I’m grateful
So very grateful for …
Managed to update my sales postings when I couldn’t get to sleep last night.
Feeling better today after having food poisoning last night
Had someone interested in free stuff I posted that is too damaged for donation but still usable. Grateful they showed up (even though they were late - just glad they were not a noshow)
Managed to get work done and even started off cleaning my brothers garage (A LOOONG WAY TO GO).
did some baking today. Enjoying a vegan snickerdoodle now 
Had planned to check out the haunted asylum tonight. My friends backed out and my brother came home beat. I am so beat myself so I am not too disapointed. I do hope I get to do me haunted attractions before the season is over.
Friends coming over for game night tomorrow
For my mom. She and I have been butting heads lately (seems like every time we talk LOL) but we both love each other and only want the best for one another. We both know this and are working on changing our actions / reactions.
Grateful for my Higher Power. Grateful for my faith and love for my HP. Grateful for my daily practices of prayer and meditation.
For this place and all you beautiful people
For having time to catch up here. First time I am able to sit down today. Grateful I did manage to get in my walk and a quick workout.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day / evening! Sending you all so much love 
For having good, kind people in my life. No bullies, no narcissists- life is peaceful and worthwhile now. Having the courage to walk away.
For new friends in real life, and online. None are abusive. You can completely fill your life with non-abusive people, for real. Life is far too short for abusive people. No one needs them.
For making fitness goals in the pool and out. My body is changing. I’m getting more energy.
For Fall! It finally made it here. Changed my whole attitude after 100 degree records. Sleeping better too.
For my trip next week to fabulous Santa Fe. I’m ready! Might even see a snowflake 
For you guys, yeah you! What a gift this has been
I am also grateful for having kind and warm people in my life @Lighter. I got so much better at identifying who is good for me and who isn’t. Feels good to build the community I’ve always dreamed of myself. I am grateful spotting beauty, kindness and joy is really easy nowadays. I am grateful for the place I am in. It’s a good one.
I am grateful the chai and golden milk have made their way back into my morning drinks assortment. Grateful for my new wool troyer that arrived yesterday. It’s exactly what I wanted and fits perfectly. Grateful there will be no returns.
I am grateful for my granny fitness class. Makes me feel like a rockstar every time I go 
The ladies there are really sweet, I love going. I am grateful to be at peace with my age and the enormous freedom that comes with it.
Last but not least. Grateful for washing machines and dish washers. Dirty in, clean out. Just like magic. 
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I slept okay.
I am grateful my blood pressure is down again with less meds.
I am grateful it’s not raining.
I am glad I took the motivation to clean my bathroom this morning a bit before heading to the gym.
I am grateful for a tiny Smalltalk with a travelling woman searching for directions. Who can blame her.
I am grateful to be alive.
I am grateful something will happen for me when I become homeless tomorrow.
I am grateful that I will benefit in my soul, regardless of what happens. Things to happen for a reason.
Grateful for you.

I’m grateful for
patience with my daughter today (she tested me)
The kind guy in Halfords for offering to fit my daughter s scooter tyre free of charge when I buy a wheel
Not going mental at Darcy for managing to wreck the new scooter in four weeks (by drifting and going along with the metal brake pressed down which ultimately wore the solid rubber tyre down to the bare inside)…she was told many times not to do this
knowing and telling her she must be accountable in some way and pay pocket money towards tyre
carrying the bloody thing two miles it helped my exercise today
blt workout and 10,000 steps clearing my mind
staying sober (Today would of been a freaking shit show without that 
)
comfy bed
resting legs
All of you on here
another day of nice weather
I’m not able to keep up here and I’m grateful for all the gratitude flowing 
Sunday gratitude.
I’m grateful another busy week is over. I’m grateful that next week all the work will be finished. I’m angsty to fall into an empty hole when suddenly all is quiet again and nobody showing up regularly. I’m grateful I work on this. It’s just another change in this ever changing life. I’m grateful I enjoy(ed) the process of building all the walls, driveway and finishing the facade. The house looks completed now. I’m grateful it looks like my life feels: complete for the moment.
