Another day, another week - so very grateful to be alive
I am so very grateful for spending some time with my brother. We did so quietly watching movies but the tension is lifting. So grateful for our recent communication and that we are both seeing each others points of view. I am so very grateful for for having the energy to move my bed and rearranging it so that I can have more space in the room and keep my walking pad in room as well. I am so very grateful formy trampoline. I have space to set it up. Grateful that I learned that a bit of jumping helps loosen lymph glands. I am so very grateful for staying on top of my plank and squat challenge I am so very grateful for getting one set of tax documents submitted. Only four more to go. Mine should be fairly easy and I am hoping to get them submitted today. I am so very grateful for getting laundry done that I have enough left overs so I don’t have to do any cooking today I am so very grateful for good coffee I am so very grateful for good shows to entertain and distract I am so very grateful for not feeling like a full on zombie even with crappy sleep. The pain levels were super intense last night. I am so very grateful for my family and friends. For unconditional love. I am so very grateful for my Higher Power. For my faith in Him and to know that everything is temporary and I will heal and get better I am so very grateful forfor this community! So grateful for all of you.
Wishing everyone a wonderful addiction free day! Sending you all so much love
I’m grateful
For a productive day
For good work meetings
For a cold but very sunny day
For my morning walk and even getting in a walk after dinner and before it got too dark
For my dogs who are super cute
For my cozy warm home
That I have everything I need to live comfortably but simply
For inner peace
That I am sober
For my job
Second monday being sober this year!
So grateful for that.
I am very grateful for this community. I have found true support in here.
I am grateful for being alive.
I am grateful for the lessons learned and the ones that comes.
Life is short, and I want to be present.
I am grateful for this very moment of clarity and being able to be present.
Thank you God.
Love.
I am grateful my anxiety and overall increase in symptoms this morning subsided after a nap.
I am grateful my daughter‘s migraine got a bit better, then a bit worse, and better again. I am grateful she could nap aswell.
I am grateful for my mum running errands for us.
I am grateful for my heart practice.
I am grateful I was able to do some programming.
I am grateful for silly TV.
I am grateful for good books.
I am grateful for the sun, the clear skies, and the stars today.
I am grateful for a nice chat with a friend.
I am grateful for all the support we are getting.
I am grateful for the easy access to health care.
I am grateful my daughter had some fun today.
I am grateful for this day, and grateful for this life.
I am grateful for God, my home and my family. I am grateful that I think I am nearing the end of this virus. I am grateful I dont feel spiritually sick after being isolated for 2 weeks. I am grateful for my old dog, who has a hurt knee and was on her best behavior at a potential overnight boarders.
I am excited that my mom and I will be going on our first mother /daughter trip in April. She is 75, I am 51 and we have never traveled just the two of us. I am grateful I can travel and take her for what may be her last trip to Hawaii. I am grateful I’m not loaded and that I will get to be present for every moment we are together. Its going to be great.
I am grateful that my kiddo did exceptionally in her first term of college. Starting post secondary with a 4.33 GPA, damn good start. I am grateful that she is settling into the new routine quite well.
I feel so at peace, and I live all of my days in gratitude. I feel like somedays are just a walking prayer, all of the day an offering. I am grateful that people can change.
Grateful for my sobriety and for the gifts that it brings daily
Grateful to realize I am over doing the caffeine yet again and essentially drinking myself into panic attacks
Grateful to realize that it is self-sabatoge at it’s finest and i need to chill. It’s like i’m recreating hangover symptoms thru caffeine use… dehydration, increased heart rate, panic, strung out… not sure if its some sort of self-fulfilling prophecy I have to feel shitty…?
Grateful I have the power to change
Grateful for tomorrow off with not one plan but to relax
Grateful I decided to promise dinner to my friends. Falafel, lentils, rice, and GF naan. Now I will spend the day deciding a million ways which lentil dish I should do. I don’t think Indian spice is a happy place for one of us. Hmmm…
Grateful that even though I got tiny sleep, due to a big ol’ dog deciding I am her bed, I am healthy.
Grateful I took the energy and power to completely read through all my hospital testing from day one. Hard to do and gratitude sticks with my ability to read it and begin planning doctor visits.
Grateful there is unexpected smell tidbits. They are very small and often unknown. Having any matters.
Grateful that my determination keeps aiming toward speaking about ineffective work with those who go what I go through. Just because injury can’t be seen doesn’t mean it’s not there. I am more convinced daily that my story should be public as a tool for my people.
Grateful to look down and see number 4:44. I am a number person.
I’m grateful
For my job- it can be interesting and fun but also helpful to the community and honestly this project helps me
For a productive day despite my lower than normal energy
For this mornings hike
For the fox I saw this morning
For a wonderful cup of cardamon coffee this morning
For cuddles with my dogs
For feeling peace and hope that I can live free of my past traumas and free of anxiety
That I have supportive friends
For being sober and healthy
I’m grateful we aren’t on fire.
I’m grateful I got my wife and especially the fact she is sober.

I’m grateful wifey is still asleep and isn’t sleeping one off.
I’m grateful for my sobriety.

I’m grateful for my pets and family.

Tuesday gratitude. Time flies. Life has been busy.
I’m grateful I picked up a dear friend on sunday to stay at my place for some days. It was her husband’s day of death 3rd anniversary. We were good friends, I still miss him. I’m grateful we had a relaxed sunday, nice food, long talks, some fun. I’m grateful we both feel good about her staying at the farm. To be honest I was a bit insecure about how I’ll cope as this is the first time since the separation that someone stayed overnight at the farm. Before it was only me and my ex. I’m very grateful that sharing the farmhouse with a friend is a nice, uncomplicated, stressless experience. Even more as the guestroom is not ready and she sleeps on the couch (triggerwarning ex-behaviour). It turns out that I’m happy and chill with a guest using the couch (it’s big enough for 3 people or 2 with 3 cats). I’m grateful the cats see her as additional human to sleep on, get petted and purr at. It’s been a while since her last visit at the townhouse when I lived there.
I’m grateful I’m in bed early, my energy was used up by noon today and I napped half of the afternoon.
I’m grateful we stocked up on firewood at the furnace room yesterday Grateful for her help and the green wonderwuzzi (yes, still in love with this practical vehicle).
I’m grateful for a warm house, a comfy bed, connection, peace of mind, boundaries, ME- time, texting, feeling cared, being kind, letting go, my cousellor, cat fun, tea, chill beautiful winter weather (no snow ), modern amenities, sleep, smiles and a lot more … too tired, fall asleep writing. Have a good sober day dear folks! ODAAT
a good job that pays well and allows me to work from home full time
food to eat and clothes to wear
my car going for its MOT today. Fingers crossed its all good
being asked to share on Saturday has made me really examine my life with addiction and face some harsh realities that I have glossed over for many years
this forum and everyone new and old sharing and helping me stay sober
Though it’s early, I slept 7-hours without waking up.
Falafel, rice and a salad - not exactly the dinner I planned but it was good for friends.
Ability to fight with myself as a way to get bad thoughts out of my mind.
Increased knowledge of the growth of my health, having read through
documentation from the hospital.
Knowledge that it could have been much different and possibly worse.
A roof - which one day will be a memory of my time without a home.
My dogs, who did not decide to sleep on me on a not-that-wide couch.
My friends who’ve lost their homes are safe and physically healthy.
My family that is primarily healthy…
Another sober day: Palindrome day 383 and a great quote on the app. “Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.” Truth.
