I am grateful that I am alive.
Grateful I have enough food in the fridge. Grateful that most of the times I like what I cook for myself.
Grateful for some nice colleagues I can chat and laugh with. Grateful for laughing.
Grateful I enjoyed my yoga before dinner.
Grateful that Dora and Paula accept that I cut back the wet food and don’t have diarrhea anymore. I really have no clue what happened. But I am more than willing to accept that.
I am grateful for a long weekend ahead although I have no idea what to do.
Grateful I have a heating that is working. I am so happy that I don’t have to feel guilty about complaining what is not working in the apartment bc everything is working here.
I am grateful that Paula and Dora seem to understand when I am not well and come to cuddle more often. I am grateful that they understood that yoga means no playing with anything hanging around Franzi.
And I am happy that I could return my tickets for tonight’s science slam as they changed their policy from 3G to 2G. 3g means that vaccinated, recovered and tested persons have access and 2g only vaccinated and recovered and in exchange you don’t have to wear a mask and keep distance.
I am so great full for this community and the acceptance here.
My new chance at life
Job opportunities
College
My family
Friends
My pets
My new found awareness of the world around me
Being able to go out for fun and not for a fix
This evening I am grateful that when I tell people I have an amazing group of people that I can connect with online I get funny looks and comments like …but you still need…that’s good but…make sure you also…I know all of that and know how special you all are to me.
I am grateful that God has always been there even when I wouldn’t seek her out.
I am grateful that I quit drinking so I could start recovery.
I am grateful that I was here last night to call an ambulance for my roommate because the house manager wouldn’t leave his room to deal with the paramedics.
I am grateful that I am dealing with people every day again and not just hiding from the world.
I am grateful my son is safe and I’m not using his struggles as an excuse to pick up.
I am grateful to learn more about myself each day and accept the things I find out.
I am grateful for rest days from the gym. Tuesdays and Fridays.
I am grateful for my pharmacy delivering my meds to my door when I need refills so I can be lazy on my rest day😁
Good evening all,
I’m grateful to be doing my gratitude list from the far reaches of an elementary school Halloween dance. I’m grateful (I think) that my daughter really wanted ME to take her. I’m grateful that drinking didn’t get in the way of this experience. I’m grateful that she has ditched me to hang out with her friends hahaha! I’m grateful to be sober. I’m grateful for all the good and hard life things people are going through, and sharing. I’m grateful we are all trying.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
Good morning, all.
I’m grateful that it is Saturday today, so I get to sleep in. 7 hours and 50 minutes of sleep will go some way to improving the awful average that I’ve had since going back to work.
Grateful that I could drive my daughter’s friend home at midnight last night after getting back from the cinema. The four of us (my wife, daughter, her friend and I) had a laugh in the car. I understand that it is normal for other people, but being able to drive at midnight on a Friday night never gets old for me. I feel like a grown up.
Grateful for the sun flooding through my window and the beautiful sober weekend stretching out ahead of me. I had trouble filling them at first, but now I devour them.
Grateful for all of your shares. There is so much wisdom in our little village.
Grateful to be 300 days sober today. I can’t quite believe it. It’s like a dream to me.
Have a great day, all.
I’m grateful tonight for the day I had. Part work, part putter. Putting my little home back together after unplanned travel last weekend and quite the workweek. (I echo what others have said. How did I ever do my job hungover?) Cooking a nice dinner and listening to my fave radio programs. Sounds mundane? Deliciously so!
I’m grateful for the longer walk with the dog girl tonight through our trails, even though it was getting dark. Seems like my thoughts can slow down when I’m walking, and just sync with the regular pace of my steps and breath. No snow yet on our forest trails, which is weird, but it will come. (And I’ll be grateful because I love snow. )
I’m grateful to have a project at work that I care deeply about right now. I will give it a lot of attention, because it deserves it - but I’m not in control of the outcome. Which doesn’t really look good even if I do my part well. Grateful to have another “test”. This will be doable without leaning on stemware and corkscrews. Because everything is.
I’m grateful I get that now. There is nothing that justifies, earns, excuses, legitimizes, or “whatevers” a drink. Nothing. Everything in my life, though, deserves sobriety.
Grateful for another day of attending to my sober, joyful, mundanely delicious life.
Grateful for all of you.
Oh happy 300 days! If we were all in Sing-land, I’d say we should meet up at midnight, in our separate cars, and do a sober celebratory convoy! Windows down and tunes cranked!
Congrats, friend. Super proud.
Congratulations Tony! You’ve come a long way, friend, I am so very grateful and happy for you. It was nice to watch you find your sober way and become fully in love with it. So happy for you.
I am grateful that the fog lifted rather early today. I am going to see my friends horse later.
I am very grateful that my neighbours are okay. I just witnessed that Dora went onto their balcony through a hole, the little rat. I rang their bell and he told me he already saw her but she immediately went back when she saw him
I am grateful I am aware of it now.
I am grateful I have some people I call friends. I am glad I didn’t go home this weekend as my mother told me one of her friends is positive with mild symptoms. She was warned by an app. So, I am happy she was silent with guilt tripping me for not coming.
Today I am grateful for a road trip with my son and his gf to my Alma Mater for a football game. I am grateful I can feel driving them around and through tue mountains with no worry of drinking. I am grateful for food in the fridge and pantry, a great car to get us to and fro and responsibly planning and budgeting for this little trip without constant worry of do I have enough. I am grateful for the strength I feel when reminding myself that I am enough, when not comparing myself and looking at the big picture instead of nit picking every little thing I see as wrong or embarrassing or weird. I’m too old to still be developing my self worth, but doing it anyway as I deserve better.
I am grateful for all of you and your shares and openness. Enjoy an amazing Saturday/Sunday!!
I’m grateful to God I don’t drink.
I’m grateful to God I do not depend on booze.
I’m grateful I got my blanket, a fire in the fireplace, and the cat and dog are plugged in on my lap.
I’m grateful to see the dawning light and enjoy the stillness of this morning. It’s usually pretty windy up here but this morning the ponderosas are frozen in sunshine.
I’m grateful to not be in pain this morning.
I’m grateful I’m getting a massage with my crazy massage lady this afternoon.
I’m grateful for comedy and Curb Your Enthusiasm is back on HBO for a new season.
I’m grateful for music and popping in to a music thread on here once an awhile to find a new artist that I like.
I’m grateful I made a new playlist. AGAIN. And I titled it Moxie and it just has mostly new stuff I’ve picked up from TS.
I’m grateful, when I feel addicted to this app, I feel, it’s ok. Im not drinking.
I’m grateful when I feel lonely I can be on here and someone is always around. And I don’t get a crushing hangover the next morning.
I’m grateful for my Courage To Change reading AGAIN this morning. It was about being grateful to be living with an alcoholic. Really? FFS!! I’m not quite there yet don’t know if or when I’ll get there. But then it went on about doing gratitude and maybe even write it down. go figure.
I’m grateful for ALL the addicts in my life, especially my 2 children, and all I’ve learned from them and all I’m learning about myself and that I’m not alone.
I’m grateful for the G-Dudes the more the merrier
When things look blackest, it is within my power to brighten them with the light of understanding and gratitude
