Tuesday night gratitude’s!
You guys rock - just want to say i am grateful to be among all you warriors working diligently on making a better healthier lifestyle free of our addictions!
I am so grateful for a wonderful day. Woke up early enough to get to my OB appointment for another opinion. Grateful for the understanding of why the Oophorectomy surgery was suggested and preferred.
I am so Grateful that i am on acupuncture and natural herb treatment for next 8 weeks and will see if i can naturally reduce this bad boy.
I am so grateful that i had Tumor marker blood work done today and all is good. Grateful for quick test results. Was not expecting to get blood work done today but grateful my water therapy daily start had enough hydration to find the vein – always a challenge. Was a lovely sign to see Oscar the Grouch on the cubicle and i pointed out that i had my Oscar hoodie on today I had also accidentally turned on my spotify and had lovely tunes playing which i realized were coming from me when i went to leave LOL. Grateful the staff appreciated the music.
I am so grateful for my long ass nap today as i was not able to sleep well last night. Grateful that i am super tired now so the nap did not interfere with my sleep
I am so grateful that i did get some time with mom this morning. Saddens me that i will be cutting down on coffee - have to go down to 1/2 a cup a day. I know this is temporary and i will be able to enjoy my sweet nectar soon enough. Will still enjoy my morning coffee memes and coffee humor
I am so grateful for red light therapy and warm compresses.
I am so grateful for my meditation and prayer – helping me keep sane and positive.
I am so grateful that even if i feel like shit i am mentally in a good place. I feel hopeful and this makes me happy.
I am so grateful for my brother. He went and shoveled the walk / driveway at my place today. I feel inept these days as i can’t do much – been told not to lift anything heavy, no sudden movements and to be extra careful to make sure i don’t rupture the cyst as we work on the recovery to shrink it.
I am so grateful for this community. Love all you fine sober warriors! Thank you for being on this journey with me.
Wishing you all a wonderful addiction free evening / day! Sending you all so much love

I am grateful for Nugget.

I’m grateful for this morning’s sunshine.
I’m grateful for curbside garbage and recycling pick up.

I’m grateful I got my chiropractor today, I got some neck and shoulder pain he can have.
I’m grateful for leisurely mornings. Not in the sense I don’t have to be anywhere, but just taking it easy and not rushing my shit before I have to get places to get things done. Just grateful for a slower pace in the morning.
I’m grateful for my recoveries. Her recovery and that it’s hers. Grateful her recovery is still not mine.
Grateful for this sober bunch of gratidudes. Gratitude is one of the sweet shortcuts to finding peace of mind and happiness inside. No matter what is going on outside of us, there’s always something we could be grateful for.

I’m grateful my exercise-obsessed past self created a home gym so that current health-challenged self can enjoy some light exercise on a treadmill inside instead of out in the cold morning air where there are… get this… people.
My dudes! I felt human enough this morning to not take cold medicine and still live my life! Hallelujah I’m grateful to see a light at the end of this stupid crappy sickness tunnel. Also I’m grateful I’m not hungover all the time, how did I even manage to function as well as I did when I felt like garbage all the time for years and years? I feel like I am more salty about feeling shitty now since I’m generally working harder to take care of myself lol but I’m definitely grateful it’s only temporary. I’m grateful for my boyfriend for taking such good care of me, and all the healing snuggles from my pups.
@mischa84 grandma’s do know stuff – I hadn’t heard this but will have to ask my sister to inspect her cats @cjp grateful to have you back on the g’ tread with us. Miss you check in’s. @dazercat tape holding together the broken pipes? Grateful that you did find this and he was able to fix it. I’m sure the videos and outfits are absolutely adorable – wonderful way to make the day brighter. @chiron grateful you were able to work out at home away from all the people – I too am a lover of being in my own space. Looking forward to when I can set up my gym again and actually use it. Hope you enjoyed your work out. @Sasxoxo hey beautiful – where have you been?
Hump day gratitude’s
I am so grateful for a good nights sleep. I am enjoying the deep sleep i get but at the same time not liking the groggy feeling when i wake up. I am thinking the melatonin is causing this but not sure. Have to stay on it for 2 months - grateful that i don’t have any pressing work to do first thing in the morning where i am needed to be alert for
I am so grateful for a beautiful sunny morning. The snow in the backyard is untouched and looks beautiful. Grateful for the evergreen trees - they really pop and i feel like i am in a winter wonderland.
I am so grateful that they came to dig the holes for the deck posts. We are getting a larger deck YEAH! my brother wouldn’t tell me as he wanted it to be a surprise. He has been wanting a better deck for past 8 years as his was looking worn and needing major maintenance. Grateful that he was able to get it this year.
I am so grateful for a hot beverage to kick start a hot day. Grateful that i know i will be ok without coffee for this short period.
I am so grateful for feeling hopeful and positive. The mind is so amazing!
I am so grateful for my family and close friends. My family really has helped me not feel alone and isolated these past few years. So thankful for them and all their love.

