Love the Jersey Cow on top. Nice touch.

Grateful to read the concerns and thoughts about my wife and me from friends on this thread and other threads.
Grateful for the fun sober September I had with my wife.
Grateful I have no idea what tomorrow will bring. I know sheāll drink. But hopefully not get herself fucked up.
Iām grateful I was grateful for hummingbirds too this morning.
Grateful for the turmeric raisin toast with my egg white omelette.
Grateful I found a nice authentic New York deli here where Iāll be living sometime.
Grateful for the gorgeous house we looked at but itās not the one, thank God.
Grateful this hotel has a Stumptown coffee bar that opens at 6. No worries Jazz 
Grateful I got to see Gus and my daughter and SIL.
Grateful for a sober morning coming up. They got that beautiful bar downstairs that I so easily walked by. You canāt go anywhere in this hotel as itās strategically placed on the way to the elevator.
Grateful for you all.
Gratitude is nourishing and comforting.

Iām grateful for the beautiful bedtime story this thread has been - tonight, and all last busy week. Canāt tell you how much I could have commented on! Grateful for this thread. That I carry you with me all week in my phone and in my heart - i know, sounds corny (cheesy?) - but itās true!
Iām grateful Iām not hungover today. Had a bigggg deadline this week. Grateful the completion of something is the reward. Grateful that I can put myself into my work AND use my new tools to make sure Iām not using work to numb out. Or validate my existence, sigh.
Iām grateful to learn acceptance. Really, my choices are to accept or not, right? Neither change the outcome. Some things are harder to accept. Iām grateful itās okay to admit that, to speak it.
Iām grateful I have more to be grateful for, but oh - bed calls! Grateful I will show some extra appreciation to my coffee-making implements tomorrow morning. (I can just hear them now - ahem, can I get an ode over here? 
).
Quite where I started thisā¦ Iām grateful for our smiles and shared laughs, for our mutual concern for each othersā physical and emotional goings on and wellbeing. For celebrating our successes! That when the world feels a little heavy, I know thereās a place and thread to take rest, to see things differently. Thank you for your eyes and your words. 
Gānight sweet friends. Iām grateful for another day.

Congratulations on your 2 years Twizz
@Twizzlers
I hope the moving isnāt too stressful and you reward yourself with some time to realize you are an awesome person and I wish we saw more of you. But you just keep doing what youāre doing. I hope you get all settled in soon. Much love to you and all your fur babies.

Iām so grateful for you. Sending you lotsa inner peace. Soothing beanies for when thereās too many thoughts in your head. If there are no understanding gamble quails where you are, wishing you crows or some other bird to yell at briefly (I do - they can take it in the heat of a moment far better than a human.) Busting-a-gut laughter with Gus.
And hope.
And sweet dreams.

Top of the morning to you. Off to swimming in an hour. Going to cook scallops later from the freezer, with maybe hazelnuts and peas? Then heading to see Chelsea play against Tottenham in the late afternoon, itās the first game of the WSL season.
My sisterās super stressing me out but Iām starting to realise I canāt keep perpetuating the negative parts of the narrative. Itās so not helpful. We all have the responsibility to at least try to move our feet. My mental health has been struggling lately in sympathy.
Iām so glad Iām swimming and walking and getting out to exercise my own demons so that I donāt take on unnecessary water in my boat. It feels good, and healthy.
Have a good Sober day guys, letās do this

Good morning grateful friends,
Iām grateful to be back and sober.
Iām grateful thereās way too much gratitude here to catch up on. I hope you are all doing well! I missed you.
Iām grateful itās fall even if it hasnāt quite cooled off here yet.
Iām grateful I have a park close to home with a trail through the woods and along the lake. Thatās been the one place lately I can find some peace.
Iām grateful I like my new therapist and like his approach.
Iām grateful my GP is compassionate and understanding.
Iām grateful my boss is compassionate and understanding. And that work is flexible.
Iām grateful for the company if my cats even when they are being little assholes.

Checking in grateful this Sunday morning.
Iām grateful weāre getting an oil delivery today. It ran out yesterday and Iām not so grateful for the cold shower last night. Not used to the fact that we no longer have an electrical hot water heater. No wonder the electric bill is much lower than the old house.
Iām grateful for the celebration AA meeting last night. It was an honor to celebrate with 3 old timers (25 yrs, 30 yrs & 34 yrs). Iām grateful for all the nice things my sponsor had to say when she gave me my coin. Iām grateful my husband called from his meeting, had me on speaker and all the men congratulated me.
Iām grateful itās my day off. Not that I have anything planned other than cleaning but at least I get a break from work.
Grateful for all of you here on TS.

