I’m grateful for therapy, it helps to not kill idiots wasting my time & money with my bare hands. Slapping them with words is ok though. I struggle to be grateful for another bunch of people neither doing their job nor using their brains but I can be grateful that this gets handled on decades of experience: return to sender, do your job properly, not my problem. I’m grateful I don’t even read details anymore. I see a total fuckup, return. It’s not my job to tell other people how to do theirs.
I woke early and got a good workout in
Hugs with hubby

Feb 19th
Today I am grateful for: Taking each day, one day at a time. Helps me to not feel so overwhelmed with the illness in our home. A clean home. I washed the floors and did some disfinecting of the home today to get rid of all of the sick germs present. Cold meds. They make being sick a little more manageable. Knowing that no matter what happens today, it could always be worse. Grateful to be where I am today, sick and all. The weather. Its supposed to get nicer over the next few days.
I´m excited about the new job I will start in June.
The mandatory unemployment insurence system in Germany allows me to finance my life while I´m between jobs.
My cats are always healthy and so sweet.
My daughter wished me luck yesterday. She became a very quiet teenager and saying something emotional almost never happens
My friends.
I can go from Stuttgart to Hamburg by train in about 5 hours and listen to podcasts and music or read or sleep all the time. I will go there in October.
We have such a huge variety of great art museums.
A comfy bed.
Love came back into my life and I feel calmly in love.
I am visiting Tuscany in March for five days.
My brain is doing its job very well these days. Way better than when I´m depressed.
I have a ton of great books on my shelf and all I had to do was visiting the public library and pay my annual fee of 24 Euros. So, for 2 Euros per month I can read AS MUCH AS I WANT.
TS and all of you. Its so good to know that we are in this together.
I’m grateful to be sober
I’m grateful for my daughters
I’m grateful for online meetings
I’m grateful busy day at work that went by fast
I’m grateful for a mostly healthy body that keeps me moving all day
I’m grateful for hot evening showers
I’m grateful for guided meditations
I’m grateful for music and books
I’m grateful I’m heading bed sober tonight for a chance at another sober day tomorrow
Today I’m grateful for:
~Not training anyone today
~5:15pm sunsets
~The Mr. getting to see his bestie in the hospital today
~Doing less compartmentalizing
~Thinking about things differently
~Willingness to try new things
~Becoming more connected to my whole self in various ways
~My life being SO much different than it was
~Knowing that it will continue to change
~Simplifying
~Quotes

Much love sober peeps. Make the best of today as we never know if it will be our last
I’m grateful that the first day of Ramadan was amazing! My fast went well, I was conscious of what I was saying, doing and looking at.
I’m grateful that I feel the progress that I’m making within myself with the help and guidance of my higher power.
I’m grateful for the meals that I’ve been eating. I’ve stepped up my healthy habits and the dishes have tasted delicious.
I’m grateful for another day of waking up early, fasting, praying and reading Quran before anyone in my house is awake.
I’m grateful that my YouTube channel KhanDynasty4 is doing well. I’m almost monetized on Facebook. This is a career I want and it’s slowly coming together.
I feel gratitude running through my heart and I hope to keep this feeling all day. Have a good one everyone!
Free from that scornful, dishonest and manipulative woman.
In a career where I get to build on something and preserve resources.
The dad to a strong and free-thinking kid. Even if he does try to get way with stuff.
Strong enough in my al-anon work to not get baited into hostile exchanges while also not shrinking. For knowing that I can put my peace at the forefront and give up on expectations of anyone having accountability.
Breathing through the racing heart of charged feelings without wanting to do anything hurtful to myself. I just want to go to the gym and level up to spite those who think I suck.
Able to forgive for my own sake and knowing I’ll never receive an apology.
I’m grateful for having God’s will run through me as I enjoy the month of Ramadan. Day 2 of fasting and I am becoming more aware of my actions. I’m grateful for this awareness.
I’m grateful that I’m thinking about my future self by setting up things I need for tomorrow, tonight.
I’m grateful that yesterday’s experience was different from today. I feel like give learned from yesterday and I applied those actions today.
I’m grateful I attended a meeting and spoke to a could friends.
I’m grateful that I’m excited about tomorrow. I’m looking forward to the day even though it starts at 4:30 a.m.
Life is exciting when the blinders come off. Enjoy the night everyone!
Today I’m grateful for:
~Having my bone marrow biopsy date
~His son’s birthday today-17!
~Extended family
~Sleepovers with the granddaughter
~Bookstores
~Not taking on more than I need to today
~Witnessing the Mr. being SO happy and doing something for himself for once
~His new toy
~Meeting a coworker of his
~My HP
~So many messages arriving to share
~Being simply a channel
~Weekends
~Coltons cuddles
~Sleeping in
Today I’m grateful I take it slowly. I’m not grateful for crappy sleep (if I could call it sleep) but I’m grateful I showered at 4 a.m. and started the day, went back to naps and now Missi cat is sleeping on me, the dog snors , the youngsters had their share of shenanigans, I vacuumed, did laundry, dishes and watered the seedlings. Maybe this is all I do today, I’m grateful I rest when I need it.
I’m grateful for mental health meds, I was not doing well this morning, now it is better. I’m grateful that I notice emotional outbursts of long gone hurtful encounters with my ex. I’m grateful they show me that there is still need for more healing. I want to heal. I’m grateful I trust the process and know: The only way is through. Again and again and again, until the last memories loose their grip and fade. I’ve been going through this for years and I’m tired of it. I’m grateful very much of this emotional baggage got already digested. Those outburst creep around when I’m exhausted, tired, when I’m not well and somehow a bit off track.
I’m grateful the intensity can be lowered by using my toolbox. I’m grateful it will pass.
ODAAT

I’m grateful for experiencing what it’s like to wake up with an alarm this morning. I never do and it scared the hell out of me.
I’m grateful I pushed through being tired, I didn’t go to bed. I kept my routine and did exactly what I was suppose to do.
I’m grateful to be sitting on my couch, watching my kids play Xbox and listening how they interact with each other. I did a really good job of raising these boys.
I’m grateful for Facebook memories. This time 2 years ago, I took my family on an amazing trip to Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon. It’s nice to relive those memories.
Fill your social media feed with the things you enjoy and life gets really easy. Have a good day everyone!
Taking each day, one day at a time. Helps me to not feel so overwhelmed with the illness in our home.
