Today I’m grateful everything went well: My pick-up truck is back from the garage and the costs were ok. I brought the broken metal things, woodsticks and the heavy flower pots with the dead plants to our local waste recycling yard
I’m grateful I came home tired and cooked a quick yummi lunch. Grateful I still feel ok today, the third day in a row. Grateful I’m early in bed, sober and feeling ok.
There it is!!
Bam 200 days!
Congratulations on your 200 days Darcy.

Good morning all,
I’m grateful I have one more day off. I’m grateful for all the things I got done during the break from work. I’m grateful having time off of work doesn’t scare me anymore because I know I won’t spend it drinking. I’m grateful for the hike I went on yesterday with my husband. I’m grateful that getting out in nature makes me feel good. I’m grateful to have spent time with my sister yesterday, helping her get some things ready before the birth of her 2nd child. I’m grateful that although our relationship feels like it has changed- it’s not as easy as it used to be, I know it will be ok. I will keep working at it because it’s a relationship I value. I won’t expect her to work at it because then I’ll be disappointed.
I’m grateful I can see the rain in the distance over the mountains. I hope we get some at my house today.
I’m grateful for my life, and that I am capable of changing things in it.
I’m grateful for my home thread, especially when other threads start to get to me.
Everyone have a wonderful day
I’m grateful I don’t drink.
I’m grateful for Al-Anon.
I’m grateful for a beautiful sunset through the ponderosa pines last night.
I’m grateful I saw a pick on Twitter of the snow capped mountains downtown.
I’m grateful for snow capped mountains. Definitely one of my favorite sites. I hope to see them today on my way downtown.
I’m grateful my 2 readings didn’t pertain to me this morning and I blew them off.
I’m grateful for Minnie clomping around the house.
I’m grateful I don’t have to cook today.
I’m grateful to go out to lunch and dinner.
I’m grateful for cold mountain air and my fire in the fireplace.
I’m grateful for clear sky’s and abundant sunshine after all the lovely steady rain yesterday.
I’m grateful to be here
Acceptance, doesn’t mean we have to like or agree with it. We’re finding peace within ourselves regardless of the outside issues.
Grateful for the technicolor skies this morning at sunrise. Grateful my heron friend was there like they always are fishing at 6:30. Grateful that today is therapy day, it feels too long between sessions. I am also grateful for that feeling, the feeling of wanting help is a good one.
Grateful for the absolute raw vulnerability I witnessed at a meeting last night, grateful for the safety of our rooms, grateful for the loving kindnss and fellowship of our members.
Grateful that my afternoon/evening is clear, I am tired.
Grateful for dettachment with love, for tonglen meditations and for self care.
I am grateful I can see now, when my friendship and loyalty are being misused. I used to wash the feeling of disrespect and exhaustion down with lots and lots of wine and tell myself, that I didn’t deserve any better. I would’t speak up out of fear, people would turn away from me and I’d be left alone. It just seemed easier to bite my lip and dull the pain. Getting sober made it impossible, to continue with this behaviour. I am glad I can identify now, when something doesn’t feel right for me and I need to set a boundary. My wellbeing is my responsibility, not theirs. Saying no and in the worst case walking away or hanging up the phone is still crazy scary to do and needs coninuous practice, but I do love how it makes me feel: finally in control. To me it’s one of the true gifts of sobriety
Hi,
I’m grateful for my morning dog walk, it was fresh and breezy and it certainly woke me up.
I’m grateful I prepped my evening meal this morning, just had to throw it in the wok when I got home.
I’m grateful to see someone’s post earlier about a relapse at almost 7 months. I’m almost at 7 months. It really made me think. He said he thought he’d got it. I’m feeling like I’ve got it. I need to not be so cocky, rein myself in. Live by the day.
I’m grateful for this place.
I’m grateful to relate to so many people’s posts.
I’m grateful that I didn’t drink today and more grateful that I didn’t want to.
Today I’m grateful for:
- a really productive day
- a needed and deep cry
- my therapist
- a special friend who reminded me
- to attend a zoom garden end of season meeting
- a friend who visited my mom today, it was fine and lovely, she sent me a picture
- my cats … nuts, snuggling, playing, full of mischieve … a cabaret
- grateful for me: garden work is done, everything disposed at the local waste yard might not be THE big thing but for ME this is a breakthrough in coping with the situation
Grateful and happy to share this here. It means a lot to me. Thank you all
Clearance!
No, we haven’t got it.
We never will.
I’m grateful it’s best not to even try.
Oh my goodness, usually I like doing these in the morning because it sets my mood for the day but it’s the end of the workday and I’m only now getting around to it. Yikes I’m grateful this day is approaching its end, and that I don’t feel like I need alcohol to cope with the stress or aftereffects. I’m glad to be able to close the book on this day and move on without carrying it with me or feeling like I need alcohol to “help” me relax and recover.
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful my first day at work was good. It was a lot. It will be a lot. Then, in bed yesterday I was thinking that I might have changed in the last years. I am not aiming for more. An word I never really felt comfortable with: a career. I try to understand what I will be doing here. Reading guidelines which are like reading tax instructions. My colleagues are nice as far as I have seen them. So I am grateful.
I am grateful I have enough.
Yes, you’re right. That’s why this community is so amazing. It keeps you grounded. And there’s always someone to look out for you.
I’m grateful for you Eric and Talking Sober
I am grateful to have been surrounded by my familiar things as I slept last night, grateful for the comfort of showering with my familiar girly shower things, my familiar soft pajamas, grateful for feeling much more relaxed, at ease, and at peace. I am grateful Im finding some comfort and familiarity in my life again. I’m grateful I gave myself a chance, some time, grateful I kept the faith and kept going. Grateful life is looking up.
Grateful for my now 18 year old daughter. Grateful she’s healthy and finding her way in life. GRATEFUL to be apart of her life.
Grateful it’s Wednesday, grateful I’ve got a better hang on this week than I did last week.
