Iām so fucking grateful today.
So much easier when youāre not in pain.
Iām grateful when I spilt most of my coffee 
I still had plenty left. Grateful the drawers in the kitchen island close tightly so no coffee leaked into them. Grateful I was going to do the floors anyway since Iām feeling better and weāre leaving tomorrow.
Grateful Daisy is warming my lap.
Grateful she just left 
Iām grateful for my Twinnie. @Its_me_Stella
Calling you out my dear. Ya you 
I know you been working on some serious stuff. And I donāt know what to say. But I see you. And I see you still helping others around here. Especially me. Inadvertently, yesterday. Iām grateful for all of your post and how you keep recovery simple. Iām grateful Iām not fucked up or maybe not as sick as I thought. āIām hurting.ā Ya I fucking am!! Iām grateful when I see you post, I read it. Iām grateful I donāt tell people what they should do. But if youāre not reading what Stella posts. No matter what thread. Youāre missing out. BIG TIME. love you 
Iām grateful Iām getting out of my funk.
Iām grateful for a super nights sleep.
Iām grateful Minnie ate this morning.
Iām grateful I missed my meeting yesterday for my wifeās hair appointment that she thought was tomorrow. Someone had to be home to sign for Aliceās controlled substance.
Iām grateful I didnāt say well, if you werenāt drinking so much maybeā¦ā¦ā¦.
Ya I thought it. And thatās ok. Itās been a rough week.
Iām grateful I stick to the facts.
Iām grateful the fact isā¦ā¦.she wrote the hair appointment down on the wrong date a long time ago.
Iām grateful Iām happy to see her this morning.
Iām grateful I paused to listen to her about her nightmarish dreams. What is it about you ladies and your nightmares. My wife always has them. Iām grateful I sleep like a fucking yule log most nights.
Iām grateful I hear Alice purring on her heated bed near me.
Iām grateful wifeyās been doing some vacuuming.
Iām grateful sheās been cleaning the toilets.
Iām grateful she was very considerate and concerned about me missing my meeting yesterday when she took off for her hair appointment. Iām grateful I didnāt go to my meeting early yesterday or I would not have been able to help her out like I did.
Iām grateful we had fun watching Wanda Sykes with Jazzy last night 
Iām grateful she made it through the whole show. Iām grateful the last couple of days I can say IT DOESNāT MATTER if she makes it through the whole show. Im grateful Iām sober. And THAT MATTERS!
Iām grateful I hope I can learn from this week.
Iām grateful besides knowing āthis too shall pass.ā I can know sometimes āIām hurting.ā And ya know what 
maybe sheās hurting too 
Iām grateful 
For all of you 
I bow down to pray
I try to make the worst seem better
Lord, show me the way
To cut through all his worn out leather
Iāve got a hundred million reasons to walk away
But baby, I just need one good one to stay
Million Reasons

@i.cant.we.can Hope you have a fantastic day on the floor. Yes ā I do need to be aware of stress. I sometimes donāt realize that I am stressed until itās too late. Trying to be more mindful of myself these days and listen carefully to what my mind and body are saying.
Interesting ā¦ Iām sure someoneās thought of a way to make this happen. 
@clarity WOW ā Iād be terrified and amazed all at once
@dazercat I am so glad that you are feeling better today (all around) and not in pain. Wanda was the perfect distraction for me and I did fall asleep 45 min in (so 15 min to go) but I did sleep with laughter in my heart. So Iām very grateful 
I do have to agree with you Eric - I love reading @Its_me_Stella posts!! One of the many people here that Iāve fallen in love with.
Happy Wednesday morning my lovely sober friends.
I am so grateful that I was able to wake up and get to work on time even with my lack of sleep. I am groggy and fighting the pain but living among the living so yeah life is good
I am so grateful that I am getting a little more comfortable with driving the van - my goodness - my depth perception sucks! Luckily when Iām backing out no one is around so I can go at a snails speed and not cause myself anxiety or anyone / anything harm
I am so grateful that our first festival is this Friday and I feel totally ready. A little nervous as itās supposed to be 91 degrees and I am not good with heat and worse with working in heat and serving hot food - YIKESā¦ it will be fun regardless (will keep adding ice to my bra if needed to keep my body temp down 
It is the first day to kick off pride month so The Pride Festival is one of my favorite to be a part of.
I am so grateful that my sister and her hubby will drive to Detroit to help us on Sunday for our main festival (this one is once a year - THANK GOD and huge ā It will be exhausting but we always make it through
I am so grateful that we can go back to just our normal busy after Sunday - we have decided to only do these two and a third fest in Sept as we are just 4 people and donāt want any of us to burn out.
I am so grateful that I will find time to meditate and pray today (it is not coming so naturally these days - I do find that when my pain and lack of sleep increase my mind does not automatically try to connect with my higher power - I am grateful for realizing this and making sure to put in extra effort on those days.
I am so grateful for my family and their loving support. Grateful for my friends for understanding that I am forever here to talk but at the moment can not meet in real life as I only have so much energy
I am so grateful for my higher power - I do know everything happens for a reason and everyone heals in different ways and my time will come - I just need to keep doing what I"m doing. A friendly reminder as I do tend to start comparing my rate of healing to others and that is not fair at all.
I am so grateful for this lovely community - my own virtual family - showing me so much love / comfort and accepting me and so many more with such open arms / hearts and showing absolutely no judgement. So much gratitude for you all and this thread.
Have a wonderful day friends - sending much love

Today Iām grateful that my old boy is home again. Anaesthesia with 17 is no walk in the park. His teeth are ok again. His heart needs medication. Iāll see if I can give him the meds. I donāt want to stress him and that he flees from me. We will try and see. My loved old boy 
Iām grateful for vets. Iām grateful for food delivery service. Iām grateful I love to read. Iām grateful for my reliable car and my cozy home. Iām grateful for HALT, I feel lonely and tired.

