Grateful for my pups and cats. Grateful that I’ve not had a drink despite the incredible stress at work right now. Grateful for 26 days.
I’m grateful for the long weekend I just had, indulging my pastimes and interests, and the shorter work week ahead of me.
I’m grateful that I have this opportunity to work on setting boundaries with work and workload/expectations, and the opportunity to clearly communicate these to senior mgmt instead of just accepting the pressures and becoming resentful and stressed.
I’m grateful for my family of friends and that we can stay in touch through technology. I’m grateful for this TS community too and just how much “spillover” support it provides - not just to stay sober, but to face all the other stressful stuff that used to have me pouring a glass. I’m grateful for all the laughs and camaraderie here - making this journey charmed.
I’m grateful to be sober, and for all of the gifts of sobriety too. Like all of these .
I’m grateful for the company of my fine dog girl, snoring only a few feet away from me now.
M and D? I go back to when you were my age, 50ish, and see you each wanted a lot of the same things I do right now - and your examples show me how to go about making these changes.
I’m grateful for another day.

“Every single time I gave gratitude, even for the littlest thing, I felt I touched a presence greater than myself. It’s like gratitude opened the channel between me and God and I could touch God, if only for a minute.”
I’m grateful to God please help me to stay clean and sober just for today.

Today I’m grateful for:
- A nice orthopaedic surgeon and a quick painless (so far) procedure. My wrist is still numb so we’ll see how that goes. Mostly I’m just so grateful that my experiences accessing medical care have gone smoothly once I actually got my foot in the door. This is night and day, so much better than past experiences I have had in other towns/regions.
- The patience and support I am getting from my husband, my friends and family, and TS amigos as I push through anxiety about healthcare stuff. It might seem minor to some, but it feels like a big deal to me and everyone’s support is giving me that extra cushion of help to keep doing the next thing. There was a time in my life when I was so anxious that it took ages for me to make appointments that I had a very good likelihood of never making it to.
- Sunshine and no wind today!
Grateful for TS amigos everyday!
I’m grateful to God

Grateful for the first warm days.
Real quick like cuz it’s past my bedtime!
Grateful for another day of sobriety and the benefits it is giving me. Getting sober is like getting a huge hug nobody but you can give.
Stay strong out there!
Bye for now…
I am grateful I have healthy kids that are getting better at skating.
I am grateful for a husband who is easy-going about what is for dinner.
I am grateful that thoughts of drinking are rare and easily pushed away these days.
I’m grateful for the 10 day holiday around NZ with a girl. I’m grateful she asked me out to be her partner. I’m grateful I made it safely to my new city, got through the next step of my uni process. I’m grateful I have a place to move in tomorrow with a nice family. They have a son with Down syndrome who I have the opportunity to spend a few hours a week with in exchange for some money off rent. So I’m grateful for that opportunity. Like @Dazercat said earlier I’m grateful for the breath I just took, it’s a gift and that’s so true, I’ll only get so many. I’m grateful for this thread it’s so uplifting. I’m grateful I pushed through the resistance I’ve been facing in certain areas of my life, including the resistance to write this post… I’m grateful to god. Lots of love x
I’m grateful I start a course next week, and I’m grateful I’m nervous because it shows I care, I’m grateful for my sobriety and that there’s a fellowship here for me to check out.
First one so pretty basic…
I’m grateful for a roof over my head.

I’m grateful to be alive.
Today I’m grateful for:
- What seems like the start of a good working relationship with my new therapist.
- That the feeling has finally come back in my hand/wrist this morning. Going to bed with significant numbness still 12 hours after having local anesthesia was a bit worrying last night.
- Dreams. Because dreams are free. My husband and I spent some time this morning daydreaming about a future without debt - what would we do? He suggested an alpaca farm and making our own yarn, ha! That’s, MY dream, silly! It was fun.
Always grateful for my TS amigos
Good morning all

Im grateful I awoke to the sound of a dog about to vomit, and we managed to make it outside before it happened!
I’m grateful the kids are up and have readied themselves for school.
I’m grateful I get to drop my daughter off today and pick her up, and that I will be here with my son for reassurance that he will not miss his bus( he missed it a few weeks ago and it was very traumatic for a young autistic person who was home alone at the time😬). Working on helping him with the new anxiety that has caused.
I’m grateful for this thread, and for everyone on it!
Everyone have a great day❤️

But so fucking true.
I love you guys
I’m grateful for my delightful dog girl, still snoring away, and grateful that she likes to sleep late.
I’m grateful for my job, grateful to learn how to respond to stress and communicate in a way I can be proud of, (and grateful that I’m not using job stress as a reason to drink or to tell work to take a f*cking flying leap.)
I’m grateful I can look at myself more objectively - but slowly, with more self-compassion too. (And grateful I’m not running to fill the wine glass when I see things about myself that are, perhaps, not on any “top 10 best qualities in a person” list). I’m grateful for this umpteenth shot at loving myself and getting it right, or at least better.
I’m grateful I like to spend time alone and grateful I also feel connected to others in this crazy era. Including, of course, all the Gratidudes.
M and D? For everything that can’t be the way it was, ever again. Beyond grateful that it was. For as long as it was.
