Just for today, I will turn my day over to my God. My son informed me that I spent too many hours on the computer. He doesn't see it as my work, I see it as service and helping others, by helping myself. There are times though, that I have to turn my computer over to my God, to take any obsessive/compulsive behaviors and thinking away.

Just for today, I will work on my procrastination. If I don't, I will be embara$$ed. I am down to a pair of jeans and a couple of heavy sweat pants. I even wore my "only wear when you haven't done laundry" pants. They seem to want to go backwards when I want to move forward. To top it off, I wore them this morning down to the pharmacy, and they started to fall down, so I wore my jeans to my appointment today.

Just for today, I will practice patience and tolerance. I have a son in the grips of active addiction. It is hard to watch him disappear before my eyes.

Just for today, I will continue to practice patience and tolerance. My son is being quarrelsome and my allergies don't like going into a hospital. I will go see my sister and take an allergenic pill.

Just for today, I will practice saying, "No!" and mean it. It is hard being a mother and an Al-Anon member too.

Just for today, I will practice self love and not beat myself up. I keep saying, "Well I must have needed it, but waking up at 3:10 p.m. because of a phone call is not good.

The phone call was good, a reminder of my eye doctor's appointment on Wednesday. My attitude wasn't good when I heard the phone ring, and trying to get to the phone before the answering machine clicked in was not.

Just for today, I will get honest with myself and others. My doctor said, "How are you?" I told him awful! I looked at the pros and cons of going to my usual NA meeting tonight, but did an inventory and made the decision to stay home and look after myself. Don't want to be sick for Christmas.

The reason for the Season.

Just for today, I will try to organize my day so that I don't run out of steam, and can accomplish what I need to do.

Just for today, I will not let Ms. Perfection have her own way. I will try to do the best I can, in the moment, and let my God lead and direct.

Just for today, I will apply my program to my life to the best of my ability. I picked up the phone and called my chiropractor who I have procrastinated about calling. I didn't want him to touch my shoulder after getting the cortisone shot. I have been having head aches and they are a sure sign I need to see him.

Just for today, I will allow myself a time out. Not feeling on top of the world, so going to nurture the body, instead of pushing it do that extra mile. I allowed myself to roll over and go back to sleep, twice.

Just for today, I will make it simple. I need to post. I need to cook dinner. I need to make it to my NA meeting. Somewhere in there I need to do a couple of loads of laundry.

Just for today, I will give thanks for my recovery by sharing it with others. It is important that I take my recovery out of the rooms and apply it to my every day living, at home, in the community, and with family and friends. I have so much to be grateful for. The biggest being that I can still read and still walk around.
