Today was pretty good but i found myself with downtime that i haven't had in a while and that old feeling creeped up on me again. I've kept myself so busy with meetings and errands and general running around for the past 11 days that this sudden lack of anything to do caught me off guard and my boredom led to some cravings. Nothing i would act on but negative thoughts started to creep in and i found myself cocooning myself in my room. I made the decision to go outside and walk arounf the neighborhood with some hand weights and i can't believe how much good it did me. Hearing the birds, smelling people's grills fire up and hearing and seeing people really helped me connect with my Higher Power and brought me peace. I hope exercise can do for my fellow fighters and sufferers what it has done for me. Keep on working it, people! One second, one minute, one houre, one day at a time!
