I think content is one of my most favorite words. The feeling of peaceful happiness… 
I’m glad you’re happy. You deserve it. And some chocolate, too.

That sounds beyond hurtful. 
I’m so sorry you went thru that. Is the boyfriend now an ex-boyfriend?

I am grateful for making a new sober friend at the gym. Making friends to fill the gaps left from the drinking buddies adiosing out of my life has been a challenge. This was an unexpected serendipity today.
I’m grateful for this awesome community and the enlightment they continually share with me.
I’m grateful for the warmth and security of my home in the midst of some nasty winter weather.

I will always be a friend to him. I’m mature enough to know what is and what isn’t without bombing up the guy then hating myself later for it.
Im accepting where he is in life and his choices and he, is also accepting mine.
I hope to remain a stable source of good, honesty, integrity and kindness with soundness and unafraid to tell him how I see things without belittling his character or choices.
We have a thick history for the two years we’ve known each other. And I wouldn’t change it.
There are times and seasons for everything under the sun.
I love him right where he is at . . . From a distance. 
If he wants to see me, the he’d make the efforts to see me.
And until he apologizes like any good man would, then I will not be asking him to spend time with me.
I will, however, continue to give him legit work leads and send him encouragement.
Thanks for asking

Today I’m grateful it’s a holiday in Austria. Like a second sunday. I like this time between the years from 24.12 until 6.1. I’m grateful I deliberately lessen down all my activities during this time, it’s a gift to have 2 planned slow weeks.
Grateful my husband built together the desk and chair we bought yesterday. Grateful he asked me to help. That was nice.
Absolutely grateful they repeated the New Year’s Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra on TV today. Saw it on the 1st, enjoyed it again with my husband together today.

Good evening, all.
Grateful to be sober and clearheaded today. We are traveling back in a few hours. A fuzzy head and (more) anxiety is the last thing I need.
Grateful for 6 negative Covid tests. Hurdle one completed.
Feeling extremely stressed today, but grateful that I can use a few of the strategies that I’ve picked up along the way. This too shall pass.
My head is racing and I’m finding it hard to focus. This is how it is when we travel. We chose this life, and I’m grateful for it - but these times are the worst of times. Grateful that I can play this tape forward and see that in about 28 hours I’ll be back in my own bed.
Turns out I needed somewhere to vent. Grateful I have this place.
Take care, all.

Safe travels Tony, with as little added stress as possible. I am so glad that you are not doing this hung over, wanting for a drink, drunk etc.
Life can be hard enough the way that it is without adding all that onto it, to complicate it and make it worse. We need to be our best and our strongest, for our own selves and for those we love.
That ( alcohol ) would really make it overwhelming. I’m so proud of you and I know we will all be happy when you all are at your home and in your own beds.

I am grateful to be closing my eyes on another sober night.
I am grateful to have been asked to chair a homegroup members 1 yr cake tonight.
I am grateful that even though “the chair dun share” I spoke up and let him know how grateful I am for him. How his respectful nature has helped me more than he could ever imagine. He has helped me learn to be vulnerable infront of men and I really feel blessed we are homegroup members.
I am grateful for the men and women in recovery who take recovery seriously and are showing up for all the right reasons.
I am grateful for my parents and the early morning text from mom, " water is on to boil " which alerted me that my power must be out.
I am grateful that they have a gas stove and that we both have wood burning stoves to keep our houses warm.
I am grateful that the power was only out for half of the day and that school is flexible online. What can’t be done today will get done another time.
I am grateful that I still have 3 dogs for me to kiss and cuddle. Having each other makes the loss easier on them as well.
I am grateful that my massive order of literature came all at once and I am excited to dig into it.
I am grateful for my crystals, for all the energy and beauty they bring to my life.
I am grateful for the reminder that the way we use words is very powerful. I am rethinking how I speak about food.
You know… I might go off on a tangent here. I often feel like I have these huge epiphanies, I come to all these realizations, I have these “aha!” moments where everything makes sense then I forget. I forget and I just go off track into old behaviors, thinking old thought patterns until I have the same fricken realization again. I can’t even say to myself “wow when are you going to get this?” Because I got it a long time ago. It’s more along the line " When you going to hang onto it?"
This shit with food and thinking of it as energy instead of calories… I already thought about this. I had this great idea a long time ago I probably even posted about it. But I just can’t follow through with these new behaviors or new thoughts for a long period of time. I forget…
Anyways that’s my rant I am grateful that I can change the title to add “… and rant thread” if we get the votes.
Grateful to get that off my chest and not to feel like a fraud.
Grateful for my life today and that you are all a part of that.
