starting or ending. ;)
Grateful that my son took my books back to the library.
Grateful my son cooked me dinner.
Grateful for this site, that I can come here and share with you, whether it is part of my journey to get to where I am in today or my life in today.
Grateful for those who travel this journey with me.

Grateful for a new day.
Grateful for a day with little pain.
Grateful I got some posting done and read some food for my soul.
Grateful that I could walk downtown and back. Had to stop several times coming home as it is uphill and my chest pains kept reoccurring, which I put down as the rain to come and my Fibromyalgia.
Grateful I picked up some books, when I got home, I checked my a/c and found that 5 more had come in after I left. I find an author, and I try to get all that they have written, especially like series. I tend to order too much, sometimes finding out that I had already read them a long time ago.
Grateful that it shows the addict in me is making itself known and I have to turn the thinking and actions over to my God.
Grateful that my God is always giving me new awareness and experiences to learn from.
Grateful for all of you who walk this journey with me.

Grateful for a new day, even though it started 2 min. before 12 noon. :(
Grateful that I woke with little pain. Not so grateful that it has decided to claim my day and is making me think of going back to bed and starting again.
Grateful that I woke up in time to watch Serena Williams and Li Na, playing in the final of Key Biscayne tennis final.
Grateful that I can just be, although I am praying for some motivation and energy to do some laundry.
Grateful that I can still read, have a book that is calling to me.
Grateful for those who walk this journey with me. Without you, there is no me.

Grateful for another day.
Grateful for my birthday and the good feeling I had for the last two days, although my gratitude list was neglected.
Grateful for World Curling even though it has been on when my regular shows have been on.
Grateful to find that I am not addicted, I don't have a VCR to record them, so when they are gone, they are gone. A good way to let go.

Grateful for another day, although it has seemed like yesterday was a day and a half and today is only 6 hours old.
Grateful that I have alternative options, and that I don't have to pick up to make the pain go away.
Grateful that I have the tools of the program to deal with that pain.
Grateful that I slept all day because it rained all day and had no desire or need to go out.
Grateful that curling is on and Canada is playing for gold opposite Norway, even if they lose, they get silver. It is the World Cup, so it is extra special.
Grateful that our Canadian tennis player won today and is going into her first semi-final. She is only 20 years old and has a lot of promise.
Grateful that I have music in my life. My old sponsor said that she felt that I connected to my Higher Power through music.
Grateful for the space I'm in, mentally it is good, physically could be better, but not having the screaming pain I had last night.
Grateful for those of you who walk this journey with me.
Grateful that I am clean and sober today. There is a little story to go with that. After I had my shower today, I rubbed on lotion, put on vapour rub, rubbed in Voltaren, and ate salmon which I love but it does not like me, plus it stinks. LOL!

Grateful for another day.
Grateful that it was a good day, even though it rained all day.
Grateful I could go to sleep after my last posts, woke up with very little pain.
Grateful that I finally got to make macaroni and cheese, although it didn`t taste grate, it was edible. I know what to do differently next time. A lesson learned is always a good day.
Grateful for Monday night TV. Watched Dancing with the Stars, surfed to The Voice during commercials and when nothing of interest was being said and I wanted to hear the results of the preformances.
Grateful for a clear head and found something to share on some of the posts. I find that some don`t speak to me in the moment and I go back, or they don`t need my thoughts added, all I have to do is say, Amen!
Grateful for all of you who walk this journey with me.
Will be very grateful, if you all keep coming back, I need you.

Grateful for another day.
Grateful that the sun was shining.
Grateful that the $1. store was open before I went to the hospital and the grocery store was open on the way back.
Grateful that my sister looks better. Sad that she gave me back my books, but that is her choice. Grateful that I don't have to walk in her shoes.
Grateful for the different Fellowships that have shown me a new way of life and grateful that they allow me to live life on life's terms.
Grateful I got there, my body wasn't cooperating, but I made a promise to her and to myself. I knew I was going to hurt after ward, but that is okay, I have the tools to deal with it. Sometimes you just have to do, whether it is to do or not do, and suffer the consequences. It is my choice.
Grateful for all of you who walk this journey with me.
Grateful for butterflies. They transformed my life. Every time I had a healing a butterfly appeared in different shapes and sizes.

Grateful (I think) that I am tired and will be going to bed soon, so I won't be able to do my usual posts at 1 p.m.
Grateful for the saying, "Better late than never."

Grateful that I saw some members from recovery, AA and Al-Anon, on my journey, my God always supplies my needs.
Grateful for all of you who walk this journey with me.
