Just for today, I will continue to work on my patience and tolerance. I took all the books that i hadn't read from a new author to me after I had picked up some other books that looked interesting. A little of that patience and tolerance has to go to myself, not just with other things.

Just for today, I will not be judgmental. They say, "Judge not, less you be judged." Today I was judging myself because I woke up and thought it was Friday, got dressed, crossed the street, went up and knocked on the door because it was locked. it was 10 to 7, so I thought one of the members was inside and forgot to open the door. Went down and knocked on the door of the custodians only to find out it was Thursday, not Friday. I set the alarm when I came home from the foot clinic, so I could sleep and not miss the meeting. A definite JoAnne thing, but others said they have done it too. When i was leaving, the woman who came to me and asked me to open my Group Freedom of Recovery was going in as i was coming out. Had a little meeting with her. I phoned a good friend and had a talk with her before I started posting tonight. When you get honest, good things happen.

Just for Today, i will work through my pain. I will acknowledge and accept it, knowing what it is from, and ask what I need to get through it. i need to love myself. I can't let my pain rule my life. I can't take things that block it and submerge it into that inky blackness of addiction. i have to feel it in order to let it go.

just for today, I ask for patience and tolerance. I have had to reboot twice and close down and window twice and bring up a new one.

i have to shut off my computer again; it is so hot, even my desk is warm around it. This time it will have to cool off for more than an hour.

Just for today, I will try to stay in the moment and be accepting of what is, be it gun shots and sirens, I will be grateful that I am safe in my apartment. Had a big sleep, not a nap, so grateful for it and try not to lament me missing my NA meeting.

Just for Today, I pray for health and well being. Ir is very hot and humid out and i had to cancel Darts and stay home. My foot doctor said to stay off of it, so I guess I should listen and learn to do what I am told. :)

Just for today, I will tyr to listen harder. my dfoot doctor told me to stay off my feet, so my wounds would hill. Then she said that the wounds on my right foot were healed. Well I felt like I had to get out and I had to find a store that had butter. When I got home, the foot that was so healed, felt like it was bleeding. I walked downtown and back because it was a holiday Monday and buses that would take me close to my home, runs every hour.

The nice thing was that I was standing in line and my son said I was next. The guy at the other lineup put his stuff down and said put her item on my bill, because I am butting in front of her, so I wwill pay for her butter. This was at a variety store, my son went and got it because my feet were sore and I moved slow. I wwas afraid to ask how muh it was. and it ended up costing me nothing. i still don't know.

Didn't get this posted this morning, better late than never. it isn't morning, but perhaps it is morning somewhere. Let's pretend. let us start the day over and for the next 24 hours we will stay clean and sober.

I need to remember that this works both ways.

Just for today, I will try to meet my commitments. I have a chiropractor's appointment today and I have to call Darts to get a ride for net week. I am hoping by writing them here, I will remember them.

just for Today, i will re,omd myself that I have a choice, to live in my disease or live in today, not pick up no matter what. needing to find some self-acceptance. I phoned Darts yesterday and there were 14 callers a head of me. set the receiver down, finished posting and went to bed and slept for almost 10 hours. I forgot about my phone until I noticed the receiver on my desk asking it, 'What are you doing there? Of course it said, 'Why you put me here!!

Just for Today, I am going to be mindful of my time and energy. i have to go to my chiropractor's appointment and I need to go grocery shopping; but my main priority is my NA group tonight at 7 p.m. The other day I bought Korean Red Ginseng The pharmacist told me to mindful of my blood pressure; so we will see. It is to relieve stress and fatigue. not worried about stress, but really concerned about my fatigue. maybe a little stress, I keep forgetting things.
