Another day to sit back and reflect on........ What was different today that didn't get accomplished ??? What changes can I make to better tomarrow? What went wrong with my program that I need to change and better myself....? Have I gotten farther in everything today that Didn't get done the day before???? How many times did I climb the mountain and not fall....? Have I gotten through the steps peacefully today making progress from other days? Did I beat myself up for not doing so well today??? Or did I give myself credit for a day well done to the best of my ability? ........Look to today as accomplished the best you could......tomarrow will take care of itself..............No time to beat oneself up for missed things........You are a good person and have lots to accomplish in your program.................................Keep up the good work and know that God is watching over you......... Recovery is important in your life and needs your most important attention each day........remember to clean house and pick your self up when you fall...................It takes time to get where you need to be in your program............you will make it .....just be patient with yourself....... Rest tonight and start over tomarrow..........get to meetings and know you are doing the best you can just for today............................Love you all........Little Penguin

Having trouble staying in the now with your program????? Most of us are when the New Year comes....and all our friends that were our friends start to party for New Years Eve........................Stay attentive....and know that your recovery is more important that going out and having fun with those that really don't know how to party right....................... The right way to party is to be safe and sane......NO DRUGS / NO ALCOHOL........that is the right way to party............this is the best way to go and not get involved ...........YOU CAN DO IT AND SO CAN YOUR FRIENDS.........................GET TO MEETINGS AND KNOW THAT THESE PEOPLE AT THE MEETINGS ARE YOUR REAL FRIENDS..........................Keep coming back and know you are always in the right place.....................Little Penguin

HAPPY NEW YEAR.............We made it through another year and what a joy it is to see the new year come through....... TODAY I HAVE 21 YEARS OF RECOVERY IN AA and I am proud to be here............................I still feel like it was just yesturday that I can to this place.......But No matter how many years you have behind you it still feels new.........except that someone like me has been hanging out a longer time..........Yes....I still have moments when I would like to go out and drink like the rest of you......but my willingness to hang in there kicks in and I find other things to distract my mind..................go to meetings , talk to friends in recovery, call someone that is willling to talk and stay in the now of my recovery...............Read the Big Book from cover to cover and so much more....................Work the steps and start at the beginning.................All this works.......... Hugs and love to you all and I will check in later........... Little Penguin

For all those of you that are still having trouble with your program............The best thing to do each day is find a quiet place to read and work the steps...........then get to a meeting and stress what is on your mind with the meeting discussion..... You have lots of friends there that want to touch base with you and new ones that want to know who you are............ You can get all the Hugs you want and talk about how your life if really going and what changes you can make to better your program................... Go on a walk today to clean your inside house within you........This is the best way to do it and the fresh air will do you some good at the same time you get some exercise........................You can do it.........KEEP Coming back.........................Little Penguin

Having trouble with all the free time you have on your hands....? get to a meeting and listen to others talk and then say what is on your mind.................it helps....... When time allows do some writing and work the steps........Read your Big Book.......best cover to cover..........Do some foot work on what you need to get through yourself........ One thing I find helpful is the Mountain Climb through the days of recovery......this is writing down the first day of your recovery and walking yourself up to today......Where are you today compaired to the first day.....? Notice how much you have gotten through since then...... Clean House with yourself and your program.......see what you need to work on from there......... This is enough to work on for one day or two......You can do it and take your time..............Not need to rush any of this..... Hugs to you .......Little Penguin
