Sending you love and hugs friend. Here if you need to talk. Hope your day gets easier and brighter
Today was been really good for me physically, mentally and spiritually. I am grateful forā¦
-
Automatically waking up on time for morning prayers. I performed Wudu (a cleansing ritual) and then had some time with my maker.
-
Breakfast with my kids. I made free range scrambled eggs with processed hash browns They had their almond chocolate milk and I had my 5th coffee. We watched old shows and hung out as a family before school.
-
My workout. I havenāt exercised in months, Iāve been so lazy. This was a simple body weight workout, 10 reps each. My arms and legs got tired fast, Iām looking forward to building stamina again. This is now officially my Wednesday workout routine.
Time for a mid-day nap and then off to lunch. Enjoy everyone!
Thank you for this day
The remaining symptoms of my tummy bug adventure receded today significantly. I am grateful for a day without nausea and only occasional pains, grateful for my body healing day by day.
The whole morning my phone kept ringing and I had a hard time getting to the design work I had planned for this morning. I am grateful I managed to keep a somewhat even keel and did not get myself in any headspace that would have resulted in a stupid behaviour.
I am grateful I moved forward on my game design eventually even if it was not too much and I had a hard time concentrating.
I am grateful for a clean flat, for my in-laws picking up my daughter for the afternoon and a nice walk. I felt very brain fogged and moody in the afternoon but walking at least does not require me to think.
Iām grateful for some nice weight lifting later, and a yoga session following that. Both outdoors in the nice may weather.
Grateful for a quiet evening, some reading, graphic novels, an interesting pod.
I am looking forward to my recovery dharma meeting.
I am grateful for this day.
Sleep tight sober friends
So grateful for this ā¦ very happy you are starting to feel better.
Grateful to have a solid home to live in, with severe weather rolling in later. Iāve weathered some big storms in this house- tornado warnings, high winds, snow, large hail and ice storms. Only one roof lost so far.
Grateful to be feeling more accepting of my situation today. My health isnāt good yet. Going to focus only on making it better.
Grateful my brother made it to his new home in a new state. Iāll be coming to visit soon. Iāll have a new state of my own one day. If things get too crazy Iāll just go soon.
Grateful to be sober 82 days today. Itās not easy but soon Iāll be much better.
Grateful for people on this site

-
The NBA playoffs. Iāve been watching a game every night with my oldest. Itās nice to have bonding time with him with something we both enjoy.

The joint effort my wife and I are putting into our relationship. We went shopping for the plants together and did the gardening as a team.

The ability to push myself to accomplish all the activities that I did today. The constant entertainment kept my mind busy in a good way.

And you deserve all of it, mama! Enjoy
Iām grateful for quinoa salad, zhough and cucumbers. Iām grateful that I got through this morning funk and ended up having a good day. Iām grateful for fresh mint and lemon water. Iām grateful for meeting new people and good conversations. Iām grateful for my neighbor who will help me milk my horses tomorrow morning so I can sleep just a little bit longer. Iām grateful that soon the water pump closest to my house will be fixed so I wonāt have to carry my buckets of water so far! Iām grateful that today was sunny and bright. Iām grateful for Mop who is super cute right now having a dog dreamā¦legs are moving like sheās running and for Leila who is sleeping next to me.
Iām grateful I can come here to post without reading, it would be overwhelming.
Today Iām grateful for falling asleep constantly. The seasonal weather makes me dizzy and tired. Adding a purring cat on my chest and I fall asleep no matter what time it is. Iām grateful I can do this. Iām grateful nobody and nothing messes with this physical need. Iām grateful I know this will pass and return in autumn. Iām grateful I listen to my body.
Iām grateful for self-care today: therapy, waxed legs, fruit salad, fresh cooked dinner.
Iām grateful tomorrow is another day. Iāll be in bed soon ODAAT
Thank you for this day
This morning the stoic practice of thinking how things could go wrong in order to be better prepared came to my mind. I was mostly thinking of all the stuff that distracts me from work. And I am very grateful for these thoughts as it of course happened exactly this way: phone calls, social calls and some such through my morning. I managed to get some work done, but I had different plans. I know previously I would have been very upset, and would have tried to put up some kinds of systems to prevent this from happening again. Today I just relaxed into it. I am grateful my journey of recovery has brought me so much peace.
I am grateful for a nice nap after lunch on my balcony, grateful for the great weather.
I am grateful I got all my errands done and got a new hair cut. I like my hair nicely short in the summer. Grateful for the bike ride. I also am every day grateful I live in a place where I can do all my trips walking, cycling or via public transport and donāt have to sit in a loud and smelly car. I love this freedom.
I am grateful for my new flower pots on both balconies, grateful for relaxing yoga and meditation.
I am grateful I know my food cravings are triggered by hormones and Iām grateful I am at a point in my recovery I can give myself some leeway and donāt have to panic every time I eat a bit more.
I am grateful the day is done and I can relax into the evening.
Sleep tight sober friends
Thanks for friends and communion
Iām grateful for this app, for the wise words, the words of encouragement and the sober tracker.
Almost through day 47 sober, and so grateful I will be able to drive my kids to and from their activities this evening because Iām sober.
Iām not counting down the hours or seconds until I can get home and start drinking.
Grateful Iām not as cranky as I used to be when theyād āinconvenienceā me with their night time driving needs and I would have to put my drinking on hold.
Man, I was an a$$h0le.
