Just for today, I will be grateful. When everything falls into place and you go with the flow, things unfold as they should. Little things like having exactly the right change, getting all the green lights, thinking of someone and you get a call from them, and the list goes on and on.  |

Just for today, I will have a goal and aim toward it. I will have purpose and take pride in my accomplishments. Through my God, all things are possible. His Will, not mine be done.  |

Just for today, I will practice patience. I am waiting for my friend to come to look at my computer. He postponed his visit to 1 p.m.  |

Just for today, I will practice gratitude. I am grateful that the rain is finally here. My body has been telling me that it has been coming. After it gets here, the pain lessens to a certain extent, although it can hurt in a different way, and then I have to practice more patience and tolerance. As they say, put some gratitude into my attitude and not take my pain out on others or myself.  |

Just for today, I will be accepting of what is. I don't have to like it, sure don't feel like I lost a day. I don't like sleeping a day away, but just couldn't walk yesterday. I kept saying, "I'm going to do..., but didn't."  |

Just for today, I will not beat myself for the things I forget and for falling short of my expectations of myself. Many times we have thoughts, but we don't always follow through with them. That is when a defect of character becomes a shortcoming. Tried to do some housework today, didn't get much done, but I did try.  |

Just for today, I will remember that meeting makers make it. It was so good to get to my Al-Anon group today. I haven't been there for several weeks. I am grateful that my AA meeting is more. Additional food for the soul, can't get too much of it.  |

Just for today, I will practice patience on all the things in my life that I need to tolerate. If you pray for patience, you get lots of things to practice on. Don't remember praying, but maybe my God thought I need some more practice on tolerance.  |

Just for today, I will let go of my anger. I was so angry at the Dart's guy the other day who said he couldn't find me if he didn't know what building to go to. Today when I went, the number 565, which I gave them was right over the door to where I have my appointment. They also had the suite number, but I always make sure that I at the door at the right time. I had a few choice words for him. I couldn't believe it. They had dropped me off and picked me up twice and all of a sudden they had a problem. I need to say a prayer for him, because he is a regular staff, so I will get him again.  |

Just for today, I have made up my mind to enjoy the day no matter what happens. At the moment, I am hurting, but I am not going to let that stop my day. I have my heating pad on my back to limber it up so I can get mobile today.  |

Just for today, I will practice patience and tolerance. I don't like housework, but did get busy in my kitchen today. Have to be patient and tolerant of myself. I tried to do three things at once - read my book, watch curling, and do dishes too.  |

Just for today, I will accept what is in today. If I don't I stay stuck, and there is no way I want to stay where I am at in today and where I was yesterday. A lot of paralyzingly pain, and not able to think or work through it. The one good thing about it was that I did get sleep. I had 2 hours sleep the two days before. Catch up can be a good thing. The only thing worse than me was my computer. It was so slow and it takes a lot of patience to use it.  |

Just for today, I will apply the program to my life. It is a living program and applicable to all areas of my life, be it mental, emotional, spiritual, and/or physical. I have to have a sense of humor and laugh at myself at times. I know, and often need to heed my own words. So easy to help others and ignore your own issues.  |

Just for today, I will give thanks for the healing and help I got at the Holistic Center today. It has been difficult to walk lately, and I feel so much better. I know I will need another treatment at least before it gets any better.  |

Just for today, I will lower my expectations and raise my level of acceptance. It is what it is and I am powerless over people, places, and things.  |

Just for today, I will give myself a hug. I am lovable and deserving of love. When I meet people, especially new ones, I always say, "Do you do hugs?" I don't want to invade there space. Sometimes they have trouble reaching out a hand to connect with you. I was told, "You are only half a hand shake you know.  |

Just for today, I ask for help in letting go of resentments. Had a resentment against my son for waking me up this morning when I had only slept for 2 hours. I have been awak all day, and every time I laid down, I couldn't seem to stay down. It was ironic, seeing as I was up, I decided to follow through on my plans and went to a noon meeting and then grocery shopping. At the meeting they read Freedom from Bondage and talks about Step Three. The reading in the Big Book was Step 3 and the beginning of Step 4. Needless to say, it was what I needed to hear. Just for today, I will practice the principles of the program on all of my affairs.  |

Just for today, I will have acceptance of what is in the moment. I will practice my program and give thanks that it is there for me at this time. I have to accept my son's disease as well as my own. I also need to remember that I qualify for both sides of the street.  |

. I will be back looking for Lin and others.
