Tonight? I’m grateful that my day was a good one, and that it was full and busy (not as typical for a Sunday) and even though my gratitude list in the morning didn’t get done, I was okay with it.
I’m super grateful to have read Dazercat’s post early in the morning and somehow, I could picture the road trip as a movie. Now playing in a theatre near you! And it made me laugh.
I’m grateful this thread and all of you - and the wellbeing of our furry friends too! - have a place in my day, and my .

Does it ever feel good to get to my morning gratitude in the morning! Grateful for that alone…
I’m grateful that I feel good about the week ahead, whatever it may hold and however my plans may change, whether of my making or not…
…for the cup of delicious coffee beside me, and what looks to be a sunny day outside…
…for what I accomplished this weekend, and feeling like my home life and desk/paperwork life are getting in order. I always kept up the appearances!, but underneath the surface? Gak. To hell with appearances, things are now in order order. Getting there, anyway.
…that I have good - no, amazing - memories to recall when I feel sad or blue about people who’ve passed on and whom I miss dearly…
…that I have lots to look forward to in the days and weeks to come, this summer, even just little things around home and garden and town and trails…
…for being sober so that I have so many things to look forward to (other than wine o’clock) and that I actually enjoy doing them because I am sober. For this thread and all of you fine gratipals, and all the support on TS and outside it too - to be and stay sober, to recover a beautiful life, a life worth throwing my whole M-self into, wholeheartedly.
I’m grateful for another day.

I understand this. Heavy-duty but compostable. It’s a tall order for a poop bag!

Good morning! And if I haven’t already said it?
I’m so grateful that you and wifey and all the pets made it to Santa Monica safely!
I’m super grateful that you shared the journey with all of us - I can just hear the day-after-drive pet snores and picture the kicking up the grass! And smell the roses and jasmine too.
I’m grateful that you’re grateful to be there sober.
To use one of my Dad’s fave expressions? Sobriety’s just the cat’s ass.

Me too, my sponsor writes peoples recovery dates on the days in pencil, I thought that was a neat way to remember peoples clean days so thats what I started doing too. It is an awesome little book; and now it is becoming packed full of even more awesomeness.

Good morning family.
Today I am grateful that my mom offered to come and help me deep clean my house. I am grateful for yesterday. I am grateful that it is raining today do my new sunflower can settle in. I am grateful for the womens meeting tonight that I am going to try very hard to get home for. And I am grateful for the fellowship of NA and its members because they show me that its possible to live a life free from the binds of addiction. I am grateful for the serenity I find at the ocean and I am grateful that Nugget finds peace there too. I am grateful that the appointment for her biopsy is approaching and i will soon have answers to all my questions.

Sobriety is serious business. But that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun.

Today I am grateful for human emotion and compassion. For the first time , ever, that i know of or seen, for the first time ever today someone cried for me. My new support worker shed tears as I talked about things with me. As I teared up myself as a natural reaction when bringing up difficult past issues, the support worker shed actual tears for me whilst listening to Me… This is a life first for me. Experiencing external human emotions this way… Not even my own mother or father shed a compassionate tear for me that I seen in my life… So today I am grateful for the experience of human compassion
