I’m grateful today for a sober day with no hangover; a pretty good night of sleep; food in the fridge with a plan and energy to continue minimizing dining out; a little rain this morning to cool things off; birds, screen porch, coffee and fans; basketball goal that keeps my son moving and engaged throughout the day when there isn’t a lot else to do; a simpler life and mindset with a fraction of the stress I used to carry. Always grateful for TS and all of you!! Enjoy the day to the fullest.

Good morning all,
Today I’m grateful for a plan to get up in the mountains with both my kids and my mom. A hike, and a picnic in some much cooler weather sounds just amazing. I’m grateful I finally got brave and scheduled to have LASIK done on my eyes on Friday. I’m grateful I have a job that makes it possible to do this financially. I’m also very grateful for time off of this job! I’m grateful for the time we spent in the book store yesterday. I’m grateful the kids love reading too, and they made the sales clerk laugh when they said they didn’t need a bag- they were just gonna start reading in the car. Thanks @Dazercat for the link to the book thread- another one to add to the somewhat small collection that I check daily.
I’m grateful for the calm, and general feeling of love and friendship on this thread. I’m grateful for all of you guys. Like @I.cant.We.can said- you are frickin awesome!
Everyone have a wonderful day

I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful I got Benson on my lap.
I’m grateful to be home.
I’m grateful for my nice big shower and the soft water. Plenty of room to move around and sudsy.
I’m grateful for clear skies and clean air.
I’m grateful to be able to listen to the audio version of AA on my walks on the trails.
I’m grateful my dogs seem so happy to be home.
I’m grateful I get to drive my M3 again with the top down out in the country without sitting in a ton of traffic.
I’m grateful when someone reaches their year milestone. M 
And I’m very sad when people relapse. I’m grateful I feel like we are all in this together. When one of us succeeds we all succeed. When one of us fucks up we all feel the hurt and pain and we are all there to help get them back on track.
I’m grateful that there’s a shit ton of things to do around here and I even just got a jury notice. But I’ll handle it all. One thing at a time. One day at a time. I’m grateful I’m learning I can’t do everything all at once anymore. Ya, I use to be able to do everything all at once in a previous life 
Back when I was in control of everything 
. NOT!
All right. What times the party and what thread does it start on? 
Be gentle with yourself, you are meeting parts of yourself you’ve been at war with. Don’t beat yourself up over situations you can’t control. Make peace with yourself and set yourself free from the past.
Grateful addicts in recovery ❤️🩹

Good morning friends.
I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday to to stay clean and sober.
I’m grateful for my recovery and that if I work it, life is pretty good. I’m grateful for my family, friends TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that I slept really good. I’m grateful to be on the porch with my coffee and laptop(cellphones dead) doing gratitude, daily prayers and readings. I’m grateful the birds are enjoying the fact that one of my housemates filled a feeder. I’m grateful when I do my gratitude on the porch I don’t need accompanying music. I’m grateful that it is game night and also my day to cook chicken and everything. I’m grateful for the shade because its already hot today. I’m grateful to be working through the steps again and doing my best to help my sponsees do the same. I’m grateful that I can come on here anytime and that I can afford enough data on my phone(when its charged that is) to connect where-ever I am. I’m grateful for humour and excersise. I’m grateful that @Sunflower1 mentioned me today and it got me on this thread nice and early. I’m grateful for @eph-M-eral and I hope your sober vacation coupled with a big milestone is everything you want it to be. I’m grateful for Trevor and Andy my close friends who are still suffering, keep coming back gentleman, I know you won’t read this but it isn’t for you.
God, grant me the serenity to ACCEPT the things I cannot change, COURAGE to change the things I can and WISDOM to know the difference. Amen
God bless you all.

p.s. One day at a time is enough, you can do this, I believe in you. Ya you!!

There she is! Great morning to ya! And a huge congratulations on your one year milestone. We all know you are certainly worth it.
There should be enough cake here to get you through your 5 freaking hours of zoom calls. And you’ll do it sober. And you’ll still be sober long after those zoom call are over.
Lots of love my friend.

This morning I feel grateful for my change in expectations of myself. I have accepted that taking care of my household, feeding us / food prepping and getting a walk in or some sort of exercise before I start work in the afternoon can be enough. And doing so at my own pace and enjoying it is even better. I believed that doing 250 things each day and always having plans to meet a friend or do a class would make my life fuller and I’d feel better about myself. But that’s not the way. It helped during a couple periods of serious circumstantial depression but is not sustainable. I also think I believed that would appear to others as if I am ok and doing just fine or even have some “great life,” that all the “efforting” would show the outside world something very different than what is on the inside. I’m learning that a) I really need to focus on the very basics especially in early sobriety, b) a very simple life is very fulfilling to me, and c) no one gives a shit how much “efforting” I really do and probably got tired of hearing about it and d) anyone who truly cares about me probably just wants to see me at peace and contented. I am grateful for learning this about my self and for TS and the gratidudes for allowing me to share. I hooe today is a peaceful one for all of you.

I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to remain clean and sober. I’m grateful for my recovery and continue to try and learn from it. I’m grateful for my family and friends and all you gratidudes. I’m grateful for sleep and want to go back to sleep, I’m worried I’m burning out as I have been tired alot lately. I’m grateful I got to be part of the celebration for stella and M, that was fun, I like cake, you adorable ladies deserve it. I’m grateful that I get to go to the treatment center and just hang out whenever I want, not everyone gets that opprtunity for fellowship with people trying to recover and some free food and coffee is a bonus. I’m grateful that I haven’t given up because God knows I think about it, I believe it happens to us all, its only a matter of do you share it, work through it, or do it. I’m grateful that I have an AA meeting tonight. I’m grateful I get to go use the new Bbq today for dinner of pork chops and some type of potatoes and veggies I haven’t decided yet. I’m grateful for the birds singing and the excersise I’ll get soon on my 3km walk or bike. I’m grateful for music and often the memories that accompany a tune.
God bless you all. &
p.s. You are doing great. Ya you!!
