I’m grateful my tap water doesn’t taste like pool water. We used to live in a place where the water tasted so chlorinated that buying bottled water was a must because even the smell of the water made me gag. My tap water now isn’t the most amazing, but it is drinkable.
@Sunflower1 “even at Costco” 
You crack me up, but truth.
@Jwfletcher4792 congrats on your 343 days!

Grateful morning to y’all 
I’m having a hard time getting on here for some reason.
I’m grateful I had the best Christmas trip to London ever. It was so much fun. I’m truly blessed and grateful to be able to do a trip like that with my family. At least half of my family. I’m grateful the other half didn’t come as traveling with a 17 month old is hard enough I cannot imagine adding in a 10 month old to the mix. I’m grateful Norma was the best little traveler. I’m grateful she is trying to call me Pop Pop. I’m grateful I’m going with it. I never thought I’d be a Pop Pop. I’m grateful how Norma communicates her need at her young age with her own words.
I’m sick as fuck and grateful I got sick on our last day and so far my friend Julie who I saw on our last day isn’t sick yet. And grateful Norma and the rest of my family isn’t sick yet. Grateful I was able to purchase and wear a face mask for the trip home. Grateful I tested negative for COVID yesterday.
I’m grateful for so many things in my life. I’m grateful my attitude of gratitude is a constant way of life for me even if I’m not posting it here. I’m grateful you all keep this thread going.
I’m grateful other people drinking on my trip didn’t ruin my trip for me. I’m grateful I didn’t get stuck in a poor me pity party. The old me could have easily. I’m grateful I could feel bothered by my loved ones drinking. Angry. Hurt. And very sad. And then guess what? Let those feelings go. And then embrace them when they came back. And let them go again.
I’m grateful I can have a good time alone if need be. I’m grateful and it’s kind of selfish but I really enjoyed my late night walk in the cold rain around London listening to street musicians and doing whatever the fuck I wanted.
I’m grateful, most grateful we got home Tuesday, and to the vet, 10 minutes before closing to get the pets. I’m grateful to be home with my gang of 5.
I’m grateful I truly love cold wet miserable rainy London weather and I was not let down.
I’m grateful for you all.
I’m grateful I can tell ya I feel too miserable to hunt for a quote this morning. Y’all go on ahead and find one.

Too tired to catch up.
How can someone be so sleepy? I got pampered all day with Kneipp treatment, honey massage, attended a wonderful meditation, had delicious soup and tea, read a bit, napped a bit, played too much on my phone. I’m grateful I feel spoiled rotten. Yes, fasting can be very joyous 
I’m grateful for some emotional episodes today, feeling touched and crying over it helps me to process and let go. I’m grumpy that the disgusting body feeling because of this fucking periode does heavily impact my ability to deal with the issues I want to let go. I hardly can focus on myself with this dammed body constantly doing useless bullshit like cramps and odor 
I’m grateful for sleep meds. Without I would be a nervous desaster. ODAAT

“I’m grateful I am not drinking today and I’m probably not drinking tomorrow”
There’s your quote my friend.
I’m grateful to God for guiding me and helping me abstain from my addictions. I’m grateful for my family, friends, TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful for prayer and meditation, music, laughter, the twelve steps and traditions.
May our higher powers grant us serenity.
p.s. You are a star, shine bright. Ya you!!

@sunflower1 Thank you so much for the birthday wishes. 
@jwfletcher4792 so good to see you on the gratitude thread Jake and going strong with 343 days!!!
@passerina_cyanea Thank you for the birthday wishes – I did have a wonderful time celebrating
@dazercat Awe Pop Pop – I love it sorry that you are feeling ill. So grateful that it is not Covid. Grateful that Brian was able to complete your share with a quote. Get some rest friend – hope you are feeling better soon.
@erntedank I can understand needing sleep as you are fasting as your body is trying to conserve it’s energy. Your treatments sound heavenly – glad that you are having a joyous experience with the fasting (so sorry for the period troubles – they do put a nasty wrench in everything) I do hope you get some pain free days to enjoy your experience 
I am grateful for another day of healing. grateful for having a lovely 3 1/2 hour conversation with a friend. grateful that i got to practice many gratitude’s in my mind today that are escaping me at the moment – grateful that i will be going to bed now as its past midnight and i need to call it a night.
sweet dreams my lovely sober friends - so grateful for all of you. Sending you all so much love

I’m grateful I was able to get back to sleep after needing to get up last night to care for miss kitty. I have the house to myself until Sunday, which means I also pick up the job of her middle of the night care. This perfectly lined up with my plan to cut the rest of the caffeine from my morning regimen, which has its pros and cons, but I was concerned that I would be overly tired for the first 72 hours more because I couldn’t get proper sleep, which could affect my short-term goals.

I’m grateful Piglet said “we never make it Pooh.” I’m grateful maybe some day Piglet.
I’m grateful when I tripped over Minnie’s bed last night, (Daisy uses it.) At the foot of our bed it was a nice soft landing and I face planted on a mat on carpet. And it was a nice fall. I’m grateful my body feels no repercussions from that fall last night.
I’m grateful for sappy Christmas rom coms I love to watch.
I’m grateful I think I’m pretty much on the mend and almost feeling better. Much better today than the last few. So far. Currently.
I’m grateful my therapist was able to reschedule for next Wednesday.
I’m grateful I got some on line Christmas shopping done.
I’m grateful for the feeling of defeat which leads to the feeling of surrender and the realization I’m fighting an impossible foe. I’m grateful to lay my sword down and hopefully not pick it up again for awhile.
I’m grateful to try and get back in to my daily routine.
I’m grateful for gratidudes.
There were no embraces, because where there is great love there is often little display of it.

Since the diagnosis of my brother I lost complete control over my eating habits. I was eating emotionally for a long time.
To the point where two weeks ago, just before my eventful trip to LA, I was told my liver enzymes were very high and so was my cholesterol. So high the doctors were concerned.
I have yet to discuss what the next steps are, and won’t be until after the new year. So I took matters into my own hands.
I’ve dropped 12 lbs in those two weeks. I have been counting calories to the best of my ability on Noom, and I’m trying to level out those two concerns.
Here’s hoping it does the trick.
From chips, chocolate bars, pastries, and burgers to oatmeal, cinnamon, yogurt, and banana.
I’m grateful that I was able to make the mental shift to eating better, just wish it didn’t come because of a health scare.
