Sunday
A day of rest after church.
Groceries are bought before the storm.
Good friendships I am making through church. If you would have asked me before my husband’s death would I have the connections/friends through church I have today, I would have not believed it. Very grateful. :)
A roof over my head, even if it needs lots of work.
God.
My son.
Staying sober another day and not smoking.
A great church service this morning.
Hot comfort food. :)

A day off from work. Very nice.
The luxury of having an A.A. meeting so close to my house that I could attend last night and see old friends and enjoy the recovery in the room.
A sunny day, albeit cold again.
My dog, Jax, snoozing by my feet.

An old A.A. friend offering me a ride home last night even though I was just about a block and a half away. Thanks B!
A good cup of coffee.

Love, in its many forms. :)
Heat in my house.
