Daily Gratitude, The Air Of Recovery #7

Awe :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I’m grateful for you too, and for thinking of me! I missed you too (and so many more) when I fell off. Sometimes I think if covid never happened I’d be closing in on 5 years, but then I realize I don’t know that for sure. I’m just grateful to be here now, and that you and so many others were still here to welcome me back :heart:

I’m grateful for this thread that I miss. Kinda dropped the ball on posting here everyday :sweat_smile: I miss the meme thread too, but I’m grateful I knew it should be the first to go when I don’t have the time. I’m grateful I know my limits when I’m busy and don’t try to burn the candle at both ends(too often :grimacing:). I’m grateful I made Checking In Daily my #1 priority upon returning this time, and think I’ve only missed 2-3 days in over a year. I’m grateful my mind comes up with weird rules sometimes, like ‘I have to read thru every post before I’m allowed to post my own’. I’m grateful that means I never get behind more than a days worth of posts. I’m grateful you got me in here today Eric :pray: I do feel gratitude in my life, but actually taking time to think about and list it reminds me there’s even more. I’ll definitely be popping in more often with the slow season on it’s way :grin:

I’m grateful for the word Kerfuffle. I don’t use it enough. At all :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: neither does spell check :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I’m grateful for Ketchup.
I’m grateful for Kite flying. Don’t do much of that lately either. Good memories of younger days.
I’m grateful for Kagaroos and the Kangeroo Song :notes: :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I’m grateful for Kindness. Especially random acts of Kindness :blush:

I’m grateful I’m not Killing myself with my poisonous Booze anymore.

I’m grateful the Kennel at our vet won’t board Alice :grimacing: she’s too old :cry: I’m going to take it as a blessing and we will just have to find someone to pet/house sit for us when we need to travel. Fuckers! In the long run it will be less stressful for all.

I’m grateful when my cats act Kittenish.
I’m grateful for my Keepsakes

I’m also grateful for:

  • God, Jesus, higher power and being able to have connection with them as long as my heart is open and mind honest
  • being persistent and disciplined as far as my daily diet and training plans are concerned
  • job and fact it’s well paid
  • being healthy and my condition is improving

Some of the things I am grateful for today.

Normal daily life is back. My daughter has been to school two days in a row, no migraines, no other difficulties. I am so grateful for that. For the peace that comes with this regularity, instead of worries for my child.

I started working on my game again. After a two months long summer break I assumed it would take me a while to get back into the mindset. Turns out it took me only a bit to get back into things. I even resolved one significant problem. I realised after all the technical prototyping I‘ve been doing, it‘s about time I get into the nitty gritty of the dramatic parts of it: story telling, setting up scenes, premises, characters, world building, story arcs. I so love my work.

Had enough energy to get all kinds of stuff done from my todo list this afternoon and do a yoga practice. I‘m glad I did so. It always leaves me feeling much better.

Now I‘m off to a meeting.

Sleep tight sober friends :night_with_stars:

Hey guys!!! I know it’s been AWHILE since I’ve checked in but I’m still here and still sober! Wish I could tell you I was doing ok but that just simply isn’t the case. Medically, I’m in between surgeries for carpal tunnel right now. I got the left side done and still waiting to get the right side done. I have a condition called hortons disease ( I’ve had since I was 24 ) and I’m now in cycle, we’ll have been since February. It’s really kicking my ass right now. I’ve missed a ton of work etc and falling behind on literally everything. This isn’t anything new to me though, I’ll manage. Just really haven’t been myself lately and struggling to gain any type of motivation. Really feel lost right now. Anyways, enough about me . Hoping you all are doing well and holding up. I’m 582 days in and still counting.
I’ve missed this community. Time to get this app and you guys back in a daily’s rotation. As always peace and love to all of you!
