Chipping Away at Defects of Character

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will let go of worry and fret. Doesn't get me any where and leves me with a headache. Let go and let God.

Just for today, I will let go of my anger. I have been sitting at my computer and smelling pot. My son said he was not smoking it. He said it is coming from the building. My window is closed and there doesn't seem to be any fresh air in this City. Thinking it could be metaphysical and I need to do some healing on this topic. Just because it is legal doesn't make it right. For me, that is self justification.

Just for today, I will give thanks that I am home and have had no falls. My mobility seems to improve daily, although today I haven't left my apartment. Tomorrow is my travelling day. Feeling the winter blues, so put on some music and came online to post. It helps to get out of self.

Always try to practice Step Ten morning, noon, and night. Looking at my life and seeing where I am at. As a result, I picked up the phone and called my friend Theresa.

Just for today, I am asking for patience and tolerance as I am feeling sick and tired of being tired and sick. Not a good place for me to be at. Hope to feel better by this time next week. I have been doing a meditation this morning, so will see what comes through. Need healing for my kidneys and my feet.

Just for today, I will stay out of trouble over the holidays. I will not game play, I will not push other people's buttons, I will try not to instigate an argument, in other words, I will try to do onto others as I would have others do onto me.

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will give thanks for family. Grateful for my recovery family as well as my immediate family. I will let them know that they are loved

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will accept where I am at. I just don't feel good and I am going to take myself back to bed. I will try to finish some more postings, but will accept things as they are if I can't finish them all. I had to turn off my TV because it was making too much noise.

Hope you feel better soon.

[MajestyJo]

Thanks, I did feel better.

Just for today, I will try to motivate myself and do some do things that need doing. If I can, I will walk down to the mall, if not, I will take a taxi. I know I have to go there, just can't remember why.

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I have to accept the consequences of my actions. I did and done more and then I crashed and as a result, I can't do any more in today. I was up all night and didn't go to bed until 8 a.m today. Not that I did much, I was back in my old addiction, cribbage Solitaire. Looks like God and I still have some work to do.

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I am going to watch my diet or should I say lack of one. We can abuse ourselves by eating too much OR not eating enough. Both require healthy choices, eating a balanced diet. Mine has been lacking lately, too many sweets which has affected the neuropathy in my feet. My bad, my pain, I can't allow it to dictate my life

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I am trying to practice putting into action the slogan, learn to listen, listen to learn. When I feel pain, instead of ignoring it and continuing on, making the pain worse, I stop and tak a time out.

Also trying to have patience with me and my computer. It doesn't make it easy to post, but for the most part, it is me that is down for the count and I can' blame it for my less than perfect performances. Progress, not perfection.

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will stay in the moment. I have to go and check into the fracture clinic. If I am hurting in the morning, I will go to emergency room after being at the fracture clinic. Will put my body into God's Care and let Him show me what I need for my Higher Good.

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will endorse myself. It is okay o be me, but is the me in today, who I want to be?

I need to take an inventory, always good to ask God's Help first, then ask for His help afterward to change what you don't like about yourself or what is not condusive to recovery, serenity and peace.

Just had a thought, I know that is scary. "You and me and God make Three. We can do what I can't do alone." Between you and me, we just might get it right.

[MajestyJo]

Just for today, I will not dictate my life, but I will not ignore it either. I have done exercises and prayer, so when I go off line, it will be meditation and a nap before I have to fix dinner. I will not let it get between me and my goal for today, which is to make it to my business meeting at 6 pm.
