I’m grateful for rest. I slept all day today. In years past this would happen due to a hangover or depression caused by alcoholism. Today I slept all day because I worked a lot this week and needed the rest. My brain is only beating me up a bit for it.
I’m grateful that balance is something I constantly strive for.
I’m grateful for international packages in my mailbox full of the cutest tiny miniatures for a dollhouse.
I’m grateful my Mom calls me even if I struggle to call her back.
I’m grateful for kitty snuggles and cartoons.
I’m grateful I will never run out of new hobbies or new ways to enjoy this world. This week I’m giving journaling a try. 🩷
Grateful:
I just keep going in this life.
I continue to be sober.
I know that change is to come only with my work.
I am aware that blaming other people does not work, does not get you anywhere.
I am aware that consistent isolating, in most ways has been less of a good decision.
I continue to be grateful that I know things and that I can talk back to myself about talking back to myself.
I am grateful that all people don’t hate me and I keep telling myself that, despite overtelling myself the 1st part.
Still going, still going, still going. 162.
Today I am grateful for…
-Being the only server working dinner
-The generous table that added an extra $100 to the already included $60 service charge (tip)
-My kitty babies ![]()
-Being exhausted from work and sleeping good the past couple nights
-Finally hearing from my ex in jail
-My mom for asking if I wanted any produce from the farmers market and I said “idk, something weird” and brought this home…I didn’t even know what it was ![]()
-Something new to try
-Being a part of this place
-Everyone here ![]()
Something to do when you’re bored. Go to a farmers market and get something weird. You’ll then have to figure out what it is and how to dissect it ![]()
I’m grateful for a good trip so far and that I got all my work finished already and can now just have 2 days to relax! I’m grateful for good friends here, tasty food and that my anxiety has been so low. I’m grateful for good nights sleep and having enough energy in the days. I’m grateful for camel milk and yogurt. I’m grateful to be feeling good and that I’m comfortable here. I’m grateful for mint tea and hot naan.
I’m grateful it’s the weekend. Im grateful I was able to get out early to run my errands before it got too hot. I’m so grateful my oldest grandson called and invited me to go shopping and out to lunch. I’m so happy to be apart of their lives again. The mean everything to me.
I’m m looking forward to tomorrow.
I do this all the time! More often with fruit. If there’s something I haven’t tried, that’s what I’m gonna get
I don’t understand people who won’t try new foods
What if it’s your favorite food but you’ll never find out?!
Grateful for my sponsor. I called him yesterday and he had some simple tips that helped me get my feet back on the ground ![]()
Today I am truly grateful. Yesterday I hosted a lunch and afternoon with my three oldest friends from university. They each had to travel up to 3/4 hours to be with me and gladly did that.
I’m grateful they all came with open hearts. We laughed and cried (honestly all of us did at one point) and just showed everything we had with kindness and honesty, no walls or barriers😭.
I’m grateful they filled my spiritual cup to fullness.
I’m grateful that they brought delicious cordials, strawberries, snacks and chocolate rather than alcohol.
I’m just so happy and grateful today that I have these people in my life the past 25 years, they are entirely epic and my heartbeats. I love them endlessly.

Good morning everyone!! I hope that you all have a fantastic day!!
I am grateful to be able to take on projects at work! Now that I will be staying at the store I’m currently at a little longer I get the opportunity to work on backroom space and getting it to where I like to have it and organized!
I am grateful to have been able to do some smaller 500 piece puzzles after work. I used to LOVE doing puzzles, but I got to the point I would start one, lose motivation and stop. It also doesn’t help that if I knew I couldn’t finish it I would have to destroy it to make sure the cats didn’t destroy it and lose the pieces! But these 500 piece ones I can finish before bed!
I’m grateful to have my phone appointment tomorrow for intake to be able to start my intensive outpatient treatment on Tuesday! I’m hoping to be able to connect with locals that are struggling with addiction too other than my husband!
I’m grateful that the anxiety that I have been feeling has been minimal, normally it’s quite a bit to handle and I would drink. I’m not sure if the anxiety was because I wanted to drink or if drinking helped to quit the anxiety (I’m pretty certain it’s the latter). I’m hoping this treatment along with my individual sessions will give me some techniques on dealing with the anxiety!
I’m grateful for 41 days! It’s the longest I have been sober in 6 years!!!