Iām grateful that work went really well and that my efforts over the last few years pays off when it comes time to learn new things. Iām grateful I can stop and ground myself through breathe and prayer, anytime, anywhere. Iām grateful my former sponsor celebrated 8 years sober tonght at our homegroup.

Edit to add a prayer I havenāt wrote one lately ā¦
Dear God,
I offer this prayer of thanks for today and ask for help in allowing me to sleep well and awake recharged. Please watch over and keep safe all my family and friends, wherever they are. I ask that you shine your healing light through me once more, to lessen my pain and keep my darkness at bay. Teach me to use the light to find my way when I feel lost and how to use it to help others. Thank you for loving me and know I love you. Please help wash away all my defects. I offer control back to you for I canāt do this alone, nor do I want to. In your name I pray and remain your humble, loyal and loving servant. Amen
p.s. Thanks for all the sunshine lately, if you could throw in just a little breeze thatād be great

I am really grateful today for staying sober last two days. Stressful and full of anxiety. Day 17 and found what are major triggers for me. Wish to avoid in the future but find may have to learn some behaviors to overcome the stress as somethingās you cannot avoid in life. I did stand up and express my discomfort a couple of times only to explain my rudeness. Admitting my annoyance and blaming sobriety.

Amen. Grateful for you Brian and all the gratidudes and dudettes. I love you brother.
Normally I would post this on the meditation thread but this feels like the right thread this moment. Namaste
Grateful I see my sprouts in a few days. Grateful my daughter posted a couple of videos on social media of my Madi at her vpk graduation last night. Over the moon grateful that my daughter shared that when she put Madi to bed she said pop pop is coming for a few days Sunday and that she is excited to see me. Grateful how that fills me with love.
I donāt see how this day could get any better and itās only 6:30a.m. but imma try for more. Grateful i have tres meetings today. Letās slay the day soberly yāall. God guru and Self are One

Good morning grateful friends,
Iām grateful for another day sober. Iām proud of the progress Iāve made this year.
Iām grateful nightmares arenāt real and start to fade when I get up.
Iām grateful I have a promising interview today. I have very mixed feelings about moving. We talked about that in therapy yesterday and that helped. The pros outweigh the cons. The logistics of relocating is the most daunting part.
Iām grateful for the final episode of Ted Lasso. Sad itās over but they did a good job wrapping things up. It was such a heartwarming show. Made me think about where āhomeā is. And wish I had the kind of friendships they all had.
Iām grateful for mornings with cats and coffee.
Progress not perfection.
I am enough just how I am.

Iām not sure how many days now Iāve been writing my gratitudes now but Iāve been finding myself walking around picking things to be grateful for throughout my dayā¦
Grateful for this thread and that I found TS, jeez 4 years ago, I canāt imagine who I would be without this place.
Grateful for washers, dryers, hot glue guns, dish washers, deep freezers, air fryers, and all the smart people who invented them.
Grateful I discovered meditation, I did a nice 14 minute one that re aligned me with my source yesterday. (It was a @Soberbilly recommendation 
) also Madi is adorable!
Grateful for my hobbies.
Grateful that I just remembered I need to do more yoga and visit my grandma.
Grateful for summer break and relaxing mornings, no morning hustle and bustle.
@Bootz tthank you! I am in South Carolina, the land of bugs and sweet tea, haha! Iām on my moms 39 acres in a town of 16,841 I moved here 10 months ago from Las Vegas. Which reminds me of a gratitudeā¦

@CJP wow- i love counting in months. Was thinking it was weird that after 1 year the next milestone was another year. You are doing amazingly well - keep up the hard work!
A sunny morning gratitude - happy Thursday my sober friendsā¦
I am so grateful for being waking up today sober and hangover free. Some close calls last night but hey I did not cave.
I am so grateful that the week is flying by in a sense and I am not too worried - been a bit absent minded this week (not sure if itās my head fog or because of the holiday) but no harm done - i was able to get what i needed done in the nick of time
I am so grateful that I have successfully cancelled an standing weekly order for a local cafe - it was a small order and was causing me more stress and anxiety so for my sanity I have dropped this from my plate- grateful that I can do so and not have to worry
I am so grateful that I will get to see my sister this Sunday while we work the festival. Her schedules are always so busy and summer time is craziest so I cherish the few times we do get to connect (we do get on each others nerves as sisters do so I do hope this will be a pleasant get together as I am missing her something fierce lately).
I am so grateful that my hot coffee is still comforting me and has kicked in enough to give me my energy needed to attack the day
I am so grateful for my family - I donāt know where I would be without their love and support
I am so grateful for all the friends iām making here (itās hard for me to fathom how iāve made so many great relationships in such a short period of time) You all ROCK and are giving me a healthy foundation for my recovery
I am grateful that I just realized that I did not wake up meditating and have not been silently doing so in the background so need to get my ass back to meditating / praying immediately
I am so grateful for my higher power for his gentle reminders that I am still healing and have a ways to go (not a punishment for my past but a repairing of the wounds).
I am so grateful for this site, the community and all that it provides me
Have a fabulous day everyone - sending much love
