Hi ODAAT...just a reminder to get your glad rags on Junnnie coz blondie's having a soirГ©e ;-)... she's now a member of an exclusive club I can't wait to join ...and I must say you're far too modest ODAAT...law of averages aside you were the first to my rescue and surely for many other gamcarers...158 days ago on my other thread 'new life to' you asked me to "make today the first day of the rest of my life", I took your invitation and haven't looked back:-) thanks Junie..from your friend OAU Ginger

Well Hello!!! Looks whos finally decided to stop by!

I owed it to you AND myself to come and check it out and boy was I entertained.

I deffo second the hundred others when they say you should write this into a book!!

Amazing way with words, deffo a good read and very relatable 🙂

Your such an inspiration and Im not sure if Ive said thanks enough so wanted to do it here seeing as your always kind enough popping to my side ha.

I wont lie when I say I feel a bit jealous reading how well youve done! good jealous, I cant wait til I have money to spend on random stuff from IKEA!!!!! Thats what gambling does to us. Makes us so unhappy that even the littlest things in life now seem like real treats.

With you help im sure Ill be able to reach where you are 🙂

Much Love xxx

ODAAT, great to read you are still going strong. Your encouragement to others warms my cheeks. You are doing tremendous good. Iwish you well on your journey. John

ODAAT thanks for commenting on my diary and congrats on being GF so long, keep fighting the urges. Let's beat this awful addiction together!

Also congrats to Phoenix on reaching 50 days, keep fighting!

Well Mrs D, I spent the day with Mr Gamble pecking @ my head yesterday...Of all things trying to persuade me to open an online account?!? It baffles me why he would waste his breath on such futile suggestions! Even the arrival of Mr El Paso to cook up a kilo & a half of chilli-for-wimps did not deter him, resorting to his good old fashioned lottery tactics when I failed to succumb!

Sometime after 6 I tired of the company & dragged out my sparkling clean running trainers & bungied a somewhat demented dog to my waist (it's been a while)! I had planned to do parkrun that morning despite the NM laughing in my face & reminding me I'd barely crawled out of bed before midday all week...Sometimes it's good to let him be right 😉 I turned the alarm off @ 5ish & managed to roll over & straight back to sleep when I woke up anyway so flushed with guilt I decided to tackle the course! Mr Gamble finally lost pace despite me 'running' (& I use that term very loosely) like someone twice my age, around about the 2nd K when I laughed in his face! Quads are a little stiff today but my hip survived, my shins are fine, the dog didn't trip me over & most important of all, my trainers are still neon green 🙂 I hate running (in fact I've probably documented every one I've done since keeping a diary) but maybe I won't leave it so long next time!

It's still weird that all his attempts of late have been trying to tempt me into different forms & I am eternally grateful for every single post I have read proving that any type of gambling is a mug's game! Just as it was so important @ the start of my journey when I first read that this beast could not be tamed, so it remains today!

Keep fighting everyone - ODAAT
