I am grateful for God working on me
I am grateful to make good decisions
I am grateful my mom can’t stop smiling when we’re together
I am grateful I remember every conversation I’ve had for the last 90 days (first two weeks are a blur)
I am grateful my daughter wants to talk to me
I am grateful that even though my other daughter isn’t always responding I keep reaching out so she knows I care
I am grateful that even feeling uncomfortable is feeling honestly
And as always I am grateful for you
My self-loathing was at an all-time high after my last drunk. I learned that my past does not define who I am today. and my actions in recovery have given me my self-esteem back.
I’m grateful your here!
Feeling really grateful for grounding tools that work. I started feeling really disconnected from myself as the day went on. Fragile, sad, afraid. Grateful I can connect with my emotions even when they’re shitty.
I’m grateful for my dog. Her cuddles and that super soft spot behind her ear. And especially how quickly, and this is probably pretty strange, smelling her paws grounds me. Something about her scent mixed with grass, I instantly lose a little tension.
I reached out & zoomed with a sober friend. Grateful I got past the initial “don’t want to be a bother” crap.
I’m grateful for my partner running their nails along my scalp. My mom used to do this when I was afraid of the dark as a child. Makes me feel safe.
I’m grateful for this space. Before I relapsed I no longer took time to appreciate everything I was thankful for or that sobriety had anything to do with those things.
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful that I made my bed this morning and I believe I will always make my bed in the morning.
I am grateful for TLC meetings, joined from that same bed, in my comfy jammies, with a hot cup of coffee.
I am grateful for a sunshiny day and a Goodwill trip with my kiddo.
I am grateful that we found two brand new happy things that I will wrap for Christmas, which around here we call Thriftmas, because we buy as many things second hand as we can. It makes it fun and requires you to really put the person you’re buying for in the front of your mind.
I am grateful for a roof over my head, clean drinking water, and food in the fridge.
I am grateful for a renewed sense of purpose and trust in myself.
I am grateful for pretty good sleep.
I am grateful for our dogs and chickens. They keep me so entertained.
I am grateful for you.
I need to make this the first part of my day, every day and set my day up right.
I’m grateful i haven’t fucked my sobriety up with my sloppiness.
Welcome Dan.
Nice to see you here.
690 something mornings of gratitude has been working for me.
Check out the first post if you’re willing.
Coffee is always on. Pull up a chair, we got plenty of room for more.
I am grateful to be sober and hangover free.
I am grateful I that will be getting my booster on Friday evening and that I will have the weekend to rest if need be.
I am grateful that I have been taking the next step to address issues in my own recovery which are helping me get to the root of the problem.
I am grateful that there are numerous programs for recovery and that if one way doesn’t work we can simply find a different way. The most important thing is to never give up.
I am grateful for naltrexone.
I am grateful for my family and friends and for the snow outside and the cool crisp air that makes me feel alive.
I also use these as tools. Pop corn toes!!!
I am grateful for my sobriety because without it I would not have this amazing life. Im grateful to be alive and that god gave me a second chance at life. I’m grateful for my family and friends and my 2 sweet dogs.
I’m grateful for this and other threads on TS when I wake up at 3 am! I’m grateful that I had a serious heart to heart text exchange with my Mami and that she feels safe and comfortable saying she feels sad, too. Sad after I leave but also sad for other reasons. I’m grateful for the conversation I had with my husband about why “you are all I need” is problematic and how well he took it after he said that to me and I had to say “I hope not.” I’m grateful that after we talked about it he realized he didn’t mean it and understood why a partner can’t be all you need in life.
I’m grateful that not drinking and doing some recovery work has helped me to learn more about myself and my relationships.
I’m grateful I can try to go back to sleep.
Good morning!
I’m grateful for decent sleep even tho I’m anxious about some work projects.
I’m grateful to wake up without a hangover.
I’m grateful to have hot coffee on this chilly morning.
I’m grateful for this morning ritual of writing to all of you and writing out my check-in and my gratitude. It is a pleasant way to start the day and helps me face the day with hope and determination.
Thank you and I hope you are safe and happy today.
Tonight I am grateful to be heading to bed knowing I will be waking up for the second morning in a row hangover free.
I am also grateful I found AA & this forum.
Good morning!
Im grateful for waking up without a headache.
For this community getting me through day 1 yesterday.
For my cat sleeping on my lap as I drink my coffee.
For a decent job and the ability to work from home.
Here’s to day 2!
I’m grateful to God please help guide me through today and allow me to remain clean and sober. I’m grateful for my recovery. I’m grateful for ALL my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful for a day off from work. I’m grateful for the combination of prayers, daily readings, talking sober gratitude and meditation. I’m grateful when I start my day with all of them it’s usually a pretty good start of the day. I always forget how long it takes to actually do them all though so generally some of them don’t get done at all or not until later in the day or night. I’m grateful my Mom keeps popping up as I write this sending messages. I’m grateful that it’s a new month which shifts some focus onto another of the twelve steps, I for one need those little reminders to switch focus and not stay stuck trying to perfect one step, do your best move on to the next one, grow a bit, come back later hopefully refreshed and focus on the step the next time through. I’m grateful for music, very grateful for music. I’m grateful for humor and laughter.
God bless you all. &
p.s. Don’t ever give up. I believe in you, you’re doing great. Ya you!!
I’m grateful for hot coffee. I’m grateful for walks with Rue. I’m grateful for cozy nights in. I’m grateful for mornings with no hangover. I’m grateful for movement. I’m grateful for music. I’m grateful for 65 days sober. I’m grateful that each one is a gift. I’m grateful for love. I’m grateful I’m here, present, alive
Conrats on your 65 days Caroline, keep moving forward
I’m grateful to see so many people joining in on this thread. Good morning Callie good morning Brian.
I’m grateful Brian has a day off.
I’m grateful I slept on my back almost all night and my back feels pretty pretty good this morning.
I’m grateful I got my screen shut down at 11 last night. It could have been earlier but I always feel the need or maybe it’s just the desire to check in at TS just one more time. But I’m grateful I got a good amount of sleep and that I can be flexible about it.
I’m grateful the Ol Burner beat out Daisy to my lap this morning. It’s been awhile. I’m grateful to watch Daisy try to figure out what to do when the dog is already on my lap. I’m grateful there’s more to cuddle and willingly hug when Benson is on my lap.
I’m grateful for my Guatemalan roast coffee I think it is truly my favorite. And the beans smell so gorgeous.
I’m grateful to God and his coffee beans.
I’m grateful for my early evening walk. 2 in a row this week. I think it’s putting me in a better mood to cook dinner every night. Fuck. I know it is.
I’m grateful the Walgreens are all booked up for 2 weeks here for Covid booster shots and I couldn’t get in. Which means people are getting their booster shots. And I’m grateful for that. I’m grateful I persisted and got us scheduled with the Arizona health department for Saturday evening. Looks like my wife and I have a date for booster shots Saturday evening and then dinner out. Can I show a girl a good time or what?
I’m grateful my sister called me the day after Thanksgiving and we had a nice chat.
I’m grateful the more gratitude I dig up the better I feel. I see Brian up above congratulating Callie on her 65 days. Atta girl @Callie99

Grateful for yoga. Grateful I get myself into practice.
