Ok.. Praise God… so, how about each day, coming back to the post, and state how that was achieved, for that day, or week… etc. which ever feels comfortable to you.

oic. ok then. =)
i start from today though - anger was controlled. and open myself to love :p

My goal, which should be easy to achieve, is to stop drinking.

My goal is to get all my work and home tasks done each day.

ALL? HOw about just the most important?

I need to make phone calls at least once a week and to go to the AA meeting on fridays, I have yet to go to one

I did 8/17 tasks for the day. (The tasks are small, like do the dishes - which I haven’t done.) But I will still be able to do more. It is only 8:00pm here.

I really took the advice given to me yesterday and I tried to start getting myself organized this morning. I now have a book where I will keep track of the tasks for each day and how many I get done so I can see if there is improvement. I think that will help.

Hi all. I got 10/17 tasks done yesterday which is 59%. I think that’s not too bad for a first day. Today I will attempt to ‘improve my score’. I think this way at least I can keep track of how I’m doing and look back to see what I’ve done and to see if I’m getting more diligent and efficient.

My first goal is to write daily. With that in mind, I reach for my second goal, which is to maneuver the cursor successfully over the X in the upper right of my monitor and to click the mouse. I’m trying the second goal first. If I don’t reply to my next shout or make anymore replies for awhile, then I accomplished my second goal and will move on to the first. Here goes..

Hi everyone. Today I got 11/17 tasks done today which is 64%. So although that is not awesome, it is better than yesterday. We will see how tomorrow goes.

I got 79% of my tasks done today. Why is no one telling me good job? No one cares…

Wow Cell, Thats super! did you give yourself a little reward ? This will give you some ideas http://help.com/post/172150-24-ways-t…

Everyone, Silverwings has asked me to take over her post for her until she returns so as Sans said.. here goes :)

Hi Warren, I think your looking too far ahead buddy. I tend to do this too. Looking at the end result or the big picture can be overwhelming to keep us stuck where we are. Once you take the classes you may change your mind or another avenue may open up where you wont want to join the military , One step at a time.

Sans, My friend and mentor,Hows the writing been coming along? I see from the map your in Texas now? MMMmm, that makes me a little concerned that something could be distracting you from your writing being out of your home environment. Dont get me wrong , I have lots of faith in you, you know that. Just keeping you on reminded.

since I replied to this post, Now i have to take my own advice.funny:D and very hard to do. I could not go to AA meeting friday b/c of it being halloween so this friday it is. I hope someone here can help give me a push. I’m going to make my phone calls first thing in the am even though I dont hold out much hope for good results since businesses always think they are right.argh.especially the bank and the Irs..Wish me luck and pray if you do,thanks,Kim

Good luck everyone, take one day at a time , keep me posted and Pray for Silverwings to return to us soon :)

GREAT JOB, CELL! I thought 64% was good, but wasn’t online to tell you so. 79% is phenomenal.

Kim! Unless you live in Antarctica, there should be meetings every day of the week.. maybe not the one you wanted to attend, but somewhere. Now stop making excuses and get your *** in gear!

Sans, YOu know my position. NO car, little money and Im scared. Or do you see these things as just excuses?

It’s the scared part that makes it difficult.

I’m sure you could find a way to get there. If you call they may even be able to help you out.

Yesterday was the worst day ever! I only got 25% of what I wanted to do done.

I felt super sick, yesterday so I marked that in the little book I’m keeping (as an explanation note for when I look back on things/or as an excuse…). I went to bed at like 8:30 yesterday I felt so sick. I’m pregnant and I was really freaked out that something was wrong with the baby. But today I feel better.

I hope today will be a better day.

Cell, {{HUGS} It’s so good you keep a record to reflect on. that in itself is progress. If it makes you feel better I got about the same done:/ just one of those days, thank God we have another chance with a new day, fresh and full of possibilities.

I was thinking today that if I didn’t have a mom I would want to adopt you for my mom. You are very encouraging.

I had a much better day today, even though I slept 11 hours at night and another 3hrs during the day. I still got 78% done the things on my list. I feel I have worked very hard today. A much better day!

Awee , your so sweet :) and Good! Keep up the good work, one day at time

How is everyone doing? i finally called the irs today, then I wrote them a letter. This was real progress for me since Im very depressed.Now your turn

What’s depressing you?

I got 65% of my tasks done today which isn’t too bad, but now I can’t sleep at all! AHHH! What is going on with my body?!

That’s great you called.

[quote Cell]I got 65% of my tasks done today which isn’t too bad, but now I can’t sleep at all! AHHH! What is going on with my body?![/quote not bad at all :D YOUr pregnant right? that could be the reason your not sleeping. do you exercize?

Nope. I have to be very careful because I lost my last baby (a miscarriage) and with my first child they had to take her out 6 weeks early because I was very sick. I don’t seem to do very well pregnant. When I went swimming and did laps I started bleeding. When I went for a walk with my family my feet got swollen. The swelling was the problem with my first pregnancy, as I got eclampsia and had a seizure because my brain tissue was swollen.

Oh HOney, I had not idea. I will pray for you

Thanks.

How are things going with you?

[quote Cell]Thanks.

How are things going with you?[/quote In general, terrible. but im off to the psych tomorrow, hopefully she will get me back on my meds. About getting things done- I have to make another call Im dreading. maybe friday I will do that.

Sorry Cell, how was your day?

Why not tomorrow? There’s no time like the present, you know.

Back on meds is a very good idea.

Tomorrow I have the doctor and grocery shopping. the condition Im in Im lucky if i get one thing done a day.

Do you have a fear of making phone calls?

Good question, I think its just I know its going to be a waste of time. Fighting the irs, the bank and the courts are like fighting city hall, they always seem to win in the end .argh

I have a fear of making phone calls. I heard a psychologist say that you need to make 30 calls each day for a month, to get over it.

Course I never did that. I’d rather just live in fear. :)

You never know. Just plead your case and perhaps they will let you off easier.

A friend of mine did her taxes wrong for 3 years, got audited and she would have owed thousands of dollars but they let her off the hook. Just told her to do it properly the next time!

You’ll never believe how I did today! I can hardly believe it myself. I got 81% of the items on my list finished!

I also got together with some other moms today and we made cupcakes. It was fun to get out.

I’m really starting to feel better about things. Thanks so much for your help.

81% wowee! add on the getting together with other moms and you have your 100 %.

So, have you gone shopping yet?

So, time to be accountable. Did you go shopping and to your appointment?

Yes, and it was awful. It was sleeting (i had to walk) and the psych said she cant treat me anymore so I have no meds and have to find another doctor.argh What about you ?

Why can’t she help you anymore?

Me, ok. I got 65% of my tasks done but I had some unexpected setbacks that took up at least 2 hrs of my time… Oh well, tomorrow’s a new day.

Course now I can’t sleep. Why did I drink so much coke this evening?! I have been limiting my caffeine so now even coke keeps me up at night. AHHH!

Its a long story. I may make a rant post about it tomorrow………I couldnt sleep either tonight. gonna try again now,………Love that attitude! (tomorrows a new day) :D
