Day 143 wow!!!!!!!!!

Good morning diary

143 days of not spending even one penny on any form of gambling and still getting stronger wiser Nd further away from that awful self destructive addiction

I don't know yet what's happening at work, but I sure know what's happening with gambling a BIG minus 0 from me again today, it's been booted right out of the equation already today and that is sooo positive for me

Have to rush to work now else I will be late.

Abstaining and maintaining slowly but surely one day at a time to much much happier times

Wishing everyone a happy positive and strong gambling free day

144 days of winning and not losing.

It felt soooo good to congratulate Steve (delboygolf) this morning on 6 months of abstaining. It really is a big achievement for him.

Today I should get my answer from work, I hope so.

No thoughts or urges, gambling again today has already been kicked right out of the window.

Onwards and upwards abstaining and maintaining one day at a time, life is so much better this way

I will not be playing today simply because I choose not to

Wishing everyone a strong and positive and happy gambling free day

Evening dear diary

Still no news on the work front, very frustrating and draining, but I have come home and not had any urges to play online slots, gambling seems so far away at the moment and I hope it gets further and further away as I continue to abstain and maintain one day at a time.

Another big positive for me today, my next door neighbours have sold their house and have actually moved out taking their beloved 14 dogs with them to a better environment where they can run around and have more space.

No more being woke up 3 times a night by 14 dogs, oh bliss and that has not cost me a penny.

Here's to another day noise free now, And of course gambling free HOW GOOD IS THAT

Lol piece and quiet at last. Well done on 145 days.

145 days done and dusted, that's 21 weeks on Monday,

It's been a strange few months, the determination to keep abstaining has taken over from the urges to gamble and thoughts of winning. (winning eh what a loser I was).

I am not a loser now, I want to keep winning now in every sense if the word

I woke up to 2 big positives this morning

1 A good nights uninterrupted sleep.Dogs have gone next door.

2 A clear head because of no hangover with having gambled.

I still find it hard to believe how I wasted my life and my OHs for 7 years because gambling controlled my every thought.

Those days are well behind me today, done and dusted but will never be forgotten.

My life is already so much richer all round, because gambling now has no part in it.

I am abstaining and maintaining one day at a time

and I can live with this and that has to be soo positive for me.

Late shift today, to get through and then 3 whole days off,which I will really enjoy and appreciate because there will be no gambling to ruin my time off.

Wishing everyone a happy positive and peaceful gambling free day.

It's amazing how sleep changes the way we look at the world - I can't imagine the racket that 14 dogs can create, one or two are already loud enough for me. Hope you enjoy those three days, and that the temptations that once took our days off are now memories that take a back seat to the enjoyable things that we can do in our time off.

Well done, keep up the positivity!

Ryan

Morning Suzanne
