Today I am grateful for a shift in routine, but also later in expressing my gratitides. I am grateful for the rain especially as I have been driving past dozens of farms over the past 2 days all with very thirsty crops. Hurts my heart to see the burned up cornfields. I am grateful for a weekend away to breathe a bit and only focus on relaxation. Grateful for the seared tuna salad and cake I just ordered in the precious Cafe, where I will neither cook or do any dishes. I am also grateful for the lemonade that is not an alcoholic beverage ans will not prevent me from paddleboarding in the morning due to a hangover. I am also grateful for my sweet pups who are more than just companions but important family members. I appreciate the gift of TS and all of you.

Good morning, all.
Grateful that sometimes if you’re running bit late because you got up late because you slept a lot because you needed it, that you don’t have to write a long piece about your gratitude.
Grateful that all of your posts have already shifted my thinking and filled me up with gratitude.
Grateful to be sober.
Have a great sober day, all.

So grateful for this day seven. Challenging shift at work tonight and hoping I can hold it together and not buy booze on my way home in the morning. I’m grateful for so many amazing shares to read here and through these I know I will find strength.

Today I am grateful for independence and a day of doing what I want - no schedules, appointments or commitments. I am grateful for a beautiful day ahead and my cozy pups.

Good morning all,
I’m grateful for sunshine today. I’m grateful that husband and I were able to make 10 miles on the bicycles yesterday! I’m grateful for the relationship that my son has with his uncle- they get along really good, and he is one of the only people my son will willingly call and talk to. I’m grateful for my brother in law’s recovery. I’m grateful that I washed both dog beds yesterday, and they are so fluffy and nice today- like brand new. Luke and Leo are loving them! I’m grateful that so far today I feel calm and balanced.
Everyone have a wonderful day

Thanks @Sunflower1
I’m grateful how easy it was to find the gratitude thread this morning.
I was going to start off saying good morning grateful friends.
I’m so easily sidetracked.
I’m grateful for all the gratitude here. Yesterday was the first time I couldn’t get caught up on this thread. I’m so grateful to start my sober sugar free day here after my prayers and devotionals with Benson on my lap.
I’m grateful for the great day I had yesterday. Most of my days are pretty good. But yesterday just seemed to click and be great after all the shit I been through the past couple of three months. I mean I was just grateful to be driving my M3 going to the grocery store masked up with my tunes on. Not having a fuck to give!
We almost never go to the grocery store anymore since the pandemic.
I’m grateful I choose to be sober during a fucking pandemic. Pandemic Sober. It’s got to be a new or different kind of weird sobriety. But I’m liking it. But still strange.
I’m grateful for another beautiful day to convalesce on my beautiful deck outside and probably do less than I did yesterday.
I’m grateful for the nice dinner that was made for me at the club last night. And I passed on the oat meal cookies.
I’m grateful for teachers, first responders, firefighters, and healthcare professionals. Y’all rock!!
I’m grateful we got our passports in the mail yesterday it only took 5 or 6 weeks expedited. Now if we only had some place to go 
or more importantly the desire and willingness to go. Soon. No rush.
Sobriety was the greatest gift I ever game myself.

Today I’m especially grateful I loved to exercise and do sports from an early age. Grateful I kept loving to do 'm through long periods of my most unhealthy living. Grateful I had this crazy idea while smoking and drinking most of my life away over more than three decades it was nice to live both yin and yang, or that’s how I saw it. Grateful that in my mind that meant it was somehow nice and good to ‘party’ hard, use almost all I could get my hands on but still play basketball and football, and ride my bike and hike later on.
Grateful my body could take the abuse, both the sports and the booze and drugs, for here I am at 55, sober and clean -and incredibly grateful for that- still able to walk 30km and biking over 210km within a couple of days of each other and feel good both during and after that. I don’t deserve it but I am incredibly grateful I can. Grateful to all you here. Grateful I can share how grateful I am. Grateful I’m not alone. Grateful I feel love.

. I’m so glad you said it and put it into words.

Yes. Thanks to the wonderful hospital staff, various I.V. fluids and medications, I detoxed and they got my blood pressure and pulse rate under control. I’ve now been sober for 12 days.
