I second that, @I.cant.We.can… yer coffee’s getting cold, but no pressure! We’ll make you a fresh cup whenever you’re free to pop in.
While we’re on the topic, I hope all is well in @Frandango’s world and she’s just busy filling her great big grateful heart on other threads!

I’m so grateful for this nugget. She is a delight and I am so lucky to be her Tía. I’m grateful that my brother and sis-in-law are my besties and we are starting to talk about a 5 year plan to live closer to each other (or even in the same town, gasp!).
I’m grateful for the heart healing time I am having on this trip. I spoke to my husband Eric today and he says that being away from my family has put a dark cloud on my spirit. Even when I’ve been doing better, he says it’s always been there, sober or not. I’m so grateful he told me to stay as long as I want to and come back down as often as I need. I feel the darkness dissipating, and for that I am so grateful.

Nothing like little ones to boost your spirits. So glad Eric knows what you need and is so supportive.

I’m grateful to God for his continuous love. I’m grateful for my recovery and that I continue to fight for it and it for me. I’m grateful for all my family and that Mom and Dad are coming for a visit on Monday. I’m grateful that my friends and housemates are being supportive. I’m grateful that I contacted the treatment center about there behaviour and action is being taken to remedy the situation. I’m grateful that the Toronto Maple Leafs just sent the hockey game to overtime. I’m grateful that even that even though I’m still stressed and tired I got out of the house to cook attend meetings and excersise. I’m grateful that my fellow gratidudes reached out. I wish I hadn’t broke my streak of posting everyday however I’m grateful I’m still clean and sober because I was tempted to go check my bank balance and yada yada. I’m grateful that I chose to stop, breathe and recite the serenity prayer.
God bless you all. &
p.s. Never give up, I believe in you. Ya you!!

Today I am grateful for a weekend with minimal plans and schedules…some time to just BE. I am grateful for my son and his wonderful attitude on life. I am grateful for the chirping birds that add a beautiful new song to every day. I am grateful for my 3 closest friends for connecting almost every day. I am grateful my knee is feeling better allowing me to be more physically active. As always, I am grateful for TS and all of the inspiring people using it!!

I’m grateful it - just like that - feels like summer here now. Leaves out, hot (by my standards!) on the morning walk already!, birds chirping and simply summer.
I’m grateful for the age and stage and place in life that I am - unapologetically grateful!
I’m grateful for my little home, in this small city that my pals from the big city can’t figure out why I love, and that I’m sober. I’m grateful I don’t try to explain or justify or defend or apologize for any of it anymore. Take it or leave it! This is me.
I’m grateful we have good grocery stores here. I admit I look forward to grocery shopping - and in these strangest of years (pandemica soberina - made it sound latin), have treated myself to pretty amazing groceries. I’m grateful I can fill my frig today with good healthy fresh things to eat - and an array of selzter waters too. (Recent fave: small cans of sparkling evian - grapefruit basil!)
I’m grateful for the mix of things today to do - some of it adultish, and lots of it restful and fun to get ready for another full week. Way better than heading into Monday morning with a hangover.
Grateful, as always, for all of you gratidudes and troops. Grateful we share this place and time in our lives.
I’m grateful for another day.

Good evening all,
Grateful for these days off. Getting lots done around the house ( including lounging around watching movies). Grateful for all of the different people and points of view on here. Sometimes it overwhelms but, but there is also a lot of food for thought. Grateful that my kids tried a cycle/spin workout and liked it! Grateful for you guys.
Everyone have a wonderful evening

So grateful I can hardly stand it! 🥲 Lots of happy tears over here. I’m grateful I stayed up till 2 am talking with my hermano and SIL about all sorts of life things. It feels good to reconnect and just be together. I’m grateful my brother requested we video chat with my husband (they were actually friends first before I met Eric) and we all had a good laugh together. I’m grateful for the long conversation alone with my SIL where she could let off some steam about her family drama and I could help validate her feelings and thoughts. How such a pleasant, balanced, thoughtful human came out of that family…I’ll never know. I’m grateful we committed to keeping in better touch and agreed that during the pandemic it felt difficult to reach out to each other because it was almost a reminder of how painful it’s been to be apart. Now that we can be together again, we can release those painful feelings and just be there for each other. I’m grateful for the gorgeous weather today and the nap I was able to take while baby napped, too. I’m grateful that the carnitas tacos I prepared for my Mami’s birthday lunch went over so well! And I’m grateful to be sober and be living life to the fullest right now. The only way this could be better is if Eric and Miss Lupe were here, too. We’ll be back together all of us in August, though! Grateful for you all, as always.

Gotta share before I tuck in: I’m grateful for cantaloupe. Ripe, juicy, cantaloupe-y cantaloupe. Not that stuff served up in costco fruit trays in winter, you know… that tastes like balsa wood.
Give me cantaloupe after gardening over an afternoon cocktail any day…!
