Fallen Mans Recovery Diary

Hi mate, sounds like things have calmed down a bit which is good, 134 days is excellent! They soon mount up!

Im sitting at 120 which is pleasing , Im still having the occasional dream of big wins, but these are just dreams.

Other issues I need sorted which Im now going to address, but i'll talk about that in my diary.

Glad things going good, happy new year!

Hi FM,

Thanks for your message, it's good to read that you are staying strong , and in a good mind set, 134 days is a great achievement, well done.

Hi mate. 137 days excellent going my friend.
That number rings a bell to me it's my dads house number where I used to live and where my gambling started.
Anyhow have a enjoyable gambling free weekend.

Hey there number 1 supporter.

Sorry it's taken so long to reply. Thanks again for taking the time to post on New Years Eve. It really was appreciated and even managed to raise a smile - albeit momentarily. Your advice is always welcome and it was taken. Although to be fair I didn't take much convincing. The leather jacket has been hung in the closet...I'll probably be too terrified to wear the thing now knowing how much I (and I emphasise I) spent on it.

It was a massively overwhelming few weeks, I did gamble, one upset me the other served a purpose. Neither can be changed and as the saying goes 'there's no use crying over spilt milk' so I'm not. Feeling much much better the last couple of days than I have been. My man flu almost finished me off...but not quite, I'm a woman after all and we Geordies are made of tough stuff.

I also wanted to say thanks for commenting about my gambling life colliding with my real life. You're right I already knew everything you said but sometimes having someone point it out makes it hit home a bit more. I sometimes feel a bit of a fraud here because I haven't as yet, nor do I have any intention of being honest about it at home. I suspect you are one of the few here who gets it. I don't know your reasons, you don't know mine, but being honest isn't an option for me and if the day comes that I do have to be honest, you're right, I know the outcome. So my only option is to stop before that day comes.

Enough about my messed up life anyway. Sorry to hear things aren't great for you at home. I get you don't want to discuss it here but if you ever did I'm told I'm pretty good at dishing out advice - rubbish at taking my own but pretty good with other people's problems. I could be barking up the wrong tree (and I apologise if I overstep the mark) but I have a suspicion I can relate slightly given I rarely see my other half due to his shifts and we annoy the hell out of each other if we see each other too much. This last week being a prime example.

I just had a bit chuckle at your last post, about being back at work. I always imagined I'd love to be a lady of leisure, I've just written in my own post how I'm back to work next week and I'll be able to get my routine back. Yip, turns out I like routine too, sends me all to pot when I've not got one. Plus, every time I've had holidays in recently I've come down with a cold, which ultimately leads to cold sores. Being a lady of leisure is a nice thought but wouldn't work for me

Anyway, I'll leave it there. Embrace the routine of work and have a good week.

Take care

Jess

Alrighty lad hows things? Nothing much to report at my end, apart from havent bought the headphones yet, waiting while before deciding also, trying to clear debts a bit quicker.

Looking at Sennheisur Momentum currently but no doubt will change my mind another 40 times! 🙂

Alrighty lad, hope all good,

Went for the Vmoda M100's in the end, good all rounder excellent lows , and good mids and highs with a punchy bass. Time to test them out with some serious dog walking, good bye belly ( hopefully!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
