Just for today, I will share with others. Tonight is my home group in NA and I hope I can make it across the feet. The feet have been badly swollen, so it means feet up today if I want to go to a meeting tonight. I have to accept, it is what it is, adjust your thinking accordingly.

Just for today, I will forget the past. I will not live my life with eyes focused on the past and miss out on what is happening in today. When I project into the future, I am missing out on today. I have to live in the moment and let go and let God.

MajestyJo · 01-28-2018, 11:53 AM

Just for today, I will ask for patience. Pay day is tomorrow!

MajestyJo · 01-29-2018, 01:00 PM

Just for today, I will be unafraid. I know I am in my God's Hands. I am hurting a lot and having trouble sitting at my compute typing. Just trying to do what I can do in the moment.

MajestyJo · 01-30-2018, 04:43 PM

Just for today, I will try to do the do things in my life. I forgot yesterday about writing out a cheque for my bills. I am shaking and not typing well, so not sure what the writing will look like. I leave it all up to my God, not to right my cheques, but to make me alright with me.

MajestyJo · 01-31-2018, 05:16 PM

Just for today, I have been praying for piece and contentment. I managed to get one thing done as a result of waking up feeling really good until I got on the computer.
Some days are better than others. Nothing special this day, but I haven't made up my mind as to whether I am enjoying myself or not.

MajestyJo · 02-01-2018, 08:19 AM

Just for today, I will accept what is in the moment, and then I can change. I just about had my sleeping patters down to good hours and the right time, now I have to start over again.

MajestyJo · 02-03-2018, 07:34 PM

Just for today, I will work on my acceptance of what is in the moment. Because I was posting, I left it too late to put my carrot around the roast, so I think I will take a break and cook one on top of the stove. I don't have to like it to accept it. I do like carrots in any form and not about to throw a hissy fit, because I didn't do what I told myself what I was going to do in today.

Just for today, I will put myself on my diabetic diet. My clothes are not fitting me because I have been swollen up like a balloon. I don't know how much is swelling and how much is fat or if it is one and the same. I do love my bagels.

MajestyJo · 02-05-2018, 10:04 PM

Just for today, I will try to be a bigger participant in my life. Sleeping the say away is not good, especially when you couldn't put an Iris Johansen book down to go to sleep.

MajestyJo · 02-06-2018, 10:12 PM

Just for today, I will accept what is and pray that I can change things around. It is hard to say "Just for today" when your day is Just for Tonight." I cancelled Darts again and didn't go to my usual NA meeting. It is true my feet are too swollen to put on shoes, so I need to pray for what I need to change those too. Like the other day, twice now, I have pulled Get Some Rest and Dietary Change.

This is my Inner Child telling me to come out and play.

MajestyJo · 02-07-2018, 12:56 AM

Just for today, I am getting a head start on the day because if all goes as planned, it will be a busy one. I will have to stay in today, because Thursday will be something we don't even want to think of yet.

MajestyJo · 02-08-2018, 07:58 AM

Just for today, I am going to try and get out of my building and let my fear of falling on the snow and ice not stop me from doing what I need to do. I will just have to pray and ask for what I need to be safe, besides staying home. I haven't traveled too far with my new walker. I need to walk through the fear and do it anyway.

MajestyJo · 02-09-2018, 03:29 PM

Just for today, I will take care of my needs. Part of that is making it to my NA home group tonight. It is across the road but it is suppose to snow all day. So far it is light, so trying not to project. Stay in the moment, and accept what is.

MajestyJo · 02-10-2018, 08:40 AM

Just for today, I will try to let my do what I need to do. My son says he gave me back my laundry card, so I have no excuse, not to do some. I can take my book down with my and if I don't get into a conversation with another patron, I will be able to read. Yesterday I never got a chance to read. When that happens I feel like something is missing. Even if I take my book to the bathroom with me, I get to read a few chosen words. If I remember rightly, I was always in too much of a rush to grab my book. I know, too much information.
