Grateful you checked in Dan. So happy you are doing well. Take it easy now. Don’t you even be going near a gym.
Glad you’re ok buddy.
I woke in the middle of the night in significant pain, I’m grateful to be alive and feel pain. I’m grateful for the ability to take this pain and bear it. I’m unwilling to risk taking anymore of narcotics prescribed even though i feel it would most likely be a non issue. I feel can’t always trust my brain, I’m grateful to know that i can’t always trust my brain. I’m grateful for you all, and this place to come.
Good morning beautiful people! I’m grateful for this day and every moment that comes with it. I’m grateful for the opportunity to love myself and others. I’m grateful for this overflowing positive energy that I can pass on to people passing by. I’m grateful for my home,warm clothes, food to nourish, and transportation to get to and from. I’m grateful for the smallest things and the greatest! I’m grateful for prosperity and success in believing I’m worth it. Have a most wonderful blessed day! #youdonthavetobegreattostartbutyouhavetostarttobegreat!
I’m grateful to God I’m sober and hangover free and the slight headache I have is not from drinking last night and hopefully my wonderful espresso roast will chase my little headache away. Or more water.
I’m grateful I can take Advil if needed. I’m grateful I don’t have to worry about booze and Advil affecting my liver values. If I take Advil responsibly I hope I’ll be ok. I’m grateful I don’t take Advil every night for hangover prevention anymore.
I’m grateful the Ol Burner is on my lap.
I’m grateful to be looking over at the old girl lying in front of the fireplace listening to her snores.
I’m grateful I read about “Just For Today.” I’ve always applied it just to not drinking. Like just for today I won’t drink. But I can practice that with all the shit I got going on, trying to get out of here on Saturday. I’m grateful I know what I got to get done today. I’m grateful one of those things will be making time for my sunset beach walk.
I’m grateful for manis and pedis and that I treated myself to one yesterday. I even got the shiny buff I’m grateful for the 30 minute foot reflexology massage immediately after. I always feel like I’m tripping and out of my body when they work over my feet. I’m going to miss that the most.
I’m grateful for the chat my wife and I had yesterday. She thinks she’s the enemy and that you all must think she’s the enemy. I told her we are all our own worst enemy and how I try to make my recovery about me and not her. And I’m grateful I told her, and I accept half of the responsibility if not more, for the 38 years out of 40 we were drinking together. It was our life. It is our life. I’m grateful we got fucken dialogue man 🥲
I’m grateful I got the smartest daughter in the world. She told my wife. “Mom you’re never going
to un-live the day her children surprised her with that intervention last year.” And my wife acknowledged that yesterday. But she is also not ready to stop drinking today.
I’m grateful 40 years ago January I met this beautiful girl (I loved her cute bangs) that became my wife for better or for worse. And in sickness and in health. Until death do us part. 🥲
I’m grateful for hope.
I’m grateful for tissues.
I’m grateful I can share from my heart with y’all.
Jump-start Your Day With Gratitude
It’s the title of a book.
Frankly, I don’t think I need to read that one
I love how you hold your wife in high regard, through all the differences and issues.
I am grateful my wife stuck with me, she obviously didn’t have to. She is my biggest and loudest cheerleader!! Her love and friendship will get me/us through this!!
I’m grateful I have finally made this decision and can’t wait to see what the next 20 yrs of marriage holds. The 1st 20 was amazing, and now only getting better.
I’m grateful for my kids. They don’t know dad has quit drinking yet, I wanted to wait until I made it 30 days before I made yet another empty promise. Tomorrow is the day!!!
I’m grateful I found this community to get shit out of my head and help my mind relax.
I’m grateful for a rather busy and productive day. I’m grateful to have kept my routines this morning and that while doing exercises with my partner we continued our conversation about his relationship with alcohol. I’m grateful I actually started it off by expressing gratitude for him being communicative about his thoughts around it and that it made him feel good to hear that. I said I am happy to support and listen to his thoughts and would offer more input only if he wanted it, which he welcomed and we had a good chat that felt like progress. I’m grateful we have always and continue to be good listeners and communicators, which has sometimes included respecting each other’s space and knowing how to ask for space, or tabling discussions to a future time, as well. Sometimes it’s just not the right time to talk but it’s important to acknowledge that the time will have to come and suggest when that might be.
I’m grateful for texts with my girlfriends, plans for zoom chats and that I have strong relationships with a few women in my life. I used to struggle to find friendships that felt genuine with other women and I am so grateful to have found a few that have endured years, distance, and life changes. I’m grateful for my Mami who set an example of strong bonds with women through the relationship she has with her sisters.
I’m always grateful for my amigos here
Isn’t she clever? Yet kind and loving. She takes after you doesn’t she?
