24 Hour Club Sign up Sheet Part 28, All Are Welcome!
Hi Everyone! The weekend is upon us. WE made it through the week 24 Hours at a time and that is how it is done!
Remember it is no longer a day to reward ourselves with alcohol and drugs. In fact it that would be no reward at all,
nothing but the following day filled with guilt shame and remorse and probably some very unpleasant consequences.
Let's make the right choice today and sign up to stay clean and sober for this 24 Hours.
Just post your local Time! Everyone is welcome! Please join us if you are new!

Why Worry?
I have learned that one of the most useless emotions I have ever felt has been worry.
It doesn't help. It wastes time. It blocks positive energy.
When I worry it's like this internal conversation is going on about things that may or
may not happen.
Most of the time it is all in my imagination.
What if this person doesn't like me, what if I don't get sales at work, what if my
son get's in an accident?
These events are all in my mind, there is nothing I can do about the things I worry
about because they are not real at the time of my worrying.
And most of the time they never happen anyways.
It is when we are projecting into the future or dwelling on our past that worry
can consume us. Then we miss this moment with our kids , our friends, our families.
All my worries having something to do with those high expectations.Expecting life and
people to respond the way I want. I have to let it go.
Today is the only day we need be concerned with.
If we live our very best today by staying clean and sober, we will become
stronger and able to handle anything the future throws our way.
All we ever have is this very moment.
I have a prayer box I deposit my prayers in and I was reading desperate prayers I wrote
over a year ago. All the things I worried and prayed about never happened or all worked
themselves out.
Actually I had forgotten all about those things I was worried about that had consumed
me 1 year ago.
So why worry today about something I am not even going to remember 1 year from now.
So today, Let's just let it go and not worry, we have no control over anything or anyone
but our own little selves and this 24 Hours.
And most days I am sure that is quite enough! I know it is for me!
*Song For The Day -Don't Worry Be Happy- Bob McFerrin

I really like your post today Deeker. I am going to see my daughter after my morning meeting tomorrow (I am seperated from her mom and we haven't worked out a permanent custody arrangement) so I went from seeing her every day to once or twice a week. But it's given me time to focus on my recovery. So I am very blessed and grateful. And definitely committing to the next 24 hours sober. 11:15pm in Indiana.

Great message tonight deeker. I know I worry more than I should and I need to remind myself of your words the next time I start to let it get the best of me.
With that said, I'm not worried about staying sober for the next 24 hours because I'm here signing in!
