I am grateful to be tired. Being tired is being alive.
-
I am grateful for the kickass speaker at my morning meeting. She lit it up! And gave me so many golden nuggets, continuing to open truths about my past and work that needs to be done to keep it out of my future.
-
I am grateful how quickly my mind comes back into focus when I don’t drink. Why I would ever want to kill these magnificent brain cells I was gifted with, well, we probably all know the answer to that - escape.
-
I am grateful that my PFLAG support meeting is tonight. I am grateful to be feeding hungry, hurting people, while they share their challenges and success since last month. If you ever are questioning, hurting, needing support for yourself, or for an LGBTQ+ community member, feel free to reach out. If you ever need tools, information, pamphlets for someone who doesn’t get it, let me know. Just let me know.
-
And always, I am grateful for you.
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful that tomorrow is off.
I am grateful I can work form home in Monday although I forgot the AC adapter at work and I’ll have to get it on the weekend ![]()
I am grateful I had another good day at work.
I am grateful I don’t drink and I don’t spend time fantasizing about it. I am grateful I don’t miss it.
I am grateful I can get things off my chest here without being judged and without further explanation often. I am grateful that I am learning step by step what’s mine and what belongs to someone else. Not taking everything personal.
I am grateful I have enough.
Im greatful for a healthy lunch
Im greatful im getting paid to take continuing education courses
Im greatful for Boscoe snuggles
Im greatful
Today I am greatful for getting to day 10 without much temptation from within. I am enjoying my new outlook on life, health and wellbeing. I am greatful for having such a supportive wife and famiky to help me.
I am also greatful for my job and the fact I get to spend the weekend with my 6 month old daughter and her 2 older siblings.
I’m also truly greatful for having a beautiful home to go to evry day/night.
I truly am blessed ![]()
Today was a hard day for me, I’m not sure why. All of a sudden I felt anxious like I had swallowed someone else’s current emotion. Before the sudden anxiety I had felt peaceful.
I’m grateful I tried deep breathing, even though it didn’t work.
I took a little walk outside after lunch and I felt a little better.
I’m grateful the day is over and I’m home.
I’m grateful I ordered dinner so I could just relax.
I’m grateful that I know that not all days are peaceful and sometimes I’ll have hard days.
I’m grateful I have my book to read after dinner.
I’m grateful I can shower, light a candle, and get cozy.
I’m grateful I have little things that relax me.
I’m grateful I have learned other ways to take care of myself when numbing use to be my norm.
I’m grateful if anything comes up I’ll allow myself to feel it.
I’m grateful for all the changes I’ve made in my life. Anxiety was the norm not that long ago. Before sobriety I would have pushed down my uncomfort of a difficult day with a bottle of wine. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
I’m grateful I know I’m strong enough to sit with the discomfort and take care of myself. I’m grateful that tonight that’s enough:yellow_heart:![]()
Grateful for roof over my head
Grateful I hit 8 days today and finally almost over COVID! I feel like it’s been blessing I’ve worked from home this week my body has gone through sickness but it’s recovering and it’s cleansed! I’m not afraid of going back out into the world after being sheltered this first week and change. I have spent the week observing my life and cementing that I’m going to fight everyday for myself and to be the person my family deserves!
Also grateful for this place
I am happy knowing when I go back out into the world I have a whole community in my pocket for when things get tough which I know there will be tough moments!
I am grateful that G took his 9 year cake tonight, and that his kids, my daughter and mom all came to help celebrate. I am grateful he asked me to present him with his medallion. He has had a BIG year… a real big year and I am grateful for people like him who show me that shit can get real in recovery and we can make it through without picking up.
Im tired, Im grateful its bedtime.

Good morning, everyone.
I’m grateful I’m realizing the first stages of resentment I’m harboring towards my husband, before letting it grow and explode. I’m grateful I have a clear head to understand how I’m responding to his actions. I’m grateful that my reaction is something I can look into and control to some extent.
