Today was an ordinary day.

When I first woke up my mind immediately drifted into a feeling of dread as I thought of the due date I had missed last night for a culture project for my communication class.  Fortunately I caught myself immediately and acted to change my attitude.  It was not easy for a moment but the result was immediate.  I received relief as soon as I resisted and prayed.  Thanks be to God.

I spent most of the morning finishing the assignment which was a project about the nature of my beliefs.

Recently I have missed doing written reviews fairly frequently.  This concerns me.  The reason has been because our family life has been extraordinarily busy and my wife has been working some.  This evening I noticed that I didn't feel a strong sense of priority to go to a 12 step meeting.  Perhaps this was due to the nature of the project that I had to write, that it filled my desire to think about spiritual matters. Strangely this evening I had a chance to go to a meeting but I got confused about the day. I thought there was no meeting tonight.  I went to the thrift store instead. I bought a cheap jam box for the club.  When I went to drop it off there was a meeting in progress.  Even then I didn't stay out of deference to my wife since I had not told her that I was going to a meeting. 

I was happy to practice with my sons tonight.

I am looking forward to the speech project with my wife in which we will be speaking about our service in the 12 recovery community.
