Hi Pink Lady, quick check in. Glad to see your doing well (ISH) but staying away from gambling. Will soon be a year again. As 🐟 said, one slip in over 800 days is amazing. Be proud and in the words of a wise lady, don't forget to treat yourself!

How many years are you on now Dazza mate ?
@dazza85 Hi Dazza.
Thank you. Lovely to read also that you are 500+ days g.f!👏👏👏👌💪.
Yes, always one for a treat (although I did treat myself to a few things with online shopping while at home with shingles)!🤗.
Take care and keep doing this - day at a time as always 💪🙏.

Day 300!
Another milestone I guess!👍

Day 302.
Our Edinburgh visit last week to go and see my son was great. I could have done with not going until this weekend however as I was still feeling the effects of this Shingles virus 😣😴. To add insult to injury, while I was there, I had a fall. I slipped walking down a wet cobbled sloping road by the castle. I went straight on my back and brought my sister down on top of me as I was linking her!🥴. I was battered and bruised but it could have been a whole lot worse. Anyway, this week, my energy levels now seem to back to normal thank goodness and just a bit of nerve pain in my neck and arm, nothing I cannot deal with. I also did two full days at work and was fine afterwards 👍. Finally, after almost 5 weeks, I am hoping that my body is finally ridding itself of this horrible virus🙏.
Today, I am off to my great nieces christening/first Birthday. It will be lovely to go to church and celebrate this occasion and catch up with all my family and friends 👌. My sister is taking me in her car and the party is in the grounds of my brother’s beautiful home 🏡 so there will be no expense for me to fork out, other than the present I purchased some weeks ago. Money is not the bee all and end all. For me, family and good health are 🙏.
Take care all and stay cool and hydrated in this heat 🥵.
”No thoughts of gambling (apart from a fleeting one when watching the tennis and who might win). Thoughts are ok though as long as we don’t act on them. “As if” I just told myself 👊💪. No money spent on gambling. No money lost on gambling = Tick, tick, tick”!👌.

What a lovely post and most importantly, that 302 must feel good
What a great post and such a different way of thinking. Most of all that 302 must feel good. Keep staying 68 days ahead of me
Hi Pink Lady,
Sorry to hear you've had a run of feeling poorly and about your fall, but equally glad to read you're on the mend :). Thinking of you and sending healthy vibes for your continued steady recovery.
Hope you had a lovely time at your great niece's christening & first birthday, with your family and friends! Your focus on the energy and positives from spending time with family and friends is admirable, and really recognises where the best part of life is.
Thoughts are fleeting, they come and they go, and I completely agree it's recognising that they are only a thought and no need to be tugged along with them. I love the "As if" answer you give, it's a lot more polite than my curse words.
Keep being fabulous!! 😀 🌺 ❤️
@12o8g9i0xr Awh thanks Fran 🩷.
Lovely to read that you are still going strong too and remaining g.f!👏👏👏👌💪.
Take care. (Still awake as have been watching the England match)!
