Good morning friends,
I’m grateful I slept pretty good, and today already feels better than yesterday. I’m grateful I’ve still got a slice of lemon pie if I need it 
. I’m grateful the thought of actually drinking doesn’t really cross my mind anymore- it’s more gratitude that I never have to do that again. I’m grateful dinner is already in the crockpot. I’m grateful my sons last driving lesson is scheduled, and if he doesn’t pass, we’ll just do some more classes. I’m grateful the herbs I’m growing are doing so good that I will have to figure out something to do with them. Growing flowers and houseplants is pretty cool- growing something you can eat is really cool!
Everyone have a wonderful day❤️

Good morning grateful friends! I’m grateful for the rainy morning excuse to snooze a little later. Grateful that Buster and I had a good first puppy socialization/obedience class last night–he really did behave himself and keep his foolishness to a minimum, so we’ve got those guys fooled. 
Grateful to see this road worker carrying on and laughing and taking pics of his crew in this chilly downpour, a good reminder that attitude is everything and the world is what you make of it.

I’m grateful to get around to my gratitude list.
I’m grateful for my meeting last night.
I’m grateful I got to share my wonderful upcoming trip to London with my new friends.
I’m grateful I got to share about my fear of the “what ifs………… I’m grateful I got to share that I’m terrified and blessed to be traveling with my wife. I’m grateful I know I got to live life. I’m grateful I have a healthy fear of the “what ifs…… I’m grateful I am not going to live in fear of future “what ifs………. I’m grateful if and or when any of my “what ifs……… happen I will deal with it then. And I’ll be able to deal with it sober and calm like. I’m grateful I get to have my feelings and I’m grateful I’m learning to be able to let go of them.
I’m grateful I paid the extra money for Insight Timer and I can download and access any of my favorite mantras and meditations anywhere I am. Internet or not.
I’m grateful I got another doctors appointment today. Hopefully maybe the last one. I’m grateful the doctors office is by Chompies and I’m going to see my old friend Reuben after. But I won’t be seeing Latke.
I’m grateful I’m up real early these cool desert mornings. I get a lot done and still have time for my power walk before my appointment.
I’m grateful my new deck shoes seem to fit nicely.
I’m grateful for hard conversations where I express myself to my wife and how I feel. And what I thought you meant. And how next time we can both improve on our communication.
I’m grateful I have my wife with me today.
I’m grateful Minnie finally settled down after her walk. This old doggie Alzheimer’s isn’t for sissies.
Grateful I always get to share here.
“The real gift of gratitude is that the more grateful you are, the more present you become.” OFDAAT right

I’m grateful that the sun is out and it looks like we may have a clear sky tonight. I’m grateful I can set up my equipment in my bedroom instead of outside to look at Mercury tonight, and that my bedroom window also faces protected greenland, which is less light interference to deal with.
@Dazercat Congrats on your 1200 days, and I’m so happy to see where you’re at now with having a meeting group you can go to.
@maxwell 50 days is awesome! Congrats!

I’m grateful to God for guiding me through half my day and pray for help with the rest of it. I’m grateful for All my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful to have attended well over 140 meetings or groups in the last 70 days. I’m grateful that not being in school or work allows me to try and attend three meetings a day. Morning, noon and night, just like I did when I was an over the top, all in, daily abuser of almost any unhealthy substance or behavior you can think of. Half measures availed me nothing but chronic relapsing, so all in I go. I’m grateful I had a pretty solid and at times fairly contented stretch of clean and sober time from Jan. 17, 2020 to Aug. 17, 2022. I’m grateful a large portion of that time (apr.2020-june2022) I lived in a sober living home owned by a treatment center. I’m grateful my new home is supportive as well, but, only as much as I allow it, really, just like anywhere I live. I’m grateful the sun is shinning. I’m grateful that its time for grief support group I have been attending on Wednesday afternoons.
God bless you all.

p.s. I think you’re doing great, thanks for being here. Ya you!!

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful for the nice walks I did today. Learned that the trees that I see here so often are olives. I slowly digest that I am south of the Alps somehow. Citrus 
are on the trees. Blackberries don’t lose their leaves. It’s all so strange. Palm trees everywhere. Rosmarin everywhere.
I am grateful for nice colleagues.
I am grateful I can change my routine even though at first I think I cannot.
I am grateful I can discover new things even without a car.
I am grateful my toe is not hurting after yesterday’s run.
I am grateful I have enough.
Edit: I am grateful for a nice zoom meeting with 3 of my friends from highschool. We started this back during COVID when our annual Christmas get together wasn’t happening and now we do this. It’s so nice to see people and especially listening to my friend living in Bolivia.
2 of my friends were drinking wine. I just went to bed and thought: how amazing is it that I don’t drink anymore. In this situation it would have been such an obvious thing to drink, every fucking night.
Bonne nuit.

Thank you. It took me way too long to realize that a little better is all I am capable of and, major learning point for me for me, all I should ever expect from others.

I am grateful to be watching tv in bed with my kiddo on her ipad beside me. Last nights meeting was great, like all meetings but it was a powerful reminder of all I have to be grateful for. I am grateful that my child is not in active addiction, that she is not on the streets, hasnt gone missing and isnt selling her body for dope. I recieved some shitty news last night, we lost another young member, 21 years old, she was a real gem. Its so hard to lose all these kids, and they are dropping like fucking flies. I am grateful that the young girl (19) that I took with me to the meeting last night survived last nights relapse… she just couldnt make it through the night. I am grateful I made it through mine.
@ELY83 congrats on your baby boy, I am grateful he is gaining weight.

Grateful for the warmth of the coffee cup in my hands. Grateful yesterday is past and today is a new chance to get things right. Grateful to be watching the 3 squirrrel youngsters chasing each other around the tree in front of my house. Grateful for music and the way it moves through my body. Grateful to read all your gratitudes.

Good morning grateful friends.
I’m grateful for another day sober.
I’m grateful for hot coffee to start my day. Particularly since I’m not sleeping well.
I’m grateful I see my doctor first thing this morning. These headaches are awful and I’m not coping well. I’m worried that if I don’t get relief soon it could threaten my sobriety. But for now I’m committed to not drinking today and tomorrow. ODAAFT.
I’m grateful Beans’ trip to the vet yesterday went well. It was just for a rabies shot and check up. She recently turned 10, and is doing really well. It’s Tessie’s turn for a checkup next week.
