I am so very grateful for an amazing walk. Grateful I left earlier today to avoid the busy streets in the morning. (so many people trying to get the active movement in before the heat hits).
I am so very grateful for the refreshing swim
I am so very grateful that I was able to get the delivery complete in time and then had the patience and time to deal with some paperwork and filing issues.
I am so very grateful that I finally lost it and chopped my hair ā total hack job. Grateful that i was able to get it fixed and looking better. Grateful for feeling light and new. Grateful that I know its gonna take a minute to get used to LOL

Gratitude:
That I can feel so much joy around the simple acts
That pleasure is not my only source of joy
For eating at a place owned by an ex Gurkha, immersing a little in that rich culture and honour.
Breezes.
Water
My own body that carries me.
Shorter hair in this heat!
Listening to people sing karaoke as I tried to fall asleep. They had fun! 
Podcasts 
Early mornings are now my thing. Wow, I LOVE THEM.
A beautiful break away with my better half, full of quality and genuine invested time and communication and fun.
Getting out my escape room in the time.
That I fell asleep for a nanna nap at the end of my breathwork session yesterday while relaxing at the apartment.
That my cats have been comfortable at their boarding host. To get pictures of them exploring and gaining confidence is so good.
For the feeling of peace.
Letting go of annoyances.
My sobriety a million times over. Without this, I have little.

I am grateful that I handled an incident yesterday with grace and calmness.
I am grateful that, while I really could have and had started doing it, I did not talk myself down to a pulp.
I am grateful for the internetā¦and the fact that I could search for and figure out at least the cause of the incident.
I am grateful that I took the day off. Took care of myself. Watched Deadpool. Read Neil Gaiman. Went to a meeting.
I am grateful that at the meeting I was reminded how violent I can be towards myself.
I am grateful for the work I am putting towards healing myself from all the violence I have inflicted on me.
I am grateful for another day sober. For the community that helps me stay another day sober. For the serenity it all brings me.
Have a wonderful weekend. xo

Good morning all!
It is Saturday morning and I slept about 10 hours!
When I sleep too long I have strange dreams. This time it was that I was pregnant. Ha! (Impossible for me at this stage of my life)
I was happy and proud in my dream, but everyone around me (friends, my parents) were very judge mental and unhappy with that situation. This includes dead relatives who showed up for the dream. So now that Iām awake, Iām grateful it was only a dream and that my life does not have that much drama.
Iām grateful to be in therapy so we can figure out how to help me deal with some earlier trauma, including some that I could see and feel in that dream.
Iām grateful to be sober and have this first amazing cup of coffee.
Iām grateful to live in a safe and loving home. My life did not start out that way.
Iām grateful to have resources to care for myself and my family.
Iām grateful for this beautiful summer break and that Iām starting to get excited about the return to school and my work in a few more weeks.
Iām grateful for this community and your kindness and support.
Iām grateful to be healthy and able to do things I enjoy like biking and swimming.
Iām grateful for a weekend with no plans.
I wish you all the best today and that you get to experience some peace in your recovery journey.

Iām grateful that I got in a early morning walk before needing to go over to the funeral yurt. It felt good to exercise and gave me a good time to clear my head. Iām grateful for everyone coming out today. Iām grateful for my house. Iām grateful for being able to have some chill time tonight putting on some chill music and reading some before bed.

