Thank you ?

I asked Ant Middleton if I could be first reserve on account of him already being very happily married. 

Have a great day Boo! 

Love from Drama x

Thanks as always recovery russ ? truth be told I have a number of days off work.

Used to never plan that as oft it would lean to more gambling time.. I don't want to go there on this little vacation..or ever.. So over the next several days will be leaning into you all for some additional support.. Thank you.so my diaries some days will be waffle.

I have strategies planned.. Plan  a. Plan b. Plan c. To plan z... Its a very much work in progress vacation and one that I want to savour and look on as a positive..

Thanks all 

My busy day starts now

Happy St. David's day ?nearest thing to a daff

March.. Sprining into spring 

Feeling OK. 

No thoughts or wants to gamble and got my leap year day out the way also so if I go a whole year thats an Extraone ticked off too. 

Mr b r loaded with a cold so told him neck a good whisky. Bit of a 3 act play to be honest but we all show our sufferings in our own unique ways 

?

Me today.. Little trot n coffee.. Some  beds to make and bathroom cleaning.... 

It's very sunny here.. Cold wind but wrap up warm and it willbe fine.. 

Till later.. Enjoy your day all. Take it easy on yourself.. Lets for today not gamble

Night. 

I've had a not so bad day

Been to pub with friends and laughed so much it's an absolute tonic.. I feel so rewarded in life.

So met some lovely folk on chat today. We are getting stronger in number now.. We will get through this 

Sleep well all 

Better days ahead 

Boo 

??

Good morning.. Day 2 of march. 

I'll be truthful although I was out last night I missed chat too.. When I first came here with no idea of what to really expect I would surf diaries and read and absorb the contents and think what tender stories were out there. Early days on chat were relatively easy too. Always made welcome in group discussion. Given time and encouragement to talk.. Still could not quite get my head around virtual 'friends', that did take a time..

Then with regular connection.. And some days I could have just put a line through it all believe me.. You begin to feel the love and warmth and response from here..

I more or less started my journey with no joyous feelings.. This place has resurrected them.. I laugh so spontaneously now its crazy.. I even last night in the pub had a comfortable little conversation about gambling., the days of feeling awkward on the subject gone now..

Mr b r is sending me shopping for two new pillows today.. Duck down ones like the ones we had in an apartment in New Brighton last autumn.. But I wouldn't buy them then because it was gambling money.. Crazy.. Nice that I can do this

So today my decorator comes.. My little palace will shine.. Only having plain walls painted over.. I cannot deal with what I call busy patterns and designs. It has to be plain and easy on the eye.. 

So this is how far to date my recovery is bringing me 

Connecting 

Emotionally better

Financial freedom and healthier attitude to money

Just a better mind set in full. 

Thank you all... Everyone here who has come and gone and those still constant have left an impression.. Driving me forward to a better place. A happier place.

Today I will not gamble.. 

Take care travelling..jack frost has paid a visit here ...

Morning Boo,

I love your post, just full of warmth and loveliness ?. Missed you in chat too  

Have a wonderful day x

Feeling very laid back today murlo.. Really need to get a wiggle on.. Just feel like finally spring is springing and the sap is rising.. Back to you also.. Take it easy my friend

???Boo 

So a good day had.. Am expecting a flop In mood midweek but thats as it is.. And my mood ebbs n flows these days.. re adjustments I can cope with if it means no gambling 

No gambling  today and none planned Tuesday either.. 

Glad things are getting sorted for a few.. Its insane what this addiction does to us.. Can't believe I got soaked up in it.. Still I did so Pick my bottom lip up of the floor and stop sulking..

A few positives today.. I like to gleam at least one but today handsomely rewarded. 

New hat. Pillows. 

Getting my house painted and finished jig.. Now settled on my settee with a snoring scottie boo 

Night and bless all..

Boo ???

Boo,
