I’m grateful for my wife.
I’m grateful wifey made it to bed last night.
I’m grateful after a busy day and a late lunch out, she suggested I didn’t have to cook dinner, if I didn’t want to and we could “fend for ourselves.” I’m grateful it’s very easy for me to “fend for myself,” when meal time is involved.
I’m grateful we had fun watching the Grays season finale last night. I’m grateful she actually stayed awake for it. Barely. I’m grateful I just now realized that.
I’m grateful wifey got all the cats in and out of the house and the cats on deck on our deck yesterday afternoon.
I’m grateful she was able to feed the cats last night and clean up after it.
I’m grateful I put of the Moon Mantra last night when I didn’t think I needed it. I’m grateful I knew I was going to fall right to sleep but it was nice to do it when I didn’t “need,” it.
I’m grateful I just listened to the Moon mantra again this morning while reading some recovery stuff. I’m grateful I then continued it in peace with a warm purring cat on my lap joining in. I’m grateful sometimes I just put on a mantra for the heck of it.
I’m grateful Alice is back on my lap keeping it nice and warm. I’m grateful when I call Alice to come in the morning she comes. I’m grateful when Maverick talks back to me when I say “Hi Buddy.” I’m grateful for Daisy’s chirpiness and head bashing on the kitchen island during feeding time. I’m grateful for B, even though she’s a pia. (Pain in the ass )
I’m grateful my guy came out after he finished work, to fix some leaks in my irrigation.
I’m grateful for my children, their spouses, my Norma, and my Gus Bus. Grateful we will all be together soon for our very first family reunion. We haven’t been together, as a family, since his wedding, pre Pandemic. Now I’m thinking wow that’s a long fucking time.
I’m grateful I’m thinking new milestone here. First family reunion and my son and I are going to be sober for it, and more to come. I’m grateful we can celebrate his 10 years of sobriety, even though we don’t really celebrate it since we got baby’s and a shit ton of other blessings to be celebrating. I’m grateful I just thought I can get him a ten year chip. Even though I’ve never done that before for him. I’m grateful it’s his recovery and I haven’t got a clue what he does for it. I’m grateful I better verify that with his wife so I don’t make a fool of myself.
I’m grateful for my home thread and memories of our recovery together. Let’s go make some more recovery memories today. We got our backs.
Psychology Today says, “Grateful people experience fewer aches and pains and report feeling healthier than other people, according to a 2012 study published in Personality and Individual Differences. Not surprisingly, grateful people are also more likely to take care of their health . They exercise more often and are more likely to attend regular check-ups, which is likely to contribute to further longevity.”
