The Daily Writing Assignments Begin

Date 4/28/22.

The addicts’ log.

My sponsor’s assignment is the following:

1. Pray to your HP every morning
2. Make a gratitude list of 10 things you are grateful
3. Reach out call another recovering addict
4. Go to a meeting
5. Pray at night to your HP

As of today:

1. I didn’t pray to my HP this morning. Fail. But will attempt tomorrow.
2. What I’m grateful for:
   1. That I got my surgery done.
   2. I’m grateful that I didn’t wake up in the middle of the surgery, one of my fears.
   3. That I have a friend that will hold my pain medication, in his safe no less, so I don’t lose my sobriety.
   4. I’m grateful that I am literate.
   5. I’m grateful that I can write like a bad-ass.
   6. I appreciate wholeheartedly the cottage I live in. A place to be alone and recharge.
   7. I’m extremely happy that I had 6 hours of sleep! Longest in a while.
   8. I’m grateful that the person I’m buying the car forgave this month’s payment.
   9. I’m grateful I’m trying not to do the same patterns I learned from not-so-great people.
   10. I’m always grateful for my sponsor, putting up with me every step of the way.
3. I haven’t reached out to another addict today, yet. I plan too.
4. I’d like to attend two virtual meetings later today (I’ll update on the items I haven’t done the next day).
5. I plan to pray to my higher power. I’ll put an alarm if I forget. Same for the morning. Meh, what the heck, I’ll do it right now.
