I’m grateful for the honey chamomile tea I made by mistake this morning. It’s pretty good.
I’m grateful for the half hour I spent on my patio with my coffee, Benson, humming birds, other birds, in the cool marine like pacific air, with no screens. I’m grateful when I finished my coffee Benson and I just sat there.
I’m grateful I decided to take my tea out here with a blanket and do my gratitude exercises.
I’m grateful my morning recovery routine isn’t as rigid as it use to be. It’s definitely still there but it’s flexible and I can pick and choose what to do.
I’m grateful my rigid morning recovery routine paid off after a few years and it was totally worth it.
I’m grateful to see friends from Austin today and they will stay at our condo. I’m grateful her mom lives in California and it’s only an hour away so it’s not much trouble to come hang out here for a couple of days.
I’m grateful for my Al-Anon milestone of 3 years of meetings. I’m grateful I know I have al-anon slips and relapses every day and that’s ok. I’m grateful I’m so much better and have learned that my wife’s drinking had nothing to do with my codependency. I’m grateful I figured out I was the problem and the only solution was to fix me. I’m grateful my wife hasn’t had a drink in over 6 months I think. And I still catch myself falling back into some of my old behaviors. So I’m pondering, ya pondering. I don’t ponder 
If her drinking is out of the equation then why do I fall back into some of my old behaviors 
It probably takes time to unlearn some behaviors that have been instilled in me over 60 years of my life before sobriety. I’m grateful for Al-Anon and grateful to be done pondering 
I’m grateful for walks and hikes on the beach whether it be a short 15 minutes out and back or a long hour plus hike.
I’m grateful my wife is up and most grateful I’m happy to see her in the mornings. I’m grateful when I ask her if she wants to go to the beach and she says no it’s not personal. I’m grateful when she says “good.” “Go!” “Get out of my hair!”
I’m grateful for the 2 squirrels that Benson and I are keeping an eye on that are real close to us. I’m grateful he’s over the squirrel barking chasing phase of his life. But I do miss that. Sometimes.

Sunday gratitude.
Today I’m grateful for meeting with a friend I haven’t seen in a long time. We had such a nice day.
I’m grateful for purring Missi on me, otherwise I might kill my stupid dog. I’m grateful for icepacks and painkillers, fucking dog with no behaviour chasing bikers and making me fall real bad.
I’m grateful for a nap after a short night and a long day. For good food, for sandwiches at home, for tea, for peppermint oil to ease my bad headache from falling, for fresh laundry, for my reliable car, for my plants tolerating that I can’t do anything today anymore. ODAAT

This is beautiful and true. I echo it 
Monday lunchtime gratitude.
Today I’m grateful I made it with icepacks and painkillers so far through the day. Very slowly.
I’m grateful I draw boundaries and even within this boundaries I draw new ones, speak up and signal a clear: NOT like this with me. I’m grateful I speak up for myself and don’t take bullshit anymore. I’m grateful my consequences are communicated clear and I allowed myself a tiny bit of sarcasm. Without, countering bullshittery feels only half. Why the fuck are people such arrogant ignorants? Rhetorical question.
I’m grateful my purring, tamping cathealer tries to heal what my idiotic badbehaved dog caused yesterday. I’m grateful my knee seems to recover, but my foot is really bad and my head is pounding the melody of a mild concussion. Sweet memories of sailing with my Dad and the boom hitting me (I guess once every season) 
I’m grateful for humor, a grim sense of humor. I’m grateful I can tell people about me not taking their inappropriate communication in crystal clear words. I guess I’m really pissed atm. I’m grateful this will pass with a fresh pot of tea.
I’m grateful I’m surrounded by petlove, cuddled up in pillows and blankies, head & body warm, foot cold, looking at my pictures on the wall.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
I like this quote. And it’s context.
I’m grateful that I’m 4+ months sober from codependent behaviour. Struggling a lot lately. I’m grateful I tackle some emotional remains. I’m grateful I TRY not to grump too much, I’m an emotional, nervous wreck sometimes. At least I feel like this, insufficient, overwhelmed, sometimes even like an imposter 
WTF.
I’m grateful my life is beautiful, peaceful and reclusive. I’m grateful I don’t give up when it gets hard & rocky.
I’m grateful I feel a nap approaching ODAAT
