Congratulations on 11 months @Cjp 
Today I’m grateful I met someone I hadn’t seen in years at the grocery store. We chatted spontaneously for half an hour, it was so nice.
I’m grateful I fetched some herbs, flowers and potting soil. I’m grateful I rested after lunch and enjoyed a relaxing afternoon. I’ll plant them tomorrow.
I’m grateful I’ll be in bed early with my cats. I’m grateful for this nice day.

I am grateful I can soon go to bed.
I am grateful I have almost everything packed.
I am grateful for a long hat shower. I remember when @Dazercat made it to one of his tools. It was actually great realizing that I can have a hot shower when I want to. And I allow myself to exceed it over the get wet, shampoo, rinse, 2 min shower.
I am grateful to be tired.
I am grateful for some nice neighbours.
I am grateful I got a tiny workout in.
I am grateful I don’t have to rush tomorrow.
I am grateful I have enough.
Oh, and I am so grateful that I didn’t have one bottle of wine finished by now as I would have had to calculate when I wanted to leave tomorrow and hoping that the hangover wouldn’t be too bad for driving and so on and on.

I’m greatful to have feelings. Some are tough but I’d rather deal with them sober then numb them under the influence
It’s good to be alive today

Grateful another sober day is over and I’m in bed.
I’m grateful for getting fed up with drinking, I’m grateful I was sick and tired of it. I’m so grateful I made the decision to stop, it was definitely the best decision I’ve made (actually the second best decision - first = getting divorced) I just keep thinking lately how relieved I am that I stopped. I’m grateful I feel so free, I feel in charge of my life, I’m in control now, no shackles, no weight on my shoulders, just me living my life as it should be lived

I’m grateful wifey and I talked about the elephant in the room.
I’m grateful for the first half of that Brené Brown podcast. Maybe wifey is doing the best she can 
Maybe I got a tiny bit of self righteousness. 
and then some 
and then some more 
Thanks @LAB

Today I am grateful for a restful day yesterday and restorative sleep. I am grateful for time to myself to “regroup” and take care of many loose ends today. I am grateful for meetings and shares that help me to feel a lot less alone in this journey. I am grateful for boundaries and the ability to turn away from those who are unstable and only want to project their hurt onto others. I am grateful for being in the presence of a strong couple all day Friday who are a great example of what a loving partnership looks like. I didn’t see any of that growing up and have looked for those truly healthy relationships throughout adulthood so as to learn from them. I am grateful for a pretty day ahead and for the chance to step away and take a walk with my friend. I am grateful for friends who are satisfied with simply taking a walk together instead of get-togethers always having to involve food or dessert that I really don’t need and costs $. Wishing all a peaceful day.

Missed my 90min intention meditation. Yeah, i was bummed. But made the most of it and came home and did a guided meditation on intentions. I was inspired to sign up for some hatha yoga classes. (I used to have a practice but it fell off when drinking came first)
Im excited and nervous for my first class today…baby steps

Good morning grateful friends
I’m grateful for 85 days sober.
I’m grateful the sun is shining.
I’m grateful the pain today isn’t as bad as yesterday.
I’m grateful for quiet early mornings with coffee and a cat on my lap. He’s purring extra loud. 
I’m grateful for this community as my support group. I love the diversity in experiences and sober journeys. There is no one size fits all way to do this.
I’m grateful for health insurance so I can catch up on preventative screenings (dermatologist this week for a routine skin cancer check).
I’m grateful for the start of baseball season.
I’m grateful I can focus on baby steps and taking things ODAAT.

I’m grateful for this. All of this. The good, the bad, the ugly and the beautiful.
I’m grateful for you. I could not have done this alone. I don’t think anyone can.
Much, much love to you all

Oh yes. Working from the place that everyone is doing their best is a blessing and a challenge all at once.
For years I have been committed to that concept in regards to my students and their parents. I have not been able to do that with too many other people. Perhaps because it is my professional role and I’ve been able to compartmentalize.
I’ve been working on getting to that thinking in regards to my mother. I keep telling myself and my siblings that she is elderly and is not going to change. Heading toward assuming positive intent is my next step on that work.
Practicing non-judgement and compassion is related to this, and is something I’ve worked on for years.
But, it is hard. Especially when “evidence” points me toward judgement. I’m struggling with this in regards to some coworkers these days. And I’m trying to let go.
Another challenge on all this is finding the balance between assuming best intentions and enabling. That is very hard in family relationships. And marriage.
Thanks for listening. I’m really just processing my thinking here. Most likely I will listen to these episodes again and keep thinking.
Enjoy your Sunday!