Good morning friends,
I’m grateful for a productive, but relaxed day yesterday. I’m grateful my parents made it home safe from their long TV trip. I’m grateful that they can travel and that they have good friends. I’m grateful for air conditioning because I live in the hot desert. I’m grateful for family. I’m grateful for love and forgiveness ![]()
I’m grateful I found a men’s Al-Anon meeting yesterday. Grateful I liked it. I’m grateful I was asked to read the Al-Anon promises. I’m grateful I realized I was cringing when someone read an Al-Anon prayer. I thought it was too religious. I’m grateful I thought of my good Al-Anon friend who would have said
So What!!
I mean really….
Who gives a shit!! ?
Read it. Say it. Don’t say it. Don’t read it. I’m grateful I didn’t judge the whole meeting because of some stupid, to me very religious, prayer. I’m grateful for my open mind. I’m sorry for the circumstances but I’m grateful there’s 5 other guys there and 4 or 5 on line whose loved ones are killings themselves with alcohol and they can’t do anything about it. Sounds very familiar. I’m grateful maybe I can learn something from them.
I’m grateful we got some Gus time yesterday. I’m grateful I got some SIL bonding time yesterday putting together a Hanging Double Egg Chair from Lowe’s. I’m grateful he was in to taking a selfie of the 2 of us sitting in it that we sent to the girls inside playing with Gus.
I’m grateful the swing chair has a 480 pound limit we got in just under and didn’t stay long.
I’m grateful I told him how much fun I had. I’m grateful my SIL bought lunch.
I’m grateful we have another day off from people in the house. Maybe another day off from Gus. Please don’t tell them. Grateful I don’t think there’s anything for me to put together today. Grateful I can just putter around and organize. Grateful if I actually rest a bit. Grateful my back felt good this morning but after bending a doing a few things already I feel it hurting.
I’m grateful I followed my wife’s lead and had a gorgeous cheeseburger for dinner at a nice restaurant. I wanted to try the sushi and some other delicacies but we were exhausted
again
and that cheeseburger was amazing.
I’m grateful I got a great night sleep and didn’t drink too much wine last night and fall asleep in the chair til early hours of the morning.
I’m grateful I woke up refreshed and ready to go

I’m grateful I bought a couple of rubber tree plants for the Catio and chatted up the guy at the nursery, to make sure I got some good potting soil for potted plants and etc….
I’m grateful in this instance I’m finally thinking I’m not bothering this guy. I’m grateful I’m thinking he’s sharing his wisdom and knowledge of plants at this nursery and doing great customer service with me. I’m grateful he might even be enjoying sharing his knowledge and wisdom with me.
I’m grateful I still have much work to do on this old dog and it’s never too late.
I’m grateful it makes me happy to come here and share with you all.
Wow
Gratitude and Happiness ![]()

Sheryl Crow
I am grateful today
Sober 103 days
Slept in own bed.
Dog Yunna makes me laugh. When spouse starts Quad YUNNA runs to her swimming pool and pulls out this awful thing called a blanket and runs behind him. You can see her smile through the wet raggedy thing.
Grateful for hot shower, grab bars, and bench
Grateful for my husband and pray daily to God to soften his heart and give me wisdom for a great healthy future with him,
Grateful for my sponsor who has to learn all the shitty stuff that happens daily.
Thank you for this day ![]()
I am so grateful my mental difficulties have been lessening day by day, so very grateful today felt mostly normal. Endless gratitude for being able to feel grateful, to feel peaceful, to feel something else then anxiety, restlessness, doom, and depression.
I am grateful I was able to actually feel connected to all of you when checking in this morning. Actually feeling like I wanted to reach out, be useful, be of help.
I am grateful for sleeping an, taking my time this morning with yoga and mindfulness meditation, a good breakfast.
I am grateful for my weekly review, for closing this last extremely difficult week, and looking forward to the next
I am grateful for all the sun, a walk through the woods and the gardens, the beautiful flowers, trees, shrubs, insects, birds. All that life. Me being life, feeling life.
I am grateful for mindfulness training and prayers having helped me through the worst.
I am grateful for friends and games last night. We‘ve known each other now for so many years. It‘s good to be understood just like that.
I am grateful for yoga, breathing exercises and meditation. Grateful I can see how unhappy my ex is and not trying to fix it. Not feeling responsible for his feelings.
I am grateful my daughter is so exited about her upcoming trip to the UK.
I am grateful for books and video games.
I am grateful I live in a place where I can go and vote without having to be afraid, without being harassed. I am grateful I grew up under a totalitarian regime and I am never taking a working democracy for granted. I am grateful I know the good things require work from all of us.
I am grateful for this day.
Sleep tight sober friends ![]()
This is a kohlrabi or german turnip or turnip cabbage. You can eat the bulb raw, or cooked. But you have to peel the thick green outer layer. The white stuff inside is the good stuff. Have fun.
I personally like it raw but don‘t care much for the cooked taste. But tastes differ.
Today I’m grateful for Jesus
I’m grateful for lcrunchy snacks! Especially little crunchies to put on top of a salad!
I’m grateful that there are people in this world fighting everyday to make a change/difference in this world.
I’m grateful for this app and for all of you in it.
I am grateful:
- To be alive and knowing that I should be grateful and wonder more often about what is supposed to be next - not wondering so much, “Why did that happen to me?”
- Found some cash and got coffee and dog food, grateful I didn’t dip into the beer area because it hit my mind more that beer can shut it up, at least for awhile.
- Knowing that’s why I drank for a long time - to shut it up. Knowing that I have known a long time and that is why I only drank beer - to keep me out of some deep shit.
- My brain is operating in its super-smart land for about 5 days. My brain/mind can be scary - really. There’s a reason it wants to be shut down - history and upbringing wise.
- Knowing I don’t need to be that smart to be successful. Being moneyless has hit me in a way I have never had. I know it should give me a ton of appreciation that I have never faced that.
Day 163 - Currently a wild 73 days more than ever before. Thank you accident for making me see a big reason.
**And @Dazercat get the damn sushi to go! Breakfast!