Ok ā this was priceless to read and a healthy reminder that we are only responsible for our own actions and our own fate.
Grateful for this time. No matter what comes next you will have this time - We are here for you 
You are not alone and I know you have the strength and tools to help you keep moving forward.
OH Emm ā THANK YOU! Yes ā this is a glorious place to visit to see things a bit differently. Grateful for all the stories, triumphs and achievements shown through the gratitudeās
@tragicfarinelli Grateful you have your swimming to turn to (I do feel so free in the water ā itās like all of lifeās issues just wash over me with each stroke). I am so sorry for your sister and all that she is dealing with. Do hope that she is able to feel safety and peace soon. I do know how much sympathy and not being able to do anything to help can mess with mental health. Sending you strength to help deal with all these emotions.
@karenkw Grateful to have you with us friend You were missed! Grateful that your GP and therapist are working out for you. OFDAAT! 
@CJP 17 months CJ ā you rock!!! Enjoy your day of self care my friend ā you deserve it

Sunday afternoon gratitude
I am so grateful for my loving and caring mother. She is such an incredible soul! I am grateful to have her in my life and grateful to receive her love every day.
I am so grateful for my family and all their support. I am so grateful that i will find the strength to keep pushing forward and staying positive. They believe and so shall I ā¦ this too shall pass.
I am so grateful for my HP and His guidance
I am so grateful for the first day of October. My favorite month for oh so many reasons but mainly cause its Halloween!
I am so grateful that my sisterās SIL was grateful for all the Halloween stuff I gifted them. She still has not gone through all the boxes but I was told the kids are super excited. This makes me happy. I am hoping to have enough energy to do some light decorating this year.
I am so grateful that my throat is 90% healed. I am having other issues which i know will heal tooā¦ just making it ODAAT.
I am so grateful for getting my irrigation system fixed tomorrow and get the last zone blown out. Hoping itās not too expensive.
I am so grateful that my renters will be moving out by Tuesday morning so will give me some time to get the place ready for showing - i am hoping to have it rented out by 11/1 (not wanting to rush myself and fuck up my energy in the process).
I am so grateful for a laid back Sunday! My sleep is up and down. I am grateful that when i finally pass out (as long as i donāt move) i can get some decent hours of sleep.
I am so grateful for you all - this community is the fucking best! All of you are unbelievably supportive and i love each of you for that. Thank you for being here
I do hope everyone has a wonderful addiction free day! Sending you so much love

A little bit more gratitude I forgot.
Grateful for all the thoughtful gifts I recieved at my celebration last night. I opened them all this morning. These ladies are pretty crafty making cards and decorating gift bags. This gratitude box is the perfect size to carry in my purse or leave in my desk at work.

Surprised myself actually, everything is done. Itās livable and nice at the same time. Glad I just got on with it - as and sober!
I am exhausted, but I am settled which is great.
How are you doing? How are your settling in ?
Thanks for your message

Iām grateful for the good day I had.
I got precious little done, but hey - thatās good Sunday, if you ask me.
Iām grateful for the good walks with the old dog girl, (am gonna have to get some cardio on the side, but at least our walks have a nice calming feel about them.) For a nap in the sun. For potted mums. For the quick chat with a pal going through a rough time. For easy eating today - leftovers yay!
(I love you back! not corny at all. maybe a bit vegan-cheesy? 
)
Iām grateful for this thread and the love fest it is. Perfect timing, Billy. I really want to get to your Monday morning RR meeting! Alas, I have a standing zoom work meeting with a client Mondays at 8am (MT). I contemplated calling in sick. But that would be dishonest. At least I wonāt have a Monday morning hangover! Grateful for that.
Iām grateful for another day.

Iām grateful to God for lovingly guiding me and helping me abstain from my addictions. Iām grateful for my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. Iām grateful for freedom from the insanity of active addiction. Iām grateful for H.A.L.T. Iām grateful for attending at least one good meeting each of the last three days. Iām grateful my family and friends have been coming to check on me since hurting my back and that I have a safe place and good relationship with them that they can do that. Iām grateful for the serenity prayer. Iām grateful that I donāt just read the big book of AA I study it. Iām grateful that when I slept in and missed churh this morning I forgave myself, prayed and invited my sponsee over to join me for coffee and to read and discuss a bunch of the daily readings and devotionals I have. Iām grateful that I kept checking the scores of the football games today and that my team won but I didnāt feel compelled to watch obsessively all day, my addict can allow even my love for sports to consume an entire day and for me that is not what I consider healthy behavior anymore. Iām grateful for the twelve steps and traditions. Iām grateful my back feels a little better and I didnāt need to use my new cane today. Iām grateful for music, humor and laughter. Iām grateful for forgivenss and the reminder that since my HP has forgiven me who am I to not forgive myself.
May our higher powers help us find balance.
p.s. Donāt ever forget, you rock. Ya you!!
