Tough one today so this is where I need to be.
I’m grateful for a safe place to sleep.
I grateful I can buy food to keep myself fed.
I’m grateful I have a healthy body.
I’m grateful that sometimes just asking for help from another person is the answer. My brother in law is coming over later to help wrangle a scaredy cat with me.
I’m grateful help is given when asked.
I’m grateful I might call in to work tomorrow.
There is a meme for everything! Good morning and have a great day.
Congratulations on the 5 month Laner
Great work!!
I’m grateful to God for lovingly guiding me one day at a time while helping me remain clean and sober. I’m grateful for my family and friends that support and challenge me. I’m grateful for music, humor and laughter. I’m grateful that my workplace allows dogs to come in and shop and for my cat Peace at home. I’m grateful that I went with my sponsee to his daughter’s wedding on the weekend for support, what a gift watching him work through that day. I’m grateful for the twelve steps.
May our higher powers grant us wisdom.
p.s. You are totally amazing. Ya you!!

Today I’m grateful for
- My home
- Food on my table
- The fellowship of alcoholics here
- My sobriety
- The love & companionship of my hubby
Thanks Jazzy. I don’t want to think about doing that again for at least a year.
Oh man I do hope you don’t have to worry about that again for some time. You are a great kitty momma - saw your text on the other thread and just want to reassure you that you are a loving parent and your kitties know and feel that love. They do hate change and that can’t be helped at times but you did do whatever you could to make this transition easier Grateful you were able to take the day off tomorrow to help them acclimate to the new home
Thank you. Water has left the crate and is currently hiding and Bird sniffed him out. I hope they are going to be okay. I super appreciate you and this supportive place.
Wednesday gratitude.
A short week
Perfect weather
Friendships
Laughter
Positivity
To read @TrustyBird was able to get her kitties to the new crib!
Thanks man! We are relaxing in the new place tonight and I haven’t seen Water since he left his crate. Hopefully he is healing and hiding a bit. 🩷🩷
He will come around! Just needs some time to adapt I’m sure.
He just peeked his head around a corner. My heart .
All feels well.
I just love how some of us here have been with you in spirit when we can’t be there in person. Talking Sober Folk are the best. Keep us informed of progress!
For sure. Kitties have both been spotted in the open. I think I heard someone drink water. We might be mending.
I cried today for the first time from sadness or stress, not a movie - really any movie and I’m a mess, in 2 years. Then it occurred to me, is this the most stressful thing that has happened to me since getting sober? If it is, I am crazy grateful. Is this what processing stress feels like in real time, wowza! I am very fortunate.
