Grateful to be home with my family. Grateful for plans to spend time hiking with my mom and celebrating my beautiful nephews first birthday this weekend. Grateful for you guys.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
Heading into day 4, I am grateful for the the sun and lightness of the day. I am grateful for my job and home and means to take care of myself. In general I am just thankful for life.
I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to stay clean and sober. I’m grateful for my recovery. I’m grateful for my family. I’m grateful for my friends. I’m grateful for TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that I can go to Wayside for all kinds of support. I’m grateful to be able to acknowledge that I feel down and tired today, maybe I’m just overwhelmed. I’m grateful that I can get my butt moving and go for a walk with some music and a coffee and head to Wayside. I’m grateful for this space and trying to use it as best I can and remind myself if all I can do today is stay clean and sober that’s enough. God bless you all. &
p.s. don’t forget to take a moment and just smile and breathe. Ya you!!
I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful to God I can still have fun or even just enjoy my self on a day to day basis, wherever I am, without my booze.
I’m grateful it still feels so freeing and wonderful.
I’m grateful that even though my wife is having cocktails at some of our favorite places, she isn’t making more cocktails at home. And most days sticks to wine. Most importantly I’m fine with that. Fucking all kinds of headaches in a glass
I’m grateful the YMCA is in walking distance and it basically just opened up on a reservation basis. And we will probably have most of the place to ourselves.
I’m grateful my wife wanted to be added on to my membership. This is HUGE!! My wife would never ever go anywhere to work out or ride a peloton or treadmill. Never!
I’m grateful when she said she wanted to sign up I didn’t say anything negative like “sure you do” or “ya right.” Even after all these years I still actively have to practice holding my tongue. Nothing good would have come from me cutting her down in fun. Even after almost 38 years of sarcastic fun and banter back and forth there are many many times we probably should not do that. I’m just grateful I can see it and break a pattern sometimes.
I’m grateful it’s mani pedi day with my daughter.
I’m grateful it’s a DELUXE mani pedis. I want the works. I better bring my own garbage bag for the paraffin treatment
I’m grateful the 3 of us will go out to lunch together.
I’m grateful all my pets are settled in and doing well after the trip.
And, in case you hadn’t noticed, I would be grateful to have Daisy or Benson on my lap but I reckon that doesn’t happen here
I’m grateful for all you dudes and dudettes of gratitude
Everyone is my teacher. Some I seek. Some I subconsciously attract. Often I learn simply by observing others. Some may be completely unaware that I’m learning from them, yet I bow deeply in gratitude.
Some lady named Gloria
On Twitter

Morning gratitude:
I am sober and hungoverfree
I have a bed all for me alone
Today is Friday
I learn each day and make progress incremental steps but over the months and years I can feel it
I haven’t feel lonely in some time, alone is okay but not inside lonely
Grateful for bad memory to get on with life. Memories are fading and my brain is making new ones every day, minute.
Gratitude of the Day - the weekend has arrived and I no longer have to base things around what and when I will drink and be hungover; my dogs and cats who are loving comanions; the birds are chirping and I can truly appreciate and enjoy that innthe morning without the guilt and self loathing that came with binge tue night before; coffee; the opportunity for a new day and a fresh start. Day 20 for me and despite feeling all the feelings, it keeps getting better.
I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful I saw my daughter yesterday, mani pedis and lunch out.
I’m grateful we could talk about recovery. And we couldn’t remember if it was 10 or 12 years since she’s used. How fucking awesome is that?
I’m grateful for the little Cha Spa a block down the road. I went back there for a reflexology massage. 30 minutes feet and calves only. The lady did an amazing job. I got the Happiest Feet
Grateful I’m rewarding myself with this “self care” shit instead of drinking.
I’m grateful I can even write “self care.” It’s hard to explain. I guess I never thought I deserved “self care.” Or it was a sign of weakness.
I’m grateful to be here in Santa Monica.
I’m grateful Minnie came up on the bed this morning for snuggles. And Daisy was on my chest purring. And I got Benson sitting next to me on the couch.
Grateful for the little text exchange with my sister this morning.
Grateful for TS and the Gratidudes.
A grateful heart is a magnet for miracles
Ohhh, now I want a massage. My black roll is not the same. Can’t wait for massage to reopen someday. Cool, you are enjoying your time Eric. I think I was in Santa Monica like 17 years ago or so.
I’m grateful for another day of sobriety, making new friends on here, being able to talk about my addiction, my family, my health, my relationship with God, and music cause it’s made me more mellow and helps me with controlling my emotions. Thanks guys love being here.
I’m grateful for:
- My serenity den
- Warm blankets
- Quiet time/self care
- Counseling
- My partner in life, my loving fiancé, without him I don’t know where I’d be
- My sweet son and amazing step daughters
Today I’m grateful for home office. For a nice fire in the stove because the weather was chilly and rainy. Grateful for the same nice meal as yesterday. Grateful my brain worked today how it should, no sidekicks, no procrastination Grateful for a relaxing massage. Grateful to be sober
I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to stay clean and sober. I’m grateful for my recovery and that it continues to evolve, challenge and surprise me.
