October 17 - Today I am grateful for:
Having energy first thing in the morning.
Having a busy day today.
Having tomorrow off of work to attend an early wheelchair accessible trick or treating event for my son.
Clean, well fitting clothes.
Medical supports - they reimburse us for our cab fares to appts, amongst other things.
My son. He makes me smile.

My sons medical team.
My supports including TS.

I’m grateful I can sit with Benson this morning.
I’m grateful he ate a little of the chicken and noodles I cooked for him.
I’m grateful when the wife is freaked out I can be the calm one. I’m grateful it works the other way too. I’m grateful how our marriage works.
I’m grateful I’m sober through all this mess with my dog. I’m grateful for all the sober warriors that came before me with their experience strength and hope when they were dealing with their very sick pets at their pets end stages of life. I’m grateful not only do we not need to drink, but we don’t want to.

Today I’m grateful for:
Old greeting cards you find in a drawer when you least expect it.
A son who loves to read. All those nights reading to him have left an imprint.
Sitting with the discomfort of loneliness. People and love are abundant, I can be creative and active during these times.
The mind that I was blessed with. It’s a good problem solver even if it puts in too much overtime.
A dog that licks my son’s feet to wake him up in the morning.
Good morning.
Today, I am grateful for:
- This place where I can log my daily gratitude.
- Two days down - onto Day 3
- Telling my husband that I started AA.
- AA - I’m not sure if I will do this program forever, but maybe I’ll give it the 90 day go.
- This delicious adaptogen mushroom coffee. Not sure if it it really good for me or not, but tastes good and the caffeine gives me an energy boost.