I want this year to be a good one, but know the next 6 months or so will not be easy on my family. I’m grateful I can look at it with clarity, without the blurring effects of alcohol, and try to make my best decisions on each step.
I’m terribly afraid to harden my heart and shut down precious feelings to cope with it all. I’m grateful I recognize this.
I’m grateful I found my favorite coffee in the store again - a cuppa first thing in the morning is a much needed treat.
I am grateful to wake up sober. I am grateful that my headache is from lack of sleep, not alcohol.
I am grateful for the family of my choosing that supports my family and holds us up.
I am grateful to represent an organization that stands up for marginalized people. I stand for humanity.
I am grateful for vulnerable shares there and here. They help me and make me want to be a better advocate for those who are suffering.
I am grateful for the Peruvian woman who stepped into our meeting last night with her daughter. We just lost all of our Spanish speaking Board members and she appeared, ready and willing to become involved (unless I scared her with my enthusiasm).
I am grateful both kids are here in the house. It’s always nice to have them here in the mornings.
I am grateful that “this too shall pass.” Whatever that appears as today,
I am grateful for the Friday womens’ meeting that begins in three minutes.
I am grateful for you.
Good morning sober fam,
Im so very greatful for…
My sobriety 257? Days
My husband and how excited he gets to get in bed with me at night…its so cute
Boscoe, my puppy forever
Looking forward to 40+ degree weather and walking Boscoe
Payday
Monday off
Dreaming of a new tattoo idea
Boscoe waking me up to go outside
Keeping up with my new lifestyle
AA fellowship
TS fellowship
Everyone here taking it one day at a time
Lets kick todays ass
Grateful for another sober morning. Grateful for a life full of love and security, and a future I am happy to look forward to. Grateful to be in a position to make a date with my bf to visit our overcrowded municipal dog pound tonight to see if we can help and add another furry member to our little family.
I’m a firm believer in the There Are No Stupid Questions school of thought, but when my love asked me if I might want to adopt another dog I thought maybe I’d finally found one. The answer is always yes lol. I’m grateful to look forward to a girl’s night with my mom and besties in her birthday in the upcoming weeks. I’m grateful that when the subject of alcohol came up with my boss and I mentioned that I don’t drink, she asked why in surprise (we have a good relationship so it wasn’t weird) I just told her I’ve already had my quota, and hers, and this other guys (pointed to rando), and she laughed and said she knew exactly how I felt and that was it. I didn’t feel anxious or ashamed, I laughed and felt relieved to share a little bit, and I’m really grateful for that.
I’m grateful I woke up without a hangover or regret
I’m grateful for a 3 day weekend
I’m grateful for my job that provides for my husband and 3 daughters
Thank you all for thinking of me ![]()

I’m still processing yesterday. I’m grateful I got the keys for our farm back. I’m grateful I petted not only my own cats but also a ginger sweetie at the park behind the courthouse. I don’t know whether I’m grateful or not I met my ex by chance there. Seems he will get back his driver license soon. It hurts to see him. Emotions are all over the place. Fuck, I was doing really good over the holidays. I’m grateful I decided to stay away from the farm until he moved out and we settled the finances. I’m grumpy on myself, I don’t want to feel this way. That’s hard. Letting go feels hard these days. Yesterday was the first anniversary of our dear friend’s death. I’m grateful I lit a candle and asked my ex to do so on our farm too. Our late friend loved the farm. I miss him. I miss us all being together.
I’m grateful Miss Marple curls up between my legs, my right leg will slip from the couch soon. I’m grateful for the love and snuggles my cats give me. And for their peaceful sleep and snorring. I’m grateful I cooked yummi lunch today. I’m grateful it’s friday 13th, I like this date, it was always my lucky date. I’m grateful for my cozy house and the beautiful christmas decoration I kept up. I’m grateful for a warm shower. I’m grateful for TV, I need some light distraction today. I’m grateful for the talk with my councellor this week, it still echos in me and keeps me thinking. I was doing good and now I feel stuck again. I get on my own nervs, I’m dissatisfied. I pray this shall pass too.
