Time For Tuesday’s

​I went fishing with my Dad this Sunday. He picked me up at 5:30AM and we spent all day together. Spending time with my family is important to me. I was able to spend some time with my son and I had a good day. I caught about seven big fish. My little one is excited about Easter and he wanted me to put carrots 🥕 in the yard to make an Easter Bunny 🐰 trap. 

I am back on my regular insurance on Friday. I’ve missed going out for the past month with my caseworkers. Some of my most important values include; Family, Group, Hobbies, Growth, Determination, and especially Spending time with God. 

Today I am at The Day Hab; at The Lions Center. It’s Tuesday and I am sitting here at the table with other people that attend. It’s almost the end of the month and Friday is April Fools Day. 

Together Thursday

​I’m feeling content and calm this morning. As I am starting to see that staying with the group and my medication is working to my best interest. Enjoying my third cigarette and had my coffee. Going inside to adult day care after I smoke one more.

I brought my backpack; with my planner and pens that are in a pouch. Also in there is my large and small sketchbooks and colored pencils. Along with two coloring books and my journal. I am proud of myself for taking better care of my stuff. 

What does it mean to have your life together? 

At the moment I am at The Day Care Center and there’s a lot of people who come here every day. I am reminded that my group is just as important as my family; and they are my family. There’s been several people that have been here in the group home in the last five years. We have seen people come and go. I have been in the group home for seven years and have stayed for over a year now. The present 💝 moment is a gift and I am drawing closer to God; hoping to live a brighter future. As I move into the future I hope to be a mature and smart adult that makes the right choices and becoming more productive. 

We Witnessed Wednesday’s

​Didn’t bring my backpack or purse today; I want to get a better grip on life and felt like that stuff was weighing me down. So often in life, we feel where not exactly the  best versions of ourselves. It’s helped my mood today and I am drinking coffee and eating grits and sausage for breakfast. It’s important to eat breakfast in the mornings; did you know we’re the most alert in the mornings. 

Also it’s right around the time people are celebrating lent, although I have never celebrated lent myself, so I’m giving it a try and trusting God with the fact I don’t need to carry around so much stuff. I only brought my cellphone and my cigarettes and my Zippo. 

I’m working on self reflection today and adjusting myself accordingly. I figured it’s better to start on a fresh page and still without all the baggage of the past. I use Evernote for my main writing task. My main projects are my five year plan and my self reflection documents. 

Tuesday’s Thoughts

​I woke up at 5:15AM; getting up early because I went to bed early. I’m at The Lions Center, and didn’t have breakfast this morning. It’s 11:30AM and we’ll have lunch soon. Sitting here with my journals and my cellphone battery is half way full. I had a good weekend fishing. Hopefully we can go again. 

Fishing 🎣 Permit

​I am hoping that I get to go fishing with my Dad tomorrow. I need my Drivers License from the owner of the group home. I need it in order to get a fishing permit. Sitting at The Center and waiting to go home. I went to a shopping outlet with four women from The Center this morning. 

March

​It’s the first day of March and I just bought a Dr. Pepper from the vending machine. Seems there’s about 20 people that attend The Day Center here. I have an appointment to see Wound Evolution tomorrow with my caseworker. I would like to be able to work or do something productive with my time. Counting down the minutes till we smoke; which I have already smoked my two cigarettes. Isn’t a very good use of time and seems there just isn’t too much on my mind lately.

Where does all the time go? January & February are gone and it’s the start of a new month bringing Spring here. I need to set some goals for the month. One of my goals is to read “Cinder”; the new book I got at Half Price Books last week.
