Good morning. I see the the gratitude door is already open and the coffee is at just the right temperature. I love when the coffee is at just the right temperature and you can take those first couple of big glugs and feel it’s wonderful warmth going to work inside.
I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful for the topic Jon @Inneed started. I like to check it out every day when there’s a new poster. Relapse is NOT a requirement for sobriety there’s some really good shares on it.
I’m grateful I got Benson Burner on my lap keeping me warm. The heat is on. It’s only 30 degrees outside but it will warm up to the 60’s. I’m grateful for the spring mountain weather.
I’m grateful for the cancellation at the vets and I can get Benson in for his shot and “tails and nails” today. Otherwise I would not have been able to get him in before our trip.
I’m grateful I like to play my random playlists and Lindsey Sterling came on. I love her violin and music. I added some of her stuff to my favorites playlist. I was turned on to her over Christmas and totally forgot about her.
I’m grateful for my love of a wide variety of music. I can listen to almost anything and enjoy it. Still struggling with country music but there are a couple of country songs I like.
Grateful for another day and that I mentioned Bensons last minute appointment, because of the cancellation, because otherwise I might have forgot about it today.
Promise me you’ll always remember you’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

Grateful being sober.
Grateful for having a spontaneous day off.
Grateful for having had my grandma who was very wise and grateful. We received a draft from a lady who wrote an article like meditation text about my grandma that will be published in June in their community magazine. So sweet and she was indeed like this. She called my grandma just the day when she was moving to retirement home without knowing of that.
Grateful for my colleague with who I can really really laugh.
I am thankful for a mind that is clear, sharp, awake not numb, swimming in self denial, illusions and confusion.
The sun is out, I have a job I enjoy, I am madly in love, I have so much to be thankful for. I am blessed to have found sober apps!!
11 days its amazing what a difference I already feel, I look forward to what is to come.
Grateful for my cat (always). My family who are unconditionally supportive. For the tiny voice that is fighting so hard to squash down the large voice that replays my mistakes or tells me how much people hate me. And evening baths with inspiring podcasts.
Today I am grateful for:
- the day to almost be over.
- to have made it through, sober.
- for my ever understanding and wonderful partner. I’m so lucky to have him.
- for remembering to still be grateful, even though today has been difficult.
- I get another shot at all this tomorrow (hangover free).
Nite nite everyone
x
Today I’m grateful for so many things. The amusement my cats gave me. The time I spent on reading journals. A shifted appointment, I had a nice after-lunch-nap instead. An unbelieveable productive afternoon deep into the evening. All in all a very nice day. Thank you world, universe, God and all the good people & pets
Im gratefull for reuse. Today I got my son a “New” bike for almost nothing. His face when he got it : priceless 
Oh, tomorrow be better, Fran! I am grateful to read your list and be inspired by it.
Nite nite for you now, When you wake I hope it is with a smile at the new day! 
I’m grateful to God thank you for continuing to love and guide me. I’m grateful for my recovery and that it evolves. I’m grateful that my Mom reached out for help and advice today and that I am aware enough to help. I’m grateful that I cried today for all the loss and gain. Loss of freedom throughout a pandemic, loss of a crutch in addiction, loss of life from both. Gain of freedom and life through recovery. I’m grateful for the twelve steps. I’m grateful that I cooked a nice dinner for about 18 people and it was pretty good.
I’m grateful that even though I made a ton of dishes I didn’t have to wash them.
I’m grateful for TS and the gratidudes.
God bless you all.

p.s. it’s snowing here and its cool, like you. Ya you!!
Good evening all,
I’m grateful for the Recovery Elevator episode that I listened to while making dinner, and it happened to be just what I needed to hear. Thank you God, or universe, or whatever higher power you believe in. I’m grateful I was sober and able to receive the message instead of drinking. I’m grateful for my foot massager because my feet are hurting. I’m always grateful for you guys, and all the gratitude that I see daily. Good night all
Im grateful that I’m sober today. That I didnt throw in the towel. That I’m willing to try again. That I had enough focus this morning to do some studying (currently studying towards a bachelor’s degree) and man, drinking really messes with that. Grateful to be alive after all the stupid shit I have done over the years. Have a good day everyone x
I’m grateful to be laying in bed with my little pack, my white noise machine, and this thread to catch up on before sleep. I’m grateful for all the second chances available in recovery, that my friends back home are still connected and we got support for our pal who is finally willing to give treatment a go. I’m grateful that I’m kicking my recovery work up a notch and started reading the big book of AA and will start chatting with my sober friend about step work on Sunday. I’m grateful for my sweet home that is getting some upgrades and reorganization. Grateful for you, amigos. 
