Good Morning, you Beautiful People!
Monday is off to a good start, with a solid AA meeting -- all of the camaraderie and sharing that I need, faces to be seen and voices heard, with only bits of religiosity being the Serenity Prayer at the beginning (really, one of the best prayers written, in my opinion; the short form, anyway, the long form gets too "Christiany" by the end for me) and the closing with the Lord's Prayer/Our Father. However, I have to admit that it's interesting to note which leads call it the "Our Father" and which ones call it the Lord's prayer. We have a good handful of Catholics in our group. :~)
Anyway, back on track...
Today's list includes laundry, cleaning the bathrooms, making some calls, getting our gutters cleaned, and fixing our voicemail access. For a Monday, that's not too bad.
I'm feeling secure in my sobriety, stable in my eating practices, and a little bit anxious about those spending patterns. I feel like I was on track, and the checking balance is where it needs to be, but I am afraid that I have spent too much on the credit card. I never found my list of questions to ask myself before making a purchase, so I should put that together. And I probably should keep a running tally on my desk for weekly/monthly purchases.
[and a very long break due to a phone call with Daughter #2 to start planning the Bridal Shower for Daughter #1]
I was going to say something else, but it is lost now, hidden under those bridal shower plans. It may come back to me later. Or not. Sometimes my ADHD brain swallows things whole and never releases them.
I hope you find something beautiful today, and as always, thank you for being here!
