Today I am grateful for:
- being back at work after feeling so low last week. My mental health really took a dive, so I just had to stop and focus on me. I feel stronger today.
- having a warm, comfortable and safe home.
- getting to walk someoneās dog for them on the weekend. Really helped my mood.
- an early night with a good book and leaving temptation downstairs with my husband. That takes such strength sometimes, it really does.
- making a mind map of all the things that keep me happy and well. I really want to learn to be more resilient so things donāt take me down so easily when life goes wrong.
- for sober nights and hangover free mornings!

I am grateful for the changes in me, its incredible, I am really learning to let things go. ( Like the four days I missed posting spiritual principle a dayā¦ moving on)
I am grateful for the way too busy weekend I had. I sold some of my things at a market and celebrated Gās bday with ALL his kids.
I am grateful that I was welcomed, hugged, joked with and that I only felt awkward for a few moments.
I am grateful to be learning that I can do these things clean, I wouldnt have even tried before I would have anticipated a shitshow so it would have been an excuse to get loaded before I went.
I am grateful to be safely tucked in bed after a great meeting where my newest sponsee took 90 days and an oldtimer took 29 years.
I am grateful for my super soft, black, cashmere cardigan; am I ever grateful for that.
I am grateful for my kiddo and how shes really stepped up to help me fill the void Nugget is feeling since Lyric passed. Nugget cant be left alone she howls this long low sad howlā¦ and soft out breath cries. Its heart breaking.
I am grateful that I am able to separate Nuggets greiving from my own and not take hers on as well.
I am grateful for the night, the moon and the clouds in the sky.
Good night.

I am grateful to have had the energy and motivation to wake up at 5 am and spend the last hour cuddling with my pups and speaking to a new person who is 11 days sober. Thatās how far I was when I reached out for connections. We are attending a meeting and having brunch afterwards over the weekend.
Today I am 40 days sober, and I am ever grateful.

Elections are stressful to me, and can be triggering. Iām grateful that this cycleās election day has fallen on my wonderful, supportive SOs birthday, so that I can focus on that instead ofā¦everything else. Iām grateful to have a free gym at work so I can sweat out some stress and get some endorphins. Iām grateful to know helpful breathing techniques and to be able to recognize intrusive negative thoughts and try to shut them down. Iām grateful to be able to remind myself at these times to treat myself and others with kindness and whatever grace I can muster.

Iām grateful to be powerless over alcohol.
Iām grateful to be powerless over people.
Iām grateful we finally had alone time with my daughter last night. Even though she was a bit of a bitch and unkind to me and my feeling were hurt and I didnāt know what to doā¦ā¦ Iām grateful I didnāt react and get in a big argument. Iām grateful I can know the facts. The fact is she is 7 months pregnant. Fact: she had a big weekend with family and friends. Fact: She said she was tired. Fact: my expectations of finally getting to see her might have been unrealistic.
Iām grateful for facts.
Iām grateful my wife and I got to bitch about it to each other last night. Iām grateful today is another day and Iām not carrying around last nights butt hurt today. Iām grateful going over just the facts helps me make this possible.
Iām grateful we get to go home today and see my puppas and kittens. Even though we are socked in with fog and rain and wind advisories, Iām grateful I know I definitely have no power over that. And Iāll be gratefully calm to know weāll get home safely when we get home. Iām grateful I know having a truck load of double Bloody Maryās will not get me home. FACT!
Iām grateful for my wife.

(I have almost 3 years sober otherwise I would not recommend going to a bar like this.)
Iām grateful we went to the lovely bar here last night after dinner and I had a fantastic mocktail with cucumber and some other weird ingredients I canāt remember, and she had a glass of wine and it was nice. And we did some bitching about the new parents to be. Iām grateful we still got up to bed by 9 
Iām grateful weāre so fucking old 
Iām grateful you guys are always here no matter where I travel. You all mean a lot to me. Iām grateful for my home thread.
Writing down the things we are grateful for is a way of sealing our gratitude in a conversation with the universe. By writing our gratitude, we offer an invitation for more things to be grateful for. As we write those things for which we are thankful, physiological changes take place within us that foster peace, joy, hopefulness and love.

