Grateful that I will get to be near the sea today and spend some time alone with my own thoughts by it - pretty healing stuff. Grateful for resources out there to learn from. Grateful for early mornings and good food.

Good morning all,
Iām up and the house is quiet. Itās a little strange. The kids spent the night with some of our other family- is this what it will be like when they leave the nest? I feel grateful to have some quiet time to think and read on here, but Iāll be honest- Iād rather have the kids around haha! Iām grateful that my coffee tastes magical this morning. Iām grateful that I have food prep planned for today. Iām hoping that prepping like this helps me counteract work stress during the week. Iām grateful for the garden my husband and I have started. Iām grateful for all of you guys on here.
Everyone have a wonderful day

Today Iām grateful:
- for my husband. He is my best friend, partner, and one of the most conscientious and kind people Iāve ever known, and he loves me unconditionally. He helps me love myself. He wants me to be happy, and though he knows he canāt āmakeā me happy, he also knows that he can contribute rather than detract. Iām grateful that the most important thing in our relationship, the thing that drew us together (other than we were attracted in the traditional sense) was that we could talk for hours about anything. We continue to have great communication, for the most part. When I am not doing well, I shut down and āclam up,ā as he says. He is patient with me and we talk when I am ready. Iāll stop gushing now, but this weekend has reaffirmed how important he and our talks are to me and my recovery, and Iām grateful that he is so on board with being a partner in my recovery as well as in other parts of our life together.
- for a wonderful get-together with friends some of whom we havenāt seen for over a year. It was full of laughter, some tears, and a beautiful hike on a lovely day. Iām grateful that my old gal Lupe hung in there as long as she didā¦over 4 miles/6.5 km! She was wiped out afterward and had her happy tongue hanging out, had a blast sniffing all the new smells.
- for today, and that I am sober.
Always grateful for the gratidudes and graditroops and mis amigos de TS.

Iām grateful for waking up this morning (too early!) to all of the lovely messages for my 300 days! I donāt usually like or seek the limelight, but this place is different. Iām so grateful for TS and the Gātroops, I wouldnāt be here withoutācha. 
Iām grateful that though I had a headache (staying up too late!) itās not from a hangover, and it disappeared after drinking an appalling amount of coffee double-fisted with water and doing a zoom yoga classā¦
Iām grateful I can have a slower day today, that I enjoy slower days, and that I have no desire to drink to enjoy time off, deal with stress, celebrate, or any other reason I used to tell myself was a good reason to pour a glassā¦
Iām grateful that shedding season will be over soon and the dog girl will just go back to regular sheddingā¦ 
But Iām grateful for all the hair she sheds because itās just evidence of all the love she shares.
Iām grateful for another day.

Today Iām grateful:
- for a productive first meeting via video chat with my temp sponsor Amy. Pretty well established step 1 done. Grateful for a sober sister stepping up to help me through this, including another AA womenās meeting I can attend virtually with her.
- for a fan-friggin-tastic weekend with my love and some of the most meaningful and sort of breakthrough conversations weāve had in a while. The fact that we finally, it seems, are talking directly as it relates to my addiction, about addiction in general, rather than talking around the issue, if you know what I mean. Bring it out into the light instead of keeping it in the shadowsā¦radical honesty and acceptance on both our parts. Iām grateful for how liberating that can be.
- for waking up rested on a Monday morning with lots of meal prep and planning done so I donāt have to scramble or stress about what to cook. I even wrote the plan for the weekās dinners on the chalk marker schedule stuck to my fridge. Fun!
For you folks on this thread, and all the bright and shiny shares that lift us all up here.

Iām grateful to God I donāt drink.
Iām grateful to God I do not depend on booze.
Iām grateful I finally threw out the 3 mix n match six packs of beer that have been in the house since the Holidays 2019 it was a weird feeling. Like getting rid of all these old friends. I kept them around in case of company or if I wanted to make beer cheese soup. I thought they were probably too old now and today is trash day and weāre going out of town.
So buh bye old friends 
Iām grateful I really donāt drink anymore!!! 
I donāt drink anymore ???
Iām grateful Daisy is on my lap.
Iām grateful my sister got her second jab.
Iām grateful I had a āfuck it!ā Day yesterday that did not include drinking. Who knew you could have a āfuck it!ā Day and not drink?
Iām grateful I donāt have a āfuck it!ā Day hangover today. Those were the worst.
Grateful for yāall gratitroops
I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
