Hi,
So I have downloaded the BB and have read the first 3 chapters. I tried an online meeting this morning, wasn’t sure what to expect tbh but it was people talking about their day, nothing about alcohol, except for the serenity prayer. I’ll def keep trying different ones as I know it can take time to find one that you like. I journal every day and read on here constantly. I’ve just listened to another Recovery Elevator podcast on my dog walk. I’m going to NOT listen to myself at 4pm when I tell myself that it’s ok to go to the shop. Oh, and I’ve just eaten a huge bowl of ice cream

Grateful for Day 3 of my sobriety and the beautiful weather in my area today. 40 and sunny in February feels great in Wisconsin! Went for a walk and just felt great to move my body.

Functional senses. I don’t know if my sense of smell will ever be the same, because things definitely don’t smell like I remember them to pre 2019, but for my first year clean in my previous attempt, I couldn’t smell anything at all, some I’m grateful for what I do have.
Music that makes me feel . Happy is nice, sad is good in its own way, it’s just healthy to feel at all after a lifetime of numbing.
That although it’s uncertain and very unsettling with the landlord selling the flat I’m living in, today, I have a home, and the cats and I are safe.
That I can afford to feed the cats and myself.
I may not have it within me just yet, but peace around me in my immediate environment.
Hope. It makes all the difference for me.
The ability to read and write which enable me to communicate.
A conversation with auntie last night, unfortunately she and my uncle have both just had Covid, she is doing much better, my uncle is more elderly and still struggling with tiredness and the cough, I’m grateful they are fully vaccinated and it isn’t worse.
That I enjoy being alone. I don’t have any real life friends left, so I rarely see anyone, and the only person that ever contacts me first is my dad, so I’m really grateful that I don’t find being alone hard. I think I would if I didn’t have my cats, so as always, I’m grateful for them and their tiny precious faces, I really fkin love them.
My Grandparents, though they have passed away several years ago now, for looking after me and my brother every day after school and some weekend nights after my mum passed away so my dad could still work.and maintain his social life.
Spring, summer and the smell of freshly cut grass.
The CA meeting I’ve just got home from and everyone there for their shares, handshakes, and hugs, and for giving me a one week key tag even though that was 5 days ago. This was a HUGE step for me but I’ll share more about that in my check-in.
Sobriety, for giving me a chance to stay alive, and for blessing me with the connection I have with you all here on TS.
Every beautiful soul on this forum.
Thank you.

I am grateful to be sober today and will soon start my next sober day. I have not been doing that great with my sobriety. I never reached out and that is my own fault, but I am grateful to be here starting fresh.
I am grateful that I got the bit of sleep that I got and that I am working with a helpful coworker tonight.
I am grateful for my family and that I have a warm house.
I am grateful for my cats and for ‘in the rooms’, planning to hit a mtg before work.

Good evening all,
I’m grateful to be home, in my chair with a cup of tea checking in on here. I’m grateful that there are some new possibilities on the horizon for my husband job wise. He’s hopeful, which is wonderful to see. I’m grateful for my family.
Everyone have a wonderful evening

I’m grateful to God thank you for loving me and know I love you. I’m grateful to God for guiding me safely through a productive day all while helping me stay clean and sober. I’m grateful for recovery, including mine. I’m grateful for All my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes.
I’m grateful that I have somehow survived hitting who fucking knows how many “bottoms” my Mom, Sister and I were discussing this recently and had to stop because it was quite upsetting, to us all, that even together we couldnt figure it out. I’m grateful that for the most part I don’t get angry about it anymore and if I do I can eventually let it go. This too shall pass. I’m grateful I have developed what I believe is a healthy fear that I likely wouldn’t survive a relapse and that myself, my family and friends deserve better. #fuckcrack/fentanyl/meth/morphine/alcohol/pot/nicotine. I was absolutely the kind of alcoholic/addict that found substitutes.
I’m grateful to God and get to believe that I’ve been saved for a reason. I’m grateful I have narcan or naloxone or whatever its fucking called now, in my home and that I was sober and home to use it to save a housemate last night. I’m grateful I was able to use my tools to calm down after and still get just enough rest to go have a productive day at work today.
I’m grateful that I ordered food after work tonight and now I’m nice and full.
I’m grateful to read all your gratitude, that you are sharing all the feels, good and bad, it helps to be real and healthy IMO

@RosaCanDo your zen den looks great @Sunflower1 glad your daughters feeling better.
I’m grateful for music and exercise, humor and laughter. I’m grateful for my health and that my pain is managable. I’m grateful for forgiveness towards myself and others.
God bless you all.

I am just having a hard time finding the right words for my gratitude.
I am diapering a 75 lb dog all day and night. I am grateful she still listens to commands like “stand” and “stay”. I am grateful that she is easy going and looks cute as hell in her diapers. I am grateful for the small smile that crossed my face when I realized I had unintentionally matched colors of her vet wrapped tail with her diaper bum.
I am putting myself out there into the world, I am giving myself away fearlessly. I am so grateful that I am in a position in my recovery to be able to do this. That I have learned where my safe zone is, for now. I learned through trial and error and I am sure I will continue to learn more.
I am grateful that my days are driven by compassion, love, and growth. That I wake up genuinely looking forward to my days. Gone are the days I would make sure I was so loaded that I would wake up still drunk that way I never had to face my reality.
I guess I am feeling some huge shifts and sometimes words just don’t do how I feel justice. I am grateful for the feeling.

Today I am grateful for
Another good night sleep and waking up with no hangover, I will never tire of that
Being excited about my recovery, excited to improve, educate myself to understand me and my traits better, and work with them.
For ordering a new folder decorated with happy flowers to put all my worksheets in
For experiencing less cravings, my brain for being slowly rewired
For my dog, she really is my companion
My son is healthy and working hard at uni
Grateful for being grateful, at the start of writing this I had to think hard what was I greatful for, once I started I realised I had lots to be greatful for. So I am greatful for you and this thread, for changing my mindset at the onset of a new day.

Morning,
Today I’m grateful for the last 24 hours that were af for me.
I’m grateful for this snore free zone which meant that I got some sleep. I’m grateful for my awareness that things have to change and having courage to begin the journey.
I’m always grateful to the people here who, whether they know it or not, say the right things and are truly genuine in their love and support.
Thank you everyone