I’m grateful the ex announced that him removing stuff will pause soon. I fear feelings of loneliness but I need a pause from everything after these intense 3 months.
I’m grateful for friendship and connection. Sharing meals, long talks, being happy to meet.
I’m grateful housecleaning proceeds. I’m surprised every year anew how much dust the house gathers over the summer.
I’m grateful my cats are sweet, funny, healthy, playful and willing to brush. They shed.
I’m grateful my best friend adopted 2 older cats from the shelter, they moved in yesterday. That’s lovely.
I’m grateful for a bowl of leftovers, no cooking today.
I’m grateful for service on TV, today it filled my cup and lifted my spirits.
I’m grateful I unpacked the catfood delivery and claimed bad packaging and missing parts.
I’m grateful I put together my own personal seed mix for the new wildflower parts around the house and ordered it. I’m grateful I also ordered sedum for the stonewall.
I’m grateful for modern amenities, for rest, for comfort, for silence, for a little bit of sun today, for taking good care of myself. ODAAT
I’m grateful that I saw so many friends and family members at my Great Niece’s first birthday party!! So grateful that one of my old friends knows that I’m sober and bought me a lovely non alcoholic drink when he saw me. Having that support is so nice. Grateful not to be waking up with a hangover today. What a difference 296 days makes!!
Happy Sunday, all 
@LAB hope you are well friend. Grateful I look forward to reading your posts to start off my weekends
@Lighter love ridding ourselves of the billies and abusive relationships that we clutched into for so long. Grateful we create our own social circle that is better suited for our recovery and mental health 
. Life is too short!
@earnit how are you Jene? Thinking about you and sending you positive vibes. Hoping you are able to find something soon 
@cjp love sober living and having fun that we can remember! Hope the weekend blew you away. You deserve it all!
@matt hope you feel better soon . Grateful for loved ones that can take care of us when we are unwell
Sunday morning gratitude practice…
Grateful that I got through a super busy and stressful day yesterday.
Grateful that when I stopped to think about it - I had projected expectations and gotten angry when they were not met. Expected someone to jump in and read my mind 
… And help out just cause they “knew” it was too much
Grateful I got all of it done and was able to enjoy good company with friends and play video games to end the evening. Grateful I stayed up till past 2 (how was that a normal life just a few years ago?)
Grateful to lay in bed this morning for over an hour and finally start moving at 10:30… Gonna enjoy this lovely cup of coffee 
… Grateful for good coffee
Grateful I didn’t stress over the woman who wanted to pick up the area rug and then flaked. She messaged at 1 am saying she wants to come on Monday and apologized. This time I set a set time.
For perfecting my vegan meat crumble recipe and everyone really enjoyed it. For having enough stuff to make more cause it really was such a hit.
For good friends to laugh and hang out with. I forget how important human interaction is in real life
Grateful for my family and my Higher Power
Grateful that I am properly cleaning out my brothers garage and finding stuff that we no longer use and some still in brand new packaging/ condition. He does not know where some came from and is ok with me getting rid of it. This project of garage cleaning is gonna take a lot more time and energy
Coffee is ready and I’ve gotta get day started 
For the lovely support and connection I get from this community
Wishing everyone a wonderful day…
Sending you all so much love
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful I enjoy the gym again. It comes and goes.
I am grateful I can walk.
I am grateful my sugar is better now and that I didn’t ruined it by riding my bike.
I am glad I used momentum to bake some bread and energy balls. I am glad I like the energy balls although there might be some fatty acids oxidized in it. Light smell but cacao covers it 
I am grateful I can go to work tomorrow.
Have to add more gratitude.
I was at my late mum’s house and discovered a broken water pipe in the cellar. Must have been broken for months according to the water meter, my last visit was in june. I thought I closed the main valve then but obviously it doesn’t work according to the water supply company who closed the main valve out in the street at the main supply pipeline.
