Hi Shaunda happy Sunday. Grateful that humility and gratitude go hand in hand. Just a quick afternoon gratitude. Video chat with my daughter and grandchildren a little while ago filled me to the brim with gratitude. Gratigrands? Why not. Feeling blessed.
Today Iām grateful for a lazy sunday again. For breakfast, newspaper, service on TV, nice whatsapp chats with friends, a short walk, that I cleaned the kitchen before I go to bed soon. Grateful for cuddling, funny cats, sunshine, missing my mum and husband, this feelings come and go. Grateful for leftovers again, for catfood in cans, for central heating, for interesting documentaries on TV. Grateful for living in a peaceful place
Identity can save our asses if we are honest with ourselves.

Im gratefull that i am in my house in a warm bed safe and sober.
Im gratefull for all the little things i may not notice some days or maybe not yet at all but im gratefull so gratefull.
I am grateful for brisk air, more light during the day and and the tiniest bit of happiness the snow puts on peopleās faces. I am grateful for a weekend get away with a friend and that the thought of drinking barely came up. The childrenās punch was quite enough for me. I am grateful for music and connection.

Lets go out and slay the day soberly!
Grateful I went to the Dr this weekend, even though itās scary. Iām just like a real adult! Grateful she listened to my concerns and validated them, and weāre starting some new meds that will hopefully make me feel better and address some things Iāve been avoiding. Iām so, so excited to feel better.
āI keep thinking about alcoholās place in the relative scale of drugs. If it were illegal or at least not marketed the way it is, I would probably not have let it go on for so longā
@Bootz I have spoken to that often. I feel selfishly grateful that without a pain management doctor I wouldnāt know where to get pills or especially heroin that was too easily accessible when I lived in Miami. Alkeehol is so prevalent and accepted. My son-in-law doesnāt see his excessive drinking as a problem because of this. That being said Iām grateful he is addressing his anxiety with psych meds. Grateful my kiddo shares so openly with me. She told me he isnāt ready for therapy yet but the psychiatrist upped his dosage and he feels the difference. Grateful. Grateful my daughter is a therapist sheās handled this with grace and aplomb. Grateful for English muffins and music. For a beautiful share I heard earlier at my recovery Dharma online meeting. Grateful my phone gets me there until my technically inept ass gets help from Geek squad. Grateful for self denigrating humor. Always always grateful for yāall. A key piece as I stumble into grace (tip of the hat to Emmylou Harris). Offering Metta to all. Namaste

Iām grateful I got it pretty fucking good.
Iām grateful I went to and chaired my meeting last night. Iām grateful when I left I had that feeling, I got no problems compared to these people. Iām grateful I can hate that feeling and grateful itās not a contest. Iām grateful for my wife
Iām grateful I feel like I still belong and I still can continue with my recoveries.
Iām grateful I got to lead and picked step 2 again.
Iām grateful I have learned I can use the group as my higher power and be restored to sanity.
Iām grateful this thread and my gratitude practice can restore me to sanity.
Iām grateful a lot of people in the group last night āuse,ā to go to AlAnon for some qualifier a long time ago and now they are coming back again because of a new situation.
Iām grateful I read about tradition 4 in my Paths To Recovery book as the meeting tonight follows readings from that book. Even though I still donāt like that kind of format Iām grateful Iām keeping an open mind and going anyway.
Iām grateful the recovery show has their new podcast out this week about gratitude. Iām grateful I sent my gratitude list in to the show and am wondering if they will read it?
Iām grateful itās Thanksgiving week and I hope I took the turkey out of the freezer early enough to defrost in the fridge. Iām grateful itās not a big turkey but I never seem to time the defrosting correctly.
Iām grateful my son was outside decorating his house for Christmas. Like father like son. Iām so proud of him. Iām grateful they invited us for Thanksgiving dinner that they are hosting even though they know we wonāt come and leave our pets alone and traveling on Thanksgiving sucks big time. Iām grateful we will see them right after Thanksgiving.
Whelp itās late. Iām grateful I slept in the last couple of mornings. Iām grateful to get another day going and sharing it with yāall.
Life is full of give and take. Give thanks and take nothing for granted.

I am grateful for Mel, keeping asking me if she doesnāt understand @mx_elle and I am grateful that I grew apparently a bit and donāt take it wrong.
I am grateful I digged out a very old picture of mine yesterday. I was thinking about the time back then, walking to the grocery store getting stuff for a binge each night or every other? I am grateful I donāt have to do this anymore. I am grateful I can still learn.
I am grateful Iāll check into a yoga session in some minutes. I am grateful I can walk. I am grateful I donāt want to die. I am grateful I participate in this gratitude thread. Well, well. I am more than grateful my boss stopped talking before my head exploded today. Too much information. I guess I was in a bad hypo. Bit whoād mention this?
I am grateful for this day. To be sober 5 months today. Iām grateful for the peace I have created in my life free from toxic people.

Grateful you shared that beautiful pic
I love it. What a treasure.
What was your horseās name?
Edit again:
Sorry. What a rat-catcher?
Congratulations on your 5 months of freedom Rich!!
Today Iām grateful for my psychiatrist. I felt a lot better and emotionally more stable than a month ago and we talked about it. Iām grateful itās ok that I donāt know where I want my life to be heading. I will find out eventually.
Iām grateful for a deep talk with my councellor. Yes, there were some truths I refuse to deal with at the moment. And thatās ok. As long as I donāt get stuck, babysteps are a reason to be grateful. Today Iām grateful I listened and learned.
Iām grateful it was kind of an emotional day today and itās over.
Grateful the old boy stopped coughing, he might have eaten too much gras. He is such a cutie rubbing his nose on my finger and sneezing
Iām grateful I cooked dinner for me alone and felt good about it. In the past I cooked for my mum and husband and me on sunday so on monday there sure were leftovers. I miss this routine. Iām grateful I develop new routines. Or try to by repeating what feels good for me.
Iām grateful for my comfortable couch!
