I’m grateful this Saturday morning.
A good nights sleep
Bike rides
Walks with friends
Husband retired to bed last night for the first time in years without a tumbler of wine. He got sick a few days ago and didn’t drink for three days. I got a glimpse of the person he used to be. I’m grateful the little break gave him a glimpse too. Of what exactly I don’t know, but it was nice.
I’m grateful that I’m still sober and I will keep working on myself.
I’m grateful for the support and encouragement and love here at TS.

I’m grateful I got a pretty decent nights sleep.
Course I woke up with a headache. I’m grateful I think without any proof it’s from all the sugar so maybe it’s time to set the no sugar counter again.
I’m grateful I haven’t binged on sugary deserts. I’m grateful I’ve enjoyed them.
I’m grateful I don’t have to decide that today.
I’m grateful the speaker at the AA meeting last night was really good. I’m grateful it’s always exactly what I needed to hear. I’m grateful the topic was about connection. And people shared about moving and not going to meetings right away and some shared about finding new meeting right away after they moved because they needed connection. Now, I’m moving in 2 weeks. How in the hell was this the topic last night in a room of about 100 alcoholics that don’t know me. I’m grateful for the fact I get exactly what I need when I need it at meetings. I’m grateful I’m still amazed at how my hp works this in my life. Seriously! Holy Fucking Shit!
I’m grateful for the stormy desert sky after the meeting and I got some great pics. I’m grateful for the rain. I’m grateful for the smell of the rain and the cool breeze.
I’m grateful I’m learning to enjoy my coffee time in the morning with Benson and Alice. Just sitting there doing nothing. @Laner I’m grateful I don’t read my devotionals or do my gratitude or play a meme or read my daily recovery passages. I’m grateful I just sit here with the little cup of coffee my Moka made, and I enjoy it in peace. See the darkness turn to light. Pet Alice while she’s purring on my lap. Just be in the moment. I’m grateful it’s a beautiful thing. I got all day to do shit.
I’m grateful I’m doing my best.
I’m grateful as far as the move is concerned and a shit ton of meetings and appointments I got nothing this weekend until my Sunday night Al-Anon meeting.
I’m grateful I do have step 4 to finish. I’m grateful I have to finish it by Wednesday when I meet with my sponsor. I’m grateful he’s so excited for me. I’m grateful I just got to git er done 
Grateful for you all at TS.
Grateful for this amazing sober community that keeps me sober.
Gratitude…
… is an antidote to negative emotions, a neutralizer of envy, hostility, worry, and irritation. It is savoring; it is not taking things for granted; it is
present-oriented.

I’m grateful that I did a morning meditation, and it was a meditation to love yourself where ever you are RIGHT NOW. Not tomorrow, but be loving and thankful and grateful for everything that you have done to get to this moment. I need to be reminded of that. So grateful for right here, right now.

I’m grateful to be back on the sober train. I am grateful that I am feeling the withdrawal from my DOC right now; I really need to remember it and keep moving forward and look towards the future where I’ll start feeling so much better in a few days.

Thank you for this day 
I am grateful for my husband taking care of our daughter last night so I could meet with the girls. Grateful for the wonderful game night we had. I am grateful I knew how to act around snacks and their temptations. Grateful I could communicate my needs clearly. Grateful they were respected. Very grateful I had no cravings and did not have to have this inner battle with myself over why I should abstain or not.
I am grateful I spotted my addict trying to convince me I was healed, did not belong here and other shenanigans. I am grateful I immediately share these thoughts here and thus took away their power.
I am grateful that in between bouts of exhaustion and brain fog I got stuff done. I am grateful I could cycle in good weather to the supermarket. I am grateful it was not very crowded there and I could do my groceries without being completely overwhelmed.
I am grateful today is the last day of this course of antibiotics and I can expect the side effects to lessen soon.
I am grateful I got to water my plants. I like taking care of them.
I am grateful for Netflix and me being able to afford it so my daughter can spend her sick days watching TV when I myself am really overwhelmed.
I am grateful for yoga centring me and giving me a sense of balance again.
I am grateful I had tools available when anxiety hit and I did not spiral out into panic.
I am grateful for my cough slowly subsiding.
I am grateful to see @john_connor1337 here on this thread. I am grateful to see he is taking a new try at sobriety. Grateful every time I see someone coming back cause that means there is a chance for every single one of us.
I am grateful I could keep my abstinence through this sickness.
I am grateful I can spend the evening with nonsense entertainment.
I am grateful for this day.
Sleep tight sober friends

4 Months today.
I felt wonderfully physical today,
I did a lot of housework.
I did not shut off and am working hard to not get angry - ever at people. I understand it’s pointless and changeless.

