Today I’m grateful for another lazy sunday 
Our christmas tree is gone, the ornaments wait for next christmas. I’m grateful for the beautiful ornaments we have collected over time, make my eyes sparkle with joy!
Grateful for our wood fired stove, it makes the house cozy and warm and I used it to cook today.
Grateful for the big big couch where is plenty room for humans & cats.
Grateful for books and journals. Grateful I take the time to read more than last year.
Grateful to be full, tired and sober.

Grateful for so much today! @Dazercat thanks so much for the sparkly badge, that’s so nice! I’m very grateful for 8 sober nights.
Grateful for the unexpectedly beautiful weather today. Grateful for the ocean and the awesome haul of driftwood hubs and I got today. Planning on using a lot of it to make prop stations for my shop and I’m super grateful for that.
Grateful that my Splendid seems to be enjoying her new pot.
Grateful for the hot tea I’m about to make, the book I’m about to read and the snoring dog beside me.
Grateful for the strength I have to fight through the couple of hardcore cravings I had today and to be still sober and peaceful on my lovely couch.

Happy Sunday night 
I’m grateful for the saying someone posted awhile back, I’m not sure who, “Let go or be dragged”. I’ve been thinking about this the last few days. That all we truly can control are our own emotions. And when I don’t clench so tight with people, traumas, places, memories there is a peace that flows over me. That I’m trusting what fate or the universe or the energy inside me or outside of me- whatever you want to call it has planned for me. Be in this moment I say. I am grateful that I’m handling life and my emotions better. How I’m able to work through things instead of trying to wash my confusion, hurt, pain, stress away with alcohol. Sometimes the answer is that there is none. And that’s okay. That I have to let go and let fate.
I am grateful for the people in my life who love me. I’m grateful I have unconditional love. Both given and received. I’m grateful for love. I’m grateful for my life. I’m grateful for my 104 days of sobriety. That have both flown by and crawled slowly along somehow simultaneously. I’m grateful I am me. I am grateful fate led me here. I’m grateful for you all. You are loved

I am grateful that we got out to the mountains to ski today, even though my anxiety always makes me feel like it’ll be too much work and the kids will loose their minds bc they are cold, tired, scared. I’m grateful that I’ve been sober for six months! And six months on TS, it has really kept me on track. I’m grateful for warming up under a blanket by the fire and definitely grateful for a great sober weekend.

Congratulations on your 6 months!! 
@Callie99 and @Lisa07, if I ever get around to another tattoo, “Let go, or be dragged” is it. Simple, yet challenging. Let the universe work it out.

I’m grateful to God thank you for helping me through another day while remaining clean and sober. I’m grateful for my recovery. I’m grateful for ALL my family, friends,TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful I had a nice long video call with my parents and sister. I’m grateful I got to attend my NA homegroup business meeting followed by our regular fellowship. I’m grateful they asked me to chair, so I did. I’m grateful the meeting went smooth and everyone shared, some real good stuff too, glad I went. I’m grateful I had the day off from work. I’m grateful the Buffalo Bills are playoff bound wooo. I’m grateful I ordered in some pizza, delicious. I’m grateful that stella mentioned a big book thread and eric shared, I see some gratidudes are participating, awesome. I’m grateful that when I mentioned Eric to my Mom(she asked about my coffee mug) she knew I was talking about my gratitude friend from the states. I’m grateful I made my bed and cleaned my room and found a one year clean celebration card that I was given last year from the aforementioned NA group, some of the names that signed remain and some I pray for. I’m grateful for music, humor and laughter. I’m grateful for hope and courage. I’m grateful for the set aside prayer.
God bless you all.

p.s. You are loved. Ya you!!

Struggling to find gratitude these days. Well, maybe not Saturday. That was kind of fun. Sometimes it seems the more I work on myself the more depressed I get about my situation. Which I’m grateful to have and blessed in so many ways.
I’m grateful I been forcing myself to come up with my gratitude list each day, because I know it works for me to start out my day.
Anyway. God gave me something to be grateful for this morning. Im grateful I broke my coffee carafe this morning but only after I had filled my cup with coffee. And I’m grateful it didn’t shatter all over the place. So feeling like the poor, sad old, same old morning me, BAM 
Here’s something to be grateful for.
Im grateful I got off the couch yesterday after football napping feeling bummed and depressed I got my ass walking to the beach. Im grateful after listening to some angry rap hip hop shit and then some sad music to try and make me cry. No trouble there. And watching the sunset. And listening to a fun play list on the way home. I felt much happiness. I’m grateful after the sunset, what’s that twilight? I saw this woman wearing a beautiful white dress walking on the cliffs and her dress was all lit up with lights. Not really Christmas themed. But for some reason she was just skipping through the park as happy as can be and it really cheered me up even more. Maybe she wasn’t happy. I don’t know how she was feeling.
Anyway…… I’m grateful I can find things to cheer me up instead of getting all fucked up on booze.
Im grateful I don’t really get urges to drink. I guess I’m grateful that I’m just learning how to deal with my feelings. I really shouldn’t 
“bad word.” Have anything to be sad about. Im grateful I’m blessed in so many ways.
Im grateful our next move this year is going to be for us! Im grateful it scares the fucking shit out of me. And I’m grateful it will be the first time moving sober. Im grateful we were always blessed to be able to move because of the addicts in our life. Im grateful we made those sacrifices.
Im grateful to prattle on here and wrap this up.
I think my list is shorter when I feel grateful and happy right from the get go.
Happiness is itself a kind of gratitude.”

I’m grateful for another day sober.
I’m grateful that i realise my wife being wicked is part of her grieving process. I’m grateful she’ll be seeing a therapist for it because while i understand she’s grieving I’m not god, i didn’t take her mom away and I’m also not a permanent pissing post.
I’m grateful to be done with all the paperwork for my upcoming surgery, i almost backed out… i just need to get it done, it’s been nagging me pretty bad for the past year.
Reading @Dazercat gratitude post i just wanted to add that most days i come here I’m not all warm, fuzzy and happy… I’m not mad or down most days either… Rarely I’m either of those, mostly I’m just kinda even keel. Coming here keeps me reminded that I’m fortunate even when i don’t feel it. I hope you feel better soon Eric.

Oh, I know this! And I love the beauty of it too. It’s less like the branches are burdened with snow, and more that they welcome and cradle it. At least, to me…
