Evening Anon, thanks for the kind words & the checking up on me 🙂 The lip dragging was purely the relationship with the dog but yep, compared to your little JCB I guess he is behaving 😉
I think your cigarette urges are addiction looking for a weaker point to exploit. I had the same issue with lottery products for a while...My brain knew there was no way I could cave on the fruities so it was hell bent on finding another way to be destructive. "Go on £30 of lottery tickets, won't do you any harm @ all" it said "What are you nuts?" I queried, knowing my idea of bulk buying @ the kiosk was never more than a tenner. Distract yourself when the urges come, they can't hurt you, only giving into them brings pain!
My sleeping is still completely off kilter but I'm calm & very much looking forwards to Christmas having dragged December in kicking & screaming with a Christmas dinner @ Harvester. Frozen roasties, tinned carrots, not exactly cordon bleu cuisine but then not orange chips either & for that I'll raise a glass of fizzy caffeine!
Hi anon.
It's probably the first Christmas I've been organised ever.
I moan every year about how bad the shops are people running round fighting to get presents.
So I thought I would get it done early.
The fitness is going well no news on the runner as of yet. But I bought another one. This one is a bit more manly as the other was a birthday present for the wife and is pink lol if you could see me you would laugh I'm on a pink running machine with pink earphones and a pink phone case thing strapped to my arm? I'll await Alan's response on that one 🙂
I stopped smoking September last year and tbh I don't even think about them anymore. But I do vape so in some way I guess I still smoke sort of?
I still envy smoker's though and love the smell which I can spot a mile away.
It's good to see you don't have urges to much. Mine come and go mostly when I'm doing nothing or have any plans. So I try to keep myself a bit busy. Most on last a minute or 2
Have a great weekend x
Hiya hun thanks for checking up on me :)) hope your not craving the cigs too much stick with it hun cos it's so worth it for your pocket and your health. I wish I'd never started again I had given up and made fatal mistake of 'having just one' so now I've got to give up all over again it's daft. Your doing so well! Giving up smoking and gambling takes some guts and strength that does. Wish you all the best hun I'm still gf :)) Lu xx
Another day almost over and I am still gf and will endeavour to remain so x
Morning 67 days, just popped on before running the gauntlet in town , shops getting really busy now. Then lovely house work and washing (joke) but there are no fairies that come and clear up despite my other half still thinking there is lol. Will catch up later x
68 days and still gf and will remain so. Family meal today after more cleaning etc., my dog is worse then my children used to be when they were littl but she is sooo cute x X
Morning anon the days are ticking on nicely now. Just 10 pound a day is 670 saved. Or as I like to say 670 quid not going into there pocket. Enjoy your family time and Sunday meal.

Hi Anon hun great to see your staying the course 🙂 your days are building up nicely. I hear what your saying about our dogs being worse than kids lol mines same but she's so cute too lol. Take care hun Lu xx
Day 68 almost over and not long got back home, had lovely family meal with my children and grand child, popped in to see my parents and later did some voluntary work now all clearances done. I'm enjoying life so much better since kicking mr g out of my life, I'm also still smoke free despite the urges .
Hello Lady ! Sorry I missed your party tother day :(( but glad your still going along nicely and more importantly there's been no new clothing issues :)) .
Today's numbers great but Tuesday's will be even better ( sorry just realised what number that is ) Lol ! .
Take care and talk to you soon x
Morning just a quickie on day 69 for now, off to work and it's a long day today so see you later, x
Back from work and catching up on some tv after a stressful drive through the city. EVery one seems to want to go where I want to go, at one stage was almost eating the steering wheel! Anyway another gf day almost clocked up x
Morning early start today and I'm at the start of the 70s now, working my way to my 100 day target. Didn't sleep well last night just sheer volume of work but at least my head is clear of gambling stress from losses. Best wishes to all on remaining gf X
Anon, you are doing brilliantly and I find you an inspiration. I'm not in for hyperbole or exaggeration; I simply know how challenging not gambling can be.
Fantastic to hear you're in the 70s now and you'll be on something like Day 96 come the New Year. You are helping my resolve immensely. Thank you.
Hey Anon!!
Would just like to say how proud I am of you ...catching up on your diary has given me some hope in life after my slip. Mr G has got a lot to answer for. Have to say I'm a little jel I'm not up there with you on the day count. Your frame of mind reminds me of how it feels not to have Mr G around and I want to get back there. Happy 70 days xx
