Daily Gratitude List

Aw. Thanks. Yes my wife truly is happy for me. And even though she does drink every day we chatted yesterday about how without me drinking she’s probably drinking less. We made a pretty bad team.

Great to hear your health issues are starting to work out for you. And that your ultrasound came back clear. Being in pain sucks and is exhausting.

I wish I lived in Canada. My mother’s side of the family was from Canada. Maybe they could take me in. They had a big 300 acre farm in Sherbrooke Quebec. We would make the six hour drive up there every summer. Loved it! That was about 45-50 years ago though. Lost touch after all these years.

I’m grateful this morning I spent all my quiet time doing devotionals and reading post on TS and I haven’t had a chance to check the news or get on Twitter. Now it’s too late to get all pissed off at what’s happening in the world cuz I got to do my chores and get the dogs walked.
Thank you :pray:t2::heart:TS​:heart::pray:t2:

Grateful to be alive and well enough. Greatful I have not binged on unhealthy food today. Grateful to be home with my family. Greatful I have the opportunity to go to the gym and an AA meeting tonight. Grateful that even though one of my old using associates messaged today i was able to share the message of recovery and ignore compliments and invitations to hangout, and to delete his number agan. Grateful that this type of ostracism of bad influences makes my recovery possible. Grateful for my life I am living today. Grateful I have work to go to tomorrow. Grateful even though my day wasn’t very productive and I am not that well rested, that I’m still willing, honest and open minded.

The lack of alcohol induced anxiety and depression has been huge for me. I never realized how much of it was caused by drinking until I stopped.

It’s crazy right. You don’t realise how much of a shadow was cast over your life and how much that shadow was a direct result of using and abusing alcohol. I’m so much happier now.
