Thankful for having a job even though its so far away from my family. But even more thankful that I will be spending the next 3 weeks with them! Go Delta ;)
 
As of today, I am most thankful for my good friends that told me how much i changed when I got prescribed OC. Didn't comprehend it until now, but I got mad love they changed my life around. fuck narcotics on the topic of things im not haha! :X:)? can't wait til the worst wd's are over.
 
my daughter and the way that having her in my life has caused me to choose to grow as a human being in ways i otherwise never would have bothered with
 
Ganja and being alive.
I've had a few runs for my life. I fell into a rapid-flowing river that was frozen over by ice yesterday. If I didn't stop myself before going in, I by no means would have survived. I have a shattered elbow, so it was super hard to get out. I felt the ice around me breaking. I made one final pull to get out and barely made it.
 
Today I am thankful for being 31 days clean from a 10 year opiate habit ending in a sustained, no-breaks three year opiate BINGE. These have been the hardest 31 days of my life (and I've been shot, sexually abused, physically abused, etc etc), and I am grateful every single day that I had the strength & endurance to hold steady. If I die tomorrow, I die clean and with dignity.

I am thankful for sleep. I am thankful for tea. I am thankful for feeling hunger. I am thankful that my brain actually seems to be healing, albeit excruciatingly slowly. I am thankful for clear eyes. I am thankful for seeing my pets and my family, really seeing them, again. I am thankful for the person who took care of me and kept me in clean pajamas and sheets through the first awful weeks of acute withdrawal. I am thankful that for the first time ever, I got clean with lots of opiates left in the house, and flushed them last week.

Lastly, I am thankful for the lessons learned from those I loved and love who didn't get as lucky as me. Rest in peace, my lovelies.
