I’m grateful the espresso Advil and coffee took care of the headache this morning rather quickly.
I’m grateful for another morning where my only chore was getting up and making coffee.
I’m grateful to start the morning off reminiscing with old high school buddies up in the northeast about Celtics City the documentary I been watching about the Boston Celtic.
I’m grateful it brought me back to some memories of back when I was 5.
I’m grateful my plumber is a great guy and very professional and timely and helpful.
I’m grateful my HVAC guy was so nice and I thought to ask him if he knew a good plumber. I’m grateful I got his number and I can text him a thank you out of the blue.
I’m grateful for Frank Zappa’s quote I posted on the meme thread. It’s so true today in these hard times.
I’m grateful for the nice conversation my sister and I had yesterday and I sent her a good morning text.
I’m grateful I miss my wife.
I’m grateful I miss my pets.
I’m grateful for the Cat Stevens music I’m listening to on my EZ playlist.
I’m grateful I went out to eat alone at a new restaurant last night, and I had to endure this lady at the next table constantly talk about her martini. Getting her martini. How good it was going to be. And how she couldn’t wait for it. She waited….. 
Maybe if she got it sooner she wouldn’t have gone on about it so much I’m grateful I could realize that use to be me. And not judge her even if she was a little loud but not too obnoxious. Everyone else was talking about the 6 $ Mai Thai special and comparing drinks to see if they were strong enough since they were so cheap. I’m grateful I don’t live like that anymore. I’m grateful they were all having a good night out.
Grateful for y’all

Wednesday gratitude.
Today I’m grateful my car is serviced, necessary spare parts ordered and I can afford the extra expenses.
I’m grateful for new things crossing my way, for a unplanned training situation for the dog, for cuddlecats, for avocados, for enough towels, kitchen towels and textiles in general. Oh boy am I grateful the new washer arrives friday, piles and piles of laundry …
I’m grateful for rest, for peppermint oil to ease my headache, for ignoring the dirt in my house, for doing the best I can, for setting priorities, for good neighbours, for hot showers, for meds, for tea, for much much more.
I’m grateful for my life as it is. ODAAT

I’m grateful I’m able to adjust my mind to my day as I didn’t get up til almost 8 
I’m grateful I’m taking it OMAAT
That’s One Moment At A Time, this morning since my day has been thrown off.
I’m grateful to be retired.
I’m grateful I can easily make time adjustments now. I’m grateful that’s because I’m sober not because I’m retired.
I’m grateful I got to explore the Pacific Ridge trail by the condo for the first time yesterday.
I’m grateful I got to explore Little Corona del Mar beach last night for the first time.
I’m grateful I saw a photo shoot on the beach of what I can only guess was this girls Quinceañera, because she was all dressed up in this beautiful blue gown that took 2 other girls to help her carry it with her while she walked. I’m grateful for all the joy and happiness I could see in the faces of that family and how much fun it looked like they were having. It was quite a hike down to the beach in that dress I’ll tell ya.
I’m grateful for the people who hung some big ol wind chimes off the bluff way up high and as I was sitting on the rocks enjoying the ocean. I could here their gentle chiming along with the crashing waves. I’m grateful I didn’t fall on the rocks and kill myself.
I’m grateful to live so close to the Pacific Ocean. I’m grateful when I am alone ocean side enjoying the serenity I get to think about my mom. And my dad. But mostly my mom. I’m grateful whenever I visited New England I always made sure I saved time to drive her/them to the beach. They loved that so much. Especially in their declining years 
I’m grateful for my parents and first family. We all did the best we could. And we loved each other. I’m grateful for my maternal grandparents as they had a huge part in that as well.

Thursday gratitude.
Today I’m grateful for a nap, I needed it. I’m grateful for decluttering & letting go. I’m grateful for lovely moments with my pets. I’m grateful for no rain when I walked the dog. I’m grateful for the beautiful atmosphere and view, low rainclouds moved over the hill like fog. I’m grateful for my new raincoat and rubber boots.
I’m grateful that I tried avocado on toast for the first time. Now I’m double grateful I ordered a box of avocados directly from spain. I think this is going to be a new easter tradition.
I’m grateful for peppermint oil, the weather induced headache is enervating. I’m grateful for therapy today and that I took it easy for the rest of the day. I’m grateful you don’t die from stink, the dog is very relaxed and farts. A lot. My big farting cuddlebug who wants to kill us both by chasing cars 
His latest idiocy.
I’m grateful I got interrupted and now I’m in bed, my old boy on my chest. Good night, ODAAT
Edit to add: I’m grateful for the FRO thread and the discussions there. Glorious! Conglomerated List of "Things that can F*ck right off* (Part 2) - #1391 by erntedank text**

I will start with grateful for this that was in my FB Memories:
I ran across notes from the hospital, a week before I left, now proven that I really wasn’t OK and they said, “No work until approved. No daily outdoor or uneven walking without assistance. And more…” Grateful that I know I didn’t purposely not work properly.
I found the homeowners’ cat. I thought he had escaped.
Life. You.

I’m grateful I made the best of my four day staycation. I did some normal things I would do on a day off like staying busy but I also made sure to rest and get extra sleep. I’m not sure if I want to go back to work tomorrow but it’s probably for the best.
I’m grateful for my sponsor and the good relationship we have. He’s really teaching me about recovery tools and his take on practicing the steps in daily life. This is my second sponsor since being sober and by now it feels normal to go out to eat with him to discuss AA, homework, readings and so forth. But I’ve also gotten to know a lot about his life and family and we have so much to talk about now besides recovery.
I’m grateful I got to spend time with one of my friends I grew up with during high school times and he is sober three years. It was the kind of friend where it’s like I saw him yesterday. We discussed plans to possibly work on some music projects and record and we made some notes/ jammed a little. Afterwards went to a record store plus went out to eat.
I’m grateful for my crockpot which is really getting some use .. I’m just learning to clean it immediately same thing with my shaker bottle. I can be bad about forgetting about it and then the next day it’s not easy to clean. I’m really trying to commit to eating Whole Foods and less processed boxed food or snacks. I think I’m getting better every day with that goal. Keyword “less” process box food or snacks 
I’m grateful for actually sticking to working with my trainer and not letting my anxiety dictate my decisions or interfere with my goals of learning to lift weights and work out at the gym. Monday was leg day and He pushed me just a little further which is what needs to happen but I was very sore for like 48 hours. This is something new and this just takes practice and letting my body adapt.
I’m grateful for the Jimi Hendrix record I got at the store which is a good addition to my new record collection I’ve been growing since Christmas time.
I mostly have rap So it’s good to have a classic rock album. Grateful for music in general.
Grateful for my family and their love and support. I think their stress levels are down as far as worrying about me. When I first got sober if they didn’t hear from me for two or three days they were stressing now if they don’t hear from me for a week or two they know I’m just living my life. My mom sleeps at night. Out of everything I’ve said tonight I’m probably most grateful for that. She sleeps and she doesn’t worry.
I’m grateful for this community. I’m grateful for the love and support in this community. Also Compared to the last time I had an account I feel like I am connecting more with people and opening up more. I think it’s because I stopped caring to much about what I’m saying or over thinking a post or response. Because of that it happens more often now.
I’m grateful to make it through another day sober With everything I need and more.
