Good morning all,
I’m grateful for the quiet this morning- the power went out at about 5 am. I’ll be very grateful when it gets restored! I’m grateful that I got enough rest, and so going without coffee wasn’t to big of a deal. I’m grateful to hear the outside noises this morning- cars, small airplanes overhead, morning doves cooing. I’m grateful to not feel rushed to get the day going. I’m grateful for sunshine to light the house. Everyone have a wonderful day
I am grateful I was up bright and early before my 6 am alarm. Heading out this morning for a day full of fellowship which I am grateful to be apart of. My man-friend and I will be riding there on his bike, I have not been on the back of a motorcycle since my twenties so it should be fun. I am grateful for sober fun. I am grateful I have money in my bank and was able to buy myself some armored leggings. Gone are the days of riding on the back of Harley’s in flip-flops and shorts, I am gratefulI value my body and my life today. I am grateful to have been invited to a friend’s cabin for dinner tonight. The campout is on SaltSpring Island it is an NA event, and I am grateful we will be there for the clean time count down, I always cry, everytime! I am grateful that I can feel emotions today and that they come and go freely. I am grateful that I do not own them, they are not mine.
I’m still grateful for my day yesterday and the time at my pal’s cabin. I’m grateful last night I “called it” instead of catching up with people here - time to be home and with myself after so much away.
I’m grateful my seedlings are thriving. Tiny garden weekend ahead of me!
I’m grateful for early mornings with coffee, on weekends no less.
I’m grateful for this journey I’m on, what I’m learning about myself, how I can change and adapt and grow and understand the best conditions for this. I’m grateful for my recovery, the opportunity to recover.
I’m grateful for old-school whistling kettles. On that note, my second cup is calling
Good morning Twinnie.
I’m grateful I slept through the night 7 hours.
I’m grateful I must of needed that.
I’m grateful I was awake at 5 to see another beautiful sunrise. I’m grateful my friends got a great pic of Minnie and the sunrise. And shared it with me. I’m grateful my friends like to clean my house it use to drive me crazy. But if my friends want to clean my kitchen put away dishes and stuff why was I trying to stop them before and letting it drive me nuts. Probably because I was always hung over. I’m grateful to have really good friends. Who always love coming to visit us. I’m grateful they can come to France with us on short notice.
I’m grateful to see B in the window all perked up tail flickering looking at birds out the window.
I’m grateful Alice is doing so well.
I’m grateful Minnie is doing so well and is pretty active for a couple of hours in the morning.
I’m grateful I’m recognizing my feelings of resentment. I’m grateful I’m trying to let them go. I’m grateful it’s very difficult currently to let my resentments go. I’m grateful I know that means I need to work on myself more. I’m grateful I think maybe it will help when I know when my next meeting is in Flagstaff. I’m grateful I know it will help when I go to that meeting in Flagstaff. I’m grateful I don’t understand it. (The resentments and anger.) Everything seems to be fine currently, yet, I just feel uncomfortable being around her. I’m grateful I know this too will pass. I’m grateful for ODAAT. I’m grateful for 1 minute at a time.
I’m grateful I saw our first snake yesterday and it wasn’t a rattlesnake and I didn’t have to shit myself I’m grateful for “Snake Snap” it was a harmless Coachwhip. Whatever the hell that is.
I’m grateful for air conditioning.
I’m grateful for shade.
I’m grateful it’s a “Dry,” heat

Morning,
Today I’m grateful for quit lit. I’m reading The Unexpected Joy of being Sober and I love it. I relate so much. Another book is arriving today coz I’ll probably finish this today. Its great to see other people do it and want to do what they do. Same as here, I want what the longtimers have and try to follow their advice.
I’m grateful to pick and choose the events I go to, some I’m confident that I won’t be bothered about drinking but others I know will be a temptation too far. Grateful I stayed at home this weekend and will clean the house instead
I’m Grateful that I never left before the miracle happened. Everything I do even the not so fun things I tell myself these are the get toos in life. I get to pay $7 a gallon of gas, I get to drive an hour to and from work 5 days a week. I don’t have to walk a long distance for water, I can eat whatever I wish within reasonable options lol. I’m grateful for this 1 relapse I chose to do while working an honest program of N.A. I didn’t even go out for 24 hours after planning to lie about it as well. It only showed me more so why I want to be clean one day at a time.
