Haha, way to bring us New Kids on the Block, ms!!
Ok, this is my first time using the daily forum and I'm very excited about my willingness.
I have a master list but the most important things for today (trying to keep it to 2 bigger things and 1 small, b/c otherwise I get overwhelmed and get nothing done):
1) Finish Grow App
2) Order Irv & Shelley's
3) Talk to KaraDONE4) Contact Jeneath
Thanks!
(so how does this work - we check in the next day or at the end of the day to say how it went?)
Vic 12/20/12 Thursday
show up (done), cal, exer.
I have "worn myself out" avoiding today. p 79 bb says:
"Reminding ourselves that we have decided to go to any lengths
to find a spiritual experience, we ask that we be given strength and
direction to do the right thing, no matter what the personal
consequences may be. "
The "right thing" for me to do is make my call. Need to be humble do whatever it takes.thx
Vic, you're awesome. Thanks
Vic, you're awesome. Thanks for bringing the bb into it. Hope to talk sometime!

Progress, not perfection.
Consistency over emergencies.
Do the thing that feels healthy, not "shouldy" or escapist.

Happy Thursday! One more day then I'm off until next Friday. I'm a bit stressed over Christmas, just found out daughter-in-law backed out of having family party at her house, so it will be at my house! That's ok, I have plenty of time to get ready, and she has to work all weekend and on Christmas Day so I don't mind doing it. But still. It's a stressor. And I'm not feeling my best lately, hoping the doctor will have some suggestions when I hear back from my yearly physical test results. OK, enough whining but thanks for being here so I can whine to you guys. Or whinge for those of you in the UK and Oz.
I went to the gym this morning, had a moderately easy workout, and I've done email/calendar and attended one meeting. My todo list is made, so here goes. I have a couple of straightforward tasks to begin with and this afternoon will be spent in on some newer and more difficult projects. I will leave on time today as I have to stop by the pet store. OK here goes. I'll check back if I get stuck.

Night Rexroth
@Rexroth
You've almost finished your life plan?
Wow.
I haven't even planned out the next hour, never mind the day/week/month/year.
I supposed that if I asked higherpower for some direction, and wrote it down ...
... I might actually have some direction in my life.
I'll contemplate that.
Thanks movingalong
Thanks movingalong
My life plan is what I want to do in my life now and an idea of what I want to achieve over the next year. I've nearly finished it only because I had done most of it before.
Regards Rexroth
Thank you to "ms" for starting us off today!
LOL at "synchronized thread-starting"
yes we've all been in sync with enthusiasm this week.
had you already started
had you already started today movingalong? haha oh dear, I'm sure I checked there wasn't another one first......
no ...
Hi "Ms"!
You and Mole both started Thursday threads simultaneously -- they were dated about 5 minutes apart. There wasn't any way either of you could have seen the other. After this was discovered, Mole changed Mole's threadstarter to say Friday.
Completely unrelated to this ... Mole and I both started Tuesday threads. But the Tuesday duplicate was my error ... because Mole's Tuesday had already been going for hours and I simply didn't notice. When I discovered my error, I deleted mine and then used the same thread starter for a new Wednesday thread. That is the threadstarter with Chickadee's picture of the hands holding a young growing plant.
These things happen from time to time, and it's no big deal.
We get an opportunity to embrace nonperfectionism.
oh I wasn't offended I was
oh I wasn't offended I was just checking I hadn't stepped on anyones toes. x
Mole's check-in
Thanks for the starter, movingalong - I have taken up your suggestion of moving mine to Friday. Perhaps we could get this registered as an Olympic sport. What do you think? Synchronised Thread Starting - it has a certain ring to it!
