I’m grateful to hear that @Dazercat and wifey are starting to feel much better.
I’m grateful @JazzyS is nearly at 1 year. I hope you are going to treat yourself when it arrives!
I’m grateful I enjoyed my first day at work. I think it is a good fit for me at the moment and there is opportunity for training and progression in the future, should I want it.
I’m grateful my cat grabbed my hand between his paws and has just spent 10 minutes cleaning my whole hand. What a silly, lovely boy

I knew I couldn’t be the only one who did know, Eric. Thanks for the link 
@JazzyS I named him Pablo (he is originally from Spain, olé!). I just got him two months ago from people who were moving to the US. I’m very happy to have him, three years without a dog in my home felt not complete

Thursday morning gratefulness with my sober friends 
I am so grateful for a beautiful morning start. Woke up before my alarm (wanted more sleep but gratefully got up and moving).
I am so grateful that i will be able to go see my mom before heading into work this morning.
I am so grateful that I will go in for my weekly treatment tonight. I always feel better after having it done. I am becoming more hopeful that i will see some positive results by the end of January.
I am so grateful for hitting my 1 year of sobriety today. 1 year of being free of all my addictions, of living a healthier life being more mindful of my interior as well as my exterior. Grateful for the support from my family and this community to get me to this point. Truely can not do this alone. Grateful for the tools that i have gathered along the way to help keep me trekking. This is a life long journey and i plan on having a long and healthy life.
I am so grateful for the break we are about to get next week from the restaurant and hospital. Grateful that we can do the prep and deliveries on our own time. No need to rush anything.
I am so grateful that i was able to dye my hair and give myself a manicure last night. The house is clean and no pressing chores need to be done. This is my minds way of enjoying my special day - being free of all responsibility LOL. I will go in and help out today at the restaurant but that will be fun. I will be able to set my pace and do the behind the scenes work so no interactions with customers which I am so grateful for as i find that it draining for me at this time.
I am so grateful for a warm December day. I was hoping to go for a walk and listen to some tunes today but alas i don’t know if that is in the cards for today.
I am so grateful for my HP. I know that i would not have gotten this far without Him. Grateful for my meditation/ prayer practices that keep me connected to Him.
I am so grateful for taking it ODAAT! learning to live life on life’s terms. Learning to accept my flaws and work on them with gentleness as we are human and forever growing.
I am so grateful for ALL OF YOU! thank you for being a part of my journey. Grateful for the support direct and indirect that i receive daily from this community.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day. Sending you all so much love

I’m grateful to God for lovingly guiding me and helping me abstain from my addictions, just for today. I’m grateful for my family, friends,TS and the gratidudes. I’m very grateful for @JazzyS and wish you a wonderful start to year two, way to go. I’m grateful for prayer, meditation, music, humor and laughter. I’m grateful for closure and acceptance that everything happens for a reason. I’m grateful tomorrow is my last work shift until boxing day. I’m grateful my friend celebrated one year at AA tonight and the speaker was great, who also happens to be a pretty good friend and support of mine for the last few years. I’m grateful I got asked to speak at one of my best friend’s one year in mid February. I’m grateful for decent health, even while having, no teeth, herniated disc in my back and one removed, as well as an auto immune crohns disease I get to live a pretty active and healthy lifestyle today. I’m grateful for my cat, sometimes I wonder if the name I chose for him of peace is accurate.but he’s still at times a cute cuddly getting big baby.
May our higher powers teach us to love ourselves.
p.s. You can do this I believe in you. Ya you!!

I’m grateful for soft tissues and a good morning blow.
I’m grateful for my black cat organic espresso roast.
I’m grateful I’m still feeling better. A little better every day.
I’m grateful to wake up to desert rain.
I’m grateful our vet got us in right in right away yesterday when I called about B limping 
I’m grateful we’ll try some pain meds and arthritis meds and see how that goes.
I’m grateful all my pets are growing old with us but that has its challenges and sadness’s. I’m grateful I’m proactive when it comes to calling the vet. I just don’t want to think 
“should I” or not. Just do it. I’m grateful I can afford it.
I’m grateful I wanted to go out to eat last night. I’m grateful I thought if we go out she will probably want 2 glasses of wine, but I really didn’t want to cook. I’m grateful I thought I just got to be ok with it. I’m grateful I was very ok with it and we had a good time. And I didn’t have to cook and clean. I’m grateful there’s no booze in the house.
I’m grateful for my little morning set up with fireplace, Christmas tree, cats, and dog, 
(I wrote dogs ) cloudy rainy view blocking the mountains. Not so grateful it’s the first Christmas without Minnie but so fucking grateful we had 16 Christmases with that beautiful creature. I’m grateful neither one of us wants to put up the pet stockings this year. We just can’t, since we’re a man down. I’m grateful we’ve never actually had a Christmas in this house so that helps. I’m grateful it’s a very unusual Christmas this year. I’m grateful I can make the best of it and not be 
bah humbug, until I’m out in public 
I’m grateful it’s my third holidays without drink and I don’t miss it one bit. I’m grateful I’m sober and on this journey with all my favorite sobaristas here on the G-Thread 
Sober Holidays,
The best present you can give yourself.

I’m grateful my husband decided to bow out of his 60ish person family Christmas. It took the pressure of choice off of me and no one had hurt feelings.
