Today I am grateful for:
- getting my butt off of the sofa today and being productive with my Sunday. This is often difficult
- progressing with decorating the hallway, despite the heat.
- having a healthy dinner with lots of greens
- managing to finish the day with a long (very sweaty) walk.
- ice cold filtered water.
- an early night with my book and my gratitude list.
- feeling more centered and like I finally know which direction I want to go in again.
Happy sober Sunday everyone

I’m grateful to be sober. I’m grateful I can tend to difficult emotions instead of run from them, even when I feel triggered by news I didn’t want to get. I found out today a dear person in my life, my past - an ex-boyfriend, is very, very sick. And it triggered a whole bunch of things in me, about losing people to death, about who I was then in the relationship and am now, about seeing all these people again, all kinds of things. But like @I.cant.We.can said 
I’m grateful I can be there for him and others, and that I will not let this challenge my sobriety. I’m grateful I’m learning I have to take care of myself first or I’m no good to anyone.
I’m grateful to be going to bed early.

Today I am grateful for a morning to catch up around the house after a great night of sleep and to feel good without a hangover to do what needs to be done instead of feeling groggy and tired. I am grateful for friends and for my cats and dogs. I am grateful to have been able to go to a concert last night knowing I will drive myself home safely with no risk of hurting others or myself. I am grateful to have enjoyed the concert woth no desire for alcohol even though most around me were pouring drinks and smelled of it. It was awesome to really enjoy the music “as is” and not feel like I needed to be altered to love it. I grateful for TS and y’all (yup y’all) and reading about everyone’s sober living–it helps so much.

Good morning all,
I’m up way to early for work today, but I’m grateful that I get some quiet time to read through TS. I’m grateful for the beautiful shades of blue and grey as the sun comes up here. More clouds this morning, but I don’t think they’ll last. I’m grateful I packed a good lunch and snacks so I won’t get hangry today. I’m grateful that my kids are feeling better from the colds they have had- they aren’t babies anymore, but I still worry about them. I’m grateful that @M-be-free49 is facing her feelings without alcohol, and I’m sorry for your ex. I’m grateful that in my head, I am already planning an evening of bubble water and hot tea, and a couple chapters from the cheesy romance novel that I am reading. No need for wine after a long day.
Everyone have a wonderful day

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 family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that I slept well, having a fan in my room and its white noise helps my sleep so much. I’m grateful for music, excersise and humor, I combine those because I imagine sometimes if you saw me exercising it’s hilarious. I’m grateful that I can do my best to be there to help and support others and let the rest go. I’m grateful for the same thing @anon74766472 mentioned regarding how calming it can be to write out my stuff.
God bless you all.

p.s. You are doing great, keep it up. Ya you!!

I’m grateful I’m making room for spending time on TS tonight. Taking the time to just browse around. Seeing lots of new members joining in the good fight to live a better life, a sober life. Grateful to see old and new members helping and supporting each other. Grateful to see serious threads and lighter ones, reminding me that sobriety can be both a struggle and a joy.
I’m grateful that being here helps me reflect on last week when I went camping with a group of old friends, on the campsite in Belgium where we used to go for a big rock festival. Where back in the day all of us drank like hell. Where I used to do all sort of drugs as well. Grateful to my friends who still drank loads on this occasion, my friends helping me think about my own former use. Grateful I’ve come to realize and understand through being both there and here at TS, that for most of them this is an annual event, a release from everyday life to which they return after letting loose for a week or so. Grateful I realize they are not addicts and I actually am one, that I can’t live like that, that actually I’m glad I can’t live like that because I don’t want to. Grateful I could be there and see a group of drunks being drunk at night and not crave -well not too bad anyway- or be triggered too much. Grateful that during the daytime I had fun with my friends before they started drinking. And in a strange way grateful that the rains came that caused so much havoc but which made me and my bestie break up camp two days early and head home because actually I had my lesson learned after five days.
And I am always enormously grateful to you all, you who make this all possible, especially you here on this thread who are some of my nearest and dearest on TS. Grateful I can come here and share some of my gratefulness, even though I don’t share here every day or even every week, as I feel still bound and obliged to the daily check in thread that feels like home to me. And I’m using my time for other things too, on this site as moderator and off this site as moderator of my own life. Please know I love you all. All forever in my all of you.

I’m grateful today was better.
I’m grateful I didn’t drink yesterday or any of the last 385 days.
I’m grateful for all of you, for this calm and grounding thread, for @Mno’s post that put words to so much I would if I could. I wanted to post on the check in thread tonight, like I have most nights for the last year, but I don’t have a lot of words or energy today. Some days our tears say everything we need to, right?
I’m still grateful for today, for this life, to still learn about myself, and for never losing a sense of wonder.

I’m grateful it’s morning now, a new day ahead.
I’m grateful for the overcast skies, the cooler temps - like an invitation somehow to hunker in a bit more and tend to all things inward…
I’m grateful I can feel my emotions now and not thinking I’m taking care of them by trying to selectively numb them…
I’m grateful I can catch old thinking patterns that led me to numb… and turn them around pretty quickly.
I’m grateful for the little sanctuary of my patio garden, for my wee home, that it’s comfortable to live and work in, a safe harbour in life’s storms.
I’m grateful my second cup of coffee is about to be made in 5 mins. 
I’m grateful for another day.

I’m grateful for the warmth of the sun and Daisy on my lap.
I’m grateful I know why I feel like crap this morning and hopefully I can over come it.
I’m grateful it’s not a drunk hangover. But replacing food for booze to soothe my feelings…….???
I’m better than that.
I’m grateful I know I need to work on that.
I’m grateful I got in a nice workout yesterday a good balance so I was not exhausted and had to take a nap after.
I’m grateful I listened to my body.
I’m grateful I scheduled someone to show me how to use the new workout machines at the fitness center today.
I’m grateful I started the form on line for food and drugs for my pets for when they stay at the kennel. It’s kind of overwhelming but OPAAT “one pet at a time.” I’ll do another pet today.
I’m grateful I’m not getting too frustrated filling out the online form and learning how to navigate it. Just do a little at a time.
I’m grateful for how much my pets love me and how much I love them. They’re worth it
I’m even grateful when Mavy comes in bed early in the morning and lays right on my neck. He’s always right. It’s time to get up.
I’m grateful for the rain again yesterday.
I’m grateful for Sally Fields, Shirley MacLaine, and Meryl Streep. Been watching some of their movies lately and they are the best actors ever. It’s such a nice escape watching some of their movies.
Grateful for Gratidudes 
Don’t think about what might go wrong,
Think about what could go right.
