Just for today, I will walk in faith, that I am where I am suppose to be. I just realized I had some fear about going today to the Good Shepherd, not sure why, unless it is that I feel others are worse off than me. Even though I qualify, I feel guilty about going there. My social worker arranged it all. All I have to do is show up. I have had stomach pain, which probably means there is some anxiety there too. Quite a bag of mixed feeling, and I know it won't be as bad as my magic magnifying mind envisions.

Just for today, I am grateful. I scored big time thanks to my social worker. She is going to call and check out why I haven't heard about my new walker. It was good to have choices today. It is even better that I can make healthy choices in today.

Just for today, I will concentrate on prayer and meditation with my new cards on Trees, Shaman, and Crystals. Yesterday's meditation said my body need a cleansing and the removal of toxins in my body. I am on antibiotics, so it was fitting.

Just for today, I will try to listen to learn and learn to listen to the best of my ability. A case worker is coming to measure me for a new walker. I don't know if she is bringing one with her or just taking measurements. The one she brings with her may not be mine, it just may be a tool for doing the measurements, so I can't get my hopes up too high.

Just for today, I will share with others. Tonight is my home group in NA and I hope I can make it across the feet. The feet have been badly swollen, so it means feet up today if I want to go to a meeting tonight. I have to accept, it is what it is, adjust your thinking accordingly.

Just for today, I will forget the past, this is a brand new day. Each day is a new beginning. We can't base our today on yesterday or tomorrow. They say forgive, but don't forget. It isn't easy to forget. It always seem to be lurking around and it is hard not to pick up on it. The thought that is, not the drug. Using is not an option. That is why I say, each day is a brand new slate.

Just for today, I will be unafraid. I know I am in my God's Hands. I am hurting a lot and having trouble sitting at my compute typing. Just trying to do what I can do in the moment.

Just for today, I will try to do the do things in my life. I forgot yesterday about writing out a cheque for my bills. I am shaking and not typing well, so not sure what the writing will look like. I leave it all up to my God, not to right my cheques, but to make me alright with me.

Just for today, I have been praying for piece and contentment. I managed to get one thing done as a result of waking up feeling really good until I got on the computer. Some days are better than others. Nothing special this day, but I haven't made up my mind as to whether I am enjoying myself or not.

Just for today, I will accept what is in the moment, and then I can change. I just about had my sleeping patters down to good hours and the right time, now I have to start over again.

J is for Just for Today. All I have is today. One day's thoughts, actions, experiences, etc. Just this 24 hours. A day can start any time. I can stop any time during the day, pause and say the Serenity Prayer and start the day over again.

Just for today, I will work on my acceptance of what is in the moment. Because I was posting, I left it too late to put my carrot around the roast, so I think I will take a break and cook one on top of the stove. I don't have to like it to accept it. I do like carrots in any form and not about to throw a hissy fit, because I didn't do what I told myself what I was going to do in today.

Just for today, I will put myself on my diabetic diet. My clothes are not fitting me because I have been swollen up like a balloon. I don't know how much is swelling and how much is fat or if it is one and the same. I do love my bagels.

Just for today, I will try to be a bigger participant in my life. Sleeping the say away is not good, especially when you couldn't put an Iris Johansen book down to go to sleep.

Just for today, I will accept what is and pray that I can change things around. It is hard to say "Just for today" when your day is Just for Tonight." I cancelled Darts again and didn't go to my usual NA meeting. It is true my feet are too swollen to put on shoes, so I need to pray for what I need to change those too. Like the other day, twice now, I have pulled Get Some Rest and Dietary Change. This is my Inner Child telling me to come out and play.

Just for today, I am getting a head start on the day because if all goes as planned, it will be a busy one. I will have to stay in today, because Thursday will be something we don't even want to think of yet.

Just for today, I am going to try and get out of my building and let my fear of falling on the snow and ice not stop me from doing what I need to do. I will just have to pray and ask for what I need to be safe, besides staying home. I haven't traveled too far with my new walker. I need to walk through the fear and do it anyway.

Just for today, I will take care of my needs. Part of that is making it to my NA home group tonight. It is across the road but it is suppose to snow all day. So far it is light, so trying not to project. Stay in the moment, and accept what is.

Just for today, I will try to let my do what I need to do. My son says he gave me back my laundry card, so I have no excuse, not to do some. I can take my book down with my and if I don't get into a conversation with another patron, I will be able to read. Yesterday I never got a chance to read. When that happens I feel like something is missing. Even if I take my book to the bathroom with me, I get to read a few chosen words. If I remember rightly, I was always in too much of a rush to grab my book. I know, too much information.