I’m grateful they have an emergency hotline and showed up within half an hour The water supply for the house is locked now.
I’m grateful the floor drain worked, it’s as old as the house. The cellar is only a bit wet in this one room. Thank you grandpa and pa
I’m grateful I knew whom to call. After the supplier closed the valve I cancelled the plumber I reached by an emergency hotline. I’m grateful my brain is sober and clearheaded enough to handle such emergency. My nerves are wrecked and my hands shaking from being stressed and overwhelmed. My brain is running with scissors because EVERY time my life gets neat and manageable another bullshit rises its head and destroys the fragile peace and calm. I’m so sick of life’s crap.
Well, that was a wakeup call to speed up with plans what to do with my parent’s house. I put it on the list for next year. Selling is no option, I want to build my retirement home in the middle of this beautiful big garden. Maybe the universe sends me a lottery win.
I’m grateful things didn’t turn out worse. For now, I’ll see the damage later. Hopefully not much.
I’m grateful for a hot, large cup of tea afterwards with my best friend. The new cats from the shelter are sweet, they definitely feel home with her. Purring sweethearts demanding pets They have a wonderful forever home now
I’m grateful for takeaway food and anxiety meds. I need them today. ODAAT
Gratitude for today.
I am back from my week long trip. I am grateful to be home again, where everything is the way I know it to be, to cook in my own kitchen, to wash my clothes, to sit on my own couch.
I am very grateful for this trip back home. I am grateful to have so many places I call home. I am grateful I know through experience that home can be as transitional and impermanent as anything else. Maybe this is why I am so drawn to Buddhism and its teachings about impermanence. The mirror my life experiences.
I am grateful I was able to visit family, familiar places, and friends.
I am grateful I have been immersed in a culture I lack on a daily basis, and grateful that I am a child of both those cultures.
I am grateful for books in my native language, for hearing and speaking it daily for a whole week.
I am grateful I got a respite from all the daily troubles.
I am grateful I am back where I have more control of my food environment.
I am grateful I am done with the long car rides and can walk, cycle or take the public transport for the forseable future.
I am gratful for this day, I am grateful for this life.
Sleep tight sober friends 
Thanks for asking. Being that were going to help move didn’t show up and my relative sent $$ but it will take many days. I am still in the house, technically court-evicted, and won’t have anywhere to stay with these dogs.
Still grateful to be alive.
Today I’ve been thinking about my ex, who I loved dearly, who passed from complications related to alcoholism. It makes me want to share that today, and all days, I’m so genuinely grateful to be alive and to be sober.
I hope to continue to learn to live it with joy and purpose, and grateful to have the opportunity.
Thanks for reading.

Grateful for another day sober from all mind altering substances.
Grateful for my perseverance making it through a difficult weekend at the restaurant. We are approaching the busy season but I’m remembering to breathe and eat enough food.
Grateful I got to spend time with one of my best friends who visited from Montreal. We talked about all the good times from the past and our future plans. Life and music and it was good catching up. Growing up most of my friends actually didn’t have problems with alcohol or drugs but this specific friend wasn’t afraid to call me out or talk to me often about my issues and that’s a true friend.
Grateful for my family and looking forward to actually be present For the holiday events or family things. I can actually buy gifts this year And will try to make them personal And meaningful.
Grateful for my apartment which I make sure to keep clean and organized. When things get hard I think about all those times sleeping on the concrete hungry and lost in my addiction.
Grateful for my therapy which I just recently started. It hasn’t been easy discussing some of the things I’ve been through but I know it’s going to help in the long run. My therapist has 19 years sober so it’s easier to be honest.
Very grateful to Be making progress with my life and learning to be OK. Like nothings wrong. Nothing bad is going to happen. As long as I stay focused and stick to my routines.
Grateful for this community.
So very grateful.
