Happy Sunday 
I’m grateful work was low key today thanks to the 1pm game. Go bucs! 
I’m grateful I made time for breakfast and lunch today at work- not an easy feat for me.
I’m grateful I’m realizing the world does not revolve around me. Not in a negative way but when I think something is very important- I’m consumed with it- I realized today I’m the one blowing it up. My boss mentioned to me yesterday that he was signing me up for a 6 week wine course - I said nothing and came home and freaked out. I actually believed I could loose my job if I said I didn’t want to do it. I worried that I was going to have to tell my boss about my sobriety. I talked to a practical minded human who brought me back down to earth 
. I talked to him today and just told him I didn’t have time for a six week wine class on my plate and wanted to pass. He laughed and said it was meant to be a little gift for me. So yes self the world does not revolve around you . You are not holding it up.
I’m grateful I was chatting with someone and they brought up my ego. That ever sense then I’ve been able to call myself out when I notice it.
I’m grateful for the chilly walk me and Rue took tonight.
I’m grateful I’m going to make dinner and play guitar.
I’m grateful that wine is no longer the first thing on my mind when I get home from work.
I’m grateful that the bottle that I used to buy on my way home is not almost empty on my counter. I’m grateful that I don’t have an internal argument with myself that I didn’t eat and had a stressful day so maybe I could open a second.
I’m grateful that I don’t wake up on my couch to a half empty bottle of wine on my coffee table.
I’m grateful that I haven’t had a hangover in 111 days. I’m coming up on my four months and it almost seems crazy that I thought not drinking would just mean I wouldn’t drink anymore. The amount of changes I have made within myself make me the most proud. My stress levels, anxiety, guilt, pain, isolation, hurting myself has all started melting away. I feel more peaceful then I think I ever have.
I’m grateful I don’t remember the last time I had a panic attack.
I’m grateful

I am grateful for the text message I received today from a newcomer. I am grateful she was asking questions and it sounds like she’s in a good mindset for recovery.
I am grateful for technology and how it allowed our step group to still meet today via FaceTime.
I am grateful for self composure and having the strength to “keep in my lane” when a member walked into the meeting 1/2 way through inappropriately masked.
I am grateful that I have become very aware I have no control over people, places and things therefore all I could do was remove myself as soon as the meeting ended.
I am grateful that even though the dumplings “ruined” the chicken stew everyone still ate it. Perfect is boring anyways right Brian?
I am grateful for the giggle we had because I had told my daughter I was setting the bar low making stew for said guest as her first meal here. I definitely didn’t mean to drop the fucking bar. 
I am grateful to have a new sponsee and to be spending lots of time working on recovery with her.
I am grateful to hear from my 17 yr old sponsee from months ago once in awhile. She will send me an “I love you” or an “I miss you.” And I say it right back because it’s the truth. I don’t know if she is clean today but I hope and pray that she is and that if she isn’t she can find her way back into the rooms.

I’m grateful that my friend had his one year cake tonight and asked me to chair the meeting. I’m grateful that I found a speaker to share at next Sundays meeting for my two year cake. I’m grateful that I felt better after the meeting as I was dragging today. I’m grateful for a nice chat with my sister this afternoon, she is so stressed though, I wish I knew how to help more. I’m grateful that I caught this photo just now fuck ya!!!
That photo didn’t turn out well Lol officially two years clean 
I’m grateful for this thread. I’m grateful for music. I’m grateful for creativity and compassion. I’m grateful for things not being boring and perect @Its_me_Stella

I’m grateful to see Brian’s 2 years up above. What an inspiration it is to read his gratefulness each day. I’m grateful for those of you who’ve been here much longer than me. Your shares help me to understand that much of what I’m going through in these early months is normal, and I’m not going crazy. 
I’m grateful for the Full Wolf Moon (99.8 is just about there 
). I’m grateful for the rec room window upstairs that frames it perfectly. I’m grateful for my over-stuffed chair and warm chunky throw where I sit and watch the wonder of it moving down the night sky. I’m grateful I live in a Dark Sky Compliant area. I’d never seen the moon and stars, the Milky Way and Andromeda, so clearly before being here. I’m grateful for the reverence I feel for the universe.
I’m grateful that I can feel the light within me again. The alcohol kept it at barely a flicker, but I can feel the warmth of it flowing through me. It feels like I’m remembering something very important that I’d forgotten. I’m returning to myself and I have missed me.
I’m grateful for this alone time when I wake before daybreak. I’m grateful for another day that I won’t drink.

I’m grateful for some good sleep but also for the chuckle my partner and I got when I woke myself up talking at full volume about food and cooking. And that I kept talking as my brain was waking up because I felt the need to finish my thought. Silly brain! I’m grateful I am realizing that drinking caffeine later in the afternoon disrupts my sleep and makes me more likely to talk in my sleep - while amusing, I’d rather sleep through the night! I’m grateful that I can change my routine and try cutting off caffeine by 3 pm instead of my usual 5 pm.
I’m grateful we are both feeling well and hopefully are COVID free after that scare last week. We will wait 10 days before breaking our self imposed quarantine. I don’t care what the recommendations are now, it’s important to me to continue being abundantly cautious, that’s just me and I’m grateful I feel that way and my partner does, too. I’m grateful that I have everything I need at home and if we do need something, my membership at the grocery store means free delivery. I’m grateful there is an option to tip the delivery drivers.
I’m grateful for mornings with my partner and making plans for the week together, including some new fitness goals together. We do a bit of yoga, planks, and floor work in the mornings and it’s a wonderful time to support each other in our shared goals. I’m grateful we are getting back to these things that we used to do regularly years ago.
I’m grateful for Brian @I.cant.We.can and his remarkable 2 years clean and sober! Way to work your recovery, amigo! I love reading every single one of your posts, which I’ve done since the beginning (even when I’m not actively posting). You’re so authentically you and I’m grateful you share with us here. Can’t wait to hear about your milestone meeting.
Always grateful for my amigos here.

Good morning Gratidudes!
I am always grateful when I see someone reach a milestone, like @I.cant.We.can did this morning. Congrats on 2 years Brian 
It gives me hope that I will also be able to achieve this milestone.
I am grateful to be sober this morning. I had unsettling dreams that made me question whether or not I had drank last night or not. I answer was NOT. Gratefully so.
I am grateful for a calm and relaxing (mostly) weekend.
I am grateful my old body is holding up to the 5K training I’ve been doing. It feels good to be running again. I feel badass!

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I am healthy, more or less.
I am grateful I have enough food, fresh water, heating, social secutity, a good health care system. Everything we take for granted. it is not, it is the exception.
I am gratful Covid doesn’t scare me. I mean, I do what has to be done. These restrictions are nothing against my own prison. I am still living in a prison somehow, now I can see it that it is me who built it and has to tear it down.
I am grateful for my doc who prescribed me the correct creme for my problem and months of heavy itching like hell are gone in literally instantaneously. I am so happy.
I am grateful that aparently iodine is helping my mood aka I had a deficency.
I am grateful for my training app which I can modulate according to f** PMS and instead of doing just nothing do what is good for me.
I am grateful Yoga teaches me about my ‘symmetry’
