Late gratitude practice for me today.
I’m grateful I had a safe trip yesterday and got settled into my hotel today, and had a productive work day at my laptop in this room that smells like lysol…
I’m grateful that the big snafu this morning was where and how to get coffee, and not where my next meal will come from…
I’m grateful for my new masks, that they protect others - yes, and the mandatory physical distancing. I ate way tooo much yummy garlicky hummus and carrots on my little road trip. And now I don’t have to worry about the effects of that on others.
I’m grateful I’m sober. If I was still looking for reasons to drink, I’d have found a cargo ship full of 'em yesterday. Good thing I have wayyyy more reasons not to drink.

I’m grateful for another day.
