I am grateful my daughter‘s migraine subsided and she went to school today.
I am grateful I came up with some interesting ideas although was pretty sleepy most of the morning.
I am grateful for TV, books and podcasts.
I am grateful for Recovery Dharma meetings.
I am grateful I am ok with feeling overstuffed after eating a bit too much.
I am grateful I had a relaxing bike ride this afternoon.
I am grateful I am pretty tired, the day is done and I will be off to bed soon.
For my first little gig since I got sober. It’s volunteer patrol. Service! Schedule, purpose . Also will meet many people. I’ll be helping the community directly. It’s perfect. I’m starting completely over, and am not super healthy yet but ready to slowly ramp up.
For the beautiful athletic facilities near my home. Went to the pools to get a tour, and get my schedule for laps. I’m ready to resume my best sport
For catching myself getting overwhelmed today. So easy to spin out and commit to too much. Will ease back into everything.
For making myself cook meals more often. I’m not a bad cook, just super lazy
Thank you all for the congratulations on my 5 years. Grateful for my sobriety. I couldn’t do this without every single person here. You all mean more to me than you’ll ever know. Love you guys!
Grateful I remain teachable. There is an abundance to learn from old timers, newcomers, and everyone in between.
Grateful my daughter wanted to celebrate with cake last night. I haven’t talked about it, and she remembered on her own. Did I cause that much damage? Ugh! Grateful for the chance to make a daily living amends.
Grateful for my upcoming trip to Florida. Now that I told my sisters, I’m getting very excited. Probably because they’re so excited. I can’t remember the last time all 5 of us were together without husbands and kids.
Grateful today is Friday and its payday.
Grateful for my old jalopy car (from my MIL when she passed), getting me to and from work. Grateful my credit score is finally on the rise and a new car is in the foreseeable future.
my recovery contacts and friends, here on Talking Sober and in my SA group; these friends are people who understand me and listen to me non judgementally, and that is a huge help
my wife, who listens and empathizes; I feel seen and supported in my life with her
the people working with me (my professional colleagues), without whom I wouldn’t have the professional opportunities I now have

I am grateful to be sober.
I am very very grateful for the cyclists telling me this morning that my rear wheel had a buckle. It took me some thinking as I had noticed it already but couldn’t explain. So I forgot. Then 10 min later: yeah, some car hitting me 2 weeks ago could have been the issue. So all ride long I planned getting it fixed asap. Well. Not necessary as I discovered this:
I am grateful I kept somehow calm. Sometimes, not knowing is better.
I am grateful the sun came out after some hours of fog.
I am grateful I have another bike.
I am grateful I have the option to buy a bike via my employer. Might be looking into this.
This saying: I am grateful I have enough. Maybe not bikes though.
