Grateful for a new day even though it started late.
Grateful for the tools of recovery.
Grateful I don`t have to pick up a pill to deal with my pain. I looked muscle spasms and cramping on the internet because my son said to go to emergency and get a pill to deal with it.

Because I was in a lot of pain, I picked up my phone and called my ex-sponsor. She was the first lady I asked to sponsor me when I came into recovery. She later fired herself, because she was in too much pain to help me deal with my issues. I later asked her to sponsor me again.

Some people may not understand, but I heard her say, "What do you expect, I am an alcoholic?" I cringed, because my thought was, "I expect you to work the steps and apply them to your life." We are given daily reprieve. She also had a couple of issues that she wasn't willing to let go of, so I felt it was time to move onto someone else who was working a program, that I felt comfortable with. We have continued to keep in touch by phone. She is still a member of the Women's Group that I was a member of.

Tonight we shared about giving thanks, and I told her about the time I got the meditation card that said, "Give thanks, it is on it's way." I got up from the floor where I was doing my meditation, and the phone rang, and it was the solution to what I needed. While I was getting up, I said, "Thank you, Thank you, Thank you."

She said that if I was up and about around midnight, to give her a call, she was still a night person. It just may be the solution to the fact that my sponsor is out of the country until the end of this month.

I had prayed and asked for prayers for my son. She is a Reiki Master, and sent me some Reiki Healing for my migraine that I have had all day. I am so grateful that I am sitting now without any pain.

Grateful to my God and to the people who He puts in my path.

Grateful that she said, "Don't bring anything." I said I will bring myself, sometimes that is a chore in and of itself. Don't have the stuff on hand to bake and certainly no energy after all the work I did yesterday.
Grateful that we can take a day as it comes. What doesn't come, is okay, if it is meant to be, it will show up, on my God's time, not mine.
Grateful for all of you who travel this journey.

Grateful for a new day, even though it started many times. ;)
Grateful that I could come onto the site today and share with everyone.
Grateful when I am led to where I need to be and know what to ask for.
Grateful that I always seem to get the message that I need daily, for me, that is how the program works.
Grateful for daily readings, it is good to have a source of recovery shares that give me food for the day. Even for me, it isn't always easy to talk to myself.
Grateful for the post on acceptance, it is the key to my sobriety today. If I can't find acceptance, I can't live in today. I may survive, I may just be, but what I am being is depending of my acceptance. I accept my pain in today, where do I go from there? That is my choice and with the help of my God, we get through a day without using people, places and things in today.
Grateful for my sense of humour and the ability to see the funny side.
Grateful that my God is, as He reveals Himself to me in today.
Grateful for all who walk this journey with me.

Grateful that I am still sober.
Grateful that I don't abuse my medication. The new medication eases the pain, but don"t like all the sleeping, and the side affects are taking me to a place where I am thinking of going back to the pain, instead of not feeling like I am me. It has taken me to a place where I don't feel like I have sobriety, so God and I are working on it.
Grateful that I was able to get to the store today.
Grateful I connect with a couple of friends.
Grateful that each day is a new beginning. What I didn't get done today, there is hope for a better tomorrow. When it gets here, it is today. :)
Grateful for those who walk this recovery road with me.
