Grateful i am sober. Grateful I know where I am and what I did last night.
Grateful that the kittens have each other. It’s so much fun watching them. Grateful they use their boxes.
Grateful it’s Sunday. Off.
Grateful my neighbour hasn’t complained about the noise yet. I have no idea how to explain 2 kittens to not run around in circles.
I’m grateful to read all these posts. Adulting is hard! And somedays, so is writing a gratitude list. But then, yes, somedays the hardest thing is to choose what to write from the mountain of things to be grateful for. Beautiful.
I’m grateful to see @anon74766472’s kittens! And her post on the other thread about her 1000 days! Congrats, dear Gratidude. You’ve earned every one of those days and those kittens are blessed to have you!
I’m grateful the dog girl and I got safely to our destination, and that we’re tuckered out and ready to tuck in.
I’m grateful the whole need-a-cold-one-after-a-road-trip knee-jerk mechanism in my mind is wayyyyy weaker than it was last year. The drive was hot, there is smoke from the fires in the air, and every second highway billboard was a booze ad! Not that it makes a difference to this girl. Because I don’t drink.
I’m grateful I get to see my Mom tomorrow. And then a hometown pal for a hug and a walk. All of it will do my heart good. Even if some of it is hard. I’m grateful for the support of friends here, friends near and far. I’m grateful for how much more connected I feel to others, how much better and deeper my relationships are, because I’m sober.
I’m grateful for another day.
Im grateful to wake up today
Im grateful for this new day
Im grateful for coffee
This morning I’m grateful for another rainy summer day as it helps to make my town and country the lush green place I know and love. I’m grateful I’ve woken up sober and clean and now I can enjoy my coffee and breakfast hangover free.
I’m grateful I can spend time on TS, reading about everybody’s lives, and sharing some of mine. Feeling uplifted and inspired, even by the struggles people post about, grateful they feel safe enough to share here, grateful they are brave enough to do so. Hopeful they find some support and strength here. Grateful I do find support and strength here, each and every day, one day at a time.
I’m grateful I still have the day ahead of me, grateful I feel free to fill it as I like, and not feel the obligation or necessity to have to go to the bar and drink because it’s the last day of the weekend or some other stupid reason. Grateful I don’t feel there’s any reason to drink. Because there is none.
I’m grateful for and to you all here, grateful to know so many of you, some better, some less, but all playing a crucial part in my recovery. All of you. Good days and bad ones. Grateful I can express some of the love I have right here right now. Grateful for the love I feel. Grateful to be alive. I don’t think I ever said that before. Hugs and love all.
Today I am grateful to wake up without a hangover having had a sober day, and intend for another. I am grateful for a great orientation into a new "on the side"job doing work I will love alongside some pretty cool people. I am grateful for the cookout at my mom’s we had last night to break a little bread and catch up with a family friend. To be able to do these things without worry of how/when/where and how much to drink is a great way for me to live. It removes so much stress from the situation and, of course, formerly I thought drinking was helping to eliminate stress!! Not for me, no sir. I am grateful I have learned that. As always I appreciate TS and the gratidudes and hope for amazing days for each of you.
Congrats on setting a marraige date!!! That is so wonderful!
So grateful to be enjoying a quiet sober Sunday am with my dog and no hangover. For being able to see the beauty in this life
Congratulations Holly, I know you are so happy and excited finally set a date. Marriage is a bond between two people that love, care, trust and respect each other. Is it covenant between them and God to care for only each other in a way no one else should. There’s a lot of responsibility that comes with marriage. My spouse and I have been married for 40 years a lot of people say it’s a 50/50 responsibility but I’m here to say it is a 100/100. If you have a problem go to your spouse not to your friends or family your spouse deserves to know first.
I’ve been very fortunate in my marriage My spouse is a great person he is kind, patient, and understanding that’s what it takes in a marriage. I look around at my friends from the past and even family members and I know I have been blessed in many ways for most of them or divorced and remarried not once but twice. I wish for you in marriage the same that I in mine God has blessed me with. I’m not going to sit here and tell you that is always been easy because it’s not 40 years of living with somebody is not always ups but I will tell you that it has been a journey that I would not ever turn away from If I had the choice to repeat. Just remember never go to bed angry, or mad. Always say goodnight and I love you. Remember when you wake up in the morning it’s a new day, never bring yesterday’s sorrows into the sunlight of today its always a new day and yesterday’s sorrows don’t belong there. Because sorrows are only, I’m sorry for the pain that was not what is to be the beauty of today… I wish you all the luck in the world Just remember your spouse loves you and you love them. I hope you didn’t mind a little bit of advice, I hope I didn’t step on your toes or anything. I like caring for other people and I care about you! Good luck I hope you have a wonderful marriage that lasts forever and have wonderful wonderful things to come!.
We have been together for 20 years so we honestly are just changing my last name

