Day 264 - 25/10/15
Going on a 'date' today - leaving Paige with her auntie and me and the OH going to cinema + food - looking forward to it.
Have a lovely time YOU deserve it,
Suzanne xxx
You really do deserve it. So proud of you for being so strong through those urges when things are getting u down. Hope you had a lovely date 🙂
I may have slipped but I'm still here! Thanks for your support x
Day 265 - 26/10/15
Payday tomorrow - bit concerned as i think the maternity pay is going to drop. Its going to be a struggle but at least without gambling its copable (i hope)
Glad to see your still here Red. Yes i have been ever so close myself before on that slippery slope. I normally pop on here and poke around - sometimes reread my posts or look at others for inspiration. It would be so easy to give in.
Day 266 - 27/10/15
So busy nearly forgot to log in. Payday today. Money dropped 300 (due another 200 drop next month) Its going to get hard!
Day 267- 28/10/15
Still keeping strong
Stay strong! £200 less but not from gambling 🙂 x
Day 268 - 29/10/15
You are right - been tempted thinking 'i might win big' which would help out but then i rationalise and know it would just put me in a worse situation. Got to be even more careful with money now - so those rewards might have to be smaller/less expensive.
It's never a big win and never worth it. Instead of treat rewards maybe a healthy replacement hobby like crosswords, puzzles, knitting or one of those new colouring books for grown ups! Lol. I'm now looking at reducing the cost of the reward too but we do need our little piece of happy reward to reinforce the hard work!
Keep it up 🙂 you're doing amazing
Day 269 - 30/10/15
Great ideas.
Its not how much the reward costs that makes it good its just acknowledging the achievement.
Affected by gambling?
