Good evening all,
I’m grateful it’s Friday and work is done! I’m grateful that now I look forward to take out food (a Cuban burger tonight!) and early bed instead of drinking myself into oblivion and getting no rest. I’m grateful for my family, my dogs and bunny, my life. I’m grateful to have shared my beautiful sunflower with you guys 
Everyone have a wonderful evening

It was pretty good! A burger patty topped with pulled pork, melted Swiss, mustard, and pickles on a toasted bun.
Enjoy your veggie burger! I got some new veggie burgers to try from Imperfect Foods-The Green Burger😬 looks a little scary to be honest!

I’m grateful for everybody here.
I’m grateful to be in my comfortable bed, for learning to let go, for learning to love myself and know that it’s okay not to be okay all the time.

Today I’m grateful for my partner. He still drinks, not a huge amount, maybe once every couple of weeks or so. It doesn’t bother me, although I sometimes get annoyed the morning after when he’s fit for nothing. But last night, he said he was thinking of getting wine and would I mind. This made me feel valued and showed that he’s aware of my feelings.
Grateful I’m here with you

Good morning 
Today I’m grateful for @anon9289869 self-love thread. It didn’t take me long into my sobriety to discover that I didn’t have a lot of love for myself. I knew that it wasn’t necessarily a good trait to have, but didn’t realize to what extent. Just because you learn something about yourself, you don’t just wake up the next day and bam it’s fixed. Waking up glowing with love for myself didn’t magically happen. It’s been slow, uncomfortable work. I believe slowly I can start to fully love, accept, and be gentle with myself. I’m grateful that Jess created a space for me to be kinder to myself.
I’m grateful I’m learning about attachment styles.
I’m grateful how we react to things aren’t written in stone.
I’m grateful we can change, something I didn’t always believe.
I’m grateful the rain has been replaced with sunshine.
I’m grateful that I’ve always been a hard worker. I’m grateful that I’m willing to spend some of that hard work on myself now.
Have a great day gradtidudes

I’m grateful I’m 27 months sober on what would have been my sister’s birthday today. I don’t know if I remembered that last year of not, but she would have been proud of me 
I’m grateful I had such a wonderful buddy for a older sister. She was the fucking coolest.
I’m grateful I don’t drink.
I’m grateful for the time I spend on TS and some of the loving responses I received the last couple of days. I appreciate it
I’m grateful to read the struggles of new people, because I really don’t think I got another day one in me. But I know I got today in me. And I’m grateful I get to share my experience with them. I’m grateful I understand more now about how important that new person is. When I was new on this journey for a long time I thought I was the most important person. I guess at that stage of my recovery, I was. I’m grateful for my growth and open mindedness.
I’m grateful my Pilates instructor and I had such a great time at my workout yesterday, especially when we both found out we love David Byrne and Ted Lasso and musicals and Broadway and mission trips.
It may sound strange but I’m really grateful for all the women I’ve met in my life whether it be trainers or chiropractors or Yogini’s or the beautiful women here at TS or at the nursing home I use to volunteer at in east Austin or the Julie’s in London. And family members like my grandmother. Oh gosh I don’t want to leave anyone out 
but the list could go on and on…….
And my mother!
I’m grateful for my wife.
I’m grateful for our life together.
I’m grateful for spring and warmer weather.
I’m grateful Kelly got to get her hair done yesterday.
I’m grateful the house is still pretty clean.
I’m grateful for Buprenex instead of the Onsior for Alice’s arthritis pain management @Chiron I do remember our chat about the Onsior. I’m grateful it did work so well and now we’ve found another route. I think Alice is addicted to a narcotic now 
for some reason Kelly has no trouble getting that one down her.
I’m grateful gratitude works for me.
I’m grateful gratitude is my strongest tool in sobriety.
I’m grateful for ODAAT.
I’m grateful for Gratidudes!