Today I’m grateful that there is a lull in drama with my kids. They are all happy, healthy and in a really good place - today I cherish this.
I am grateful to my beautiful parents
I am grateful for my boundaries and ability to trust my gut
I am grateful for being able to live openly and honestly
I am grateful to be who and where I am
I am grateful for another sober day
I’m grateful to God please help me be present while doing your will, clean and sober, just for today. I’m grateful for recovery with its challenges and blessings. I’m grateful for All my family, friends TS and the gratidudes. I’m grateful that my sister is picking me up this morning to go to our parents cottage for a Bbq to celebrate Dad’s birthday. I’m grateful I had a nice day yesterday, went walking to a free yard sale with some people from my building and we grabbed late breakfast and ate it in the park by the river, saw Jurassic World with my friend in the theatre, went for a walk after dinner by myself to the golf course, with a putter and a few balls and hit some shots, hugged some trees, sat in the shade, went to a twelve step meeting, had company come see my apartment that was in town from the city I just spent the last two years in and went to watch some UFC with a guy in the program. I’m grateful that I went to the meeting. I’m grateful that a reporter came in the other day and took some pictures of my apartment, me and one of the staff, asked some questions to promote the building. I’m grateful for warm showers and coffee. I’m grateful for patience and persistence.
God bless you all. &
I’m grateful I’m not drinking or hungover so I can get up at 4:45, pleasantly, and take my friends to the airport. And still get in my daily readings and of course gratitude. I’m grateful I can still imagine the hangover and awful sleep from “the last night,” of a visit with great friends. I’m grateful all us old bastards were in bed by ten. I’m grateful there’s no “last night,” party mess all over the kitchen this morning. I’m grateful there’s no smell of rancid citrus and liquor in the sink.
I’m grateful I think I found the reason for my resentment. It’s got to be because I’m in the position of “waiting-for-the-next-shoe-to-drop.” I don’t like that position. I’m grateful we already talked about it last week. Yet I’m still resentful. Everything is going great. How can “she,” be MAKING ME feel that way.? . I’m grateful I DO know I’m making me feel that way. I’m grateful I will figure this out.
I’m grateful Moxie has 10 months today congratulations sober sugar twin. I hope you’re enjoying your spring. I’m grateful you’re around when you’re around.
I’m grateful we got a big day ahead of us.
I’m grateful we don’t have an 8 hour drive.
I’m grateful for TS and the G-Dudes
When you express gratitude
everyday, you give yourself
the gift of experiencing the
joy of gratitude everyday.
Give yourself that gift today!

Today I’m grateful I woke up hangover free. I’m grateful I didn’t buy vodka yesterday or Friday, and I didn’t want to. I’m grateful I slept almost 8 hrs, that’s unheard of for me. I’m grateful for Max and Riley always needing me and loving me. I’m grateful I’m not worried about driving to the store wondering if I would still blow over the limit. I’m grateful for all of you and this community, I’m grateful to God for helping me find you.
I’m grateful for opening the app this morning and being surprised with a 10-month milestone. It makes me happy that Eric already knew.
I’m grateful for my mom and dad’s visit. It was mostly pleasant and I enjoyed listening to my mom talk about good memories. I’m grateful I had patience when my dad preached at me… especially about my gay son. I’m honestly so over the “Bible-backed” stance he’s taken, and especially his angry delivery of those beliefs. I’m grateful for choosing grace and compassion. It wasn’t easy, but I made it through. I’m grateful they’re headed home today.
I’m grateful the craziness that life has brought these past several months seems to be leveling out. Looking back on the death and grief, being thrown headfirst back into my in-laws’ lives after a 12-year estrangement, going to and dealing with all the social engagements that has brought … I did it all and I did it sober. I’m grateful I know that’s something to be proud of. I’m grateful for the love and strength sent by those of you here. I’m still holding on to it. I love y’all.
Today I am grateful for the brief moments of sunshine we get throughout this rainy morning.
I am grateful my family gets to witness me walking through this day with a sober mind.
I am grateful for all the support from both my family, AA family and all of my friends.
Today I am grateful I woke up and did not have to drink to start my day.
