@Its_me_Stella I see your celebration has already begun. I’m sooo grateful to have gotten to know you on this journey. I’m grateful to be trudging this road of happy destiny with you. I’m grateful for your wealth of experience and knowledge. I’m just grateful for you period! You’re such an inspiration to many of us. A beautiful person inside and out! I’m not so grateful that we can’t celebrate you in person but I’m grateful to celebrate from afar. Love you!
Happy Birthday and Congratulations on 4 hard earned years!

Thank you @kasc
I’m glad you’re here.
Welcome @Spidey
I hope to see you both around on this gratitude thread. It’s been a great way to start my day and probably my strongest tool that helps keep me sober ODAAT.
🙏🏻❤

Yeah HAPPY BIRTHDAY & SOBERVERSARY @Its_me_Stella 🎶🎵🎊🎉
Welcome to the 50s Club 😊
Did you notice any spontaneous mutations? A new _cronck_ when getting up? Just joking, I’m happy to celebrate with you 🤗💫🧚♀️💃
Today I’m grateful I slept 3/4 of the day. So tired. I’m grateful the headache and sore throat feel a bit better. I’m grateful the test says I’m only slightly infectious anymore . It will take time to fully heal. I’m grateful I take this time, not only because I have no other option but because I feel I need this healing process not only physically. This feels like a lesson in accepting life and limitations as they are. Without nagging. I’m grateful I have everything I need, my snuggling cats, soup, tea, sleep, meds. ODAAT 🙏

@erntedank so grateful that you are feeling better. Love that your cats did not “acupuncture your ass” 😆 Made me laugh so hard last night!

> I’m grateful to not be in pain all the time be it hungover, dental, spiritual, mental, back pain. I’m grateful for the just for today reading and that God gives me the courage to try and follow it.
WOW – this was powerful Brian – grateful for your words and do wish the pain to be lifted for you in all aspects of your life.
@sunshineontheinside so great to see you on the Gratitude thread. This thread has helped me so much on my journey. Even when I can’t come here to write out my gratitude’s, I find reading others is inspiring and uplifting. SO glad that you were able to get to a meeting and were so lovingly treated. So much love and connection with fellow members here and in real life. Keep going strong my friend – is today your 1 week milestone (if I calculated correctly)? 🎉 👏
@frazzetta grateful for your compassion and understanding. Not sure I would be so at ease with the blood draw situation. Grateful that you are ok and did not bleed out. I did love the line about “a smile lurking around under my face skin for no reason, even this early in the morning!” Keep being amazing Jenny!
@Sasxoxo Missing you lovely friend - hope you are well 🤗
Friday afternoon gratitiude’s
I am so grateful to be alive. Grateful to be breathing without wheezing. Grateful for fresh clean air. Grateful for ability to walk and move.
I am so grateful that i was able to get up for my morning cleanse and got to spend time with my mom. I really do look forward to it - will be even more grateful when we can go back to our morning coffee time 😉
I am so grateful that I am comfortable enough to say that i will not be able to mingle this weekend (hope i can stick to it) - my sis and bil have decided to visit for Sat / Sun and my brother has invited friends for NYE. We have been hosting NYE and i thought we were going to skip this year. Grateful that he does not expect me to do anything for prep.
I am so grateful that i will have my parents house to escape to if it does get to be a bit too much.
I am so grateful for my new mouth appliance. So weird how it shifts my jaw forward at night… really awkward in the morning. Grateful they have given me another bite piece to get my jaw to shift back in the morning. i am grateful that although the pain is still severe the popping of the joint and the lockjaw has reduced significantly.
I am so grateful that we have a zoom invite from our Sangha to do our meditation / prayers together. Grateful it is not an ungodly hour like 3 am like we used to do (time for silence and reflection- very peaceful but so tiring) … will hope to be up and alert by 7 tomorrow. Grateful that this may be a weekly practice.
I am so grateful that i have enough energy to get up and take a shower. Hopefully will get some work done afterwards.
I am so grateful that i was able to take a few hours this morning to cut my nails. had neglected them for past 3 days and crazy how quickly they grown.
I am so grateful for this wonderful space for all of us to come and connect. A space where we can support each other through the rough moments and the where we can celebrate the milestones and happy moments. Grateful for the genuine connections and life long friendships made.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day - sending you all so much love ❤ ❤

Grateful for my friends who supported me through my mid life crisis.
Grateful for daily clarity - I decided to quit weed and it’s been a month now and I feel great. I found myself using it in similar ways to how I used alcohol and knew it was time.
Grateful for my dog all day every day.

Today when getting ready for bed, I noticed how nice it was to only smell the minty freshness of the toothpaste and the flowery scent of soap on my hands.

@Lisa07 thank you so very much, I will check out that app! Hopefully my phone has enough room for it as it sounds very useful and I have felt a bit lost when trying to follow along with readings, steps and daily affirmations while in online meetings. I only have access to my phone right now (not my laptop) and I have not figured out quite yet if there is a way to split screen to have zoom and another app open or even zoom and the pdf’s I saved open on a phone at the same time. I am feeling better today after 7 days of the flu so if that keeps up I plan for attending an in person meeting tomorrow where I can get some paper based literature for following along (I live in a rural community that does not have meetings and I am still feeling unsure and nervous about attending any of the 2 weekly meetings in the next town over as it also is a small community yet can be very gossipy and judgy and I work in a customer facing public job).

Happy Friday evening to all my sober people here on TS! I’m practicing my gratitude this evening on my last night of vacation here on Tybee Island.
I’m grateful to be sober and active in my recovery.
I’m grateful we had a nice week of quiet relaxation, good food, some great fishing, and some quality beach time.
I’m grateful we had a nice visit to our vacation by my brother. He came in on a plane on Christmas Day which we also celebrated his 7 months of sobriety and hard work in recovery. I’m grateful for the time we got to spend together and how he interacted with my hubby and the dogs.
I’m grateful that I joined my brother in attending two AA meetings. I have not gone to AA before this week. It was very special to go with him and participate with the kind people there.
I’m grateful to have enjoyed our fun rental house and had good food and good sleep.
I’m grateful for good health. I’m grateful to be getting ready to head home, starting at 4 am. Whew! So I’m off to bed soon so I can get up and head home.
I wish you all peace and a happy sober new year celebration.

Day 359 today! Super thankful my one year mark is just around the corner. I bought myself an early gift to celebrate. I served in the military for 8 years, 5 of them in a unit called RED HORSE. I have been looking for a horseshoe ring to wear for years and finally found this one today so I scooped it up and felt great because it’s easy to get this far along and think “I’ve done well I deserve a drink…” I don’t deserve a drink but I do deserve a cool ring to remember a great time in my life doing incredible work and something I’ll forever be part of.

We’re grateful sober and chill around here.
It’s all good.
