This morning I got off to another late start but I put my best spin on it that we need to sleep in to stay up late tonight for New Years Eve. I planned to carry a vision of God's will into all my affairs when I prayed.

Meditation led me to think about our parenting plan. A approach to talk to my wife came to mind.

In the evening I took the kids to the annual New Years Eve party at my former sponsor's home. They had a great time but I had to leave early to bring a couple of them home. I wish that I had exercised a little more social grace and given some goodbyes and gratitude to friends and especially the host.

I reflected on the past year. I am grateful for another year sober and living the spiritual life and all the blessings I get to receive.

Thanks be to God.
