I’m grateful for so many things
At this moment, today, I want to express my gratitude for the fact that we came into this world with our own path, our own direction, and our own goals. Everything around us is merely circumstances that we can use as a compass for our journey toward our goals—or that might lead us astray in one direction or another

Today I’m grateful for:
-
another day sober yesterday by the grace of God and AA.
-
Going into work today. Chance to interact with others and be of service to home group.
-
Doing a devotion with son on way to dropping him at school.
-
Spiritual journey is only just getting started. So much room to expand. To think all I used to care about was booze, drugs and myself
-
the power of prayer.
-
For this day. Just for today.
May God bless you and keep you.

~Progress, not perfection

Grateful for the clothes dryer - sometimes I just don’t feel like hanging out clothes and waiting for them to dry; even better that I can wash & dry my clothes at night and not worry about them being damp 
Grateful for convenience food …even though it’s often not too healthy, somedays I’ve just run out of energy (usually because of work) and can’t be bothered cooking 
Grateful to be able to save money and use it for travel 
Grateful that I learnt early on in life to save my $$
Grateful I get to be an Aunty

I’m grateful I did my journaling today.
I’m grateful like gratitude, once I get journaling I go on and on. Sorry bout that guys 
I’m grateful they both, gratitude and journaling make me feel good.
I’m grateful the coffee was perfect this morning. I think I have the new machine figured out. 2 double doubles. Should be easy to remember.
I’m grateful I got the maintenance done on my Highlander. I’m grateful Toyota service is the best. I’m grateful I got Benson’s prescription and got his meds yesterday so today I have no must do errands.
I’m grateful wifey is driving to the condo alone and I’m home alone for one night. I’m grateful I’m not already planning at 8:30 am on how I will get trashed while she is gone. I’m grateful I do not believe she will drink while she is gone either. I’m grateful that is not my problem. I’m grateful her sobriety is her sobriety. Frankly I’m grateful handling one sobriety is just plenty for me.
I’m grateful the kids in Dallas texted us and can’t wait to see us. How fucking cool is that 
I’m grateful we can’t wait to see them either.
I’m grateful when I sober nobody has it as good a me. If I’m drinking? I got fuck all. And a lot of it.
I’m grateful I know I only got one recovery in me. And I’m so grateful to be able to live it with you all.

Tuesday gratitude.
I’m grateful my days are filled with work and joy. I’m grateful I nap when I need rest, it’s a lot at this time of the year. I’m grateful I stay at my pace and don’t try to overdue it. I’m grateful for step by step. I’m grateful I got the first of endless rounds of string trimming done. I went for a full battery charge, that’s nearly 1,5 hours. I’m grateful my fitness increased this much. I remember starting off with 5 minutes last year after COVID. I’ve come a long way by adding up babysteps and minitasks
I’m grateful I listen to my limits. I’m grateful I can loosen boundaries when it’s useful, my boundaries, my learning process. I’m grateful there are no shoulds left in my life anymore. I should … nope. I do, I don’t do, i want, I refuse, I join, I decide later … my life, my farm, my rules. Also my struggles, my loneliness, my consequences of choosing this lifestyle. I’m grateful that my days are filled with happiness, fun, silent smiles and adoring nature too. I chew on the memory that the good sides always came too short in our marriage. I’m grateful that at least I live a good life here at the farm now. Whatever my ex’s life does look like, it cannot be half as lovely as mine. A shame that he prefered beer, denial and refusal of working on himself and us to a happy life together after walking the rocky path of becoming a sober responsible adult. I’m grateful his destructive, negative, loveless energy is no longer lingering around in dusty corners. I’m grateful the dog forces me to clean so much that I clean out all emotional hickups too. Yes, the 3rd anniversary of the big bang is approaching. And I’m still grateful I flipped out, I’m still uncertain if I would have survived if not. I was over the edge of exhaustion depression then, right heading into suicidal emotional burnout. Fuck codependency, by the way.
I’m not sure where this post went as I stopped twice and continued later. I’m grateful that’s ok ODAAT

I am grateful the gardening season is about to start and I will be diving into digging and planting and plucking and harvesting once again. Unthinkable a few years back.
I am grateful for this surprising little moment when I ran into my area representative, just on my walk home. I live in a huge city, so this is not trivial. I smiled. He smiled back. I felt represented.
I am grateful for the excessive sweetness of baklava. Whoever came up with creating these knew how to make this sweettooth here happy.
I am grateful for my body, which heals and strives and moves me every day. It’s doing a good job, although I can feel it not being as agile as it used to be.
I am grateful for a long weekend coming up with no plans yet. So everything is possible.
Grateful for this place, you people, my homethread and my sobriety. Always.

I’m grateful I started my morning with this meditation and coffee on insight timer.
I’m grateful I dug it up. I needed it today.
I’m grateful I will listen to it again sometime hopefully soon.
I’m grateful that meditation went really good with my gorgeous cup of coffee.
I’m grateful I slept well and not hungover.
I’m grateful the wife will be home from her trip for lunch. I grateful she got done what she needed to do.
I’m grateful the guy showed up yesterday and finished our window treatments here in a timely fashion.
I’m guess I’m grateful we found out yesterday Benson has boredetella. They did a culture and it tested positive for a light growth of boredetella. Kennel cough I’m grateful we can start treating it. I’m grateful I 
understand that the pet resort won’t take him tomorrow for our trip to Dallas I’m grateful COULD THE TIMING GET ANY BETTER!! I’m grateful we already have a cat house pet sitter who is a vet tech and she is willing to take care of Benson at home too. I’m grateful she has to work and will get here for lunch to let him out and give him his meds.
I’m grateful I know my brain has clicked into survival mode and what the fuck are we going to do? So knowing that maybe I can use the serenity prayer to help me.
I’m grateful I really need to concentrate of Norma and family in Dallas and make sure that is the most important part of my week a head. I’m grateful for love. Just love them no matter what. I’m grateful Norma woke up this morning asking “is nana Pop Pop here?” I’m dying 
She’s 2 and a half for you newbies 
I’m grateful I heard this aphorism 
learned a new word too 
at the end of the serenity prayer meditation.
Everthing we want is on the other side of fear
Love you guys

So happy for you and your upcoming travels. Hopefully pics of family fun will come to us. Glad Benson got diagnosed and can be treated. It is great you have a pet sitter. We would love to find one. Doggie Hotel causes anxiety for us the parents.
My gratitude for today
Beautiful sunny day
Kind texts with Hubby
My time today can go at my pace. Very slow.

What am I grateful for today? I’m thankful for the sun and my friends and how easy it is to be with them. I’m thankful that my child is feeling better, even though she still has a fever. But she was able to laugh today and that made me happy. I am grateful for the emotional and spiritual and integrative work I did today. For the questions I dared to ask. I am grateful for the magic of my life. I am grateful for the wonderful walk I took today in the spring. I am grateful for the love in my life.
