I dont think it is about never becoming complacent personally.
Its about living the best life we can live and enjoy the moments we can have. We may make mistakes and have problems along the way, or blips as we call them. Gambling is just one of them.
I'd say explore your world your way and capture the great moments. They push us through the rough days. 🙂
You will be fine at work tomorrow and you will analyse everyone. You will sit watching how they all behave and smile to yourself trying to figure out who is a gambler and who isn't 🙂
Keep smiling.

Beautifully said! 🙂
I’m at an art gallery in Porabello road tonight for a friends anniversary viewing .. and launch. Looking around at everyone I’m thinking if only you knew 🙂 it makes me think, doesn’t matter who and what you are - demons can be everywhere. A winner though, and will see my day 11 - and day 365! :-)) Kaz xxx
I wonder how many of the people around you have demons 🙂
Well done Kaz. You are doing great.

Hi Kaz
Well done in getting back on the no gambling road, slowly one day at a time you will get there and it will get easier.

Absobloodylutely! Feeling good and already day 11 :)) I have some money in my purse!! Lol I’d have deposited, spent and lost by now .... roll on day 12 ... I got this! 😉 xx
Day 11 - great day, back to work and out for drinks after ..... Victoria was buzzing tonight! Man U and Paris SG game probably a reason 🙂 great atmosphere in the sports bar (for a last minute tipple) before boarding my train! Happy gf evening my lovelies xxx Kaz
Day 12 - feel good, I actually have money in my account :)) a never never for this time in the month! Happy days :)) .... would you believe I actually got a phone call and voicemail from one of the slot sites bekoning me to play!!! w*f??! Can they actually do that when you have Gamstop in place ... I was shocked! Emailed them and said stop now or I’ll report them to the gaming commission and the ICO - have they not heard of GDPR? Anyway, didn’t make me wobble whatsoever. Roll on day 13 ... Kaz xx
Now that is a good day. Not about the phone call but staying positive and having money in your account.
You are winning this battle and that’s the key. Keep on swimming.

Well in Kaz. Keep at it xxx

Hey CJ, I really am so proud of myself... money available to me used to mean ‘gamble’, so to be this position this late in the month feels so good I can’t tell you. I even gave the kids £20 each as a treat just for the sheer fun of it. Liberating and free - I’m definitely on track.
Not had change to add my bit onto your story yet, I’ll have a think over the weekend 🙂 have a good one! Kaz x
Kaz brilliant. I read this this morning and it made me smile. Glad you are doing ok and having more money to treat the ones you love. Keep up the good work. We are here with you every step of the way.
