Grateful for:
My friends and this house
A nice dinner out last night. Anything lemony zings, so piccata is a happy place.
My kiddos.
Desire to make a carrot cake and granola bars. I have wanted to make granola bars for about a year…
Desire to work for myself. I cannot let it go.
This group, my TLC group. I believe an in-person meeting is something I need. I am a people person and haven’t really done that.
Knowledge that annotating and giving more gratitude to many things, not just in the morning, is helpful. Work to do. Nearly every day I am sad by 10am. I am grateful I know that isn’t helpful.
Good morning. It is a winter morning in Wisconsin and we we finally got a little snow cover.
I’m grateful to be sober and healthy.
I’m grateful that my son came to see me last Sunday and that even though he is coming through a hard time, he is using the skills he has to get through it. He’s going to therapy regularly and is trying to find a reasonable way to care for himself through the hard times.
I’m grateful that I was sober a year ago when my husband’s mother was dying. I was able to be a support to him and to his family. We lost her to cancer a year ago today. I’m grateful that she was in my life. I’ve tried to honor her life by carefully shepherding her resources for the remaining family.
I’m grateful that I had strong routines this week and slept well and did my swimming workout three times. Those sleep and exercise routines help me so much with my mental health. I was mostly the teacher I wanted to be this week. I have 90 weeks of teaching left in my career. Pretty soon I may be reasonably good at it (after 40 years!!)
I’m grateful that my return to the classroom on Monday was with a healthy mind and body. I have some colleagues who returned with irritability that looked familiar to me. I’m grateful to be sober every day, and even more grateful to enjoy sobriety in my vacations and weekends so that my rest is real.
I’m grateful for my safe and loving home. The hubby and I are reducing our use of technology and the phone addiction (she said while she is typing this in a phone), so we are reading more and have taken up jigsaw puzzles. The urge to find the piece and fit it in is fun to notice.
I’m grateful for the public library system and all the amazing resources we get to access.
I’m grateful to be making progress on my financial goals so that 90 school weeks (2.5 years) from now I may be able to retire.
I’m grateful for my health and sobriety and for practicing the skills I need to manage anxiety without alcohol.
I’m grateful for this community and I wish you all a peaceful and safe weekend.
Good morning to all. It’s been a while since I’ve visited. I just need to tell you all how grateful I am for TS. I am now 18 months sober and have no desire to ever go down that slippery slope of drinking even “just one” again. I am SOOOOO GRATEFUL for you all!
I’m grateful I have been a caregiver for my husband after his total knee replacement.
I’m grateful that I have had to learn to practice self care. Again. For the umpteenth time.
I’m grateful for my friends here and in real life.
I’m grateful.
I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful we got to talk today. About relaspes. About how we feel. We learnt that there are people struggling. I am grateful I can usually somehow put it somewhere.
I am grateful for the sunshine today. I am grateful for the frosty day and the frozen ground.
I am grateful I was awake early enought to join a morning meeting. I am grateful for the meeting. I am grateful it resonated with me. I am grateful I shared.
I am grateful I got everything done today I had planned.
I am grateful my mum in-law helped with the laundry.
I am grateful my daughter got to spend a day at my in-laws.
I am grateful for reading, a bit of TV, a nap.
I am grateful for nice yoga stretches.
I am grateful for a nice video chat with my partner.
I am grateful for my heart practice.
I am grateful for a nice vid I got from a friend from a skating rink.
I am grateful for this day, grateful for this life.
Sleep tight sober friends
Keep that dream alive - no need to let it go. Your work now can be just temporary and enough to help you regain some daily strength. Keep thinking about what you want to do and hopefully you can simultaneously get that off the ground
CONGRATS on your 18 months! So great to see you posting Patty. Hope you hubby is recovering well.
Much love to you
Saturday gratitude.
Today I’m grateful I slept well and slept in. I’m grateful I read carefully through the papers, made a big pot of tea and let it sink that the last visible committment to a life together is gone. Separating finances and mutual property settled. All marks of a once affectionate relationship gone. Exept one piece that still waits to be removed. If you get to know me now I’m single without leftovers from my ex. Just me. And my cats of course. Feels strange after this long long hassle.
I’m grateful for peace of heart & mind, for feeling safe, free, content, for doing my best, for being present.
I’m grateful my lawyer was generous in making his fee a round sum within 7 days due date, far less than I expected. I will be happy to pay it on short notice as I am prepared for it. Case closed.
I’m grateful I was the queen of lazy today. My fucking thumb ached like hell from morning on so I gave him a reason to ache. Fumbled around on my new phone to learn about picture editing. Note to self: Not very talented but ok with basics. Not my favourite waste of time. I’m grateful for the try.
Always grateful for cats, friends, homecooked meals, comfy everything, fire in the stove, tea.
I’m grateful a friend will visit for 2 days and help me a bit with things I can’t do because of this fucking thumb.
I’m gratefully looking forward to the surgery and pray for a good outcome.
I’m grateful I lit candles today to celebrate. Yes, this girl knows how to celebrate good things in life on her own! I’m grateful I’m fine alone and don’t need people around & party to cherish a special event. I’m happy with you folks and my IRL people sending congrats and feeling happy for me. A good meal, special tea, extra catlove, a lazy day, feeling good.
Leaving bags of this kind lazy celebrating vibes here, please help yourself if you like some

Tomorrow is my 8 month mark. Havent posted in a while but I am still getting so much out of this forum. My live is going though same changes right now, mainly positive and exiting ones and none of it had been possible without sobriety. I am thankful for this, my health, my opportunities and all the people around me.
251 Days
Grateful for Jesus
I’m grateful for the new friendships that are being created. For my sobriety. I’m able to go out to the bars, listen to live music, watch football, eat my wings, be social, ALL WITHOUT A DRINK!!!
I sit there in a peace and think about the old me and who I was while drinking. Didn’t like him. I’m truly living in the moment now. So grateful for being sober. Cheers
Thanks, Jasmine. I’m so grateful to you
Awe love… feelings mutual… grateful for you too
