Day 151
To Dear Me,
I just returned from my doctor’s appointment and getting my
medicines from my pharmacy. Now I have an hour to get together to do some other stuff before work. I’m working eleven days straight
before I have a day off. Whew. I received a letter from HR stating that
they filled the full-time library assistant position and the only ones I
can apply for when the opportunity presents itself is part-time library
assistant positions. That’s a real disappointment but at least the door is
still partly open for me to do the LA position part-time if I still want it.

I’m applying for other full-time positions and trusting the Lord will open a door if He allows it

Day 150
To Dear Me
I felt that the Holy Spirit wanted me to post today for some
reason. It could be because I have a crucial meeting with church
leadership today at 10. I am looking forward to things coming to some point
today; perhaps an accurate record needs to be made. I am thankful for the
opportunity to move forward in whatever direction they allow me to go.
Extra prayers are needed today.
Take Care,
Alfred

Day 149
To Dear Me,
It’s raining again and I’m feeling groggy. I drank 2 cups of
coffee to get through everything. I will get measured and fitted for a
new pair of glasses today at ten. I’m just trying to get through work today and
be done with it. I’m glad to have a job but want so much more for myself. I’ve
been applying for other full-time positions online. I’m almost through my tax
refund, so many things that I needed and some that I wanted. God knows
my heart and gives me the grace to do whatever I need to do daily.

Day 148
To Dear Me
I went to a new men’s breakfast fellowship Jgroup this morning.
It felt great to share a meal and good times with guys. It was mostly the same
faces I already know but I met a couple of new guys too. It was a great way to
start my day. Now I need to pray, take my shower, and get ready for this sleep
doctor's appointment. I’m feeling better and more confident about everything I’m
doing. I know that I’m catching up with everything God is doing in my life.

Day 147
To Dear Me
The day after the big game is always exciting and tiring.
The team I rooted for won and beat a hated rival. But the lack of sleep from
watching the entire game and getting home late makes me feel tired. I just saw
my therapist and we had another great session. I’m really opening on things
that I’m going through. My relationships are all good for the most part. The
ministries I’m involved in will be settled this Sunday when I meet two
different people in leadership. I’m hopeful but I’m ready for whatever the Lord
allows to happen. I’m posting for new positions all of the time and working
hard at the library. And the most special thing is my son’s 20th
birthday is today. I sang to him and wished him a very happy and blessed birthday.

Day 146
To Dear Me,
It’s payday Friday, so I paid my bills and have a little
saved to take my son out for his upcoming birthday next week. I also bought him
an Eagles shirt. It’s a milestone birthday, he turns 20. I just hope his
birthday and this year brings him plenty of Godly blessings. Spending time with
roommates, my gf Sharon, and my sponsor this weekend.
Take Care,
Alfred

Day 145
To Dear Me
I went to bed early and slept for a long time. I was
supposed to get up earlier, but I snoozed instead. I’m praying currently. I’m
trying to draw closer to God. I need to work on my 12-step workbook. I must also
start applying for new jobs. I need to decide when to cook meals for the guys
and when to let them fend for themselves. I must find a balance in doing
everything.

Day 144
To Dear Me,
I'm stressing out over the many things I have to accomplish this week. Trying to fill out applications for getting a new
job. Trying to catch up on my 12-step workbook before Saturday night. I have
meetings almost every weeknight. I must manage my money better. I need better
time management.

Something to think about
I must refocus on God and all the things He’s led me
through, and not on my problems

Day 142
To Dear Me,
I have thought through my challenges with both roommates’ behaviors and decided to work with my own struggles first, then I’ll have a group
meeting. I’m hoping to see some changes in their behavior but I know I need an
increase of grace and mercy to deal with it all. My friends and counselors
can help me deal with it. I will tell my therapist and hopefully, it
will all work out.
