well coming to the end of another week, have I gambled? Yes 6 pounds, how much have I spent this month not a lot. I'm liking my decision to gamble in a controlled mannor, I'm not saying I would be right for many cgs but for me it is. I look forward to Tuesdays game and see friends and socialise.
on my lunch break, another day down, not sure what I'm doing this weekend, prob relax at home, may go play golf on Sunday.
Another weekend flew by, went to some charity shops and watched all the godfather films, not a bad weekend just went too quick as allways. Went to work today then had my injection then voices clinic. Today talked about how I perceive myself and how if voices start write down what they are saying and if they are negativethik of reasons why they teare not true.
Another day has come, one where I will play my poker game in the evening. I'm trying to save money for next month so I wont be doing anything else this week or next.
played poker last night for a bit of entertainment, was good to see friends, didn't last very long and was back at home an hour later lol. Only spent ten pounds tho so not too bad. Got one week left of work after this week then some time off that I'm spending decorating hopefully have some time to myself tho for a break .
I think what I do is as important as what I don't do, with this respect I'm thinking of applying for a role in a different department, not a hundred percent sure but I've been doing the same job for a year and a half now and could do with a change. Its based in the pharmacy dept just weighing up whether its the best role for me, just have to wait to see its responsibilities and pay and hours etc and go from there. Could do with a change getting a bit bored of my current responsibilities. See how it goes.
just been to town, got a coffee, back at home now. bit bored thought id come on here.
I was just thinking actually Adam -
A few weeks ago I hit a similar crossroads in my life and when it came down to it I pretty much bottled it, I settled for less - and whilst that's tolerable for now if it turns sour at any point I'll just have to accept what comes because it's what I settled for... Also I'll probably be wondering 'what if' for a long time now! Especially during the inevitable downturn which will emerge at some point in my current role!
It just great to hear that you are ready, willing and able to break out of your comfort zones when required. I tip my hat to you mate ?
thanks a lot for taking the time to read my posts signalman and thanks for the confidence boost. When the right job opportunity comes up ill be there and pounce lifes too short for wondering what ifs as u say. Just do it and I'm loving I to brand names that hold true to how to succeed at life. And if u go wrong and take a wrong turn soo what its better than taking no turn at all. Just sorting my bedroom out this afternoon getting all my DVDs and cds and stereo in order.
end of another week, on to next week tomo and whats that brings who knows. Wanted to play online poker last night and thought about looking for a non uk egistered site but thought they would probably be dodgy and that ive come soo far so should hold tight on the gambling front and stick to the tuesday night game hoping that i can save more towards paying off the mortgage and making me more secure and prepared for the later years in my life should i be soo lucky to get there. Rambling again but on the plus side not gambled this weekend so thats a big plus plus i finnished my bedroom today barring putting up some pictures.

Oh Adam,
I'm deeply concerned about you. Sticking to poker once a week just £5 and not chasing. Good to hear, i'll have a bet in the Ebor at York next month ( just 1 x £5 bet on a horse and if it loses no chasing my money back ). It's never to late to stop but rule number 1 Be honest, not with the people on here but WITH YOURSELF. Reset the clock on your GF days and try again mate, no-one will judge you. Don't you get it we can't stop & that's what brought us here.
Stay Strong
