Welcome to a new day. The day can start and end at any time. If you run into a rough patch pause and say the Serenity Prayer and start your day again.

Looks like I am on schedule, 3 pmish is my start of the day when coming to EoR.
The sun is shining and the rain hasn't got here yet. My body lied to me yesterday and is still telling me falsehoods today
Hope the sun is shining on you too.

A beautiful sunny day, not so in my apartment at the moment, I ojust post.
The sun is deceiving as it is very windy and temperatures are cooling down to 23/8 C or 74/47 F beautiful Fall weather.
Hope you are able to get out and soak up some of that Heavenly Elixir.

Just about missed out on today, better late than never. If I am forever late for that first one, I will stay clean and sober in today.
First I waited for my landlord to do the inspection on my apartment. Then I waited for the bus, two went by on my way to the bus stop.
Went to a beauty salon I had never been in before and had to wait for her to finish up with a client. Waited while two people walked in front of me on the way to the library. It never ceases to amaze me why people who pass me or walk I front of me, always seem to find it necessary to stop. Today in my haste I did ask one woman to keep moving.
Had to wait for my son to join me and help me to make up my mind as to what and where I wanted to eat. The only thing I didn't have to wait for was a taxi. When I got to my group I was asked if I wanted to chair. I said, 'It will keep me out of trouble.'. You realize in the past, all those little things would have grown into a big reason to pick up.
Just for today, I choose not to use.

Smiling, I didn't miss tonight/this morning, I was awake through it all. Looks like a miss out on some of today.
Where ever you be, take your God with. You can ask Him for direction.

Was surprised to be tired tonight after my meeting. I was talking to a friend who I had played phone tag with all day. I was just so tired I couldn't talk. It is good that she has fibromyalgia too. I went to bed and slept two hours. Now I am waking up to the wrong side of Monday morning.
I have an appointment with my heart specialist this afternoon. I want to request some new tests because I keep getting mixed messages. If my doctor says my heart is good why am I on heart Medications.
It is good to wake up 5o a new day, no matter what time you wake up. What do you do with that time?
I am listening to a gospel music tape Drea On by Ernie Haase + Signature Sound. awesome music, powerful music, with great lyrics and beautiful harmony.

This was a roll over and do it again day. Do glad I can restart my day when it is good for me.
It must have been good timing because I got two loads of laundry done
So good to see you stopped by Teiger.

Rained most of the day and then when the sun came out it was too late to go anywhere. I got thinking after the fact that I missed a 3 year anniversary.
Still have to cook my chicken. Good thing a day can start any time, night time too.

Days seem to be full and yet there seems to be a lot of me content when I look at the last couple of days.
I did shut down to some extent although I talked to a couple of friends, my sister and my son.
I have done a lot of reading, taking some me time to catch up on my library books. Don't like taking them back unread and/or overdue.
I have not been to a meeting although I am not too worried about my spiritual condition, my physical and mental has given me pause for thought. Need it all to come into balance.
I do need to go downtown today to the bank, library, market and a few places in between.
Need to go back to bed and get some rest before my PSW arrives about 7 am. What do you need to bring your day back into balance?

Everybody seemed to be early and as a result, mine was late.
The day started when someone knocked on my door about 9 am. I ordered a hand held shower on Monday and maintenance was here to install. That was the gateway to phone calls, texts, and the testing of the fire alarm. I just kept rolling over and going back to sleep. It was almost 2 pm when I dragged myself into a sitting position.
After a busy day yesterday, my body kept saying, NOT two days on a row of busy, busy, busy.

Almost run out of Saturday. Started my day three times. Have to stay out of bed for 55 min. or it will be four.
They told me rain today, but any time I surfaced, all I saw was sunshine.😘

Hope today doesn't turn out to be too long. Don't want to be too tired to go to my niece's tomorrow.
My son and my friend Theresa with her grandson are suppose to be stopping by for a visit.
There is a buffet tomorrow and not sure if I can go as I didn't sign up for anything. If I am not mistaken, it costs $10. And I think it is all you can eat.
It is always inspiring to turn my day over to my God and watch unfolds.
My meditation thought for today was "You are stronger than you think."
Hope to make it to the meeting. I imagine Darts will be busy. I am thinking I should have booked them for tomorrow although I don't know all of the family plans.
Hope you have a great holiday weekend.

It is hard to believe that October has slipped by so fast. Normally when I am not feeling well time stands still. Kept thinking hopefully, tomorrow I will feel better, only to feel worse. No family Thanksgiving calls or dinner, not even able to go to dinner at the Cafe downstairs.
One thing my meditation told me to do, remain grateful. we

My meditation thought today was not looking at how and what you endured, but how well you went through what you endured. Not sure how I said it makes sense, but I was reminded that I don't have to go through things alone. If I go through things kicking and fighting all the way, that it is okay if that is where I am at in today, it is okay, and hopefully I won't have to pick up and I will get through this 24 hours clean and sober.

It is hard to believe that 3 days disappeared...even stranger that I slept most of those days away. Ms No Sleep has never slept that long in a very long time.
God Bless.

Have been here in spirit even if I haven't been able to be here physically.
My day is always better when I connect here.

Had a double start to my day. It is what works for you that matters. Have had 3. The program works when we work a program. It helps to have one that works.

Welcome to the second day of November. Had my doubts about the day, because I was in a lot of pain. I felt as though I had a stroke and my body was twisted, my mind somewhat wharped and it took a lot of letting go to release the turmoil in my body. Some days take longer than others and I ended up reaching out and asking for help.
She didn't give me the answers, just set me on the right path. Mainly, it is about me and not the other person(s). After all these years, I still have a problem with anger.

Not often I get to say good morning and have woken up. I am generally thinking it is time to go to bed.
The only difference is that I found sleep but want to go back to bed anyway.
Hope your day is a good one no matter what you decide to do. Even if you decide to do nothing, enjoy. 😊
