I'm sorry. And this is why I will never be a good teacher. I'm supposed to be teaching my children educational stuff but instead I've spent the last 20 minutes trying to think of how I could work the word 'isosceles' into a triangle pun. It's really difficult. I don't think it can be done xxx

And you know why it can't be done?
Because the isosceles is hard to please.

I don’t want to be like this anymore and it has been a huge stumbling block in my recovery. Anyway, I wanted to get this off my chest. Pray for me; I need it.

I was reading a really good article a few days back about coping with all of our emotions during the pandemic.
And anger was one of the ones that many people are struggling with.....something that stuck in my mind was the idea of accepting the anger.

As alcoholics in recovery, acceptance is once again the answer to all of our problems.

It was suggested that we kind of say hello to the anger, have a chat with it even (that is my input)....basically just stop feeling bad about it. And then it can be a bit easier to look at where the anger is coming from. And once we know, we can use the message in the serenity prayer to deal with our feelings.

The serenity to accept what we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can and wisdom to know the difference.

The Serenity Prayer helps me often when dealing with all of my wild emotions. I have it framed on my wall.

Count me in for another 24 hours! Another day of serious heat and humidity. So grateful for air conditioning. Have a terrific Tuesday!!

Much love to all.

Tired Carpenter & wiscsober the pup is a Biewer Terrier - 4-8 pounds. I often find myself saying about baby animals (musk ox, foxes, elephants, etc) if they would just stay that size and look that way forever I'd love to have one as a pet. Now I have a pup that will do just that. Always look like a baby.

DaneK - I try to tell myself "Stay calm and let karma finish it".

I want another 24 hours of sobriety and will hold fast to get them.
