I’m grateful for another day. It had it’s challenges, which I met with varying degrees of success, but I woke up without a hangover and I’m tucked into bed snuggled up sober. Planning an outing with friends, and cuddling with the love of my life. I can’t wait for another imperfect day tomorrow.

@desert_rose congrats on 200 days. This morning as I’m waking up Im really grateful for the challenges the past month, last night I realized how much it had drawn me to my higher power. And what an unmistakable feeling that is. I am grateful that as I’m in my 42nd year of life I am actually feeling a little marble or two of wisdom rattling around in that brain and for me, someone who has struggled with alcoholism, and addiction, and impulsiveness - this is an enormous surprise and gift. At the beginning of my recovery I prayed for just this and it’s remarkable to be breaking free from my old patterns and foolishness. I’m very grateful that I contributed for the first paycheck to the emergency savings fund that my employer provides. Grateful to have made more than one wise choice over the course of the last 216 days. I’m grateful I still remember the day in March I was telling myself (and anyone around me) that I’d made the first good choice in a long time and I was going to treatment.
I’m grateful for this journey. Grateful for 2nd chances, grateful for comebacks.

I’m grateful my emotions and feelings were/are all over the place this morning. I’m grateful I took a page out of Stella’s and SoberB’s book and did a 10 minute meditation on letting go of resentment. I’m grateful I even cried.
I’m grateful to learn I still have so much work to do with or letting go of resentment. It’s so easy to try and let it go on the surface. And I even think I don’t have any resentments 
. I’m grateful to know deep down. Really deep down the resentment is still there. At least it was this morning. I’m grateful to know presently I let it go or at least tried to. And I’m grateful I recognized it.
I’m grateful I woke up way to early, even before 5 and with a headache. I’m grateful it wasn’t from drinking. I’m grateful for coffee and Advil and the meditation and it feels a bit better already.
I’m grateful for Minnie. The old girl doesn’t, or can’t, get up on my chair with me anymore. During my prayers in the dark this morning she knew I needed her and tried to get up on me 
. I’m grateful sometimes Minnie just knows when I need her. Or knows when I’m have a lonely little pity party.
I’m grateful for desert mornings.
I’m grateful I got a mani pedi yesterday.
I’m grateful for, “How important is it?”
I’m grateful for coffee.
I’m grateful to watch the sunrise from my living room.
I’m grateful for courage.
I’m grateful for Courage To Change.
I’m grateful for Today’s Hope.
I’m grateful I’m going to be seeing my granddaughter real soon.
I’m grateful I can wrap up the baby shower plans today.
I’m grateful I can keep busy today with all the shit I have to do and not wallow in unpleasant feelings. I’m grateful I think I’ve felt enough of them this morning and it’s time to move on.
Thank you very much.
It’s okay to feel hurt; it’s okay to cry; it’s okay to heal; it’s okay to move on to the next feeling, when it’s time. Our willingness and capacity to feel joy will eventually match our willingness and capacity to feel hurt.
Today’s Hope

I am grateful for my lovely home, fluffy cat and my husband (even though he’s quite stressed lately and we have words, I know he loves me).
I am grateful to have finished my latest book, and am already looking forward to the next one.
I am grateful for Netflix and the never ending choice of amazing show and films to watch, and for getting to watch them sober so I can understand what’s going on and remember what I’ve watched!
I am grateful I am still here to make plans for my future and set goals for myself.
I am grateful to be sober and for this place.

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful that today’s I believe that today is another new opportunities not another endless fight: drinking or not, don’t buy wine. Endling up buying every day.
I am grateful I took the exit when it was still possible.
I am grateful I slept okay.
I am grateful I did some yoga. I am grateful I don’t have to look at the teacher as she is triggering for me in a weird way.
I am grateful I have some meetings on my list today. Structure. 
I am grateful I have enough.
I am grateful like I heard yesterday in a RD meeting I more get frustrated about me trying to change myself then being frustrated about my life situation and of the whole world which is out of my reach.

I am grateful for new mornings and emotional restarts. I always thought it’s fascinating how a good night sleep can reset the clock. Grateful for my family, although I find it hard to be around them at times. Understanding, they are vulnerable and scared human beings in need of reassurement and compassion, just like myself helps me forgive their actions. Grateful for my therapist, who always holds space for me when I am in need. Last but not least, grateful for hot coffee with oatmilk and warm wooly norwegian socks to start this beautiful autumn day with.

