Grateful for my friends. I don’t have many but the few are for real. This only developed in the last years.
Grateful I reached out for help yesterday to them. Grateful that they found the words to calm my mind already planning to get drunk and day by today.
Grateful my mother takes care of my grandmas. Grateful we can talk on the phone more openly. Maybe that’s because I tell here right away where to stop giving me advices. Grateful she seems to slowly accept that.

Good morning. Today I’m grateful the sun is shining. I’m grateful it’s the weekend and I can take a nap if I want to later. I’m grateful that my husband hasn’t drank in about 3 weeks- maybe the benefits he saw from me quitting got him thinking. Or maybe not, and I’m learning to be ok with that and worry about myself in that aspect. I’m grateful for TS and reading this thread everyday. I don’t always contribute, but I always read and appreciate you guys. Everyone have a great day❤️

I’m grateful I had a little sleep in. I’m grateful I’ve switched up my plans for the day after waking with the same booming headache I went to bed with last night.

I’m grateful my headache is not from drinking – that I’m not waking up to wash up the carnage of empty wine glasses (gag), and put another empty bottle or two in the recycling bin. (Some good strong coffee and a whole lot of water will take the edge off this headache, methinks. And getting my new glasses…)

I’m grateful it’s a sunny day and I hope to go for a good walk in the sun but if not – I’ll take a good nap in the sun.

I’m so grateful for this community – and even for every single post on this thread this morning. Made me smile. My past aside, I love that the present has all of our lives intersecting like this. It might sound corny, but like my yoga mat – it’s a kind of everyday sacred space. All of us sharing and honouring our journeys like this.

M and D? I’m grateful you “got” me, and that you let each of us kids be our own selves. Thank you for letting me quit ballet after only a year. Our hunch was right. I haven’t put on leotards on a Saturday morning ever since. :wink:

I’m grateful for another day. :orange_heart:

Gratitude Day 27
Daily Magicial Miracles:

  1. I never had a DUI
  2. I never killed anyone
  3. I still have my loving, supportive, husband
  4. My kids love me and dont judge me (well as much as a teenager doesnt judge)
  5. I still have my job
  6. My creativity and joy in doing things is coming back
  7. I smile more because I see the joy in more encounters.
  8. Fellowship of TS support, Phoenix support, and new AA support is there to help me when I stumble.

Everyday I have a magical miracle. I am blessed by them. When I get caught up in my ego, I dive into depression, sadness, self pity… When I redirect to my magical miracles I come back to gratitude, to why this journey is so important to me; to keep building those daily events and honoring them every day for the blessings they are.

Peace and Love♥️

This morning I’m grateful for the big full moon that broke through my blinds so early - and the time I took just to enjoy the dark, still morning.

I’m grateful that I catered to my headache and need for rest yesterday and feel back to my old M-self now.

I’m grateful for my coffee, my calm morning routine - and the beauty day ahead of me.

I’m grateful for the groceries in my frig and the time I’ll take to cook a good meal tonight (and have leftover happiness this week!).

I’m grateful that all of these things, right now, are because I am sober. I am grateful for everyone here and this place that helps me so much, every day.

M and D? Today is no different…

I’m grateful for another day. :orange_heart:

I’m grateful I’m not a drinker.
I’m grateful I don’t depend on booze for a good time.
I’m grateful I don’t depend on booze when things are shit.
I’m grateful I don’t depend on booze.
I’m grateful for grampa today. It would have been his birthday. Born in 1899. So that’s pretty cool. He spoiled and loved me so much and taught me so well. He wasn’t always right.
As a matter of fact, he was an old racist alcoholic coot. :scream: I didn’t realize that as a child. What am I going to do? Not love him and not treasure the wonderful memories of him taking me to Fenway Paahk or the beach or all the train rides into Boston?
I’m grateful I can still treasure the memories of me and grandpa and all the great things I learned from him. Especially grateful for the memories of him and me listening to the Red Sox games on the little white, yellow stained, box am radio in his kitchen, sitting on top of his fridge. No better way to spend a Saturday night in the 60’s. Betting a penny if George Scott was going to strike out or hit a home run.
I’m grateful my son wrote me this morning thanking me for the olive oil spritzer I got him for his birthday. And the apple pie I sent him.
I’m grateful for another day in Paradise. Sober and … I was going to list a bunch more shit but; SOBER will do.

I forgot about this. :point_down:
”heart racing and panic attacks during the night secondary to drinking”

I know exactly what you mean. My heart use to pound and race at the same time some nights in bed after drinking way more than enough. It scared the shit out of me. At least the headaches I deserved and would go away. But that feeling in bed there. Uggh.
Thanks for mentioning that. I never want that to ever happen again.
:pray:t2::heart:
