Grateful today I go to the kidsā orientation at school. Clear eyes, clear mind, hopeful heart.
Grateful for my work, and to have a way to help support my family.
Iām grateful to God please help me abstain from my addictions while following your will just for today. Iām grateful for my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. Iām grateful I woke up on time and have arrived at work for 5:30, who am I. In the before times I was just going to bed, if I even slept. Iām grateful for the twelve steps and traditions. Iām grateful for music, creativity, humor and laughter.
God bless us all. &
Good morning to you friends! Iām grateful for a wonderful weekend, with snugglenaps, movie date, cheeseburgers, DND with friends, and a little bit of Zelda sneaked in. Iām grateful I brought a bunch of healthy snacks to DND and everyone loved them, and hopefully I can edge us away from pizza and donuts every time lol. Donāt get me wrong I love pizza and donuts but thereās a world of flavor out there. Iām grateful weāre leaving for our road trip on Friday, and weāre both looking forward to it, and we can bring the dogs. Iām grateful for a quiet bus ride to work, and hopefully a quiet day today so I can figure out what preparations I need to make for our trip. This quiet grey morning suits me just right for today.

Aaah Stella ā you are so beautiful my friend. So happy that this man can see all your amazingness and make you feel cherished. @lab Great job on your 660 days of sobriety! Lovely that you had such a beautiful day with family and celebrating your sonās wedding.
Monday morning gratitudeās ā sipping hot coffee in bed with my TS friends! can it get any better than this?
I am so grateful to wake up to 8 months of not touching alcohol or weed - it was a close call yesterday but you know better sense and will power won. Grateful to keep tacking on the days. Grateful that i do have bad days but i know they wonāt last and i also know how to navigate them without numbing myself.
I am so grateful for great tv shows to binge watch (the Ā½ hour shows are so much easier to blaze through )
I am so grateful for all of you here - so grateful to be on this journey with your struggles and triumphs. Grateful to not be alone and more grateful to be surrounded by people that understand and genuinely sympathize.
I am so grateful for my beautiful mother ā sending over a delicious dinner for me cause I just did not have the strength. Grateful for gentle symptoms showing me which foods iām still not able to digest yet. Grateful for the abundance of food options available. Even with a limited diet - i do not feel bored
I am so grateful that my brother fixed the dishwasher yesterday. Its funny that i havenāt used a dishwasher in over 20 years until i moved in here and now i actually missed it.
I am so grateful that my meme buddy is up and at it ā let the fun times begin OH i see itās gonna be that kind of Monday
I am so grateful for crying and laughing - for feeling all the emotions and as CJ says its ok to not be ok. I am grateful for constantly reminding myself that i have been through worse and this is just a stepping stone to being even better.
I am so grateful for music and dance (even if it is seated) - grateful for the way my soul feels alive when the right beat hits.
I am so grateful for feeling at peace and oh so light when i practice my meditation / prayer rituals. Grateful that sometimes i do scream out during my prayers and release my frustrations and anger. Grateful that my HP understands that i am releasing and not blaming.
I am so grateful a day full of possibilities. Grateful for 2nd chances. Grateful for harnessing positivity to allow for healing. Grateful that i was able to sense the signs of going in a negative spiral and stopped that train from taking off. Grateful for more coffee - the smell is so heavenly entoxicating.
I am so grateful for TS! I have found my home and grateful for all the great friendships / company
Have a wonderfully positively charged day all you beautiful souls! Sending you all much love
I am grateful for making it through another weekend sober. I am grateful tomorrow will be 30 days. I am grateful for all of the rain we got this weekend.
Iām grateful for another day. God yesterday blew chunks
Iām grateful for my Al-Anon slip or relapsed yesterday and also realize I had a headache most of the day and Iām able to cut myself some slack. Guess what? I wasnāt perfect!!
Iām grateful I woke up at 5:30 no headache with cats and dog and my pixie shot and coffee.
Grateful I sat with my coffee and just did some deep breathing thanks @Soberbilly not a meditation but a minute or 2 of just deep breathing.
Iām grateful I did the serenity prayer and continue to do so.
Iām grateful maybe I found some compassion this morning and asked the wife if she wanted to get up at 6:30 for a cool mountain wet after rain walk. Iām grateful I know she would LOVE this and wants to do this but her addict is keeping her in bed these days and I know in my heart sheās missing out and the real person in there would love to walk in the cool, after rain, wet mountain trail and air.
Iām grateful if she said no itās ok.
Iām grateful she is up and trying.
Iām grateful the junk hauler is coming today to haul off some old ripped to shreds cat condos and Minnieās red bench and a few other things. The red bench has seen some better days and itās time to let it go. But she loved that red bench.
Iām grateful my lousy headache was on a Sunday and itās going to be a much better day today even if it is a Monday.
Iām grateful for Mr. Cleanās Magic Erase. It cleaned all the dog food can scratches, or marks, off the pantry shelves and stains from the bottom of my frying pans in the cabinet drawers. I am very big on first impressions and now if you open my pantry door youāll see nice clean shelves and I donāt have to paint them. Iām so grateful I donāt have to pain those shelves. Trust me. I donāt want me painting.
Iām grateful I got a meeting tonight and wifey is cooking dinner or we can eat the extra dinner I made last night to use up the food around here.
Iām grateful this moving hell is getting closer.
Iām grateful I got 5 more days and Iām way ahead of the game.
Iām grateful for yāall. You guys. Youāz
āGratitude paints little smiley faces on everything it touches.ā
Iām grateful for this statement as I have been feeling overwhelmed at times lately, comparatively speaking I would get even more overwhelmed before(somehow)
Congrats on the successful navigation of all the joys of a wedding in recovery
Iām so grateful Iāve come back after making the choice to drink, short-lived thankfully. Itās not even the amount I drank, which wasnāt overboard, but that I havenāt stayed accountable to myself that is the worst. I threw away anything in the house that could be tempting, have gone to 2 online meetings already today, and am fully back.
Iām grateful I found The Luckiest Club as Tempest is merging with another sobriety support platform which I donāt love (yet). But I do love TLC.
Iām grateful I have some excellent books, like Push Off from Here & Quit Like a Woman.
Iām always grateful for my animals, they keep me grounded and moving forward.
Iām very grateful for this community; what a nice surprise to hop back in and see a message from @JazzyS checking on me and others
This Naked Mind, We are the Luckiest and Push Off from Here are my favorites so farā¦so many quotes and thoughts I carry with me. In fact there was a part of the last that I actually cried to - what a strange thing it is to have someone write in a book something that makes you feel seen, understood. Cried and cried while I listened to the audiobook in my work commute.
Grateful to have found these gems that helped me and others so much Welcome back!
Today Iām grateful I can sit out this heatwave in my cozy house and do a real staycation. Basic chores of course but nothing more. Just me relaxing, chilling, napping, cuddling cats, watching TV or reading, watering the sad relics of plants in my garden. Oh my gosh it IS relaxing to do NOTHING and just BE at home. I have to be careful, I think I could adopt this lifestyle for everyday! Dreaming about a fairy granting me wishes is allowed as are daydreams (all always leading to a nap ). Iām grateful my brain and mind went to vaccation mode allthough Iām surrounded by my everyday life. Iām grateful this can be a result from working on me, working on letting go - also old patterns, and staying kindly in the present.
Iām grateful for aircondition and laughter. Iām grateful my cats want to share my breakfast ham. Iām grateful I can stay inside and donāt leave the house. Iām grateful for all my blessings and my mental health being a lot better thanks to the changed meds
Thank you, Iām very happy to be back I agree, push off from here is a great book. Iām reading it through once and then Iāll go back and do the exercises
Iām grateful I had so many gratitudes to catch up on today.
Iām grateful to read about the happy news people have to share, about special events and achievements and just being, and finding contentment in that being
Iām grateful for swimming. I think I have found an excercise I can continue at home after having to give up anything but gentle walking. This will help my mental health immensely and get those good olā happy chems firing up in my brain again.
Iām grateful for my family.
Iām grateful my dad has come through his first hip replacement op. ok.
Iām grateful this means he canāt drink for a while and canāt get out to buy drink.
Iām grateful for delicious nutritious food.
Iām grateful I found a traditional Croatian cookbook today and look forward to trying some new recipes when Iām home.
Iām grateful for the beautiful sunrises and sunsets over mountains and the sea Iāve been lucky to see, Iād never have caught the sunrise if I was still drinking.
Iām grateful Iāve been missing my cat and dog a lot todayā¦only a few days until I get to see them again.
Iām grateful to think about the welcome I will get from them.
Iām grateful to all of you wonderful sober guys and gals. Keep being awesome.

Iām grateful for another day sober.
Iām grateful for central AC as it climbs to 100Ā° all week.
Iām grateful my insurance finally approved my new medication. Fingers crossed that it helps.
Iām grateful my doctor will monitor me closely as the medication can be habit forming. We talked through all the risks v benefits.
Iām grateful that this time next week Iāll be on a plane to Massachusetts and cooler weather.
Iām grateful Iām learning to give myself grace when Iām overwhelmed and frustrated with my brain.
Im grateful for memes and bad dad jokes.

thanks 
for a cool mountain wet after rain walk. Iām grateful I know she would LOVE 
and a few other things. The red bench has seen some better days and itās time to let it go. But she loved that red bench.
I agree, push off from here is a great book. Iām reading it through once and then Iāll go back and do the exercises 
Stay cool!
