I’m grateful for another sober hangover free morning with Benson on my lap and Maverick on the back of my chair behind my head. My Christmas decorations and fire in the fireplace and my nice warm merino wool sweater and my grandmother’s quilt.
Grateful for the walk during the snowfall yesterday with the dogs.
Grateful I didn’t drink yesterday when the “fuck it train” showed up.
I’m grateful to have spent 37 and a half years with wifey and that we are still together knowing each other’s moves and thoughts and being one with each other.
I’m grateful wifey and I have so much in common and we kind of know what the other one is up to. It’s kind of predictable and boring but who needs surprises at this age.
And I am grateful we almost never argue or fight.
I’m grateful for the joy my pets give me every moment of the day.
I’m grateful for all the healthcare workers. God Bless them all and keep them safe.
This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.

Truly grateful for my family and friends. Sunshine being a positive, not something I avoid like Dracula. Christmas lights. The 3 Bald Eagles living in the tree across the street that I can watch soar and ride the thermals out over the pond. They will fly right up my street, sometimes right past my windows. It’s pretty incredible. The compassion and kindness of strangers. Everyone on this app working on making themselves and their piece of the world a kinder, more positive place. Thank you all.
Dec.13
Been missing my check-ins, but still grateful over here.
Grateful I’m sober, grateful for the life my parents gave me, grateful for another day.
Im greatful to God. I’m greatful for my recovery. I’m greatful it’s Sunday cause this past year I’ve been working hard at being better and not drugging and drinking. By no means do I stop that because its sunday but I certainly enjoy slowing down and being greatful. Doing family stuff and watch some sports or listen to some music all things that am I grateful for regularly but with my religious upbringing Sunday was always that day of rest and reflection. I’m greatful that my home group meets tonight. I’m greatful im getting a new housemate that I’ve grown to be friends with. Not sure which day he’s moving but I don’t care it’ll still be nice. I’m greatful to hear that another friend from my hometown is going to attend treatment starting this Thursday so I’ll get to see him again when I go back to cook and attend meetings see my consellor, hang with the guys. I’m greatful that I getvto share here as well and write this stuff down thus decluttering my mind it really does help.
God bless you all. &

Today I am grateful for my job. I’m greatful that even though it’s really testing at times, that the gifts of recovery have shone through. I’m greatful for retaining my drug and alcohol sobriety. I’m greatful for 538 days sober. I’m greatful for this gratitude thread and the wonderful people that post here. While I’m drowning in my misery you guys are the light in the distance that gives me hope, and a place to move toward out of my own self created dark places. Today I’m greatful to be safe, to live in a beautiful country, to have the basics for survival and a whole lot of creature comforts. I’m greatful for the people in my life that show me love despite how trying I can be, and I’m greatful for those I contend with, because they challenge me to find a better way.
