Daily Gratitude, The Air Of Recovery

Today I am grateful to be off work early. My schedule changed a while back and I get off at 1:30pm now every Friday.
I am grateful for my fitness. I didn’t want to do either challenge this morning but I did. I remember when I couldn’t even do a burpee.
I am grateful for the food I cooked today.

That’s all I got right now. This will be a challenge to find new things each day but I’m gonna try.

You’re welcome :heart: @Miranda made me feel better with her story and I know there’s many more that feel the same and hopefully we can help them as well.

I’ve slipped up 2x when I stepped back. But I now know I’m okay if I miss a day or two and I won’t feel guilty. There’s more than enough wonderful people here to help. I hope your headache is better :hugs:

No I thought it was funny you referenced it, but I wanted to be clear I’m a little weird, but even that’s beyond my scope lol

Grateful I had a lovely dinner at some good friends’ house yesterday where the beverages of choice were lemonade, apple juice and water. It was amazing to see how an evening evolves naturally without alcohol…lots of laughter, great stories, amazing food, and a blissful hangover-free the following morning!

Grateful for this day sober, waking up well rested and taking care of things around the house with my husband.

Grateful I had the time to cook some healthy dishes to keep us eating well for the next few days. I like cooking when I have the time, enjoying each part of the food preparation. Chopping parsley, cooking with garlic, roasting pumpkin…all smells so good!

Grateful I talked to my kids today, who are away for the month…just hearing their happy voices makes my heart flood with love.

Grateful for all of you.

Sending love to you all! :heart:

I am grateful to be sober and hangover free.

I am grateful that I got some sleep and that this is my last night of work as I am running out of steam. :sleeping:

I am grateful to be headed into a long weekend so I can visit with and help my parents and see my sister.

I am grateful that i will have time to spend with my sig otha as well because we work different shifts and that can be difficult.

I am grateful I will be able to have more play and cuddle time with the fur babes.

I am grateful to be here with everyone. :two_hearts:

Hi Miranda, I think the thread was something like What have you never done? I’m pretty sure it was an old one that was resurrected. @Fury is the one that got me started on Stranger Things when I pointed out a shirtless man in one of his pet posts. That’s what he had on his TV.

I hope you’re having a good evening, I’m about to watch season 4, ep 5. I’m going to need something after this is done though, will need to harass Chris for something new.:joy:

Have an excellent weekend! :heart: :hugs:

Good evening all,
I’m grateful it’s Friday and work is done. I’m grateful that no longer means I dive into a bottle(or two) of wine, or a “few” beers, I just get to relax. I’m grateful that my husband starts a new job on Tuesday. I’m grateful for the meal preps the kids and I did have been pretty good, and super helpful. I know I’m missing some congratulations, some welcomes, some shout outs. But like mentioned above- that doesn’t mean I don’t care. I’m grateful for you guys!
Everyone have a wonderful evening :heart:

I am grateful to be sober.
I am grateful that even after 25 years I can trust my feelings when my sensor says 90 and I feel hypoglycemia and my sugar says 49. I was right when I didn’t feel toooo motivated during my run. :see_no_evil:

I am grateful I am more of an Allrounder.
I am grateful I can look me in the eyes all mornings. I don’t have to look for traces around my eyes after purging.
I am also grateful that I don’t know the calories of the food I eat. It’s in the way for my diabetes but I take it. It took me years to ‘forget’ this.

I am grateful I have enough. I am grateful that when I don’t have a plan on what to do today: I won’t drink over it is already enough.
