Beautiful day here in L.A.  Going for a run and then kid stuff and some work. Intend to work on my backlog and some current projects too. Have a great Saturday everyone.

Had a dear friend tell me today that God/Universe put me in PA for a reason -- so it would free me up to do God/Universe's will and be an instrument of that will. Can ask myself before I begin doing something that will doing this allow me to serve as an instrument of God/Universe's will? Not my will...which I used to ask myself when I had "my goals" list & that never seemed to motivate me but the higher power goals.

Just one reason I am grateful to be here.

Best to everyone, tracy-la

I edited the subject line so it didn't look like there were two day starters (you had the date in the subject rather than your forum name).

Thanks! have a good night.

Show up (done) , think it through.

  Thanks for the starter Edge, nice way to start a Saturday.

Saw the quote:

"The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken." ----- Samuel Johnson

Grateful to be more conscious of my "slips". Clean kitchen at night is more or less a habit after 1+ year in CLA-and 1+ year of practise no matter what- one of my basic 4 daily habits. After 2 years, you would think it would be automatic, but iit is not- it is only when I practise consistency and intention does it come close to being automatic, otherwise I go right back -it only takes 3 days to go back- it is amazing.And more amazing I have choice now before it is too late. Waking up to a mess sort of made me feel like my whole life was a mess.

Thanks for being here- awareness, intention, consistency, back on track, one day at a time, support, empathy, understanding, acceptance, start over every day or 100 times a day, what a miracle and hope. Someone once said "What happens in Vagueness, stays in Vagueness"- so true for me.

Thanks for sharing your

Happy Weekend!  I am working tonight and have a busy day today but I am so happy to be feeling better that I don't care. 

First thing, make a grocery list and a plan for the day, including some time to rest before work at 9 pm.