I’m grateful I didn’t react to the cement truck blocking our driveway yesterday morning when we went out to walk the dogs. I just thought maybe it will be gone before we have to leave for our appointment. It was.
Im grateful for solo afternoon Benson walks when I had to force my ass up off the couch. I’m grateful we were able to sneak out without Minnie knowing.
I’m grateful when I can pull one over on my geriatric dog.
I’m grateful my wife and daughter had a long text chat yesterday. We are all very stressed. I’m grateful my daughter now wants us out in Cali when Gus arrives. Now I’m stressed. That wasn’t the plan.
I’m grateful she wants us. I’m grateful after a few hours and a sleep I’m all over it and changing plans.
I’m grateful I’m going through “This,” sober.
This = Waiting
What’s the big deal? I’m grateful I can wait soberly; and physically and mentally feel good about myself. And I’m grateful I can wait without trying to control things because some things are just out of my control. I’m grateful for the “Wisdom To Know The Difference.”
I’m grateful I already mopped the floor this morning.
I’m grateful we don’t have to do Alice fluids this morning.
I’m grateful I’m out of sugar free chocolate and basically out of sugar free snacks so I won’t be binging on them. It’s a minor binge. I’m grateful I know it’s not good and if I don’t replace and keep it out of the house I won’t eat it.
I’m grateful for food labels and I read my Parmesan crisps snacks are high in cholesterol so I’ll be 86ing those. After I finish the last bag.
I’m grateful for Minnie.
I’m grateful for Daisy and the purring tamping fest in the middle of the night and grateful I don’t think she drew blood.
I’m grateful for my daily gratitude practice it’s one of the only constants in my life. Other than Benson barking at the trucks driving by out back.
Ya he’s barking now. I’m grateful it’s not a busy street.

I’m grateful it’s Friday lol
I’m grateful I could give my mom gifts while away from work for her birthday yesterday
I’m grateful to be present in life today
I’m grateful to be clean
I’m grateful to hang out with a friend this weekend enjoy a meeting, and go to a horror circus after
I’m grateful I’m attempting to become a father in my 2 year old sons life in baby steps
Good morning, what an amazing sleep, I am so grateful for it. I am grateful I was able to doze back off for an hour after my 6 am yoga alarm went off. Friday isnt a 6 am yoga day!!!
I am feeling curious right off the bat this morning, I have some people pleasing thoughts circling in my noggin. I am grateful to recognize them and see them for what they are. I am grateful that I know what I need and I will work on not feeling bad about taking care of my needs over making other people happy. After I have been so sick, I need sleep and I do not sleep beside a snorer, that ends that conversation about company this weekend. I am grateful that when I just say shit it is so much easier than when I get lost in my head trying to figure out ways to work stuff out. I am grateful that my intuition tells me what G’s reaction will be and I can prepare myself for it ahead of time. Screw that, I just sent him a text, I dont need to sit in his weird energy. I am grateful I protect myself today.
I am looking forward to a day at the jewelry studio, its been a long time since I have spent a day there. I am grateful for all the gems I have to play with and the silver I have to craft. I am grateful for all the tools available at the studio for me to use for a small drop in fee. I am grateful for the sense of community I get when I spend time there.
I am grateful I feel better and that I feel hungry. Ravenous actually, its amazing. I am grateful my body is taking care of itself and that my wounded mind is leaving it alone. ![]()
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I got some things done. Well, there was nothing big on my list. ![]()
I am grateful I had the time to get my charger for the laptop. Otherwise, knowing myself it would have been an endless inner discussion when to go. Blaaaaa.
I am grateful I got this new puzzle. It’ll be definitely more fun then the other one.
I am grateful I have enough.
This is so sweet!
Good luck and much fun ![]()
