I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful for boredom. It finally gets me motivated to check out new things.
I am grateful for the nice weather atm.
I am happy I got a short morning yoga sequence in this morning before work. The third time in a row. That’s far away from a routine. With everything it starts with today.
I am grateful for the nice track I found yesterday and decided to do it. It was a very nice kinda touristic ride with interspersed trails. There are plenty of forts here in town and around.
I am grateful I have enough.

I am grateful to finish the weekend strong at my homegroup. It never fails to fill up my cup, no matter the circumstances. Grateful for the hard won peace I feel at the end of a weekend where I battled with more anxiety than I anticipated.
Grateful to be going into a workweek calm and with my well-being intact.
Grateful.

Im grateful for my coffee and quiet time with God this morning. I’m grateful I took a little extra time for that this morning. Just me and the Big Guy 
I’m grateful for my God given strength to stay sober after drinking for so many years. I’m grateful my Dad RIP Quit drinking after years and years of self medicating for pain. I believe he was a bit younger than I was when he quit. But he just got tired of it and up and quit. I’m grateful for my parents. I’m grateful I’m learning I can be angry at them for things in my past and let it go. I’m still not sure how to do this. I’m grateful, I think one day when I did “The 5 Why’s,” I was able to be a little angry at them and let it go. I guess everyone feels anger differently, I’m grateful I don’t stomp my feet or break things, or blow my top, or act out physically, when I get angry. I keep waiting for that “Bad,” feeling. Maybe there isn’t one. Today.
I’m grateful my wife is up.
I’m grateful I asked and she told me her back felt a little less worse. And we conversed some more and I’m back to my gratitude.
I’m grateful for Al-Anon.
I’m grateful for The Recovery Show podcast.
I’m grateful I listened to the podcast about recovery in the Film and TV industry. I didn’t want to. I just thought the topic would have nothing to do with me. WRONG!! I’m grateful for my open mind. I’m grateful Recovery is Recovery. I’m grateful I can learn something about recovery from anyone in any profession.
I’m grateful I read the “show notes” about the episode, If I’m Not The Problem There’s No Solution. I’m grateful one of the listeners wrote in about how valuable reading the shows is to her. And I’m like “Show Notes?” 
I’ve never read them before.
I’m grateful Alice is purring so loudly, I hope she doesn’t hurt herself. I’m grateful for purring cats and zoomies. I’m grateful Benson has finally learned to give us a sign when he needs to go out and pee. I was so proud of him last night. It’s taken 7 years 
We are usually very very proactive in this department, but last night was a major break through for him. He’s all grown up 
I’m grateful for G-Dudes.
There is a solution. I / we all, have the power to awaken within us, the courage to change, the things we can. And, I have come to know that that thing, is ME.

Today I’m grateful for an open and honest talk with my psychiatrist. I’ve felt so lost the last days, having anxiety, missing my life. A life that doesn’t exist anymore. Grateful there are better and worse days in coping with it.
Grateful for Tiglat sleeping beside me for hours. Grateful for leftovers. Grateful for dishwashers, washing machines, electric kettles, tea and that I can stay inside my house as long as I want. No need to leave it. Today I struggle with high emotions and I’m grateful the day is over.

Grateful to wake up sober again on my fourth day into our eleventh annual Vegas trip! I was worried about how difficult this would be, and excited to finally experience a vacation where I’m not drunk/hungover the entire time. I’m grateful for you guys being here if I needed you, and I’m grateful for my boyfriend’s support, and I’m grateful for cake and sprite with cranberry juice. I’m grateful it hasn’t been as hard as I’d worried it would be, but still vigilant against any wavering or pre-rationalizing thoughts. Sitting by the pool with my coffee and my book, feeling good and proud and peaceful. The last day of this vacation marks my 30th day sober, and I can’t think of a better way to end it.

Today, I’m grateful for:
- Good food, and being able to just laze at home, although I feel like I should be doing something slightly more productive with my day off from work.
- Exercise - after a hit-and-miss kind of morning, today’s CrossFit class allowed me to use my energy in a productive manner.
- Being 49 days sober. One day at a time, but I’m really beginning to feel the benefits of being more present, and I’m able to control and defuse mood triggers before it goes too far.

Im grateful that while i dont know how to help my husband i know that its not my job to fix him. It hurts to watch him but its not my demon to slay.
Im grateful for my new therapist. He really gets in there and to the point. I never thought of myself as someone with ptsd from childhood but armed with the informatin and seeing how its affecting me today is a relief. Im lookong forward to starting emdr? And see how/if that can help me.

I’m grateful for our vets app and I’m using it to keep up with my pets appointments and being proactive so I don’t fall behind. I’m grateful there’s so much info on there.
I’m grateful for Apps.
I’m grateful 1013 days ago, on a whim, I thought
Maybe there’s an App that can help me stop drinking. Now look at me 
I’m grateful God put this one right out there in front of me and I didn’t have to try any others.
I’m grateful when God gives me exactly what I need.
I’m grateful, here’s Alice 
I’m grateful my hot tea didn’t get cold on me yet.
Hiding in the background, thinking you’re not pretty
Holding back your thoughts, 'cause who’s gonna listen?
Hiding behind a half smile, hey, it’s such a pity
Everybody’s missing out while you’re busy
Holding it all inside, inside

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful that I said stop in a training session at work because I could. It was too much information too late in the day to me. Maybe I am not as stress resistant and performant as other people. It was already a over my limit and I only wanted to be out, to make her stop talking about the 10th exception when my goal is atm to get the software.
I am grateful I am home. I still have 2 hours of yoga related things today. I am stressed. Being under time pressure stresses me a lot.
I am grateful I can say this here. There is still a voice yelling at me how weak I am. I won’t do the October challenge today. I’ll do my handstand course though.
I am grateful I was given the chance to make it through these emotions sober. Some 4 years ago my first thing would have been buying a bottle of wine. I’d be fighting the urge to open it until past the meeting and already calculating how little time I’d have to gulp gulp gulp it down and how I could be fit 8 hours later probably spending the aftermath of drinking, binging and purging. I am grateful that this does not sound attractive to me anymore.

I am grateful that the illness I have is not COVID but man, do I ever feel like shit.
I am grateful that I did not have to get up with an alarm this morning after coughing all night.
I am grateful that I can stay in my pajamas all day and that I don’t have to work while I am sick.
I am grateful for the calm feeling I have even though Lyric is very unwell, I knew this was coming. I am grateful the color came back to her gums and her shivering stopped when I warmed her up. I am grateful that she is eating cheese strings and drinking water but I know that won’t last for long. I am grateful that I am unwilling to take her into the animal hospital for them to prod her with needles and do a bunch of diagnostics when I know what is happening. Stressing my old girl out when she is feeling sick is just not going to happen. I am grateful for at-home euthanasia and that I was able to book an appointment for Thursday morning. I am grateful the Dr who owns that company is flexible so I don’t feel locked into that day and time.
I am grateful for gratitude and how it always gets me through the hardest of times.

Day 5 sober. Definately need to remember to be grateful as I progress.
Went to my second AA meeting today. I was proud and grateful to walk into a supportive room knowing I had earned the 24 hour coin given to me at the first meeting. When given to me, I had not earned it yet.
