Today I am thankful for:
My day off giving me the ability to clean my nasty apartment. My good job that gives me days off. The good sleep I got last night. My mp3's. My cat. My motivation to clean my apartment. These forums, which give me a really good excuse to take breaks from cleaning my apartment. =) My life, my sobriety, my happiness. (I started this thread because I know when I make a gratitude list, it takes my mind away from anything I might not have at the moment, and makes me feel happy.)

I'm thankful for, PC, my parents and their computer, being able to go to school, understanding instructors that get it when you are sick and can't go to school, getting a good grade on my math test, having food, and a bunch of other things I can't think of right off the top of my head.

that a close gf had attentive doctors who ordered tests despite her young age and found a polyp which was removed in a laparoscopic surgery. pathology showed it would have turned cancerous most likely undetected since screening for this particular cancer isn't done until well into the 40's.
thankful she lives near major medical center, thankful her doctors listened and ordered more tests, thankful she didn't chicken out since the medical tests were not comfortable tests to take, thankful the surgery was trouble free, thankful her recovery is going well, thankful she is alive.

I am thankful for living long enough to understand what had happened to me, to recognise my defensive patterns and to gradually put them to one side.
Cheers, M

Today I am thankful that I have a really good book to read, very much enjoying it, The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova.
Thankful that the painters are almost done tromping through my apartment. And I am thankful that simple silly things like  this make me smile. (I think Paxil is working for me, whooooooo hoooooo!)

Today I am thankful for
Running water. Having a bolt hole in the greatest city on earth. Those wet wipes for cleaning the floor - wasteful but wonderful. Having a washing machine.

I am thanful for my job, yet very happy about a 3 day weekend!
The coffee and food at the diner, and the cool guy I met. My grandma. My dry bed and the heat of the desert. My sobriety.
