I’m grateful for another sober day.
I’m grateful I had a fun few hours wrapping presents for my daughter, who turns 14 tomorrow.
I’m grateful after a worrying mental health scare she seems to be a little more level and will (hopefully) be able to enjoy her special day.
I’m grateful I know to take life as I find it; we can take tomorrow as it comes and adjust accordingly.
I’m grateful I have enough to provide for her.

I am grateful for reminders of human kindness, little gestures and a well timed compliment here and there. I am grateful I am not rushing difficult descisions anymore and grant me the time I need. I am grateful for natures beauty and that I miss the mountains so dearly. I am grateful for christmas traditions and cookie baking with my friends and their kids. I am grateful this year is slowly coming to an end. Although it shouldn’t matter, but I feel its been harder than the first year of sobriety. Maybe because staying quit is not so much the main issue anymore and I actually have to think about what else to change. Its been more work in a way, but also more rewarding. I am looking forward to the winter solstice in a few days and the new beginnings and growth it promises. Grateful for this rediscovered poem. Grateful for all of you 
Dust of Snow
The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

Thank you Jasmine for checking up on me Im doing fine although feel a bit… I don’t even know how to name it. Disconnected? I think ‘disconnected’ feets the most. Everything happens so fast, days are so short. I dont know. Just feel a bit odd.
I’m grateful Jasmine remind me that participating here makes me feel better, lighter in my head, happier.
I’m grateful I didn’t have covid. I was feeling bad 2 days ago, medium headache, medium fever. I was afraid next day gonna wake up dying. But its just common cold, feeling much better already. Grateful for that. Being sick home alone with this 3 lucifers is not a joke.
I’m grateful Sacha has his birthday tomorrow and we are done with this crazy bday weeks already. Our conversation from this morning:
- when is my birthday party?
- tomorrow
- but to-day-morrow? Or to-other-morrow?
I’m grateful I’m back, I don’t even know where was I last few days. But I was sober, grateful for that.
Big hugs!

Good morning and welcome to Saturday all you sober peeps! 
!!
Another busy week has gone by and I’m grateful to be here at Saturday morning to reflect on my gratitude at this stage of my life.
I’m grateful to be sober. Being free of alcohol has freed up time and space in my life for healthy routines.
I’m grateful for a job I mostly enjoy. Highlights are to hear my young students engaged in learning and making great progress on their English! And great progress at being 12 years old! They are an inspiration to me and I’m lucky to be at this chapter of my career when I can really enjoy them.
I’m grateful for a loving and safe home. Every day is a gift of being present with my husband and pets. We are looking forward to our journey to Tybee Island later this week and some time at the ocean.
I’m grateful to this community for modeling to me how to help myself and others. I attended a holiday social event and had no trouble navigating the presence of alcohol and have fun visiting with interesting people. Thanks to all I have learned here I went into that with mindful awareness of how to enjoy myself and stay safe. Yay!
I’m grateful for good health. My swimming went particularly well this week and I’m slowly adjusting some eating habits to continue my journey. More spinach, less ham and cheese. It was super interesting to note that the bar food at the social event was not so great when I was not primed with alcohol. Luckily it was a safe drive home to better food. Wooot!
I’m grateful to have had a conversation with my bestie last night and see her happier than she has been for a while. She’s on her own journey and has reached some new levels of taking care of herself and her family. She’s always been an amazing support to me, it felt good to be a support to her.
I wish all of you the best in this coming few weeks. The holidays can be very hard for many of us. I hope you all find ways to be kind and gentle and safe with yourself first, and your people next. One day at a time is what it takes.
Peace!

Way too much to catch up.
Today I’m grateful it’s mid afternoon and I’m snuggling with my old boy on the couch, watching old series and listen to my young ones snorring I’m grateful I have a home I love. I’m grateful the drive home was smooth. I’m grateful I took my time in the morning and wrote down my thoughts. I’m grateful I wrote a lot this week. I’m grateful I finally found a way to let go yesterday 
Still feeling exhausted, vulnerable and insecure. That’s good. I have faith that once the process has calmed I’ll feel light and freed. Well, I hope so.
I’m grateful for the delicious recipies we get on our online platform that accompanies the fasting week. I’m grateful I bought veggies in abundance on the farmer’s market and made a tasty soup, various ingredients like mushrooms, noodles etc. will be added to taste at each meal 
I’m so grateful this fast helped me to sort myself out, I needed this step desperately.
I’m grateful the cats had a good time with the catsitter. She is wonderful.
I’m grateful to be home again safe and happy

I’m grateful I never get sick. But this shit can FRO! 
I’m grateful I’m basically on the mend and not as sick as my wife is getting now. Poor bastard 
I’m grateful Alice is up on my lap purring and having her way with me as I maneuver my screen around her to do my gratitude. I’m grateful Norma and family aren’t sick. Yet. I’m grateful they sent a video of Norma this morning we miss her so much. I’m grateful Julie and her husband aren’t sick. Yet.
I’m grateful we mailed some packages yesterday and postponed the rest, most of our errands. I’m grateful I was able to cook dinner last night. I’m grateful I’ll be able to walk Benson alone today. I’m grateful I got to bed a little after 8 last night. I’m grateful I had a pretty good or a least a long sleep. I’m grateful I got Mavy now, he switched out with Alice.
I’m grateful I don’t have to push myself to get well or power through it anymore.
And I’m grateful for the sappy rom com Christmas moves I been watching. Well, so far most of them have been fun for me.
I’m grateful for technology.
I’m grateful for a roof over my head.
I’m grateful for central heating.
I’m grateful for indoor plumbing.
I’m grateful to connect with so many people on here from all over the world.
He who’s down one day can be up the next, unless he really wants to stay in bed, that is.

Ah love I know its easy to feel disconnected when you are feeling ill and dealing with three toddlers and then life in general. Big hugs to you. Grateful you did not have Covid. Hope you are starting to feel better now. Grateful that the gratitude practice helped make you feel better and lighter. So funny how we know it will help and yet when we are down we forget to practice. Grateful that we can give eachother that gentle nudge to bring it back
