*** 2019 *** Climbing the Gamcare Mountain

Yo, so pleased you enjoyed the ballet . Though think I misled you unintentionally of course, I don’t dance I just love to watch it as I said especially street dance . But the next time I see a ballet advertised on tv , I will watch it following your advice .

Have a nice weekend .........Shiny 🙂

Aaw reading this made me smile! Glad you had a wonderful evening at the ballet- I would love to watch the nutcracker one day! So many beautiful opportunities and things to do in life and is lovely to see you getting out n about on your adventures enjoying new experiences.

Thankyou for visiting my diary.

Shiny.... We are all dancers. You may sway to the music on a night out or boogy with the vacuum cleaner but it is still good fun and you are simply doing what is built into the very fabric of your soul. I think Jesus once said to his disciples "Go forth into the world, spread peace and dance your little socks off."

Who am I ... So lovely to get your post. I hope you are happy and well.

Hello Diary ... A beautiful sunny day. The birds are singing and it feels good to be alive. I was reading an article and came a cross the word "Abnegation." It means to renounce or deny ourselves something that we have a fondness for. Here it is in a sentence: "Gamcare warriors stand tall and proud. In battling this insidious addiction, there is no room for ambiguity because the addiction looks for chinks in our armour. For this reason, I fully support the abnegation of all games of chance which involve financial gain or loss....Stephen

Yo, lol , loved your interpretation of bible lol. Yes a beautiful day, fill full of the joys of spring . Right of to vacuum and dance my socks off. Have a good rest of day ...... Shiny:-)

Just love your humour and candid approach to life. When we truly put gambling behind us there is a chance for growth, giving, happiness and joy.

Keep up the good work Stephen.

Thankyou Shiny & Martin. I appreciate your kind words.

As you rightly wrote in your post Martin: "When we truly put gambling behind us there is a chance for growth, giving, happiness and joy."

I can honestly say that the gamble-free me and me the gambler are like two completely different people. It is very strange but I won't dwell on it.

I had a good time Monday evening with a creative writing group (spare room in a pub) and than we all celebrated the birthday of one of the members. Great fun chatting, singing and enjoying a couple of dances.

No doubt I will have a few urges to gamble on Thursday when monthly pension goes in the bank but I think I should be ok.

Stephen

Hi Stephen, lovely to hear you had a fantastic time at the theatre with your lady friend. When you get the urges on thursday make sure you visit this forum and keep yourself occupied reading your own diary and the progress you've made so far. You can do this my friend you're strong. Have a good day mate.

Heyyy Stephen, what have you got planned for this week :)?

Thank you Pras & Lisa for visiting my diary.

I am having a quiet few days which is ok but maybe I have been overthinking. Monthly pension goes in the bank tomorrow and i can't help but remember all the times in the past when I have just given everything to the betting shop.

I will never forget those awful feelings of despair and disbelief and imagine they will haunt me for the rest of my days.

Unfortunately, when payday comes along, the addiction tries to gloss over those traumatic occasions and encourages me go gamble.

Once I have got through the next few days I will be fine so just need to keep my wits about me...Stephen