Today, I am grateful for:
- The Gym. It has been an absolute lifesaver during the last month or two of my sobriety. I used to struggle from anger issues, but with my new, clear mindset, I can channel any underlying emotions I’m feeling into a gym class or workout. Plus, I come away feeling great, so it’s a win/win.
- Warm, cups of tea. Here in the UK, we’re currently experiencing dark mornings & early evenings. It’s so tranquil to be able to sit without disturbance and watch the world go by.
- Having goals and ambitions. I feel like my life has purpose & I’m working towards a greater goal, piece by piece or step by step. Whether that’s getting through the day sober, or it’s exercising, or likewise - I’m somebody who needs to be emotionally stimulated and having plans for the days or weeks ahead helps me to stay focused.
- A good diet. Since I’ve become sober, I’ve increased the number of vegetables and fruit I’m eating, I’m enjoying good proteins such as chicken or lean meat, and I’m exercising which is having such a positive impact on my physical and emotional health. Good food stimulates and equals a good mindset!

I am also grateful for a restorative nights sleep. Im grateful for the 24 hour block we get to operate on, grateful for a restart every day. I’m grateful that I’m learning this to be true and when it gets to be that I’ve been up for 15 hours and I’m overwhelmed I just press the pause button and know I’ve had enough of that day and I’ll pick it back up and keep trying tomorrow instead of beating a dead horse and stewing in the emotion and overwhelm. I’m grateful I’m gaining perspective.
I’m grateful it’s my Friday. Grateful Ive almost completed another work week.
Grateful it was payday yesterday. Grateful for the direction in which my life is headed. There’s a definite incline of improvement every day, no matter how small the incline is, it’s obvious in it’s direction.

Yesterday, a thing happened but I didn’t realise how big it was until thinking about it this morning. Yesterday, I was offered a job working with over 50’s to develop a piece of theatre for a big festival in July. I’ve accepted and I’m so grateful that these people who wanted to work with me can see my skills and talents. I’ve been homeless 3 times, living on the streets, been to prison, had such a chaotic an unpromising lifestyle that was heading to nowhere. I’m grateful that I have the strength inside me to turn things around and not settle for less. I’m grateful that people can see that the good in me far outweighs any bad and I’m grateful that people trust me and give me opportunities to develop and shine. Feeling good about myself today x

I’m grateful to be up again way too early, no headache. No hangover. Im getting a jump on things for my trip today. And grateful I can sneak in some early gratitude.
I’m grateful yesterday is over.
I’m grateful I got more work to do on….guess who? 
I’m grateful I think I got some deep resentments I just can’t let go of. It’s got to be why I was in such a pissy mood yesterday. I’m grateful I got all the tools. I’m going to meetings. Shit. I even did 3 meditations yesterday. And exercise. But I just couldn’t let go of what was bothering me. I’m grateful I found a podcast on the recovery show about resentment. But still. Nothing worked. I’m grateful I woke up today and I feel different. Currently. For the better. Nothing’s changed.
Dang feelings I guess some days those bastards just have to come. Hang out. And eventually go.
I’m grateful the joy I get every morning when I side step Daisy so I don’t trip. Pet Mavy at my sink when I’m washing my face. Hear Benson get out of bed and follow me to the kitchen. Watch Minnie get up and stretch a good morning, and take the dogs out. And grateful when Alice follows me to the master bedroom for her breakfast and B is already in there waiting. And I’m grateful when Mavy doesn’t puke up his breakfast because he ate too fast. I’m grateful I get to sit down with my coffee. My God. My readings and devotionals. And my gratitude. I’m grateful now I get to watch the sunrise.
I’m grateful I can realize all the worrying in the world will not get me to the airport on time. I’m grateful I’ll be ready. I’m grateful I can only take care of what’s inside my hula hoop. I got no fucking control of what’s outside my hula hoop. I’ll be grateful, even though I know this, when I can 
accept this.
I’m grateful I can still work on acceptance and resentments if I’m willing.
Have a grateful day everyone.
Resentment = Anti-gratitude.
