@Bootz I love watching chickens so much. Marvellous creatures, I could watch them for hours. So many personality quirks to every individual hen in a flock. And the baby chicks… nothing cuter :hatching_chick:

Today I am grateful for my physical and mental ailments being manageable, for not choosing to numb my challenging feelings with drugs/alcohol, for my sponsor’s good advice even when I dont follow it wholeheartedly, for my sober partner, for gainful employment and being able to pay my essential bills, for another weekend to catch up on emails and self-care, and for the sunny day :slight_smile:

I haven’t been practicing my gratitude in a looooong time. So today I’m thankful for:

Having a way to support my family. I’m not in the best place financially but it’s progress and not perfection.

I am healthy and I’m able.

I have a few people in my life who are supportive of my recovery even though I’m probably an intolerable asshole even on my good days.
