It feels amazing, i really do feel like i have been let out of prison. Its great being able to make plans, but all of them will remain dreams if i screw up!! I get paid at midnight tomorrow and this is where i normally lose the plot, my biggest test is keeping this thought process at the very front of all my thinking over the next few days. Lets beat this !!

Day 32. Payday today and not even been to the cashline. Took everything I needed in to work so left my bank card at work, I'll do the same tomorrow. I finish at 9.30 tonight and I'll go to the gym then watch a movie and that'll be me for the night...
Well been paid 3 days ago and still no gambling, couple of thoughts today about paying but just got up and on with things and I didn't give in. Truth be told I can't be bothered with it, let's hope it stays that way.
Could I have finally cracked it? I know it's only 35 days but i really have no interest in playing online slots or having a coupon on. I know i still can't let my guard down but in all honesty at this moment in time I just can't be arsed with it and the c**P that at comes with it. Here's hoping anyway and long may the days rack up..
I Was up town today and it was always a habit of mine when up town to go in to the bookies and play slots, I hardly went up town for this reason as I could easily spend £300 in an hour playing slots. I'm glad to say, I never went In any although I'm not going to lie, I did think about it but then I just got In my head that I'd have to start from day one again and thats not something I want to do.. Now home.and I'll get on with what needs done around the flat!!
Came in to a wee bit of money today and I'll confess, one of my first thoughts was i can afford to gamble, just shows that even after all this time not gambling that it's still on the back of my mind. I got the thoughts out my mind quickly by keeping my mind occupied by tidying up and watching a box set.
Was up town today again and you know what?? the thought of going in to a bookies never even crossed my mind and its just now i just realised this. Not so long ago I'd avoid going as I knew the temptation to go in them would be too great and id end up playing the machines, well today i went up and it never even entered my head. I am starting to believe that I could really do it this time.. 28 years of gambling and it having control of me. i pray and hope that is has come to an end. 5 mins and another day complete!!
