Today I am grateful I was given such a kind sister. Her hugs are awesome.
I’m grateful I reached out to friends to try to make plans. Even though they couldn’t make it this feels like the first time I have instigated plans in my whole sober journey. Usually I wait for someone to reach out to me or live on my couch. Progress! My cocoon is cracking! 
I’m grateful for continued sobriety and the work that comes with recovery.

I’m grateful for a hangover free weekend.
I used to get wasted Fridays and Saturdays so that I was halfway through the worst by Monday morning.
Now my apartment is clean, I did the laundry 2x yesterday and one more is following, a fresh baked bread is done and cooling down in the kitchen, I reorganized my wardrobe…so it’s a productive weekend. Now I’m doing nothing 
That’s what my Sundays are for.
For all of this I’m grateful.

This is me, I recently discovered that being with others can be pretty nice. And letting them take a step closer to me isn’t the disaster I thought it would be.

Happy Sunday morning from Wisconsin. I live in southern Wisconsin and the color in the trees is just spectacular these days!
I’m grateful for my wonderful little life. I have a warm and loving home with a marriage that keeps gaining love and wit and wisdom. We are both well into our sobriety and recovery and we are seeing the benefits in our relationship every day.
I’m grateful that I have the job that I have at this point in my life. I retired from the very stressful work of being a school principal in 2020 and I can honestly say that leaving that work allowed me to find the space to work on my sobriety and recovery. In the midst of the pandemic I landed work as an English as a Second Language teacher in a middle school. It is very challenging work and I learn new things every week. Most times the kids do too! However, the stress level is tremendously lower than my previous work, and for that I am extremely grateful. I had a close reminder of that this week when one of my students reported some physical abuse in her family. We have a good team of people at our school who took charge of taking action on that and I was able to “stay in my lane” as her teacher. I’ve done that reporting work many many times. It is terribly important and terribly difficult and, for me, it activates a lot of personal trauma. I was upset about this all for her and for me for awhile this week, but in the end, I am grateful that I am not the one in charge of that work anymore. I’m grateful to have this work and be able to focus on the joy of teaching.
I’m grateful to have had a nice visit with my sister on Saturday. She is recovering well from some surgery. She is also in her first weeks of sobriety! She’s very excited about getting well and she asked me lots of questions about how to think about things on this journey. I couldn’t be more pleased that my siblings and I are all working on this and are all getting better. We came through a lot of hard things. We are all committed to getting better. I’m the oldest and I could not be more thrilled with this evolution in our family.
I’m grateful my brother moved out and got into his new apartment yesterday. His divorce is slowly getting underway. His sobriety and recovery is coming along! He has never lived on his own, so this is a big step for him.
I’m grateful that my husband has made the transition from his big summer house painting project into the fall routines of work. We are in a 133 year old home that he is lovingly restoring to its original wood sided and painted original style. He has torn off aluminum siding from 1989 and hand scraped and sanded and painted 3 sides of it this summer. In sobriety he finds that keeping himself busy is rewarding and the results are beautiful.
I’m grateful for this Sunday morning and this community. My sister just downloaded the app yesterday and I know that my brother reads in the community regularly. You are all an amazing support to me and I am grateful to have found you.
Take good care of yourself today. You deserve to be healthy and happy and safe. I wish you all peace.

I’m grateful I didn’t pick up yesterday. Thanks to you guys. For a moment I lost a sense.
I’m grateful it wasn’t raining today and we managed to go for a walk.
I’m grateful vacations over and I will be able to go for a run or to swimming pool (+sauna 
) again.
I’m grateful my aunt is such a strong woman… She is loving and supporting her kids (both around 40yo so not such a kids anymore) so much and they are such an assholes. They have no idea how they hurt her. I know I did hurt my parents as well but for my defense - I was fckn young and stupid. I’m grateful I’m sober so my aunt can caunt on me.
I’m grateful I didn’t drink yesterday - did I mention it already?
I’m grateful Im almost not eating meat.
Im grateful I’m alive.

I am grateful my dad did not have a stroke. He scared us all on Friday by losing his speech and was taken to ER, but all neurological tests have come back normal.
Grateful he’s speaking normally now.
Grateful for hospitals, doctors, nurses, all the assistant staff, who have all been most professional and are invariably kind to a slightly crotchety old man.
Grateful he’s comfortable though he low-key complains about being here.
Grateful for family, nuclear family setting up ways to keep him company and help my mum as much as we can, other family supporting. My husband is showing us all how much affection he has for my parents. It makes me gratefully teary when I think about it.
Grateful for time chatting with dad. He doesn’t like TV, so there’s not a lot else to do when sitting with him.
Grateful it was the weekend when all this happened, so we have had enough flexibility to do what was needed.
Grateful ? that this stress has made me start a period after 8 months without one. I thought I was done! WTF, body…
