Daily Gratitude, The Air Of Recovery #7

@lisa07 So very grateful that your hubby is ok and is able to have your ride while his truck gets fixed :pray:

SO glad you are enjoying your trip home and what a wonderful way to put it! Absolutely amazing to feel the connection of belonging. You are now part of our TS family too love :hugs:

Sunday gratitude’s - So very grateful for:

  • Getting my physical activities (walk, swim, weights and cardio) done this morning even though I did not sleep well last night. Hoping to finish the day off with some yoga
  • Got to chat with my aunt in Germany today. She is one of my favorite people and I’m glad I was able to connect with her as she is going through a hard time
  • Getting all my work for the restaurant done. I haven’t been able to do much for so long that it’s nice to contribute some more these days. ODAAT!
  • Getting cozy in my Halloween sweats and watching some scary movies.
  • Going to give myself a mani / pedi shortly
  • For my family! For the love and support I get from them daily. For them being by my side during this recovery. I know I’ve not been easy to deal with.
  • Spotify! Love how I can listen to whatever i want when i want it. How amazing is that!
  • Love that Amazon now as live tv (guess its been happening for a minute but I just found out). Seeing old SNL skits kept me entertained yesterday when I couldn’t sleep LOL
  • Having leftovers from last nights dinner as my late breakfast option today when I burnt my croissant.
  • For my TENS machine that will hopefully help ease some of this pain i’m in.

Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening! Sending you all so much love :heart: :heart:

I’m grateful for being able to have a counselor now and that I like her. I’m grateful for this morning hike and that it helped bring my anxiety down. I’m grateful for the eagles I saw again. I found where they live and will keep an eye on them. I’m grateful for my new friend. I’m grateful for how fascinating languages and am enjoying learning a new dialect. I’m seriously amazed at how similar to Kyrgyz it is when Karakalpakstan is located a ways from here- am interested to learn the history more. I’m grateful for creamy tomato soup and fresh basil. I’m grateful for getting the grant for the translation project and have heard from a neighboring country that they also have interest in this resource being translated. So maybe I’ll have that to do in Uzbek when I’m finished with Kyrgyz. Really loving how excited social services is about this one! I’m grateful for an easy evening in relaxing and having a cuddle with the dogs.

monday gratitude.
i’m grateful i tackled the dammed internet nonfunction. seems that the lan ports are broken. fuck the ā€œsupportā€ hotline who could have checked that easily the 5 times I called. After hours of excluding every other problem … I set up the new PC with mobile hotspot :roll_eyes: what a crap, like using an old 56k modem, but grateful I got it. Now my nerves are done, after 2 other hotlines telling me bullshit and figuring it out on myself. Oh Jesus, I KNOW why I quit doing this crap 20 years ago. It’s enervating. I’m grateful the basics are working.

I’m grateful it was not hot today, very comfortable temperatures for me going up and down to the cellar level where the modem is. Lots of stairs today :wink:

I’m grateful for enough toilet paper at home, yesterday’s overeating took its toll.

I’m grateful for lazy cats sleeping all day while I was working.

I’m grateful I tackle things I really dislike. ODAAT

Things I am especially grateful for today.

I spent the morning in my favourite book shop. It’s always the hardest part of my visit cause: books!!! In my native language! Really good books!
When I left my home country as a child it was very soon very clear that I will not go back home. Basically never again. I might go and visit, but never go back.
So everytime I go back to this country I am a visitor. What has kept me connected and lessened my loss somewhat were family visits and books. I will never get that home of mine back, but I can find some solace in books, in my mother tongue.

So today was about books, about being something in between: Visiting and coming home at the same time, and none of it completely.

I had some nice chats with people in town, enjoyed the sun, the trees around here, just life.

I think I am going to log into a Recovery Dhana meeting later.

Sleep tight sober friends :night_with_stars:

Thankful for the new football/ soccer team I joined last week. As long as I get my daily 8h of sleep and 2-3 good sport sessions a week, I can manage so much better. Grateful I really understand that now, took me long enough, even though you can read this everywhere.
