Grateful for my day of sobriety. I managed to get through the day without losing it.
Grateful that I was able to walk to my NA group tonight. My feet pained all afternoon and there was no way I was going to let them keep me from another meeting.
Grateful that I can apply the program and things come back to the right size. As the NA reading said today, "Some of us seem to make mountains out of molehills with our problems." I use to say, "My magic, magnifying mind and my cotton picking fingers of other people and things that are none of my business."
Grateful that I was able to communicate with my doctor, even though things were rushed as my appointment ate into his lunch hour.
Grateful that he is willing to look for a solution. I am having problems of letting go of what has worked for most of the last 25 years, and I don't want to let go and try something new, that I have already vetoed. He wants to up my Lyrica, the medication that the staff at the hospital I went to, asked me to take 2 instead of 3, because it caused me head aches. More will be revealed, I will trust the process. I did a meditation earlier today and got the vision card and knowing cards, so I know I will get what I need when I need it.
Grateful for bagels. Especially cinnamon and raisin bagels, they were the only thing I ate today. I had other choices but either didn't want to make them or eat them.
Grateful that I can take my procrastination (laundry) and sloth (which is another word for procrastination). Just don't have the energy to do, so need to work on that. I am overdue for a walk down to the mall. The snow and rain did a great number on me and I need to reach out and ask for help.
Grateful for 12 Step programs. Without them, I don't think I would be living now.
Grateful that through the programs, I come to a new understanding of my God. Most days, He is too big to fit in church.
Grateful for the food I do have to eat and the roof I have over my head.
Grateful for those who walk this journey with me. God Bless.