Morning everyone! Cold one here this morning but just about to go for my run to get my day going . Day 72 of being sober . Have completed the couch to 5 k app during this time which has been brilliant and something I couldn’t have done with a hangover .
Moved onto Nike running app now which has some great runs to try out and some banging music !
Hope everyone has a great sober day x
Thank you @M-be-free49, I’m so glad yesterday is done.
Hate feeling so low and sad. Glad I’m on here though and I have the support of fab people like you.
Another thing to be grateful for
Today I’m grateful it’s another sun-shiny day out there…
…that even though yesterday didn’t go totally according to my calm little plan (does it ever?) it was still a good day. Some things might’ve even gone better - if I keep an open mind. 
…that I’m starting to see that even though life doesn’t go according to my plans, it still works out - you know? I like a whole lotta things about right now that I never would planned out for myself, say 10-20 years ago.
…that I’m slowly and steadily working through my spring “to do” list and getting stuff done around home and desk. Slow and steady. Nice to have the energy and mental bandwidth to take care of things in my life. Glad to be working from home so I can putter away at things on the sidelines.
…for all the trails and paths around where I live and how much joy I get from walking them everyday, but especially the after-work-walk with the dog girl. (Which is wayyyy more enjoyable when I’m not looking forward to getting home to fill a wine glass!)
…that I had a couple spontaneous calls yesterday - one with Mom and one with a dear old pal. That we can still connect this way despite distance and a pandemic.
I’m grateful for another day.
Im grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful to God for the willingness to be sober.
I’m grateful to God for nature.
I grateful to God for Cat Purring. Stole that from my wife. As Daisy has really worked up a purr session on my lap.
I’m grateful to God for Pets.
I’m grateful to God, who else can make a tree or a plant?
I’m grateful for my quiet times in the morning. My health. The ability to hear and see and touch and feel.
I’m grateful for all my blessings.
I’m grateful today has been 2 weeks since my last jab and that’s suppose to mean I’m fully vaccinated and we can go out cautiously and responsibly and try out the new normal. Whatever the fuck that is suppose to be.
I’m grateful Open Table still works as I made a reservation for dinner Friday night after my wife gets her hair done first time in over a year. I hope I remember how to act in a restaurant.
I’m grateful when I do go to a restaurant I won’t be wondering where the hell is my drink 
why is it taking so long to get my drink 
No I won’t 
I’ll be sitting there calmly with my water waiting on my sparkling water and I won’t care how long it takes to get to me.
Grateful for all the gratidues especially the new ones and some of the lurkers out there. Ya you 
You’re still sober. Keep that shit up.
Iam grateful for onother day of life
For my career for humanity for our loved ones and for those who are no longer with us for the air we breathe for getting sober 
Grateful to see you checking in here Trucker J. This thread has been my solid rock the last 475 days. Never miss a day of gratitude.
Today I’m grateful to fall asleep soon. I’m pretty tired from a day of work I mostly enjoyed. I’m grateful for take away food. It might not be too healthy, but it’s a comfortable thing adding to my quality of life when I’m busy. I’m grateful I have no grasp on my brother-in-law, otherwise he would play soccer with his own head. Grateful for my cats to purr away any anger and remind me on the essentials of life: cuddles, food and sleep
I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday. I’m grateful to God please help me stay clean and sober just for today. I’m grateful for my recovery. I’m grateful for my family and that they still love me after decades of chaos. I’m grateful for a daily reprieve through working the steps. I’m grateful for all my friends and all you gratidudes. I’m grateful that this practice of gratitude has helped me so much that even when I’m crying like yesterday I can be grateful and find hope amidst the tears. I’m grateful for music.
God bless you all. &
p.s. You are amazing and you’re doing it. Ya you!!
