Capricorn
December 21 - January 19
Whether you are a volunteer or you do it for a living, if your daily activity involves some kind of altruism or giving of yourself, today you may learn a very important lesson, dear Capricorn. You are going to learn that in order to help other people, you need to learn to take care of yourself. After all, how can you help other people as much as you would like to if you don't take good care of yourself mentally and physically?

Or spiritually?

Oh shit what kind of lesson am I in for now? I realized yesterday that I did not get to any ALAnon meetings this week. No wonder I've been irritable and discontent and believing once again that I am NOT REALLY POWERLESS over this disease. I've also blown it with the eating and exercising. This traveling takes a toll on me in every aspect--

I might be in a wee bit of self will these days. I sure want to do it all my way in my time... BUT I did it anyway I took a conference off my calendar and took the MEPP class off too. I can not can not continue this way---my house (first place it shows up) my insides my schedule. Life can't continue this way. I can't continue to be too busy for my program or not get to my meetings or the gym because I'm out of town so often. I did try the hotel gym this time, how utterly embarrassing.

I promised something light and fun for Pam for her weekend blog viewing. Wish I was better at light and bright than I am. I am such a glum ALAnon. Where is the joy? The fun?

DM left this morning for a long weekend bike ride. Its almost 11am and I have prayed, eaten breakfast, pored over my rest of Sept and looked at Oct, cleaned up the kitchen, did some catchup work for work. I have a whole list of what I have not yet accomplished but thats not positive attitude into positive action. Gotta move on. I feel a downward spiral coming on. Thank God I'm headed to a meeting by 1pm.