Things I am especially grateful for today.
I took another trip today. On a train from WrocÅaw to Katowice. I love train rides. I loved the landscape. I have not been to this part of
the world in years.
One of my cousins picked me up and then we met with many others from my family. Some of them I have not seen in years. It was so wonderful to connect again. We used to spend all our summers together as children. Sometimes even other vacations. Such a great time.
Now I am back in the city of my birth, in the house I used to visit my great grandma. In a nice and quiet room with beautiful trees everywhere.
I am tired and very happy.
Steep tight sober friends

Iām having to dig deep for gratitude lately. Itās just life being lifey.
Grateful for air conditioning. Itās been a hot 
summer. Electric bill doubled but the comfort is worth it.
Grateful I made a decision to research a new day program fur my daughter. No success finding a new aide so Iām discontinuing the search, and looking into a 5 day program closer to home. I have a tour scheduled Wed for one place and hopefully Friday for another. My AA friendās sister works at the one weāre visiting Wed, so thatās comforting. My daughter does not do well with change, so weāve been having a lot of discussions about the pros and cons. Hopefully, the tour will ease her concerns.
Grateful hubby did not have an accident when the breaks failed on his truck. He insisted on driving it to the mechanic to avoid another tow bill. Grateful I have the funds to cover another mechanic bill. This truck has been extremely costly and delaying a new car for me.
Grateful I could use my daughterās Uber account and give hubby my car rather than renting a vehicle. Grateful she has hundreds of state funded miles available. We lose them if not used anyway.
Iām grateful for the kitten that came to our AA meeting last night. She earned her 24 hour chip (weaned from momma the day before). She was a pretty calico kitty adopted by one of the members. Very well behaved in a carrier during the meeting but of course we had to pass her around for cuddles afterwards.
Grateful for everyone here helping to keep me sober another day.

Iām grateful the funeral days are over. Iām grateful for good friends, neighbors and this community. Iām grateful to be home relaxing now. Iām grateful for cardomon tea and biscuits. Iām grateful that I could get in some exercise and a semi decent hike this morning. Iām grateful Iāve slept well these past few days. Iām grateful that I could take the dogs for a quick swim this afternoonā¦well Mop went swimming Leila is too afraid of water so only sticks her paws in. Iām grateful that even though the past few days have been a bit rough Iāve done well and havenāt been having bad cravings and Iāve felt strong.

Iām grateful you never know who or how youāre going to help people around here 
Thatās why I say this is a magical place.
Iām grateful you matter. Ya you!
Hope you donāt mind me stealing that @I.cant.We.can i know you donāt
Iām grateful I went back to bed at 5:30 instead of getting up. Grateful I slept in til 7. Iām grateful when I told my wife your burning daylight at 7 am 
she said she was going to burn some more 
Iām grateful I havenāt had a chance to do my regular routine and thatās ok. I got coffee and catio time this morning so all is great!
Iām grateful my sister is traveling Spain with family and Iām very happy for her. Iām grateful Iām not faking that happiness for my sister. Iām genuinely happy for her. Iām grateful I know that is because of my recoveries. Both of them. Sheās still my dumb sister we went years hating each other. What a waste.
Iām grateful being happy instead of right all the time brings me a shit load of serenity 
Iām grateful for this slow start to the day and I can make adjustments. Iām grateful Iāve enjoyed my morning being in the present.
Grateful for you all.
Choose being kind over being right and youāll be right every time.

This made me laugh 
My family deemed me the moron sister. I miss a lot of posts on our group chat so Iām always behind on whatās happening in their lives, then I ask questions or post about stuff thatās no longer relevant. Iām grateful I proudly wear my moron crown.

I am grateful that I came here and saw this!
Grateful that I am making progress on Step 4. Grateful for some of the things that the work is revealing to me about myself. Iām grateful for the discovery I am finding in recovery. Iām grateful that I am learning to pause before I react.
Iām grateful that I am doing more things that I didnāt want to do because of fear. Iām grateful that I have done a few driving lessons (one of my fears). Grateful that in a very very strange way, road rage is a very common topic in the meetings I attend, and I see myself both as a learner, stalling the car in the middle of the road, and perhaps at some point in the future, counting to ten when someone else does that (That made a lot more sense in my head!).
I am grateful that I am going back to the gym tomorrow morning. Grateful for the apprehension (Why am I apprehensive about going to the gym?)
Iām grateful for another sober day. I am grateful for all of you. x
