Morning,
Iām grateful to catch up here. Iām on holiday in Cyprus atm so havenāt been posting or reading too much.
Grateful for 10 minutes to myself.
I must admit that before I came I had some thoughts about whether I would be able to continue not drinking while I was here. Drinking has always been such a huge part of holidays in the past, especially all inclusive. I somehow felt that I had to get my moneys worth so would start on the beer at 10am when the bar opened and continue with a steady stream all day.
Iām grateful to feel so strong in my sobriety. I donāt want to drink. Iām grateful to prefer soft drinks.
Iām grateful to enjoy being present.
Iām grateful for the recent posts, for the shout out, the honesty and vulnerability of some. Iām grateful to relate so much to many many people.
Thank you everybody, you all help me more than you know

Good Morning All!
Back to work today. Iām grateful I feel a little better today 
. Iām grateful for Max and Riley who keep me company, give me love and depend on me to take care of them. Iām grateful for my faith in God to guide me through my journey.
Iām especially grateful and my heart is full of love for all the new friends I have made here. Even though most of you are in different states or countries. I feel the connection we have made and a real bond that we share not only with staying sober but also with our daily lives with pets, hobbies, and sometimes just the struggle of getting through our days. Iām proud to call you all my friends.

Good morning Eric I see you up there.
I am grateful for the very raw view of my man-friend I saw yesterday. I have been slowly trying to help him learn interdependance. He was in a very co-dependant relationship and of course is an addict who likes to do everything that he knows how to himselfā¦ We went on our first Costco trip together and then to Walmart. Oh. My. Fucking. God. He had never shopped before he was just the walletā¦ I am grateful I have learned the principles of compassion, patience and positive thinking. They carried me on their wings for 6 hours yesterday allowing me to stay light hearted, loving and full of joy. Instead of being judgemental and shocked I really truly understand how this happened and can empathize with him. What a gift that is. I am excited to be the one to help spread his wings, Iām grateful I am ready for that and I feel like he is sooooo ready too. I am grateful that relying on myself and allowing other people to take care of their own things gives me so much strength. I am grateful that I figured out how to make the labels for my car charms and they turned out pretty cute. I am grateful my mom found a little gift shop that is willing to sell them. I am grateful for the reminder that if I keep getting out of my own way things will keep happening. I am grateful that I have a free day today and I think I will just read books! 
Thank you for always being here and for sharing your recovery with me. I am grateful for you.

Hi everyone 
Iām grateful the entire long weekend went well. Iāll take good food, clean fun, and great conversations over drinking alcohol any day! I did tell Keely yesterday how weird it was to not be drinking, but she reminded me about my being present and aware, participating in everything, and no blackouts or hangovers. Iām grateful for her love.
Iām grateful we all have reasons to celebrateā¦ not just for holidays, but for waking up each day, for reminding ourselves of all the good weāve been given from the moment we first drew breath as a newborn. I personally know how the traumatic experiences love to yell louder than any good memories, but we can choose to hear them, maybe sit with them a bit, and then let them go. Iām better able to see the positive in my life, even in my past, now that I donāt drown out the negative with alcohol. Iām grateful for my strength and sobriety.
Yesterday is the first 4th of July I can remember out of a heck of a lot of 4ths. Iām grateful for thatā¦ for being able to remember.

Iām grateful for my coffee time with God. Just sitting on the deck with my coffee and God. Not doing any devotional readings or gratitude. Just the 3 of us. And the Ol Burner . Itās nice. 
Iām grateful for uncontrollable happy dogs. Iām grateful I saw the lady way across the fairway bring her dogs out first thing and they were jumping and dancing and just looked so excited to be alive.
Good morning Twinnie I hope you are well. Iām grateful for you . I canāt wait to see your next picture of adventure into nature.
Iām grateful to sit and watch the squirrels and birds playing on the fairway. Not with each other mind you.
Iām grateful to God I donāt drink.
Iām grateful hangovers are a thing of the past.
Iām grateful for Al-Anon and I have āMy meeting,ā tonight. I grateful Spencer from the Recovery Show answered my email. How cool is that? I canāt even believe I wrote in. I never thought anyone would write back. Iām grateful even that, almost made me cry. š„². How thoughtful for some stranger on a podcast to write me back. He didnāt fix my problem. But he can certainly relate. Iām grateful I know the problem is me. Because if Iām not the problem then thereās no solution. And Iām grateful I want a solution.
Iām grateful yesterday was Aliceās subcutaneous fluids day 
. I still donāt like doing that. But my wife does a great job and she says Iām doing fine on my end. Iām grateful Iām not the one to stick Alice with the needle. 
Iām grateful Alice is doing so well at 16 years old. Iām grateful for the times during the day she snuggles with me. (Alice 
) Even when Iām trying to work out. Or at 3:45 in the morning and her whiskers and purrs are on my neck and right in my ear. Itās a very sensitive situation 
Iām grateful today we do not have to give Alice fluids.
Iām grateful I had a dream about holding baby Norma on my chest last night. It seemed so natural. Maybe that was Alice last night 
. Less than 3 weeks now. Iām grateful I can remember my first child came 3 weeks early. And how Kelly had quit work to hang out and be a fat preggy for 3 weeks. God must have laughed really loudly. Because He had other plans for us 
Iām grateful the long Holiday weekend is over and we can get back to getting ready to go next week. ODAAT. And maybe we can get our quiet neighborhood back.
Iām grateful when my wife said she isnāt cooking dinner for us tonight or last week ābecause Iām going to a meeting.ā Sheās sticking to her guns! I donāt know why I asked her again? 
Iām grateful I didnāt take offense. And I have no resentments on it. Iām mean seriously, she never fucking cooks dinner. I could feel myself getting ābutt hurtā over it, but I caught my self. She never cooks dinner why would this be different. Iām grateful I think she is getting use to me going to meetings. Iām grateful the more meetings I go to the stronger I feel about the whole situation.
Iām grateful for yāall.
Iām grateful Iām not drinking today.
And Iām probably not drinking tomorrow
