Hi char,

I'm glad your back 🙂 don't get on here very often so maybe a bit behind with how long you have been back on. Fantastic news that you have reached a week :).

When it comes to your mates I know exactly how you feel. I've had to kind of put them on the back burner as I want to beat this addiction, and i also cant keep up with them staying out toll 6 am. i need my sleep so i can have a lovely day with my son the Next. If they were true friends they would understand. Christmas Eve is a time to staying in and watching Christmas movies with the family. 🙂

Take care and stay strong

Nicki

Thanks all xx

I had a day off work 2day... I have been sooo busy!

I managed 2 get a lot done tho... wrapped most of my Christmas presents, tidied up.... Visited a few family mbrs... Took Maddison 2 soft play... then had a nice afternoon with the christmas lights on playing with Maddison's singing santa and snowman lol..... She just kept laughing over and over it was so sweet.... It was just wot I needed 2 cheer me up lots of cuddles, lots of laughs....much more rewarding than gambling!

I hope everyone is ok xx

Thanks Joan xx

I feel much better 2day than I did yest, I went 2 sleep so early last nite and I slept in2 9... Which is not like me but I needed the rest I had no energy!

My bf has took Maddison out 2 see some of his friends this morning, I am staying in the warm 2day as I still don't feel 100%... I have been thinking a lot about my Gramps and how our 1st Christmas will be different without him here... I will miss him I saw the below poem that I liked... When I think of my Gramps this Christmas I am gonna smile and remember the good times, cus I know that is wot he would have wanted....Even tho if I could just have 1 pressie it would be him being here... But I have all the precious memories we shared and I will cherish them 4ever xx

I read Shiny's post the other day and it really touched me... I never felt worthy of nething in my life and I always felt I was never good enough and even tho I still stuggle with these feeling at times..... I can now see how far I have come on this journey and I am soooo proud of myself 🙂

I hope everyone is ok xx

This poem is 4 u Gramps xx

We all miss you so much and that will never change

I think of last Christmas when you were with us

How it was filled with so much happiness and love

As I look at the stars in the sky, I know you are not far away

So I sit here, and make this promise to you today

I will laugh, I will smile, I will sing, I will give Maddie a special cuddle and kiss from u

I will make sure my Christmas is full of all these things

And when I miss you I will say a prayer

Because I know you are watching, smiling always there xxxx

Merry christmas Gramps, I will never ever 4get u and I will always love u xxxx
