This is a little bit of a rough morning so far, so gratitude is a little harder to dig out, but here we go: I’m grateful I woke up without toxic slithery alcohol feelings in my tummy, and I’m grateful I don’t have a pounding headache. I’m grateful I have plans to see my bestie over lunch today! I’m grateful I’ve built the habit of getting all my morning stuff ready the night before so that even when it’s difficult it’s still as easy as I could make it. I’m grateful I made it to the bus on time, so I could have this time reading all the posts here and refocusing myself towards an attitude of gratitude.

I’m grateful I managed to shower today. Baby steps.
I’m grateful I don’t hate my job and it’s generally low-stress.
I’m grateful I’m learning to let go of things I can’t control. I still really struggle with this, but I’m learning.

Afternoon gratitude
Grateful although I am waiting in for deliveries today I got my butt up and did an hour online fitness workout.
Grateful that all the exercise is actually helping me sleep, it makes me think if I don’t keep up I may end up not sleeping again 
so yes grateful I did it, even at home.
Grateful all my washing is done 
doing it every night really makes life easy as it’s dry by the morning.
Grateful that if I don’t tidy around today it all still looks the same and is clean.
Grateful for late breakfast earlier.
Grateful I managed to get it for a walk this morning and send off the few returns that needed to be sent.
Grateful to be sober so very much.
Grateful to understand that when things feel like they are overwhelming most of the time its just that I’m caught up in the middle of actually sorting them out and dealing with them. Not that everything is actually going wrong, I have to go through it to get through it.

I am grateful for the nice ride I just had.
I am grateful we are working well together as a team. Everyone on out floor was listening to a fight two colleagues had. 
That was awful.
I am relieved that just before my meeting with my bosses the lady in France came back to me with an apartment I was expecting. Tiny, tiny, tiny and equipped. People can come visiting me sleeping standing on the balcony. But honestly it’s way better than the shit they suggested before.
I am grateful my boss agreed that I might need two days to go down there and sleep somewhere in Italy or so.
I am grateful I slept so fine tonight.
I am grateful I have enough.
I am grateful that I made peace somehow that some people are not empathic. None of my business and it’s not my task toake them understand.

Thank you for the hugs @Soberbilly I needed them 
Today I’m grateful for 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep A blessing.
I’m grateful I forced myself to some office work, doing calls, mails and finances.
I’m grateful I’m on my sofa crying my eyes off. Today 11 years ago I bought the farm. I was such an idiot to include him in the contract. I loved him, I had faith in him and in our future, we wanted to live there until we are old and grey. I’m grateful I was there today. It’s such a beautiful place. I’m grateful he wasn’t there. I’m grateful I pray that he gets what he deserves and what he needs. And the same for me. This whole situation is heartbreaking for me. Tomorrow is a new day and today I go to bed sober. Soon. And I will fucking not call him because my fucking codependent voice can shut the fuck up. I’m tired, it was a good day and I will not ruin it by behaving codependent. Nope, we don’t do that anymore. I’m grateful for we don’t do that anymore

I’m grateful to manage a full day of travelling without being overly tempted by the alcohol always on offer.
I’m grateful for HALT which made me drink water and eat a kitkat rather than head to the bar.
I’m grateful to this forum for helping me decide that no, I am not going to the conference drinks event tonight because I don’t need to test my willpower like that just yet. 21 days is something, but I’m not ready to face a drinks event on fizzy water yet.
A movie and an early night it is ahead of two busy days at the conference I’m here for. A clear head, hotel gym in the morning followed by breakfast with friends.
