Recycler CI 8:55pm EST
Hi Pro Buddies!
This morning at the gym I did my cardio, stretching, and ab exercises. Later, I spilled make-up on my dress; fortunately I had another outfit that I could wear. My dress is stained, but I have washed it tonight, and will try to fix it this weekend.
At work this morning I kept going on my Deadline and Most Urgent tasks. At lunch I went to a meeting offsite. In the afternoon, I progressed on my assignment list as I could. In the morning I hope the office will be quiet so I can knock off more stuff from my assignment list.
After work I came by the condo & started a load of clothes to wash, before meeting with a group to have dinner. After class tonight, I wrote an email to a friend, and am now doing my CI. I hope to go to sleep soon.
Have a great night, everyone! :)

Show up, pay attention (done) speak truth, let go of outcome (trying)
I am afraid to be happy because I am afraid I will jinx it. I wrote my report, will fax summary and take in hard copy tommorrow. I should be happy that PA seems to be helping, but I feel like , something must be wrong. so I really have to watch out for self sabatoge. Before I turned to food, etc. there was a time I did not have as much an issue with procratination, but it was so long ago. Now I feel like Joyce Meyers, she said "I don't feel right unless I feel wrong". I suppose I felt that way with the food, and one day at a time I have a daily reprive, so why do I limit my HP? If he could help me with food, why not PA? I guess because I think I should be able to do it alone?
oh well, grateful for now, thanks for being here, now Walk, turn son over to my HP.

OCz one more step!
I read today's reply from Radiance to the "Promises of Recovery" about writing in present, in affirmative and in first person... here's my proposal for today opening message from Clement:
"Today I will know a new freedom from dread and avoidance and escape and I will experience a new lightness of tasks"
I thank God for putting me into this path and surround me with you, I feel his working and loving hand in this pages!
Today I will review my whole list of pendings. I will break them down by topics and I will share the list with my manager after asking for his help yesterday to define priorities together.
I'll come back with the list in a while after I have grouped it all (right now it's in a paper and with no particular order)
living one step at a time!

I love to read recovery gifts. I am happy for you. Thanks for sharing. Vic

"fall down seven times, get up eight" - japanese proverb
Spirit 10/14
Good morning all.
I wanted to share this passage from the big book that is a great vision for our recovery. Starting on page 87 last paragraph "As we go through the day we pause, when agitated or doubtful, and ask for the right thought or action.....We procrastinators are undiciplined. So we let God discipline....There is action and more action. Faith without works is dead." This is the share from T-Angel on our morning call.

re: discipline
> We procrastinators are undisciplined. So we let God discipline
