just for today, I will smile and accept things as they come my way. Instead pf getting angry at my computer or at it's operator, we will just accept things as they come.

MajestyJo · 07-08-2018, 05:07 AM

Just for Today, I will try to stay positive. I will try to stay in today. If God leads you to it, He will see you through it.

MajestyJo · 07-09-2018, 09:29 AM

Just for Today, i will listen to the messages that come to me. The message so far this morning is about God's Will for my path. I have also had the thought to call my friend to see if she wants to run away from home with me.

MajestyJo · 07-11-2018, 01:14 AM

Just for today and tomorrow too, I will have to pull out some spiritual principles to deal with others and especially working my program on me. It isn't about others, it is about me and my attitude.

MajestyJo · 07-12-2018, 07:48 PM

Just for today,I will relax and allow myself to have fun. There is a couple of camp out coming up in August, one in AA and one in NA. my body doesn't do camping these days, I can have fun in others ways. I just have to accept what is in today and have fun anyway. As the saying goes, we can have as much fun as we give ourselves permission to have. I keep meaning to find that park bench and sit and enjoy the great out doors, or just enjoy some quiet if I am lucky and I can bring my book.

MajestyJo · 07-13-2018, 12:29 PM

Just for today, I will allow my body to rest. i will recognize that it went through some trauma yesterday, and I will give it time to heal. That doesn't mean I won't try ti walk downtown, as my mental state is anxious to return my overdue book.

MajestyJo · 07-14-2018, 05:28 PM

Just for today, i will try to not be so hard on myself. I wanted to go to my bed, but wanted to be responsible and take my overdue books back. i apologized for them being late, I had been in the hospital and then recouping from being there and he waived my fees, all $1.25. I thought it would be about $3-5., so I was pleased and surprised.I took 3 books back and one was an express book. The sad thing was, only read one of them.

MajestyJo · 07-15-2018, 01:21 PM

Just for Today, I am hoping to set some time aside to catch up on my reading. It gets left behind when tennis is on.

My goal for today is to get to the NA meeting tonight. I can always take my book for when I am waiting for Darts.

MajestyJo · 07-16-2018, 09:00 PM

Just for today, I will try for patience and tolerance with myself. With all the times I have prayed for this, I remind myself it is one day at a time. Each day is a new beginning. it isn't what I did in the past that matters it is how I live in today.

had a big sleep this afternoon and want more sleep in the moment. This is all bcause I chose not to sleep last night, but to sit up and read. The sad new is that I have 3 more books by the same author.

MajestyJo · 07-18-2018, 12:02 AM

just for today and tomorrow too, looking for acceptance of what is, not as I would have it be. Accepting of my limitations and stop being so hard on myself.

MajestyJo · 07-19-2018, 04:41 PM

Just for today, I wish health, happiness, and prosperity. They say pray and ask for them, what you would like for yourself. I wonder if they would like some acceptance, patience, tolerance, etc.

MajestyJo · 07-20-2018, 10:26 PM

Just for today, I will pray for patience and tolerance. i know that according to the program, anything that annoys me, is a reflection of what is within me. Tonight I felt someone was intruding in my space, so as they say, it take one to know one. God and I still have a lot of work to do.

MajestyJo · 07-21-2018, 09:11 PM

Just for today, I am wishing for a life, not wishing it a way. Don't like sleeping so much, feel like my life was passing me by. Slept for 13 hours, which is ridicules for someone who hardly ever sleeps. Even if I do need it, it iss too much.

MajestyJo · 07-22-2018, 10:47 PM

just for today, I m trying to accept the tolerance that was bestowed on my as a result of the patience I prayed and asked for patience and tolerance, and what do I do? I woke up at 4.30 p.m. today instead of the 5 p.m. of yesterday. Yesterday I took 30 minutes to hry out of bed, today, it only took 20, so I guess I should look at it as improvement.

MajestyJo · 07-23-2018, 04:07 PM

D is for Denial. I have been known to say that I am the Queen of De-ni-al. I am grateful for the program. it has a way of taking those walls down or makes them transparent.
