Take care.

WEEK 12. DAY 84. It's another day, it's another "NO" (to GAMGLING).
It's been a funny odd couple of days - emotions swishing around in my head concerning different things. I must add though, that none of them are to do with wanting to gamgle - NO WAY! However, I do get thoughts every now and again of how in the past, I could just go and buy myself what I wanted and go where I wanted without any hesitation. This saddens me occasionally (when I allow it to). I have decided that when I feel like this or get these thoughts, I am going to remind myself that 'LIFE STILL GOES ON' regardless and therefore, I am going to try to remain positive and just accept it and take it easy on myself when I am feeling this way.
When I look back to 18th JAN 2013, I have already made huge strides into getting my life back on track and having some kind of normality again and that in itself feels good. I have to just go with that for now and hopefully further down the line, things will get better and better.
Back in work next week after nearly 4 months off so making the most of my pyjama day today!! Not good I know, but hey, if that's part of me taking it easy just for today, so be it!!
Take it easy everyone and here's to the start of a great weekend.

WEEK 13. DAY 86. It's another day, it's another "NO" (to GAMBLING).
Thanks Thomso and CJ for your kind words. Felt a bit rough last night - itchy nose, scratchy throat, hot and cold all night! Another simple day therefore - pjs, tv and hot soak in the bath later.
Just thinkin??, pay day next week. This will be my third payslip free from gambling - month three, yeah. Progressing well with the prospect of 'normality' back in my life again.

Enjoy your day of rest and relaxation!!

Hi there Feb
Glad to see you're still doing so well. That normality you speak of in your last post, I know of it now, but back when I was gambling; never. The normality of life, being free of gambling..it really bothers me that I got so caught up in it all. Though at the same time, boy we should be thankful to be rid of it.
Get well soon btw.
All the best
Alex
Thanks all for your kind words, much appreciated.