I am grateful for the step back I’ve taken from online activity. It was much needed.
I am grateful for the autism support @ShesGotMoxie started on here. It’s so good to know others are with me on that journey while journeying sober too.
I am grateful for the full moon we had. It was stupendously magnificent early yesterday morning. I always feel very connected with the moon and moon phases. Maybe I’m just a lunatic?
I am grateful for 107 days sober and hangover free. But more than that I can feel my body improving and healing more with every passing day. It’s a blessing I don’t deserve but I am grateful for it none the less.
From one lunatic to another, it’s the way to be. Moon magic is life!
Today I’m grateful I got a lot of things done. I’m grateful I remembered the 5 minutes rule: You don’t have to finish a task, just spend 5 minutes on it to further it. No need to become desperate about a huge pile of whatever has to be done. Just set the kitchen timer to 5 minutes and settle things that take less than 1 minute to be done. I’m grateful I read about this way to manage short time and many things decades ago and I still practice it. I love it. The amazing results I get from 5 minutes just DOING without (over)thinking suprise me every time.
I’m grateful for two cats laying on me. I can’t move, they are soft and purr
I’m grateful for my cozy bed, for my still full from late lunch tummy and for the clear desk I will find tomorrow when entering the (home)office.
I’m grateful for hope too.
🥲
I’m grateful to have found the silver lining to a dark six months in which I lost so much.
I’m grateful to be sober.
I’m grateful to be more present for my kids and to be a better role model.
I’m grateful to be rebuilding my relationship with their mother.
I’m grateful to wake up in my own comfy bed with a roof over my head.
I’m grateful for the rain that has cooled the air after a hot few days.
I’m grateful to be working today and grateful that my clients have stuck with me after a few months of being unable to work.
I’m grateful for the crisis that has given me the impetus to begin the process of lasting change.
I’m grateful that the new meds have kicked in and grateful I no longer feel like ending it all.
I’m grateful to have found all you lovely people on here.
I am grateful to have a few minutes to sit and write my gratitude list.
I am also grateful for moon magic, and Luna the moon goddess.
I am grateful for all freshly energized crystals and deep meditation.
I am grateful for letting go of things that are not serving me such as frivolous spending, binge watching television, or hours on my phone.
I am grateful for the energy this frees for more meaningful things like reading, meditating, spending time with my family and dogs, creating, recovering.
I am grateful to be learning so many new ideas from so many amazing teachers.
I am grateful to feel unity among my friends.
I was grateful to read this morning that when we feel love from another it is great, but when we feel our own love this is the love that changes our lives. When we feel ourselves loving others, ourselves, nature etc. The love that is coming from us is really the love that counts.
I am grateful to know what love feels like.
I am grateful that I trust myself.
I am grateful for people who are flexible and I am grateful that I have learned to speak up when things just are not going to work.
I am grateful that I can really feel the difference between my will and the universe’s will. Mine causes chaos inside me where the other does not.
I am grateful for serenity.
I’m grateful for laughter. The kind where you can barely breathe. I’m grateful for peaceful walks with music. I’m grateful for clean sheets. I’m grateful for leftovers. I’m grateful I splurged and got groceries delivered- so I didn’t have to go shopping on my Friday night. I’m grateful I love cooking. I’m grateful I live somewhere where I can get outdoors all times of the year. 70 and sunny today. I’m grateful for my nightly guided meditations.
I’m grateful I’m learning to listen to my body. I’m grateful I feel stable. I’m grateful that when I feel sad, I know it’s temporary. I’m grateful for energy. I’m grateful for Eric’s post earlier. This part made me smile.
I’m grateful for this community. Without it I would not have found you all or even started to find me. Without it I would not be sober.
I am greatful I’m keeping busy. I’m greatful for the copious amount of tea and sparkling water im drinking. I’m greatful for my family and friends. I’m greatful for this community. So proud of 17 days AF. Im greatful this app prompts me to journal daily. Im greatful all of my days sober have been greater than 7 outta 10. Im greatful ppl responded to my post when i was struggling with cravings.
I have told my daughter that every morning I wake up and commit to my sobriety for another 24 hrs.
All we can do is one day at a time. No empty promises, real talk.
Good evening all,
I’m grateful for groceries being delivered too @Callie99! I’m grateful I got a raise at work. I’m grateful that I can own my feelings now- when I’m grouchy or snappy with the kids, I can catch myself and change it. Being drunk or hungover made me feel like I had a right to be grouchy all the time- I didn’t feel good after all . So grateful I don’t have to do that anymore. I’m grateful for exercise and sunshine. I’m grateful for love and forgiveness.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
I’m coming to realize this
