Really?! How exiting!! You’re going to be a grandpa any hour now. I’m excited for you. Praying all goes well with delivery.
Congratulations on 30 days!
Is Norma one of the new grandkids? I’m SO happy for you, and everything will go well. Soon you will be a Grandpa!! You will be amazing, keep us posted.
I’m grateful yesterday was the day I needed. My little northern garden may flourish yet! Errands. Sorting and tidying my physical space. Lotsa walks. And all the while, ironed out a few cranky wrinkles in my inner world.
I’m grateful to find spontaneous joy in small, everyday things. (Much easier when sober!). Like yesterday’s stop at the little coffee shop here that lets dogs on the patio. I dunno what these people do to a sandwich - but I can never replicate those 2 pieces of GF bread (that tastes like bread) stuffed with every fresh veggie and herb you could ever want. And they always throw in an extra piece of cheese on the side for the dog girl.
I’m grateful to learn more about Impermanence, and how my struggles with it have contributed to my own suffering. I want things to change now - my way! And other things to never ever change - ever! Grateful while sorting, yesterday, I found a “Godwink” (yes, thank you @Cjp!): a steno notebook, has to be about 45 years old. With my mom’s beautiful cursive writing on the cover. “Songs for the Car.” Full of Simon and Garfunkel, lots of John Denver, a few Beatles, etc. Some hymns too - Amazing Grace, though I never remember singing “to save a wretch like me” on a road trip. There’s still time, M! Maybe in August when I head on my road trip, I’ll sing Amazing Grace and some Gordon Lightfoot and throw down some extra gratitude for my Mom, for my dear folks.
I’m grateful for the good long phone chat with a dear old gal pal last night - that I can talk so openly to her about recovery. For another day ahead - this one mostly to make sense of my home desk (perfectly suits a rainy day). For my yoga mat. For a meeting tonight. For all of you G-dudes and this home thread.
I’m grateful for another day.
Oh, I’m so grateful for the things we have to celebrate!
Huge gratitude for you and congrats on your 30 days, @maxwell !
And bring on baby Norma @Dazercat!
I sense some cake may be in order…
Hi! I’m happy to read you feel better today I’m glad you could post when you’re having a bad day. I’ve learned by experience it helps a lot. My meltdown on here last month is the reason I’m here today. Have a wonderful day!
I’m grateful for sunshine (we don’t get that much here in uk so when it comes at the weekend it feels like a lovely treat).
I’m grateful for not being hungover in the sunshine.
I’m grateful for loving family.
I’m grateful for music.
I’m grateful for health.
Today is a good day.
Awesome Photo!
30 days!!! Pure awesome!!
Per your suggestions, I’m giving The Bear another chance. I also see that it has 97% liked. I remember almost giving up on Breaking Bad early on, but I pushed through the 1st couple and was hooked, one of the best series ever written.
I’m grateful for my 139th consecutive sober Sunday!
I’m grateful for all the choices recovery has given me on how to spend my day.
I could work on my boat. I could go on a hiking/biking photography adventure. I could work on videos or paint. I had none of these options as a drunk.
I already allowed myself to sleep in. Its much better than coming to.
I’m grateful I know where I’m at when I wake up. It wasn’t always like that for me.
I’m grateful for a quiet phone and quiet social media. I used to wake up to the aftermath of the shit storm I created the night before. I don’t miss that. Quiet is good! Peaceful!
I’ve been feeling really good about myself lately. I’m grateful for that.
I’m grateful I don’t allow other peoples drama in my life anymore. Its been smooth sailing.
I’m grateful for smooth sailing!
You forgot ‘I could post Meme’s to the Meme War thread’. Congratulations on 139!
That’s my buddy Rich’s back yard in Colorado near Breckenridge.
I’m so very grateful for the miracle this afternoon.
Norma Jo G. 6 pounds 9 ounces.
I’ll just be over here crying for awhile.
And just like that a grandfather and grandmother are born. Wishing you all every happiness and every joy. Congratulations to all and many blessings.
Sending a heartfelt welcome to the new little love of your life. May she be happy and healthy all of her days.
Grateful for all of it.
Congratulations!!!
