Good evening friends,
I’m grateful for a good day spent with my Mom, Dad, and Granny. I’m grateful for a clean house- well clean enough. I’m grateful for clean laundry, and that we have the convenience of a washer and dryer. I’m grateful that even though I write my gratitude in my journal more often these days, I still read on here everyday because I like you all:blush:. I’m grateful for love and forgiveness

What a week full of gratitude! We won again today and play in the state semi final game next Thursday! I got a shout out at work from one of the schools I have a project for they highlighted me for doing a great job! I found my wife a great Mother’s Day gift last minute 
It’s an odd culmination of things coming this week, if we make the championship game next Saturday it’ll be my 500th day sober exactly. Win or lose I’m grateful for a great year but what a personal accomplishment it would be if my guys pull it out and I celebrate two giant milestones on one day!

Happy Saturday / Sunday my beautiful friends
SO much gratefulness - not sure where to begin. Grateful that i have been practicing it in my head even when i can’t get it down in this thread
I am so grateful that i realized the oyster mushrooms had gone bad in the freezer (didn’t think that was a possibility) - grateful to have a reliable plan b of Pizza LOL. It was a wonderful night with my brother and watching the latest Walking Dead spin off.
I am so grateful that I have been pushing myself to move through the pain and hopefully healing this tear. Grateful that i will start rehab for my spine once i heal up. Grateful that i am finally getting out and about and starting to feel alive again. Been WAY too long I am so grateful that my inflammation and other symptoms are manageable.
I am so grateful that i was able to capture some stills of purple / green / blue sky tonight with night vision. Still not the lights i was hoping to see but something. I am grateful that i found out i wouldn’t have been able to see them from my location last night - they were visible just a bit more north from me (about 1/2 hour) - so i can stop beating myself up over having missed them last night. I am so grateful that the cloudy overcast sky cleared up tonight.
I am so grateful that i got some nice silk eye patches that have pouches for hot / cold gel packs.
I am so grateful that i got a new mini mp3 player today. mine decided to die on me. Grateful that i got a new one with a lot more features for same low price (i wanted something simple for less than $30 and i got it).
I am so grateful that i got a lot of work done on getting new quotes for my rental home insurance. Was a bit peeved that a few agencies denied me coverage because i have had the audacity to file a claim in the past. LOL – we will give you insurance as long as you promise never to use it 
Grateful that i was able to get some quotes and now have to review the fine print and make a decision next week.
I am so grateful to be feeling sleepy… hopefully i will get to bed at a decent hour tonight. Was very grateful to have gone back to sleep this morning as i was not ready to start the day. Grateful that i have turned off my alarms so i will not be bothered tomorrow morning.
I am so grateful for my family, for my HP, for my daily practices and my movements, Grateful for having this opportunity to heal my body, grateful for my friends here in the TS community, grateful for music and laughter!
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening – sending you all so much love!

Hey,
I would like to get back to some gratitude practice, so here I am.
I am grateful…
- to be sober
- sun is shining
- pool is available and I will be there later
- we have loveley food
- we are growing veggies
- we have this house
- I made it through an aggression yesterday by productivity. It was about my job future, thinking not being good enough, having high expectations and everything being complicated cuz of me being so sensitive and introverted! Realy? Yes that’s what I am. I researched for 2 hours and applied on 5 further fully or 80% homeoffice jobs, meeting my salery expectations and competences. Fuck what others think about my expectations. I still got some time! So… Grateful for productivity instead of sadness
- boiled eggs on a sunday lol

Sunday afternoon gratefulness
My goodness the day once again is flying by – where does the time go? Grateful that i am moving and enjoying life so the time is not being wasted in bed trying to heal. I am grateful that i am capable of movement and i am so enjoying it (trying not to over do it as i do have a real fear of going backwards).
I am so grateful for my lovely walk this morning before it got too hot. Grateful that i was able to come home and workout / shower before planning for a brunch.
Grateful that i did get to see my mom this morning and that she had plans so it was a very short visit.
Grateful that i was able to have a lovely video call with my cousin
So very grateful for my health. Grateful that i am going through all of this as it is helping me make some major positive changes in my life (don’t think i ever would have woken up otherwise).
I am so grateful for my HP. Grateful for my connection that i was able to meditate on my walk as i listened to some lovely toons. Grateful that it was quiet on the walk so i could listen to my spotify without the headphones and not disturb anyone.
So grateful for a lovely shower.
Grateful for my coffee. I have broken the rule today (a self inflicted rule) and have kept drinking coffee all day. Its now 4 pm and i think i will give it a rest so that i may be able to sleep tonight LOL
I am so grateful that i am well enough to help with deliveries tomorrow.
I am so grateful for good music and laughter (great comics).

I’m grateful for forgiveness. It is Mother’s Day here in US and my kids spoiled me today. I am grateful that they find me deserving when I didn’t used to. Grateful that I’m learning to forgive myself. I’m grateful for my Mom. She had me too young and we helped raise each other but now she’s the best Mom and Grandma that we could ask for. I’m grateful to love and be loved. I’m grateful for sushi and pedicures. Grateful for the Sunday scaries because they mean I’m still employed. Hope everyone has a lovely rest of your weekend.

Happy Mother’s Day mamas!
I’m grateful to have woken up to my 9 year making breakfast for me! He didn’t know how I liked my eggs so made me scrambled and a fried egg! I’m grateful for the sweet things they were able to make in school to give to me today! I’m grateful that my husband bought cards for them to sign and give to me yesterday!
I’m grateful to have made the choice just to sit around and do nothing! I have been on the go non-stop all week with walks, workouts, and just in general taking care of the boys and house without my husband being able to be here. I felt guilty doing nothing. But reminded myself it’s just one day!
I’m grateful that even though my husband is not allowed to be here and is not allowed to contact me that he ordered me KFC through DoorDash as a gift. I have on and off debated all day if I wanted to have some type of fast food since I haven’t had anything in 2 weeks, but I decided against it since my funds are low and I don’t get paid till Thursday! So, that was a really great surprise and I’m extremely grateful for that!!
I’m grateful to have stayed sober today even though I truly did have some cravings today. Every holiday for years I have drank and I know the cravings stemmed from the fact that that has been my routine for years! I’m grateful to have spent my first holiday in years sober! And at the same time it’s 2 weeks today sober! It’s been a year since I made it 2 weeks and then gave in! Tomorrow I will have made it longer than a year ago! I’m definitely grateful for that!

Grateful that I look and feel better. 73 days sober and it’s happening. All along, it was happening. I was healing. I could not see or feel it much. But now I’ve shifted. The gut is going away. Liver is repaired. Muscles are getting much stronger. I’m so glad I waited. Now I can encourage others. Middle age makes it take longer, probably.
Grateful that, for the first time I feel hopeful for the future. Yes, I’ll work again, have new adventures and meet many new, incredible people…if I keep going on this path. I can move away to a better culture fit for me.
Grateful for knowing that these things will come in time. I’m not ready. I cleared a path to recover, and I knew it would take months, not weeks or days to build a recovery foundation. It’s for forever, and I am still not healthy. Just beginning to feel better!
Grateful for hope today.
Grateful for my home.
Grateful for my old tabby cat.
Grateful for all of you.
