Better to Ramble than Gamble.

Well done I am reading your diary you have come a hell of a long way in what is a short period of time. Don't be afraid to give yourself a slap on the bag. Every and now we need a kick in the behind so take last night as that and kick on your doing brilliant an inspriation for all us newbies

Hi Oldham, How you doing? . Look my old friend , everything you have been through over the last few months and your still going strong , that tells me and shows you all the good quality's you have , certainly something to be very proud of.

Things in our life don't always go to plan as you well know but your changing that now , one day at a time your'e gonna make a huge difference to your future and also that of your son.

I'm a great believer in thing's happening for a reason and maybe thing's in your life weren't quite right at this time to go ahead with but you now control your own destiny and who knows where life will take us all now ?.

78 day's in is a huge achievement and you now know the warning sign's as you noticed the other night watching Tv, this time though your more ready and able to keep them in check !

Keep doing what your doing my friend , coz it's definately working !.

Alan

Post #63 Oldham... that's what it's all about! You are superb pal. Really well done. I wish you the very best. Legend. Keep the faith.

Day 79

Another gamble free day thanks for all your comments above it always nice to get a pat on the back.

The weeks got better and better after a tough start and tonight I have a nice bottle of wine to drink from a surprising source. Earlier today I got a text form the ex struggling to buy some concert tickets something I would of normally done as by her own admission she is not the best at I.T she was a bit wound up and in the end I ended up hanging up on her, I gave her a bit of time to cool off and called her again and talked her through it step by step and she got the tickets. This afternoon I got a text and apology for how demanding she was and asked if I could pop on on my way home always a bonus as i get to se my lad for a few minutes and left with a bottle of wine as a thank you.

Now I'm in no way reading anything into this were not getting back together but I'll certainly enjoy drinking the wine tonight in fact there's no time like the present.

Thanks for reading and stay strong in your battle.

Day 80

Thanks Suzanne who'd of thought it 80 whole day gamble free. Next target 90 days which will fall on my last GA meeting before Christmas then onto the century which falls on NYD.

Not sure what to do today might finish of Blackspot and find a new box set and I've got a black bin bag that's been in the corner of my room since I was kicked out 80 days ago think it might be time to tackle that.

Enjoy your weekend everyone

Imagine if you'd just lost £10 a day = £800 or £20 = £1600 , £30 = £2,400 ! Shiiiiit , that's some scary stuff My friend ?

Big well done on your 80 days of winning !

Respect and best wishes Alan

Now there's another coincidence , just posted on number 80 ! Spoooooky ! LOL
