clement ci - day 174 attempting abstinence, 94 from self

I have to tell you a bumper sticker i saw:

Yesterday is gone.
Tomorrow has not yet come.
And today's a B*TCH!

lol

Abstinence from unplanned time.

  • The one thing, the only thing, i can do impulsively is write something on my todo list.
  • The one thing, the only thing, i can do off plan is recovery, something to maintain my sobriety, when tempted. I have come to believe that it is more important to maintain sobriety than to get things done.

Abstinence from relying on self. AA Big Book says to rely on God. Quoted in my bookmarks : scroll down to "AA Big Book on fears : relying on God not self-reliance:"

THINGS I COULD HAVE DONE BETTER

THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR (everything i "did well" comes from god, either thru gifts he's given me or the way he's transformed me)

Mole's check in

I love your starters, jalla. Such positive, calming and confirming and beautiful starts to the day.

i should be working by now - it is after nine. So this is a check in without a list. An intention, let's say - before I block off the Internet. Pom break tasks are what i need here and now: rabbit, stack washing up, weeding, make tea, 

1. Remove internet

Sign on Bedroom door, THIS ROOM IS HAVING A REST UNTIL 12 to stop myself from going in and disturbing it. 

2 put sign on living room door NO ENTRY TIL AFTER 12 to keep myself from lounging 

And I will come back at twelve to work out the rest of the day.

THINGS I DID WELL TODAY

Wrote and took measured breaks 

Recorded insights 

THINGS I COULD HAVE DONE BETTER

yesterday I was going to put practice under this heading, because I failed to reach the skill level,I had hoped. But in fact, I persevered, did as well as I could, and gained insights into the ways it was difficult for me and perhaps that is actually something I did well. Being able to do something better and wishing one could have done something better are two different things. 

On the other hand I procrastinated about emails, podcast and poems and they all should be under this heading. 

THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR 

The welcoming of  TLC and prov  

Forgetmenots are out.
