Ugly cried this morning. Thinking about all I could have lost. So grateful my family is still in my life, supporting me, and loving me. Have an amazing weekend y’all.
Happy early Birthday! One of the best things I love about this community is reading other’s stories as it reminds me sobriety is worth it and it inspires me to keep going, your story moved me and I thank you for sharing.
Good morning sober fam,
Im so very greatful for…
My sobriety 258 days free from weed and alcohol
My husbands sobriety, 6 months today!
I got hubby a card, balloon, flowers, and cupcake for the occasion
Boscoe and all his cuteness
A friend got a new puppy and im throwing out names left and right
An hour long talk with a friend last night, she had been drinking but it was still nice to catch up.
Going to the store whenever i want, no longer restricted by booze
A packed saturday
Hubby wants more us time
Keeping to my new healthier lifestyle
A long weekend
Progress not perfection
Love to you all
I’m grateful I’m not hungover on this beautiful Saturday morning.
I’m grateful I live in Arizona, it’s the most beautiful time of the year right now
I pulled my back out but I’m grateful I can walk
I’m grateful my relationship with my husband, kids, sister and neighbors are improving
I’m grateful I have a house full of groceries
I’m grateful I don’t have thoughts of disparity and self loathing
I’m grateful the past couple of nights I’ve choose to go to bed alone without resentments. Well, maybe just a tiny bit the other night. But none last night.
I’m grateful it’s ok if some nights I want to roust her out of her chair to come to bed. And some nights I don’t feel like it.
I’m grateful for my quiet time in the morning.
I’m grateful for the clouds and the beautiful indirect sunrise I got to see from the comfort of my chair this morning. I’m grateful for the colors that seem to come and go from right to left with the mountains in the background.
I’m grateful I didn’t take another picture of it.
I’m grateful I just enjoyed it.
I’m grateful we had a real nice dinner out last night in one of my favorite fancy steakhouses.
I’m grateful we are all set and booked to see my daughter next week. C’mon Gus!! We’re waiting
I’m grateful my daughter feels good and confident about her doctor. I’m grateful they are scheduled to induce on Monday.
I’m fucking terrified! I’m grateful I can admit that here. Again. And to my wife. I’m grateful Mavy just bashed himself up on my lap, upper chest to comfort me. I’m grateful these guys know when I need them.
I’m grateful when I think it really would be much easier to drown my fears in martinis I know it wouldn’t be easier. I’m grateful I got 3 years of sobriety and there’s no fucking way in hell I’m giving that up. No sir! I’m grateful for the table of wine snobs we sat next to last night. That was definitely me. He dropped some good vineyards and labels. I was pretty impressed. I’m grateful I thought it was me when he said, “well I’m here. I might as well have a martini.” I’m grateful I wondered how many at that table would go home and continue to drink until they passed out like I use to do. Or did they do the unthinkable and just stop? I’m grateful that scenario was enough drinking for me. I enjoyed the hell out of my virgin passion fruit Mojito. I’m grateful I changed my mind and even had a second one.
(DISCLAIMER It took my about 2 and a half years before I felt comfortable having a mock-tail. I don’t recommend this early in sobriety.)
And I’m grateful this morning I’m in tact. Not hungover and sick. And I’m grateful I did the right thing. I’m grateful I’m generally good at doing the right thing. I’m grateful we had a nice early dinner out.
I’m grateful I always have a cat or someone around to pet.
I’m grateful not to numb my feelings.
I’m grateful I guess I ought to wrap this up.
I’m grateful for y’all.
When you find something that’s worth fighting for you never give up.

Grateful to know that there are people who care about me, remember me, and notice when I am gone, while never actually having met me.
Who is this
Grateful to see you popping in when you can. You’re always a treat
Today I’m grateful for salads ready-to-eat from the farmers market. I love it and I stocked my fridge with it. And vegetables for next week. I start preparing for my fasten week in february. It feels odd because I can cook whatever I want with no regard to the needs and wants of my former husband. Living alone is not all bad
I’m grateful for a walk in the sun. I’m still depressed, grumpy with myself and want this missing to fuck off. Why miss someone who gives a fucking shit about you? Yea, I feel dumb and daffy. I’m grateful this too shall pass and there’s no sense in beating myself up. Emotions come and go, this co-dependent outburst will also fade. Hopefully soon. I’m grateful I managed to pull myself out of this mood in the afternoon. I’m grateful for a long nap, yummi leftovers, cuddling cats, funny cats, a good friend calling me. I was sorry to hear his old, very ill cat has gone over the rainbow bridge yesterday evening. It was time.
I’m grateful for this reminder: Life can be over soon. I can waste it with resentment and pitty. I can keep on trying to let go and enjoy what I’m capable of. I can make babysteps even when babysteps mean to rest, pause and process all sorts of emotions. One day at a time. Always grateful
