18TH JAN 2013 - Time to let go.

Well done on 133 days being gamble free, sorry to hear you are feeling s**t at the moment. Have a nice relaxing weekend, do nothing, and maybe watch a film. Take care x

WEEK 20. DAY 134. 4 MONTHS!! "It's another day, it's another "NO" (to GAMBLING).

First of all, I would just like to apologise for not posting and supporting others in their diaries during the last week. I have been chocca block in work and just getting back into the swing of returning after 4 months off, to full-time work again. Been a bit "up and down" this week also with one thing and another - wont go into detail.

Finished work a little earlier yesterday and headed into town. It felt so nice (and normal)!! to browse round the shops - I even bought myself some lovely shoes and a nice top!! - top might be going back yet - see what it's like when I try it on??? Still, it was good to at least be able to buy and decide whether or not I do want to keep them.

Hope everyone has a gamble free weekend and remains strong and determined in regaining your "normal" lives back - just like me!!

Take care.

MINI GOALS FOR JUNE PAYDAY:

Mini goals for June are a little later than normal this time around for reasons mentioned earlier. Anyway here goes...

1. To continue to pay all bills.

2. To continue to budget wisely.

3. To sort my new glasses out. (possible treat).

4. To take "time out" to just chill and relax.

5. To support other diaries as much as I can.

There we are. See how I get on with them for next pay day.

WEEK 20. DAY 135. "It's another day, it's another "NO" (to GAMGLING)".

Bright and sunny today but feeling somewhat frustrated. How can I remedy this??.... Oh I know, I will take myself into town, take my top and shoes back and buy some more...... Sounds like a plan and a good one at that!! Wasn't able to do this four months ago!! Happy Days!!

For all those who are not feeling so good today, do something nice that you know will put a smile on your face and not leave you stressed, anxious and physically sick - LIKE GAMBLING DOES!!

Take care everyone.

Feb - Frustrated but determined on "The Bright Side of the Road!!!

WEEK 20. DAY 136.

Busy, busy, busy in work but hey! the sun was shining today. Chilaxing now for the evening. It feels so good. Something i was never able to totally do whilst I was gambling!! Those days are over.

Lady Feb.

WEEK 20. DAY 137.

Just a quickie - chocca in work but ticking things off in my diary so that's got to be a good sign plus the sun is shining so it's win win at the min. May it continue!!

Stay strong everyone.

Lady Feb.
