What a difference a day makes. (Might make a good song) I feel so much better today after unloading yesterday. Comment moderator is the way to go. I had some crap from the devil downunder and a new Blogger has appeared commenting under the name of 13th stepper. Left me a message "What does God think of a Catholic c*ck gobler being his represnetative here on earth." BUSTED! So you might be on the lookout for some such crap. I think this is the DFDU trying to get published.

I'm really sticking close to home these days what with gas at $3.15 for regular here in Houston. It was 2.35 this time last year. I am on a fixed income and have to be very careful with the budget or I could crash and burn. At least I have the sense to adapt and not react. I am going to have to change my meetings and I am doing that reluctantly. There are a lot of meetings out here within 5 miles of my house so I will have to check some of them out. I haven't been to straight meetings in years. I got sober in straight meetings and I was loved and accepted by most. But there were those who made me uncomfortable. The statements were usually something about "I believe in Adam and Eve" not "Adam and Steve". I go to AA meetings for my sobriety. I do not got to cruise or make out. At gay meetings I don't have to be careful about my genderspeak. I don't care about people knowing I am gay, I just don't want to be uncomfortable. There I go projecting and I need to investigate prior to contempt.

So that is about all I have for tonite. I'm going to my dinner, watch Real Time With Bill Maher at 10 PM, and the McLaughlin Group at 11 PM. Now that is the quickest 30 min on TV. But I really do enjoy it.

Today I am Grateful for:

.

My Higher Power - GOD!

My Sobriety.

Dolly, My Schnauzer.

My Sponsor.

This wonderful cold snap, it will be over soon.

To have a Mickyless Day.

Resentment prayer: "If you have a resentment you want to be free of, if you will pray for the person or the thing that you resent, you will be free. If you will ask in prayer for everything you want for yourself to be given to them, you will be free. Ask for their health, their prosperity, their happiness, and you will be free. Even when you don't really want it for them and your prayers are only words and you don't mean it, go ahead and do it anyway. Do it every day for two weeks, and you will find you have come to mean it and to want it for them, and you will realize that where you used to feel bitterness and resentment and hatred, you now feel compassionate understand and love."
