Just for today, I ask for the healing I need and pray that my son reaches out and gets what he needs.

i feel like a load has been lifted, but just living in the moment, in the day and I know the Good Orderly Direction will be there.

jusst for today, I need to stay off my computer and do a TV marathon to catch up on my recorded cooking shows.

Had a 5 hour nap to rejuvenate and have been on the computer for 3 hours and now I am going back to Facebook.

Here I am into Thursday and I feel like I am still in Tuesday.

MajestyJo · 07-27-2018, 10:32 PM

Just for today, I will be open to the love and support of the fellowship. I will be willing to receive what I need for my recovery. A word that came to mind today was balance.

MajestyJo · 07-28-2018, 11:22 AM

Just for today, I will ask for the energy to do what I need to do for myself today. Mother Hubbard's kitchen is bare. I got woke up and had an early start to the day by my standards, now I am feeling like going back to my bed. Perhaps it is okay to do that and recharge and go shopping this afternoon. This is one great big care bear.

MajestyJo · 07-29-2018, 09:35 PM

Just for today, I will remember that my God will do for me what I can't do for myself. not having a good day. Have wanted to quit, but kept plodding along. I keep hearing, you made the commitment, you are responsible. So we are trying, and doing the best we can. Maybe one day I will believe it every day.

MajestyJo · 07-30-2018, 12:23 PM

Just trying to be in the moment and do the nest right thing so I can make it to my chiropractor's appointment. Have been having headaches so really need to go, not ignore the pain like I normally do.

MajestyJo · 07-31-2018, 10:35 AM

Just for today, I am going to make a point of connecting with people. I should have done it yesterday. Today I had a sneezing fit and my nose wants to run off my face, so it will have to be by phone, not one on one. If things don't improve, might not make it to my Tuesday group. my newcomer who I took there has a bus pass to get there on her own. She chose to come home on her own last week, instead of leaving early with me on DARTS. That is good.

MajestyJo · 08-01-2018, 02:28 AM

Just for today, I pray for some patience and tolerance. I slept all day and have to find some sleep before I have to leave today. My place is being sprayed,and I have to leave for several hours. I do need to go to the library and the pharmacy to return my docette (something I should have done yesterday, but because I slept the day away, it didn't happen). I need to get done what I need to get done, just for today.

MajestyJo · 08-02-2018, 01:13 PM

just for today, still working on patience and tolerance. Opened my mouth and was told I shouldn't have when I tried to set a boundary.

dwmoeller · 08-03-2018, 08:37 AM

Just for today, I will try to live through only this day. I will not try to tackle all of my problems at once.

MajestyJo · 08-03-2018, 11:27 PM

just for today, maybe because I started the day late, it has been a very good day. I think I I am still on acceptance. We read Self-Acceptance pamphlet at my group tonight. I thought, maybe Someone is sending you a big Hint. So you put on weight, it is your bagels, quit with the denial. Get over it already!!! Do something about it.

MajestyJo · 08-04-2018, 05:50 AM

Just for today, I need to be productive and do some laundry. I think I have some bagels being saved at the pharmacy if she hasn't given up me. Instead of procrastinating, I will try to get busy and do. After last night's posting, I should be topped up and overflowing.

MajestyJo · 08-06-2018, 11:33 PM

Just for today, I will continue to work on my patience. I opened my mouth on the elevator and told a gentleman who reeked of alcohol, that I wasn't appreciative of his actions. The elevator went down to the basement, and the up button was pushed, and he proceeded to justify his actions, and I saw myself.

MajestyJo · 08-08-2018, 02:56 PM

Hust for today, I have practiced being cordial and I think I will continue doing so.
The thunder started for the storm, so going to politely say goodbye.

MajestyJo · 08-09-2018, 11:57 AM

Just for today, trying to practice my patience and stay in the moment. i had thought of going to my AA meeting, but they have not arrived yet, so it is too late to go. Guess that means I can give in and rest my body which is geatting tired and sore, and like down on my bed to see if it needs sleep as well as rest. I would like to finish my express book. So it is also patience with myself as well as with others.