Grateful the French Roast was a little bit better this morning as I didn’t use heaping scoops.
I’m grateful for the courage and example Simone Biles showed us all at the Olympics to take care of herself first. That must have been one of the hardest decisions in her life. God Bless her

Did I mention I’m doing it sober
I’m grateful If all goes well I’ll be having dinner with my daughter and SIL tonight.
I’m grateful for the life test in front of me the next few days.
I’m grateful that while I’ll be all alone in Santa Monica, with absolutely no responsibilities, I won’t spend one moment getting wasted. This would have been a Golden Hall Pass for the old me.
I’m grateful for the pounding hangover and upset stomach that I will not be having tomorrow.
I’m grateful for gratidudes!
Side note. Does anyone remember the saying “I’m cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs,” the cereal jingle? That’s what always pops in my head when I think “I’m grateful for gratidudes”
May the evil foe (alcohol) have no power of me
Safe travels, Eric.
I am grateful that I no longer put alcohol on a pedestal and that I can see it for what it is. Poison.
I am grateful for whatever time I have left with my Mom and Dad and I don’t plan to waste any of it.
I am grateful for cat naps with Will.
Safe travels @Dazercat keep us gratidudes posted, sending positive vibes your way
Good evening all,
Im grateful for a day swimming and visiting with my parents. We all shared lots of laughs, and it helped relieve the kids anxiety about starting school tomorrow. Im grateful that I have my parents still. Im grateful that I am able to get out in the sunshine either bicycling, swimming, walking, whatever I can do. It helps me feel more strong and positive- like a sunflower haha! Im grateful to be watching a movie with my family and relaxing now, getting ready for the first day of school. Im grateful to be sober.
Everyone have a wonderful evening❤️
I’m grateful to God thank you for helping me make it through another day clean and sober. I’m grateful that my housemate got safely moved to his new place today. I’m grateful that I took the time to clean the fridges today, smells better. I’m grateful that I cleaned up almost the entire house actually. I’m grateful that I am the keyholder again to the church where my NA homegroup meets and we had a wonderful meeting tonight. I’m grateful for my family and miss living close to them, maybe that can motivate me to get back a license and car which would obviously make it easier to see them. I’m grateful that I have Disney+ and it’s chill out and relax time. I’m grateful for all your shares and all you gratidudes.
God bless you all. &
p.s. Don’t forget you are a fricking star, shine bright. Ya you!!

Grateful to have no acid reflux or upset stomach and only the slightest trace of anxiety.
Grateful that was able to see and talk to my parents yesterday evening via the magic of FaceTime. Grateful that people with more drive, motivation and intelligence than me bothered to invent and produce things like iPhones and FaceTime. They really are a miracle.
Grateful that my kids were able to get covid vaccines yesterday. Another miracle.
Grateful for my wife who I love dearly. I’m not sure I’ll ever completely understand her, but I love her anyway.
Grateful for all of your shares which inspire me daily.
