Day 103.
I’m grateful to have removed all toxic fake people from my life. My circle of people around me is very small now, spending tons of time alone as well and loving it. I find myself extremely picky about who I want in my life in any way now. With the removal of toxic people in my life I’m feeling so positive and peaceful. Everyone have a great day!

Today I am very grateful for the traditions of Narcotics Anonymous. I am grateful that I am in a place now in my recovery to understand their importance and be willing to do some work around them. I am grateful for tradition guides and workbooks full of questions to challenge my knowledge and broaden my understanding.

I am grateful for Tradition 1, and unity. It is shining heavily in my recovery right now. “… personal recovery depends on NA unity.” I am grateful for openmindedness and willingness to figuring out ways to help other addicts in this program grow and reach their highest potential. One of my sponsees was asked to sponsor a newcomer but she hasnt finished her steps yet. I know my sponsee is at a place where she really wants to help other addicts and I believe that being a go-to for this newcomer will help her right now. I am grateful that the three of us came up with a plan and I will take the newcomer through her steps. We are a good group of women who I believe this young girl will really benefit being around, and my sponsee can still be her “big sister” in recovery. Thats unity, its the practical framework that binds our program together.

I am grateful that I was not on my man friends bike when he “had a little wipe out” tonight. I am grateful he is alive and that his son has taken him to urgent care.

I am grateful for recovery sunday amd cuddles in bed with my kiddo.

Congrats on 6 months @desert_rose! Doesn’t it feel good??

Congrats to @Soberbilly on 5 months! We’re doing this damn thing!

I. Am. Grateful this morning. Grateful I was asked to chair in my homegroup last night, grateful I accepted. Grateful that I put thought into what I read to the group, grateful I felt heard by those that are currently patients in my treatment alma matter. Grateful for the sense of accomplishment and pride I had in myself for doing something that seemed overwhelming at the time. Grateful that yet again I pushed myself to grow. Grateful that it made me even more apart of and comfortable with the NA group.
Grateful to be back at work waiting to clock in. Grateful for the recovery of the weeekend and for the strength to attempt this crazy ass work schedule this week. Grateful I know I can do it. Grateful that I’m approaching this just as I encourage those approaching recovery, and am asking myself what do I need to do differently this week? What will make me more successful? Grateful that giving up is just not an option for me.
Very grateful for the good friends I’ve made in recovery that helped me recovery mentally and spiritually over the weekend.
I’m grateful I have 200 days clean and sober today! That’s right! I just saw my counter! I’m so grateful I kept the faith and stayed clean, kept my recovery in my focus and can now celebrate 200 days. Here’s to another ODAAT.

I am grateful for coffee, because this morning was tough. Cloudy and cool sleepytime weather. I don’t know if that counts for here, but I’ll add that even trudging to the coffee pot, and trudging around the neighborhood on the morning constitutional with my dog I was grateful to be able to appreciate the morning, the quiet, the time with my buddy, and to prepare myself for the day and I wouldn’t have felt that way if I wasn’t sober.

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 :+1:
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.