I am so grateful that i will be able to do a manicure today - may even apply some allergy friendly nail polish
I am so grateful that my brother told me that his GF is coming over for the evening as they are heading to the Pistons game. Grateful that i did not get annoyed over it. Grateful that she is respecting my space and not coming over this morning to chill here all day.
I am so grateful refined sugar free options. I am hoping to make some no bake date bars today. Even these are too sweet for me LOL so will have to ration out the right amounts daily.
I am so grateful for my 85% raw diet. I was afraid i wouldn’t be able to sustain it when it got cold out but seems to be going well so far.

Good evening friends,
I’m grateful for a productive day off work. I’m grateful for a clean home. I’m grateful for enough food, for our safety, and for the ability to talk through issues with my kids instead of just ranting at them. I’m grateful for my family, and for love and forgiveness
Oh I’m sorry love…be careful - I screwed up my stomach lining with so many pain pills.
Wishing you some relief soon…hope all goes well with your appointment next week.
It didn’t help me but acupuncture also helps with TMJ pain.
I’m grateful that my friend came over to give me a tablecloth and also visit with my dog.
I’m grateful that my new therapist asks tough questions but doesn’t push, and gives me homework. I’m glad I switched to her.
I’m grateful for the buy nothing type communities that allow me to benefit and pay it forward.
I’m grateful that you know who is no longer part of the living!
Thanks I am tracking everything pretty closely including my pain levels and doses. I have always grinded my teeth at night and worn a bite guard but I got a new one made this fall and I’m wondering if maybe they fucked up the mold and it isn’t fitting right or something? I’ve also been nonstop stressed for the last 5 weeks.
I’m grateful for this easy Thursday morning (so far so good). I’m grateful they are all still sleeping
I’m grateful yesterday spontaneously I took all kids for a little trip on a bike. We went ice-skating. I was a bit worried how I’m gonna manage with all 3 of them on the ice but it was great! Whole place just for us, there was nobody else. They had so much fun. And little ones first time could touch a bit of snow.
But that’s not the end. I’m so grateful I decided to go with them for a hot chocolate to warm up their cold hands cause we met somebody very important there. True VIP for kids. Sacha was so super excited, I think I never seen him like this Happiness over the roof. I’m so grateful for that not planned evening ended up being so awesome.
@Passerina_cyanea ah yes, stress and teeth grinding really do make the pain worse. Don’t be afraid to go back to dentist and ask for an adjustment. Those guards are not cheap and an ill forming one could cause you more harm. I am sorry you are going through this. Sending you healing energy and hope your pain lifts soon. @Mischa84 ah man that looks like a lot of fun! So glad that you and the boys were able to have such a lovely outing
Thursday morning gratefulness
I am so grateful for a lovely afternoon spent with my mom yesterday.
I am so grateful that she spilled (by accident) the secret about this weekend. My siblings are planning a surprise bday celebration at the house as I can’t really go out atm. It would have been a surprise as my birthday is weeks away. Grateful for my loving family. Grateful for their support and consideration.
I am so grateful for my new morning routine. Grateful that I am getting up in time to get it started.
I am so grateful to not have seen my brothers gf last night / this morning. Grateful they had a good time at the game. Found out Pistons were playing Lakers last night…I love the Lakers…glad I am not as sports bound as I used to be.
I am so grateful for my practice of meditation/ prayer…helps me stay grounded and connected.
I am grateful for a fairly warm day today…will be 46 and sunny
I am so grateful for sappy Christmas Hallmark movies
I am so grateful for clear nailpolish…my glasses have a spot on them that constantly catches in my hair. A little clear nailpolish once in a while does wonders.
I am so grateful that I have time in the day to do the self care massages that were prescribed. They are time consuming.
I am so grateful for an idea to add apples to my date bars from the foodie thread
I am so grateful for all the modern day conveniences like cold press juicers and immersion blenders…etc. how did I survive without them
I am so grateful for a beautiful day ahead of me … grateful for my friends here on TS and this site that has become my virtual home.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day. Sending you all so much love
Have you tried dandelion coffee? It’s pretty good and coffee-ish, but not coffee and made out of like dandelion and chicory or something. No caffeine and I think the packaging on the blend I have says it’s probiotic or something? I got it when I was doing my whole no-caffeine-for two-hours-after-i-wake thing, and I like it and still drink it when I want a little something something but it’s too late in the day for caffeine.
I had also accidentally turned on my spotify and had lovely tunes playing which i realized were coming from me when i went to leave LOL. Grateful the staff appreciated the music.
So finger crossed 
sorry 
tape holding together the broken pipes? Grateful that you did find this and he was able to fix it. I’m sure the videos and outfits are absolutely adorable – wonderful way to make the day brighter.
Happiness over the roof. I’m so grateful for that not planned evening ended up being so awesome.