@Dazercat thank you for your very candid post I loved it. It sounds like you have a lovely relationship with your wife and a great deal of empathy for your daughter who although is not the easiest to be around right now you recognised she is probably struggling and you love spending time with her in whatever capacity she offers . Butt hurt! Thats hilarious! I love that expression And I loved the gratitude quote from the Nurse Healer. It was beautiful. I am a nurse and grateful myself so it reasonated. Blessings to you soon to be sober grandpa

Good morning sober friends! Coming to you after another sober nights sleep and waking to Day 43. Today I am grateful for all of the support, love and encouragement I recieve every morning when I get on the TS forum. I truly appreciate you all 
I am grateful for my comfy bed and the quality sleep I now get since I stopped getting so drunk each night I would pass out. I am grateful that I have a great job to go to today. I am grateful for the roof over my head that job provides. I am grateful that I ironed my scrubs last night even though I really couldnt be bothered so I dont have to do it now before work and have to rush. I am grateful for the leftovers I will have for lunch from the beautiful meal my husband cooked for us last night. I am grateful that my friend is going to be discharged from hospital today and it is only 6 weeks til her baby will be here instead of being delivered early. And I am grateful I made the choice to get sober and keep choosing to be sober everyday. One day at a time.
Lots of love
Ree

Today I am grateful for:
- my new warm fleece winter PJs. They are pink and soft with bright yellow cats on them, and are probably the most unsexy nightwear anyone could imagine, but I totally love them!
- for my lovely warm home.
- for the endless entertainment available on Netflix.
- for getting to grips with my course revision and enjoying it. I have a plan!
- for books and authors. I constantly seem to have at least the next six books I want to read lined up. Just so little time, and I also tend to fall asleep after reading too long, so sometimes takes me a while, but I love them.
- for having the energy to go for a walk before work this morning. I really hope to make that a habit, but I also like to stay in my warm bed.
- for having plans to take my mum Christmas shopping this weekend. Itās been planned for months, and I know she canāt wait, and itās nice to spend quality time with her and buy Christmas crap!
- for this thread and for whoever the genius was who realized that if we take the time to be grateful for what we have, the world feels and is a much better place to be.
Nite all! X

I feel grateful when I see people still trying, dont ever stop.
I am grateful for earl grey tea with honey and milk; a warm home and clothes.
I am grateful that I am not getting sucked into others co-dependant ways. Instead I just sit silently while they figure their shit out. No more Ms. FIXER for me. Fuck-it, I am enjoying the energy stores I have been able to save up.
Dont take things personally. I am grateful for the Four Agreements, along with some other of Don Ruiz books.
I am grateful that I am listening to my wisdom and taking sometime for myself before the meeting tonight instead of rushing to Gās like he wants me to. I have been torn into many different directions lately, āme timeā has been impossible.
I am grateful I took the time to write this list before I hopped in the shower. Gratitude isnt difficult when when I am running ragged but slowing down is. S.L.O.Wā¦ down.
I am grateful.

Good evening all,
Iām grateful that I was able to spend yesterday with my sister. She delivered her 2 child, a little girl, at about 4:30 in the morningš. Iām grateful that I wasnāt hungover, and so I had more patience, energy, and focus to give to her and her family. Iām really grateful for the long walk I took my nephew on so parents could rest. Heās 2 and everything is amazing and exciting to him. Iām grateful for hot showers and comfy PJās after a long day at work. Iām grateful for freezer meals on days like this, so I donāt have to worry about dinner. Iām grateful I found a place where I feel like I belong, very grateful for my homethread gratidudes.
Everyone have a wonderful evening
