Recovery Daily Dose: I'll Show You!

http://recoverydailydose.blogspot.com/2015/04/ill-show-you.html

A tad of poetry every day, recovery on the go. Friday, April 24, 2015. You string together jargon. And pithy sayings,. And chanting parts of them. To prove you're not asleep. You speak of grandiosity,. Of things I know darned well. Could never happen,. Would not, could not. I know, because I've tried for years. And I've more intellect than the twelve. Besides, that one lady,. Waddling in, falling into the chair,. Sprawled through the meeting,. Panting for the effort of getting. My arguments, my logic,.

Recovery Daily Dose: Compulsive

http://recoverydailydose.blogspot.com/2015/08/compulsive.html

A tad of poetry every day, recovery on the go. Friday, August 7, 2015. I identify as a compulsive overeater,. Recovering, and a sugar addict. I didn't create the language, but it's mine. Compulsive is an adjective describing. An irresistible urge, especially against. A person's conscious wishes. Addicted. Is an adjective as well. So both apply to me. What does that mean? That which I would do,. I do not, but what I would not do, I do.". I'm powerless. Not just over food, over eating,. Today, and each day.

Recovery Daily Dose: Uncomfortable

http://recoverydailydose.blogspot.com/2015/07/uncomfortable.html

A tad of poetry every day, recovery on the go. Monday, July 27, 2015. Fear Trepidation. Anxiety. Oh, wouldn't it be easier. To play stupid computer games. Or even to clean the house. And make hubby happy! But I'm sitting here waiting. For the computer to reboot. So I can walk a tightrope. My comfort zone. And it says. Cannot load iCloud preference pane.". How the heck am I to know. More than the machine? Nerves. Irritation. Pique. I'm sixty-eight. Retired. So why are there thirteen programs.

A tad of poetry every day, recovery on the go. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Well, I did it. It's been three months. And I called you each day. Reported my food,. Read what you told me to,.

Recovery Daily Dose: Walk to God

http://recoverydailydose.blogspot.com/2015/08/walk-to-god.html

A tad of poetry every day, recovery on the go. Sunday, August 2, 2015. When we walk to God, he runs to us. Brenda Q. Like a child, pulling up to stand,. Edging around a stool, holding on,. Trying the feet but not with trust. Forgetting for a moment the need. To hold on, to grasp safety,. A faltering step then two, three,. Until we're walking, without confidence. But wanting to see, wanting to learn,. Wanting to move. We walk toward the prize. Toward the power, the authority,. Toward hope and life.
