Good evening Carl
I am hoping all is good for you and your remaining strong and upbeat!
Love reading your diary (think I might have said that before?!) but you fill me with hope as your further down the line than me. You offer so much support to others too!
Good luck with your running!

Carl mate there aint no stopping me now. I feel a karoke song coming on hahahahahahaha. Onwards and upwards mate.
day 65
towards the end of my gambling and at the beginning of my journey on the roller coaster ride i used to hate/dread saturdays and sundays because they were the days i did the most damage, my whole weekend would be planned around my betting, thes days i look forward to saturdays as its now a day of rest, a day off work and a day that if i choose i may sit down to watch a bit of footy. i dont know if in a couple of weeks i will be saying i enjoy saturdays because when im in full swing of marathon training saturdays will be my long run day.
so on that note im gonna enjoy my last free, easy, lazy saturday and then head off out for bite to eat and few beers tonight
happy gamble free saturday one and all
