I’m grateful for this quiet, cold morning. Like a buffer that surrounds me from the things I can’t control, a shelter before I head out into the day. Bundle up, M, it’s cold outside, and there are storms at work too…
I’m grateful I’m learning to keep better check on my bucket of energy - physical, mental, and emotional - and rein things in when I need to. Some of the best advice I ever got: go to sleep at night with enough energy left in your bucket to do another day when you wake up. And get enough sleep!
I’m grateful that finally, 50 years old, I only want to break my own records, set new personal bests. And leave enough time and energy to play, too. How else am I gonna put energy back in my bucket?
I’m grateful - no, beyond ecstatic - to put this shitstorm of a week behind me. I’m grateful to be sober after a week like this. I’m grateful for the gifts of sobriety. I’m grateful for what it teaches me about myself, others too.
M and D? remember Mom’s low-fat low-sugar muffin-making craze? and how Dad would slice open the hard little things, layer them with butter (fat) and honey (sugar)? Something makes me smile every day.
I’m grateful for another day.

Today I am grateful to be celebrating my 5th sober Friday… It still amazes me that I am choosing this new life.
I am so grateful for all the people I have met. For being an introvert its amazing how many sober friends I have recently drawn into my life. Its like they are hidden until we start asking for them to be part of our lives.
Peace and love to you all♥️

Today I’m grateful for sleep, and coffee. I’m grateful that my Dad is doing ok- he’s in the hospital currently after a scare with his heart. Liver biopsy was done faster due to this (which I am grateful for) so a cancer diagnosis will also come faster. Heart bypass is needed also…
I’m grateful for the talk I had with him, my mom, and my older brother yesterday. Lots of laughs.
I’m grateful the sun is shining today.

I’m grateful for this cold, quiet, weekend morning - and the good sleep I just had. I woke up too early, but had no problem going back in for the sequel!
I’m grateful I woke up hangover-free, shame-free, happy about the day ahead of me. Not just trying to get through it.
I’m grateful for the sun. I’m grateful for the parka I have (the size of a small house, pretty much). It’s beyond cold, and while my mental health loves its time outside - “one day at a time” is teaching me that I can withstand a cold spell, and even be grateful for this hunker in time. Not just trying to get through it.
I’m grateful I’m slowly learning not to run away from the hard stuff - the stuff that makes me sad or mad. I may not love it, it may be hard, but sobriety teaches me - the only way out is through.
I’m grateful for technology. Whether because of a pandemic or a cold spell, it’s hard to get cabin fever when I can stay in touch with so many dear ones, stream all my programs and tunes, cue up a zoom yoga class on a saturday morning. And of course play goofy word games!
M and D? Yep, she’s a fine day. 
I’m grateful for another day.

I’m grateful for my sponsor and his broad range of 12-step work that can help me sort through my difficulties so they feel less baffling.
I’m thankful for yoga. If you have younger kiddos, I highly recommend Cosmic Kids. Excellent way to introduce mindfulness. My son loves it.
I’m grateful for our woodstove and a shed full of wood to get the family and I through the polar vortex.
I’m thankful for warm cuddles on extra chilly days.

I just wanted to say - I’ve been meaning to say - I’m grateful for your presence here, on this thread and on TS. When I joined it, I don’t think you were posting that much, and a couple people were sending you “missing you” posts.
Now that you’re back, I’m grateful for your posts on the check-in threads and elsewhere - your perspectives, insights, and thought-provoking (in a good way) comments (and questions) most always give me something to chew on, add to my own toolbox.
It’s a weird thing - counterintuitive to me - but I think our shared vulnerability, (calculated of course - this is online and there were hiccups this week!) makes us all collectively stronger, more courageous. So thank you.

Today I’m grateful for:
- my comfort programs - shows, movies, miniseries that are my go-to for every mood when I need something to occupy my mind. Or even just to have on in the background. I read somewhere that these types of comfort programs are especially helpful in times of uncertainty and for people who have a past that includes trauma because they are predictable, reliable, and we know what our emotional response will be in watching them. Lines up for me!
- the fact that I identify as a “maker.” I’ve always been a crafter, have dabbled in woodworking and furniture refinishing, I am a pretty good home cook, and I get a great sense of satisfaction from making things. I’ve been sitting here staring at the old hand-me-down dresser that once belonged to my grandparents that’s looking worse for wear after several moves and lots of rough handling. I love the hardware on it and it’s a sturdy piece, now to think about how to spruce it up. I am grateful I have the time and energy to do these things now that I’m not drinking.
- I’m grateful that my hands and issues with arthritis are cooperating so that I can knit all day without pain, as long as I stretch my hands and take breaks.
Grateful for TS and my amigos here!

No pressure, but I’d never complain if I were ever tagged (on another thread, probs) on posts with pics of dresser do-overs or knitting projects in progress!
