Good morning grateful friends! I’m back from vacation and back to routine.
I’m grateful vacation was a wonderful break from real life.
I’m grateful to have spent time with my Mom. Time is precious.
I’m grateful the weather there was perfect.
I’m grateful that even though there was alcohol in her house, I wasn’t tempted to drink. I’m grateful my mom doesn’t drink.
I’m grateful for my friend who took care of my cats while I was gone.
I’m grateful my coworker and her new baby are doing well despite being a couple weeks early.
I’m grateful I got to catch up with a friend from childhood and it’s always like we’ve never been apart.
I’m grateful there’s so much on here to catch up on, but I just jumped ahead. Hope I didn’t miss too much.
I’m grateful I have all of you to come back to.
Progress not perfection.
I am enough.

A Wednesday morning Gratitude…Happy Hump Day my sober friends 
I am so grateful for COFFEE - my dark roast heavenly blend of liquid gold. I am grateful that I still have enough to enjoy leisurely sipping after I chugged the first two cups. 
Grateful that I am feeling more like a living human now.
I am grateful that I am awake - alert and breathing clean fresh air. My throat is still sore but I did not spit up blood today so it may be healing.
I am so grateful for cooler weather approaching. Grateful that will be coming to us after some thunderstorms.
I am so grateful that I was able to get all my moving around work done yesterday. I was able to provide plenty of baked goods for the upcoming festival. So grateful that my sis and BIL are going to help so I do not have to try and handle it. The universe works in mysterious ways cause no way would I have been able to do stand all day and serve with a smile while running around in a small space
I am so grateful that I have PT today and Friday this week - I will be talking to them about the excessive pain level. They were already super gentle as she couldn’t really touch my skin due to extreme sensitivity. I am reading up on it and in order to get better I just may need to endure this for now. Shifting of bones is not going to be painless. I am praying now and preparing myself for whatever may be the next course. I know its all for my healing process - trying to focus on the end result.
I am so grateful that I am able to meditate and pray. Grateful that doing so releases many emotions and I am left feeling raw and vulnerable yet in a space of peace.
I am so grateful that the past week has not caused me to go into dark thinking even when i couldn’t do my practices to keep me in the light.
I am so grateful that we did get new phones - this was a nightmare process and I would not recommend dealing with Google for phone service. I may be old school but I need to go into a store and deal with a human face to face rather than spend hours on a phone spending 90% of that time on hold. Grateful that I was not the one that had to do this - my brother took care of it.
I am so grateful for my family - my HP and my ability to connect with both.
I am so grateful for TS family and community. Grateful that the veterans on this site provide so much inspiration and knowledge. Grateful for the newbies who we are able to support and who remind us why we do not want to repeat day 1. Grateful for each and everyone of us who help support each other throughout this journey.
I am just super grateful today to just be me!
Hoping that everyone has a wonderful addiction free day today! Sending you all so much LOVE

I’m grateful wifey got a docs appointment. First time in 8 years 
I’m grateful she asked me to take her.
I’m grateful for the last 5 days I’ve enjoyed with my wife.
I’m grateful when she talks about our travels and says oh that will be October I can drink again……… I have to admit my heart sinks.
I’m grateful I seriously just have to take it OFDAAT. I’m grateful I’m going to enjoy today.
I’m grateful I’ll enjoy today with or without her.
I’m grateful I got a lunch date Saturday with John.
Grateful to admit I’m nervous. The last time I went out with a guy…… anyone……without my wife 
was…….NEVER I seriously can’t remember.
I’m grateful I’m doing good. Currently.
I’m grateful I got dental and dermatologist appointments set up next week for our semiannual + checkups.
I’m grateful for my Tuesday night meeting.
I’m grateful for the Ol Burner.
I’m grateful for Daisy and Alice taking turns sleeping on my neck last night.
I’m grateful for technology and I can sit in the waiting room and share my gratitude with friends.
I’m grateful for cooler morning walks with Benson.
I’m grateful we’ll go out to lunch/brunch after this appointment. I’m grateful it’s what we do.
I’m grateful she’s asking me questions about drinking dreams. I’m grateful I’m consciously putting my iPad down in these moments to really listen to her when she’s talking about her newly days sober.
I’m grateful we shared looking at each others app formats.
I’m grateful the dinner I found on the internet yesterday was easy to make and delicious.
I’m grateful for my health.
I’m grateful I can hear and see and feel and taste and smell.
I’m grateful for the life I’ve lead so far.
Grateful for y’all.
Gratitude paints little smiley faces on everything it touches.

Today I’m again grateful for an ok day. I’m grateful that the dentist appointments are finished, I got my first toothbleaching today. Boy they look good! I’m grateful I was brave and treated myself to a complete inspection and necessary overhaul of my teeth when I found this wonderful dentist where they are so kind to angsty people like me I’m grateful life serves you everything at the right time
I’m grateful I met an old studyfriend by chance today, must be a year we last talked. I’m grateful my town is small enough to run into people and big enough to avoid people.
I’m grateful for shiatsu therapy today. I’m knakered. Tough stuff today. I’m grateful I rested for the rest of the day.
I’m grateful I’m already in bed, Missi beside me, book beside me, alarm set, ready to fall asleep whenever I want

I am grateful for a loving God who listens to my prayers. Once I surrendered my will to his my life has been easier. Amen.

