Hiya Hun ! Not sure what to call you now ? Kelly / ODATT ?. We always seem to be commenting on the same posts , I suppose its inevatable really , anyway thanks for pointing out the 11 weeks bit on my diary , so busy looking at day's I forgot about the weeks and months adding up .
Glad you're as positive as ever in your comments to myself and the posts of others , you've given me much strength along the way and its a privalige to be on this journey with you .
Take care for now Kelly and best wishes, ................ALAN CG !.
Hi K. Thanks for taking time to read my ramblings. I write mostly for myself but appreciate folks like yourself for your caring and support. It's priceless. -joan
Time for an update methinks...I've been on GC since I woke up, I'm using my day off wisely right? Maybe but the truth is I'm now sat in the Tesco car park cowering in the car waiting for Mr Gamble to get the hell out of the passenger seat! I'm a bit tired & the age old fear of spending money slipped into my mind as I drove out to the shops earlier, I'm also nursing a couple of injuries (that ankle I turned over a month ago is not better & my shoulders can't decide which one has the injury) so all in all when I heard about £30 not hurting I found myself agreeing! I know it will & I have absolutely no intention of going back to my poison but a few lottery tickets wouldn't hurt right? w*f?!?
Probs not the best place to have pulled into given that I can probably see the kiosk from here if I crane my neck but then again when it comes to gambling, I never really did have my wits about me! I have a dog to walk & swimming club to attend, for that is my life now, filled with stuff that normal people do 🙂 & on that notes, thanks for listening guys, "Get lost you!" I'm going home!
Drive home carefully and safely, xxx
Hey Kelly , whats all this gambling nonsense ?, lottery tickets indeed !.
Don't you remember ? That's something you used to do ,but not anymore , now you have a different life , one with different values and one filled with so many things to do . So to be honest , you have no bleeeeeding time to do anything else !! LOL.
But well done on fighting the urge anyway ! . Stay safe and well Honey !....................................Alan
ODAAT thanks for dropping by and a big well done for kicking those urges back were they belong.
Hey Girl , I promise I won't sound like your my daughter anymore , even though as a father you would still make me proud !.
Thanks for the honesty , thats what makes you stand out from the crowd and I'm never , ever here to judge what anyone does only to support , as long as it work's for you who gives a sh+t ? .
Stay strong and positive ODAAT/ Kelly ? . I'm still out on that one ! LOL Take care Hun x
Me again !. I know it was a compliment ! and thats the way I took it , I didn't realise you still bought the odd ticket and I know that being the person you are you wanted to share that with me , thats what I love about this site and our posts , nothing's hidden , no lies or deceit , god knows weve all done enough of that whilst gambling . I'll be your dad whenever you want , [ but not in a weird way of course ] LoL ! And if you need to adopt me thats fine to !. Ha ! Ha! Ha! .
Always here for support , you know that by now !. Keep da faith sister !! Alan

Next time you agree on something massively silly as £30 not hurting...i will personally hunt you down & **@&&@&ВЈВҐ@&&$@ ***@&&$*@* *@#&@$ so you will never ever find yourself agreeing on stuff like that again ! ( me not violent or danger to society ..once again lol)
In other words - it hurts! You know now so no messy games with mr G Sesuo....else...as above 🙂
Keep choosing NO
Thanks for dropping by. Yes, the serenity poem...such wise words. I'm getting there!
Hope you're doing ok after your recent brush with Mr. G. Does he hitch a ride often? I wonder what was going on with you for him to show his face? Well done on showing him the door 🙂
Speak soon, LB x