I’m grateful for all the comforts I have in my life. And for another good night of sleep
I’m grateful to be back on the gratitude thread. I haven’t checked in for a few days. I love reading everyone’s posts. Gratitude is so important, especially to recovery. I’m grateful for all of you

G’morning y’all 
I’m grateful I slept well last night, almost too well. I didn’t wake up until 9! I’m grateful to be spending the weekend with Keely, staying up late, talking and laughing. Laughter truly is healing.
I’m grateful that I’m feeling more comfortable being here on the forum. I do realize I’ve stepped back a good bit, but that feels better for me.
I’m grateful we’re getting a visit from my parents-in-law today. They were out of our lives for 14 years, so they have no idea of all that Keely has accomplished and how she’s grown. I’m grateful that my father-in-law will get to see her house and visit with her, because he doesn’t have much longer to live.
I’m grateful for Chesney and Cash. They make me happy. 
It’s been 1-1/2 years since my little Maltese passed, and I think I’m ready to adopt another dog. I’m grateful enough time has gone by that I’m able to at least think about it.
I’m grateful my gratitude isn’t forced. I’m grateful when I feel that it’s going to be, I just take a step back and give myself patience. I’m grateful for learning about toxic gratitude early in sobriety. I believe I would feel resentment if I forced my gratitude. This is one of those “notes to self” that helps me grow.

Good evening all,
I’m grateful for a fun Saturday spent paint-balling for my nephews birthday. I’m grateful for family. I’m grateful that my daughter decided she wasn’t going to join in because it was new and scary, but changed her mind and had a blast. I’m grateful for the sunshine today. I’m grateful that I haven’t needed to take a sleep aid the last couple nights to go to sleep. I’m grateful I have another day to do what I want tomorrow.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
P.S. I’m grateful to see you writing up there Brian- ya you!

Good evening!
Today I am grateful to have volunteered to love on some kiddos and their parents at project apartments in Denver.
I’m grateful to be present today and see that children need attention and love and I took part of throwing footballs, painting nails and grilling hotdog’s. Plus I met some really incredible people with human hurts and victories and I learned today. 
Today I am so grateful for my spiritual mentor and our 10+ year relationship. I was able to spend over an hour with her today and each time I leave her wanting to be a better woman, mother, daughter and friend. She truly is a God send.
Today I am grateful for the woman in my home, their drive to remain sober and do this recovery thing.
Today I am grateful for my friend taking me up the mountains for a good dinner and fun.
Today I am grateful for the sun shining and a sunroof in the car.
Today I am grateful to be clean, alive, joyful and human.
Today I am grateful I have a Sponsor to finally work the NA steps.
Today I am grateful for my God and what was accomplished on that cross for me.

I’m grateful to God, thank you for loving me and know I love you. I’m grateful for my recovery with all its blessings and challenges. I’m grateful for All my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful I got to have dinner with my parents, sisters, brother in law and neices. I’m grateful my housemate drove me an hour each way and waited at another restaurant while I attended Moms 70th birthday dinner. I’m grateful for the reminder that spending almost a weeks pay on nine dinners and gas is nothing compared to the binges I used to go on. I’m grateful for music and creativity. I’m grateful I’m back to work tomorrow. I’m grateful for humor and laughter. I’m grateful to see @Sunflower1 , @Minatasha and @PaigeTurner avatars as they are posting too, good to see you
God bless you all. &
p.s. You are Awesome. Ya you!!

You can only do what you can do with old cats. At a certain point it’s about making sure their quality of life is good. Zelda takes a massive amount of Gabapentin (for a cat), but it works for her. I just put the powder in her food. It’s the easiest medicine. I do have some Buprenex in case Zelda falls and hurts herself or has a really bad day, but she gets it sparingly because I want to be sure it will work when she needs it.
I had to deal with the DEA flagging her pharmacy account because she was prescribed both of them (even though she only takes one daily). It was so annoying and dumb. All is good now, but the vet had to deal with the hassle of proving that he had a relationship with the animal and that there was just cause for it. 
I’m glad Alice is doing well on the Buprenex though! And it’s not generally termed “addicted” if she is taking it as prescribed. Just “dependant”. It happens. But if it’s helping her, then she’s probably just going to be taking it long term anyway. You’re doing what you can to keep your old kitty comfortable in her twilight years. You are a good cat guardian

I’m grateful for the hard work involved in learning a new piece of music; and that with each note and each measure, I improve a skill that produces a beautiful sound and makes me feel happy.
I’m grateful I need to work and strive to aquire this skill and the others I have as well. I think we tend to take for granted what we are easily given, and without something to strive for life can feel empty and meaningless.
