Counting Days

We all counted days as newcomers, but when you think about, aren't we all still counting the days to some goal, event, anniversary or birthday? When I start projecting, I say to myself, today is all I have. Somedays I shock myself with the amount of things I can accomplish. Lists are useful and really contribute to keeping me sane. (As I once heard in a meeting, somedays we could put yellow caution tape from ear to ear across our foreheads, since our alcoholic minds are a such chaotic place to be.)