I am grateful that I feel wiped out, it means energy is moving. I had my first EMDR session yesterday, it was interesting. I am grateful that when I experienced tonic immobility in the parking lot of the grocery store (after therapy) I was still able to talk. I am grateful G answered his phone.
I am having … hmmm I wouldnt say a difficult time but I might say I am resisting the words trauma and PTSD. I suppose my whole life I have just “sucked it up” so much that said “traumas” became deserving or even asked for. I am grateful that changes in perspective dont always happen overnight, and some may never happen at all. I am also grateful that labeling situations or incidents will not make or break my healing from them.
I am grateful that I can talk about how I feel today so that when the part of me who likes to cut shows up to relieve some pressure, I dont need her. I am grateful to understand why she is here though, and I am grateful for all the years shes protected me.

I am grateful that @Dazercat wife is not drinking and has gone for routine health care. Sending thoughts that she gets an A plus on a routine wellness exam and blood work and stuff to follow.
I remember Eric’s saying is JFT, Just For Today, and ODAAT. Big hugs, lots of love.

Today I am grateful that I have been able to mostly stick to my diet and meal prep more this week. I feel healthier and sticking to a routine makes me feel more like I am actually accomplishing something on a day to day basis.

Good morning grateful friends
I’m grateful I went to bed sober last night. Cravings were bad but I resisted.
I’m grateful nightmares aren’t real despite feeling that way.
I’m grateful I could get a doctor appt today to get some things checked out.
I’m grateful to be back home with my cats. And they let me sleep last night. They all definitely miss me when I’m away.
I’m grateful tomorrow is Friday and payday.
I’m grateful for this community.

I am enough.
I’m allowed to take up space.
My needs are valid.

Good morning friends,
I’m grateful I have some time this morning for coffee and gratitude on the porch swing. I’m grateful for the comfort of checking in with you all, and seeing others check in too. Even if it’s a struggle sometimes. I’m grateful it’s cooling down in the mornings here. I’m grateful I’ve been walking outside more lately. I’m grateful for the pretty and cheerful pink and purple flowers by my front door. I’m grateful my gratitude is simple today.

Today I’m grateful for…
TS, I’m well on my way and fully committed to sobriety,thanks to the boost I needed and got here.
My husband, who has had to step up and handle some of the daily chores I’ve done, due to a kitchen accident that has rendered me unable to do anything requiring two hands🙌
Not only is he a good cook, he’s a retired emergency department nurse, so I’m in good hands.
Speaking of hands, I’m grateful for them both. And fingers…fingers are awesome! Still have all ten, just mangled two of them…

@bootz So grateful that you are safe and not lying somewhere electrocuted. I get the feeling like you live off the grid in a remote location – is it possible to at least call/ text someone prior to attempting projects so that they can check in with you or come by if needed? I had to adopt that system when I lived alone (and I was not in a remote location) but I did have many scary moments of where the medical alert thingy would’ve been handy 
@pattycake ooh that is rough – grateful for your hubby to take care of you and help around the house. Grateful that you are all in tact and now healing.
Grateful for @soberbilly – grateful for his 500 days today and upbeat yet down to Earth attitude.
Grateful for @dazercat Eric’s wife is doing so well for dry September. Grateful for her honesty with the doctors. Grateful that Eric has so much sober time under his belt that he is able to be there for Kelly in whatever capacity she needs.
Thursday morning gratitude’s with my favorite sober companions!
I am so grateful for getting some sleep last night. It has left me feeling groggy and tired but i know that’s what happens when you finally sleep after long periods of not sleeping. It’s a new day 
I am so grateful for my amazing mother. She brought me a wooden chair and side table to help me sit comfortably. Sitting on the floor my knees start to hurt and the couch is a death trap and not good for the spine. She is fucking awesome (words can’t express) - brought me a lovely protein filled shake and anti oxidant smoothie. FIRST Coffee
I am so grateful that i did wake up and had a few seconds of pure peace and no pain. It was heaven and a reminder that i will get to that state - just need to keep living a healthy sober life.
I am so grateful the cooler weather has arrived - properly - yesterday it was cloudy but oh so fucking humid! Really was suffocating.
I am so grateful that I see so many people posting gratitude’s and check ins - love that this site is so welcoming and a safe haven for so many. Grateful I see Eric writing his Gratitude now
I am so grateful for my COFFEE - really, it is not just the boost i need but also a warm hug that brings me comfort.
I am so grateful that i have gotten some names of good doctors - will call to make appointments as my main doctor and Gyno are both jokes. I am one to stick with someone out of convenience and also think they should know what the hell they are doing but so many instances of their fuck ups and i have lost my patience and forgiveness towards them (not when i am suffering because of their ineptness).
I am so grateful for me going through what i am going through - it has helped all of us figure out a healthier way of living. We are more educated on the healing properties of foods / herbs and the magic they can perform. Oh yeah - and i don’t think I would ever have tried to quit my toxic lifestyle if I was still “feeling healthy”.
I am so grateful for my HP for being by my side. Grateful for seeing some progress in some areas. Grateful to know that everything takes time - may need to remind myself of this from time to time.
I am so grateful for this community and my connections I’ve made here. Grateful that we have all found this site and we are all on a journey of sobriety.
Have a wonderful addiction free day all you beautiful souls - sending you all much love
