I keep forgetting to consider that my changing biology could be a factor in my irritability. Most of my adult life, I could have as much coffee as I liked. A few weeks ago I started getting the jitters if I had more than two. Last week I got the jitters after only two. So now it’s one. Will it soon be zero? Could the jitters be related to irritability? Could my symptom be a physical one rather than a spiritual one?

- My will is an investment, and in the past I didn’t invest it very well. But if I invest it into my HP’s will, my HP will invest in me.
- Superman doesn’t just hang out with kryptonite.
- Gratitude is a salve. Apply liberally.
- In the three Cs, if there’s a fourth C that is “contribute” – how am I contributing? If it’s negative, it’s C minor. If it’s positive, it’s C major and that changes everything.
- The concept of abundance also applies to time.
- Note to self: add “please” to Serenity Prayer.
I decide
To turn my will and my life
Over to Your care
I pray only
For knowledge of Your will for me
And power
To carry it out
Thy will
Not mine
Be done
God, please
Grant me serenity
To accept the things
I cannot change
God, please
Grant me courage
To change the things
I can
God, please
Grant me wisdom
To know what
The difference is
God, May
Thy will
Not mine
Be done
I pray only
For knowledge of Your will for me
And power
To carry it out
I decide
To turn my will and my life
Over to Your care
Thy will
Not mine
Be done
I’ve lately been irritable and unreasonable and out of touch with my program, so I’m doing 90 meetings in 90 days, which is ridiculously easy in the Zoom-and-Covid era. If you wanna do that too, here’s one place to find meetings. Another thing is to Google Al-Anon Zoom meetings and you’ll get lots of district and area results from all around. A lot of these meetings are not listed at WSO as electronic meetings, so you can expand the number of meetings you know about hugely by doing this.
I’ve just had a massive obsession attack because I couldn’t bear the thought of leaving this site all effed up. And it was all effed up. I hate BoldGrid very much and now I hate WordPress in general too. I really have to find some other thing next time I want to launch a blog. I only chose WP because I knew it was easy to import from Blogger into it, and that held true. The import bit was ridiculously easy. The rest really wasn’t.
I need to be able to give myself permission to let an effed up thing lie around like that when I have higher priorities waiting.
As mentioned before, the Googlization of Blogger has really put a damper on this blog. But now I’ve moved to a WordPress installation, and I’m hoping that means I can preserve my anonymity here. Fingers crossed.
