I am grateful (so fucking grateful) that the holidays are over. This has been one of the hardest holiday seasons for me. I struggle to come here and feel like a broken record talking about how I am doing, but I am grateful to know that I can do so and get support. I am grateful that I can recognize that part of what makes me a beautiful human is that I feel so deeply, that I have empathy for others, and that part of what I have been torn up by is that these holidays are not some picture perfect Hollywood experience for so many in our world right now. I am grateful that I have learned a lot in the last few years about understanding my emotions and even when things get hard I can get through it.
I am grateful for the loving support of my husband and for his patience and thoughtful nature. I am grateful that even though he drank more than I was comfortable with during his time off, he has decided to do dry January. I am grateful we talk and listen to each other, and that he reiterated that he knows that it can be hard for me when he is drinking and that he feels “some kind of way” about it. Maybe guilty? We couldn’t quite figure it out, but we will just keep talking about it. He also recognizes how much better he feels, more confident at work and healthier when he isn’t drinking. It’s a start, and I am grateful to walk along side each other in our journeys to being and doing better. I am grateful for connections I have with others who understand where I am, or at least try to meet me where I am. I am grateful for friends and family who help me get out of my own head. I am grateful to have continued my daily gratitude journal, even when I haven’t been present on TS and especially when I struggle to feel grateful or keep my other daily routines going. I am grateful for the long talk on the phone I had with my Mami on New Year’s Day - unplanned and lovely to check in with each other.
I am so grateful to have woken up on this first Monday of the year feeling like I could take a breath, feel hopeful again and start reconnecting to my vision for the future, for how I would like to be and do better. I am grateful I have a LOT of experience getting back to basics and tools to do so…and that halfway through my day I am DOING it.
I am grateful that @Dazercat celebrated his 2 years in recovery and @Singtone one whole year (you made it!) and for all the other shares here. It’s really motivational for me and I know for everyone else. Thank you for sharing!

Oh my gosh, thanks so much! Taking care of plants has helped my mental health so much, I’m so looking forward to doing it all sober. Thanks again, I’ll be in that thread for awhile now.

I’m grateful to God please help me be better today than I was yesterday and to remain 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 my sister called me this afternoon. I’m grateful and lucky that I get to go to work as covid lockdown has started again today, closed alot of things down here in Ontario for two weeks, for now. I’m grateful that I know all of this is out of my control and the feelings I have over it all are a mixed bag, yet, managable thanks to things I am learning working my recovery and helping others with theirs. @Singtone BIG congratulations to you. I’m grateful you are here and well done getting through a year, keep moving forward. Like others said today I’m grateful for all the literature written by alcoholics and addicts for alcoholics and addicts. My collection of recovery literature and self help stuff is growing, I should probably finish reading them all and watch less disney, netflix and youtube, its always something, dang it. Progress not perfection as I never used to read anything.
I’m grateful for food and coffee. I’m grateful that I am making my bed when I wake almost everyday. I’m grateful my house is clean and tidy, literally, as is most of my side of the street. I’m grateful for music, humor and laughter. I’m grateful at my homegroup meeting last night one of my favorite people celebrated his three years clean, another was celebrating her eleven years. He brought in his kids and there were pets, we had cake, it was really nice. The speaker he chose was really the highlight. I’m grateful to have heard her story and that I have developed the skill to actually listen to these speakers now and not just sit there waiting for my turn to vent. I’m grateful to read all your posts, short and long from newcomers and longtimers.
God bless you all. 
& 
p.s. Don’t forget to smile and breathe, it feels good. Ya you!!

Just a quick addition. Very grateful for this token that my wife has given to me. It was quite the surprise since she isn’t really on board with the whole sobriety thing - but she is clearly trying. I’m grateful for that.
Not sure if I’m entitled to it since I don’t do AA or the steps, or anything like that - but I’m happy with it.

Good morning, all.
Grateful to be sober and clear headed again this morning. When I think what I put myself through in the before time it beggars belief. Grateful that I can’t bear the thought of it now - which helps to keep me on track.
Grateful for the beautiful evening that we all spent at my in-laws house yesterday. As predicted, the food was great, and my wife was very happy and really enjoyed it.
Grateful to be reading ‘Infinite Jest’ at the moment. Have any of you read it? It’s an incredible book - although it is dauntingly huge. It’s fictional but incredibly insightful about the mindset of an addict.
Grateful that my year is done and dusted and that I can now just focus on living sober again without all of the noise around this particularly challenging milestone. Grateful to be working on day 366 (nothing special) today.
Sometimes it may seem like I throw it in there as an afterthought, or because it is part of the recipe for a complete post, but I am genuinely grateful for all of your posts and for the support and encouragement that they provide. I am particularly grateful for the support that I have received in the lead up to and the subsequent passing of this recent milestone.
Have a great day, all.

I’m grateful for a good night’s sleep and to wake up feeling good.
I needed a dock truck to tow my boat with and I found one yesterday. I took it for a test drive, and it runs great! So, I bought it. Low miles. Low price. Perfect! It does what I need it to do. One step closer to being self-employed. A big step. I am grateful!
It’s a 2002 Dodge four-wheel drive. It’s pretty clean for an old truck. V8 gas guzzler, but it only needs to tow the boat 100 yards to the crane and back to its parking spot. It will be able to do that for a long time.
My slip on the dock is front row. I have an ocean front office. When I’m not fishing, I can come enjoy the scenery any time I want. I can make coffee and stay warm while catching the sunrise. I spent some time there yesterday as the storm was coming down. The clouds opened up. It was pretty cool. I am grateful!
There are only a few places that use cranes to launch boats into the ocean. We have no dangerous bar to cross. The only dangerous bars are in town. 
I don’t go into those anymore. I’m safe! You cant get into a bar fight if you don’t go to the bar. I’m grateful to have so many better places to spend my time than inside the bar talking about all the things I want to do while being too drunk to actually do any of them.
I make good things happen sober! I am grateful!
I’m grateful for all the milestones to celebrate!
@Dan531 800 days! Our sober dates are close. I’m grateful to walk this path with you. I’m grateful you suit up and show up to recovery through difficult times. I’m grateful for the example that we don’t have to drink no matter what. We can be strong and supportive to our loved ones.
@Singtone A full trip around the sun Alcohol free! Congrats! 
@PlantLady19 3 days is awesome! I started feeling better each day after day three. Physically it gets better each day, Mentally, it varies each day. You have found some awesome support here. Gratitude makes the mental challenges easier. Glad you’re here!