OMG just got a picture of an apple pie pizza from a friend and I was drooling LOL – Dessert pizza 
Hope you enjoyed it!
@lab I am sorry for your rough week but super proud of how you handled unwinding and dealing with the cravings. Grateful that you were able to utilize your tools in a healthy manner. 
WOW – love that the universe provides and that you are listening to it. It is a two way street and in recovery I feel like we are more open to seeing / feeling it.
@davina_davis Oh I love it – glad you got in a morning meditation and a wonderful one to boot.
@john_connor1337 Great to see you back friend – keep working on your recovery. The hard days do get easier. Remember to utilize your support as we can not do this alone. Sending you love and strength 
@earnit Way to go Jene! 4 months and working your recovery like a rockstar! Keep going strong
@maxwell Hey Maxine – missing your pressense and all your plant pics – hope you are doing well friend

I am so grateful for a beautiful day. Grateful that the day started off cool and breezy. Stayed relatively cool even when the sun was shining. Grateful it was the perfect walking weather.
I am so grateful that we got to check out the new Dollar Tree Store that just opened up next to our home. It is fairly large and they have a whole section for $5 items 
I am so grateful that i was able to get in a few walks today and did a decent upper body cardio workout. Felt great and hope i can keep it up. Need to push through the pain and work on repairing my muscle tears. ODAAT!
I am so grateful for treating myself to some delicious Lebanese food for dinner.
I am so grateful for finding my Sunflower shower curtain and bringing it over to my brothers. Gives a lively look to the bathroom 
I am so grateful for the black out curtains I have also brought over to darken my room
I am so grateful for my family. Grateful for good friends. Grateful for my HP. Grateful for my spiritual and emotional connections to myself and my HP.
I am so grateful for eye exercises that will hopefully help strengthen my eye muscles. Been having some eye pain and blurry vision today so need to remember to give my eyes a rest.
I am so grateful spring time and watching all the blooms - things coming into life. Grateful for all the bunnies - get to see so many cuties hopping around 
I am so grateful for all of you 
Love being a part of this wonderful community. Grateful for no longer feeling alone and realizing it is possible to have a worthy life outside of the holds of addiction.

Good morning friends,
I’m grateful I’m getting over the cold that took me down for several days. I’m grateful I rested even though I felt like I was “wasting” time off of work. I’m grateful the weather is beautiful today, and I will get outside for some light yard work. I’m grateful my son went out of town with school for a couple days- first time he’s ever done anything like that- and he had a blast. He was also very ready to come home 
. I’m grateful my daughter has a best friend with a wonderful family and she can spend time with them. I’m grateful life is better today than it was 3+ years ago. I’m grateful I never have to go back to that life, as long as I don’t touch that first drink. I’m grateful to read on the homethread every day, even if I don’t post. It’s immensely helpful. Grateful for all ya’ll

I’m grateful I don’t have a headache this morning.
I’m grateful my new Arabic Italian roast coffee beans tasted great in my espresso and then in my cappuccino. I’m grateful, so grateful, I’m enjoying my coffee in the moment. Not doing anything else but savoring a small flavorful cup in the moment. I can’t express enough how much I enjoy this.
I’m grateful I’m enjoying all “The Lasts,” here in the dessert.
I’m grateful for my adventurous moving lifestyle.
I’m grateful after this one, THAT’S IT!!

I am grateful that my child is not in active addiction. That she lays her head in a warm bed every night, and that most nights she kisses me upwards of 4 times good night.
I am grateful that when shit goes down, the NA community is there. I am grateful we have each other’s back and can hold each other up when we can’t stand on our own.
I am grateful that today I get to support my friends, that I am clean, emotionally stable,reliable and available.
I am grateful that I don’t know what it’s like to lose my child to active addiction. I am grateful I dont know that pain, and I will keep hoping that I never do.
