Just for today, I will try to make a more conscious effort to be here. I am hurting in the moment and have to leave shortly, but hope to come back soon

I pray you feel better soon.

Just for today, I will try to be honest with myself and not discount my feelings. I will not discount them or think them not worthy, it is okay to be me.

Just for today, I am practicing patience and tolerance with my son as well as with myself. You seldom get practice one without the other.

Just for today, I will remind myself that even though I miss a day posting, the defects of character are still there. This is a one day at a time program. It is a phrase I don't like because I find that too many people use as an excuse. I am only human! My answer is, "So, what are you going to do about it." God and I are still working on this.

Just for today, I will give thanks for my program. I was feeling very hopeless and powerless, and the pain seems to be the last straw and very overwhelming. Don't tale any narcotics for the pain and today I found myself wanting something that would take the pain all away. Having thought and said the words, I did a meditation and came on line.I am grateful that I got some sleep. I don't think I could have handled it without it. It is a good thing my God was there, without Him, not sure what I would do.

Just for today, I will try to be more God centered and less I centered. I have been concentrating on my pain and my boo boon and trying to meditate and ask for healing and come on line to share with others, my hope not my depression.

Just for Today, I will practice my patience and tolerance. Along with that my acceptance of what is. Bot in a very good space, but it is my own fault that I am here. Too many sweets, knowing the do and don'ts and did it an way.

Just for today, I will practice patience and tolerance with myself. I took the skin off the top of my blister. I thought I was removing Inadine, but it was me. I didn't feel it then, but the after affects are scary. I have had two nurses say that they are fighting to save my foot. I have one big open wound now.

Just for today, I will let my frustration go. Even if I could walk, I couldn't. It is freezing rain out and really nasty.

I have picked up a migraine from somewhere, and I need to let it go. I feel like only the left side of my brain is working and it hurts. Time to get off the computer and go do some meditations.

MajestyJo 02-15-2019 10:09 PM

Just for today, I need to find some acceptance. I finally broke down and asked for a wheelchair. I need to find it fast as it it arriving on Wednesday. Not much room for one in my apartment, but good for my son to push me to the mall and I can use it to go to meetings.

Your son sounds like he's a blessing to you. Thank you for caring and sharing.

MajestyJo 02-17-2019 01:52 PM

Just for today, I will continue to work on my acceptance. My health isn't good, and I don't feel like I am in a good space. Hope I get to move. If I can't, I will just have to accept it is not meant to be.

MajestyJo 02-18-2019 10:02 PM

Just for today, I will pray for the willingness to be willing to go to sleep. I thought I accepted the fact that I was prepared to die in my sleep if it were to happen as a result of my sleep apnea and my decision not to get the apparatus to wear when I am sleeping. Things are okay with me and my God, and I pray for His Divine Will for my life and I am still here, so He seems to have more faith in me than what I have for myself.

MajestyJo 02-19-2019 09:23 PM

Just for today, I will recognize where I am at, do a Step Ten. My feet are less swollen, but they are still swollen and I need to respect them and not overdo things, like being on the computer for too long at one time.

When I start to feel better, I always think I should be doing, when I should be using the slogan, Easy Does IT. Easy does it, but do it as they say in the rooms of recovery here in Ontario, Canada.

MajestyJo 02-20-2019 03:10 PM

Just for today, I need to look at things with a new perception. My wheel chair arrived today, so I will have to learn to adapt my life style. I can see a lot of change happening in my life.

Just for today, I will be honest with others, but more importantly, I will be honest with myself.Not feeling too well, having problems posting.

MajestyJo 02-22-2019 11:41 PM

Just for today,I will accept my past. I wouldn't be who I am in today, if I hadn't gone through what I went through, to get to where I am in today. That goes for prior to recovery and afterward as I progress in recovery.

MajestyJo 02-24-2019 07:26 PM

Just for today, I will make a conscious contact with my God by doing meditation.

Remembering what my sponsor told me years ago, I don't care who your Higher Power is as long as it is not you.

Just for today, I will continue to work on my acceptance seeing as I slept through ALL OF YESTERDAY. I was hoping to be kept in the hospital another day,but had to accept going home. Wanted to make sure they had got to the bottom of things and why I ended up there. I did end up there, now I am home and have to do my part. They have to hae done their part as I have been on the computer for over 3 hours and my feet are not swollen. This is a good thing because I sat at the coffee shop for an hour after my hour and a half meeting. Sitting for that long use to cause my feet and ankles to swell into a balloon. My only problem and side affect have been muscle spasms, so that means eating properly and taking magnesium.

Acceptance is the key to my recovery in today. If Idon't accept, I don't do my part.

Just for today. I will give thanks for all the prayers that have been sent my way.I need to remember that I didn't get sober alone and I don't stay sober alone. I must be open to receive. Goodness is all around me. It is important to have an open mind and attitude to receive it.

Just for today, I will practice my patience on myself and on my son. Thought thought of moving is scary. My friend Matt says he will help me get organized on the weekend.

Just for today, I will work through my pain instead of trying to suppress it and/or ignore it, and will get to the root of the issue(s) at hand. Many I posted about tonight as a result of going to my group and reading some of the posts that I have made in the past. This allows me to look at where I am at in today.

Just realized I forgot my dinner medication. Whoops! Sometimes, there are pills that I need, including my heart medication.

Just for today, I will focus on others which will help me to get out of self and my own pain.

MajestyJo 03-10-2019 11:48 PM

Just for today, I will listen to my body. I almost ended up in the hospital where my friend is and where I was a week ago. If I go into ER. I think I will try another hospital.

My heart has been making noises and it is suppose to murmure not shout at me.

I hope all is well with you ��

MajestyJo 07-04-2019 12:28 PM

Just for today, I will accept what is in the moment, knowing it is subject to change. It can only change if I have a willingness to change. I have had to look at what is coming between me and where I know my God would have me be. I know that all I am asked to do is be the best me I can be in today. Some days I fall short, it isn't that I don't know, I find my self very short on energy and motivation.

MajestyJo 08-20-2019 07:53 PM

Just for today, I will be grateful then I got on the site and not look at the difficulties getting here. I don't practice my patience and tolerance and know that I am better for having me in here and making the effort. I

MajestyJo 08-31-2019 11:01 PM

Just for today, I will have a better perspective on things. I will let go with my anger and it's a danger to my sobriety. I can't nut in my cell phone and just because it does not do what I wanted to when I wanted to do, I can't let it tick me off and I want to throw it. God and I are continually working on this.

Looked for a cord for my computer but it isn't worth the price of a new cord.

Took myself out for brunch, scrambled eggs, sausage, tater tots, toast, marmalade for $3. needed the energy to go shopping and run errands. Now I am on a computer at the library. Wouldn't you know it, I have a headache.

So far picked up laundry money, bought new cards Animal Kin Oracle. and have booked into Tammy's site.

Still have to find some books to read, get some bagels, and take a walk in Dollarama.

Just found a long time friend, a lady I use to work with, has stage 4 lung cancer. Please say a prayer for Jan.

Hope your day is a good one.

Just for today, I am praying for patience and tolerance. I have lost posts, my screen has been jumping around and doing weird things. I tried to play pool and it was embarrassing.

Came on the internet and my patience was left behind in the community room.
Wrote this yesterday. Still working on the patiencce. Having a hard time using the keyboard here at the library. The space bar sticks and only works if you hit it in the right spot. :}

dwmoeller 04-20-2020 12:46 PM

Just for today, I will take a deep breath and talk to my God whenever I feel frustrated.

Just for today, I will choose recovery. I will take care of myself. Just for Today!
