Daily Gratitude List. Gratitude The Air Of Recovery

113 days and grateful 🥲

Grateful for enjoying and being honored with my fourth interview today for a well established Ministry in my local area.

Grateful I can recognize the honor, beauty and things of substance around me today.

Grateful for learning more about myself and growing into the woman Ive truly always desired to become. There is so much more to clean up and polish and throw out yet I have really come a far way from where I was when in the depths of my active addiction. (slavery, more like)

Grateful I’m blessed with use of my bffs vehicle. Life truly is easier with wheels.

Grateful my course online tonight went smooth and picked up a few more tools and insights tonight.

Looking forward to my new 6 week course tomorrow. It’s called Fuel Your Creative Spirit and it’s for people in Recovery. I was once a dancer/ choreographer and artistic on many levels and so I’m really looking forward to dusting off that portion of my life and getting reconnected with my creative self again.

Grateful for this space to pour out my Gratitude in the atmosphere and change this place with renewing energy.

Grateful for all of you and for TS.

God bless brothers and sisters :pray::100::fire::heart:

I’m grateful for ALL my family, friends,TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful for @Sunflower giving me a shoutout thanks so much, the support is needed and appreciated. I’m grateful that I have tomorrow off, I need it. I’m grateful that I gathered my courage and asked out a lady today, the answer was I would love to but can’t tomorrow so I think I will ask again another time. I’m grateful my parents said they had a nice fancy anniversary dinner out today. I’m grateful for late night snacks and some sort of t.v. or movie.

God bless you all. :v: & :heart:

Morning,
I’m grateful that I eventually sent a message to a friend that I’ve been putting off. We had plans to visit them for the weekend in a couple of weeks but all we do is drink in the house and garden. I really didn’t want to go because there is no way I wouldn’t drink if its there in front of me.
I thought of so many excuses but am grateful that in the end I decided to tell her the truth. What could she say but ok, let’s do it another time, which she did. I feel better that the weekend isn’t looming now and I’m grateful I put my sobriety first.
I’m grateful I didn’t drink yesterday or want to.
Have a great day :sparkling_heart:

I’m grateful that yesterday was filled with laughter, friends, and kindness.

I’m grateful for being able to feel again. The sad days are hard but they days filled with laughter and fun, feel pretty incredible.

I’m grateful that there are so many ways to participate on TS. I love sharing my fur babies on the pet thread. I’ve been enjoying the gratitude thread every morning. And when I’m struggling, there is a ton of support on here.

I’m grateful for all of you. Happy Wednesday 🐈‍⬛

I’m grateful that I slept well but had a slightly disturbing dream about my Mami and woke up talking to her. When I texted to see how she was doing and about the dream she said, “oh pobrecita! I’m doing fine.” She holds a belief that dreams can be an eye to the future, maybe not so far as to be prophetic, but we share our dreams with each other especially when they worry us. I’m grateful for her health and our relationship.

I’m grateful to have gotten in deep on some plant projects this morning, it always snowballs into more than I expect, because why get all the supplies out and only do a small project? Especially when there is always more to do. I’m grateful for my hobby. I miss some of my other hobbies that have fallen by the wayside, like knitting and crafting, and I’m grateful I can get back into these things easily. But veggie gardening is coming soon! :joy: I’m grateful for my passions.

I’m grateful to be reminded about detachment from folks here and starting to apply the ideas more actively. It helps.

I’m grateful for my vet’s office and that they will take good care of Lupe for some regular shots/tests later today. I’m grateful they still are taking COVID precautions.

I’m grateful for the meatloaf I prepared and froze a while back and that we’ll have that for dinner tonight.

I’m grateful I saw a reel on Instagram from NPR of someone handing out tulips to Ukrainian refugee women for International Women’s Day yesterday and saw their faces light up with a momentary joy.

I’m grateful for keeping things simple. And grateful for my amigos on TS :heartpulse:

I’m grateful if/when I had/have a headache this morning at 5:30am I can take some Advil and go back to bed. I’m grateful I think the coffee will take care of the rest of the job this late morning.
I’m grateful no matter how crappy I feel in the morning Maverick always makes me smile or even laugh in the morning with his funny chirpy noises. I’m grateful Maverick tries to wake me up with his soft paw to my face without scratching me. And when that doesn’t get me up I get the cat butt greeting with a tail to the face gently slapping me.
I’m grateful for Daisy’s cat zoomies and they usually happen before we go to bed at night.
I’m grateful my wife’s wine delivery came early this morning and we don’t have to plan our day around someone being home to sign for it. I’m grateful when the FedEx guy came early this morning I just sat in my chair instead of jumping up to get it.
I’m grateful I can hear Alice purring in her heated bed on the floor near me. I’m grateful Alice didn’t care if Benson was on my lap this morning when she jumped up and snuggled in with the 2 of us. I’m grateful I didn’t get killed when Benson started barking at the FedEx guy with Alice on my lap.
I’m grateful I guess all I got today is pet gratitude. I’m grateful that will be enough to get my day going.
I’m grateful for my chiropractor yesterday.
I’m grateful for my Laker Girl, Pilates instructor I get to work out with today.
I’m grateful it will be another cloudless sunny day again today before more snow :snowflake: tomorrow afternoon.
I’m grateful spring is right around the corner.
I’m grateful for gratitude :pray:t2:

Let Go

Today I’m grateful for a day of intense emotions. Grateful to ever have chosen my life on my terms. Grateful to only have one single decision in my life that I would change if I could. Nothing to do with drinking, just a life decision I made long long ago. I’m sure I’d be here anyway but in a completley other life. No regrets, just thinking about it and learning.

I’m grateful that all the surprise snow has melted and that the tips of the tulips and other spring flowers can be seen coming out of the ground from where I planted the bulbs.

I am grateful that I wake up early on my own and that I get to see the sunrise.

I am grateful for the memories I have when I think of the first sunrise I watched at the beach infront of my house. I remember the incredible pinks and purples, I don’t ever remember seeing a sunrise like that before. It was almost as if the universe was having a party saying," Wooohoooo you finally made it after all these years! I’ve been waiting for you!!!" And put on the show of her life.

I am grateful that tears flowed because of the powerful feeling of love I felt standing in all that glory this morning.

I am grateful for therapy, NA, TS and the willingness to participate in all of those.

I am grateful that I don’t live in a shithole anymore, that I have pride in my home.

I am grateful for my sore muscles, yoga was great. :blush:
