Today I’m grateful for rain. There was heavy thunderstorm last night, I didn’t expect that. Spares me from watering the garden and was so needed by nature. Grateful it is a bit cooler this morning because of the rain. Grateful I feel refreshed and some kind of peaceful. Grateful I will have breakfast soon. Grateful for a lot of wonderful tea in my cupboard. Grateful my husband told me, he will stay home next week and we focus on moving again. We need to do this together. Still a lot to do before the new home is ready for moving in. Grateful I can have lazy days when I need them, mostly. Grateful that I feel the need for relaxing and recharging my batteries instead of carrying on with beeing productive until total exhaustion hits me.

Today I am grateful for decent sleep and no hangover. I grateful for a yesterday with no alcohol and hope for a similar today. I am grateful for coffee and quiet time in the morning to breathe and journal and just BE. I am grateful for the approaching weekend where I will begin a “new every now and then” job at a nursery and will take a day trip to the beach. I am very grateful for TS and you all.

Good morning all,
I’m grateful that I slept good last night. I’m grateful that I do in fact feel better than the last couple days. I’m grateful that I have a day off work. I’m grateful that I no longer feel guilt about taking time off work to take care of life things. I’m grateful that my kids are healthy and happy. I’m grateful that my husband talked to me last night about some things that are stressing him out, and some things that I do that make him feel…. Well I guess I can make him feel unimportant and unheard. That was pretty hard to hear. Really hard. It’s even harder to not react defensively. But, if I expect him to accept the changes that I am making and will make in our lives, I need to accept that he needs something different from me too. Being an adult is hard!
Anyways, I’m grateful to have this place to read through, and this thread to keep my spirits up and remind me there is so much to be grateful for.
Everyone have a wonderful day

I’m grateful to God I don’t drink or depend on booze.
I’m grateful for a warm cat on my lap.
I’m grateful for all my pets and purrs in the morning.
I’m grateful my yard guy finally showed up late yesterday to do some weed whacking around here.
I’m grateful for my wonderful vet who took the time to explain quite a few things about boarding our cats and dogs in October. I grateful and love the way she spent her time with us and never seemed rushed to get to the next appointment.
I’m grateful for where I live and my house. It doesn’t feel like home still. But I’m grateful to have a place and call it home.
I’m grateful I got a workout in yesterday and the attitude of “what’s the point?” (Since I won’t be able to work out next week,) never entered my mind.
I’m grateful for my wife and kids and mom and dad and sisters. And my maternal grandparents. 
And the way I was brought up.
I’m grateful for the hard working, strong, family values I have.
I’m glad I learned at a rehab that I am in the category of being a “rescuer.” And that it’s fucking exhausting, and that I don’t have to be that way. And I’m grateful when I remember that.
I’m grateful for every one of you!
Ya, every one of you! 
Brian
Dear little me,
You took on so much that was never yours to carry.
We can set it down now whenever you are ready.
Love,
Me

I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to stay clean and sober. I’m grateful for my recovery and that I value it so much. I’m grateful for my family that somehow continue to stand by me showing me how true love really works. I’m grateful that I have something to do all the time. I’m grateful I’m constantly learning to pace myself and to remember I don’t have to do it all, just try my best and to remember to take the time to do things for me, because I matter too. I’m grateful for people, and that if I practice my honesty, open mindedness and willingness I can learn something from them regardless of age, race , sexuality or religion. I’m grateful for the grati-dudes. I’m grateful that my housemate just handed me my pay stub and now I know I can afford to stop and get food and drink. I’m grateful that it’s one of the days that I get to cook for the clients in treatment and chair an AA meeting. I’m grateful that I have time to enjoy the walk over today and get some excersise and music in yay.
God bless you all. 
&
p.s. Big virtual hugs and high fives because you rock. Ya you!!

I’m grateful to be catching up on this thread. I’m grateful that I don’t drink and have so many reminders (especially your posts) of why it’s so much better to be sober. Even when it’s painful. I really appreciated a post I read where someone (Holly, I think) was feeling grateful she could feel pain. That was so deep and really made me think differently about gratitude.

Good morning, all.
Grateful to be sober again on this beautiful morning. Being hangover free when I have time off from work is such a gift. Last summer, I drank heavily for 36 out of 44 days and felt awful for 36 mornings and days. I did exactly the same thing for the previous 26 summers. I am so grateful to finally be free.
Grateful for every single share on this thread. They are thought provoking in a way that really satisfies me.
Grateful for trying to work out what I am most grateful for. It means that I cycle through the hundreds of things that I am grateful for every day to find the few that I will post in here. That process works a little bit of magic in my head.
Have a great day, everyone.

Today I am grateful to wake up hangover free. I am grateful my blood pressure is back in normal range after making lifestyle changes, one of them being not drinking alcohol. I am grateful to see the cute kittens @anon74766472 - precious. I am also grateful for what @Singtone said -
That really resonates with me as the beauty of this whole thing! Such a great practice.

Good morning 
y’all.
I’m grateful for another day hangover free and sober thank God!
I’m grateful the headache I had most of the day yesterday is almost gone. I think maybe the coffee and water this morning will knock it out. However (I’m grateful I can bitch here,) I don’t think it’s fair I get headaches when I don’t drink. I’m grateful my headache wasn’t from drinking. I’m grateful I’ve never had a really debilitating headache or suffered a migraine. I cannot imagine how awful that must feel.
I’m grateful for my chonky cat on my lap.
I’m grateful I spent a few minutes just listening to her purr and settle in before I did any of my devotionals or prayers.
I’m grateful I don’t get angry at as much shit as I use to. Like I had to bring the car back down to the dealer because after they fixed it now the radio and CD player don’t work. And I had to make another appointment mid August for them to look at it 
What are ya going do? I didn’t have anything else to do yesterday.
I’m grateful for my sober life.
Im grateful for my freedom from the chains of alcohol.
Im grateful for all the celebrations of milestones on the check in thread. Every fucking day sober is a gift and a milestone.
Im grateful I know the happiness Franzi is going to feel with Milky and Dora. No, you will not be alone anymore. And I can’t wait to see more pics.
I am also so very grateful to come here to this thread and share my gratitude and more and read everyone else’s gratitude that you all are kind enough to share.
Thank you everyone.
Don’t ever loose the spark that makes you.
