New beginnings!

Hey,

That's a very good point about the alcohol.. I'll have to ponder that one because I'm not too sure of the answer!

Now get back to work! lol 😉

Hi Lucy,

Glad you got your smiley head back on.

You have come such a long way from how you were when you joined, hopefully I can get to the same place!

Keep smiling!

Hi Lucy, great posts from you today, your feelgood factor is bouncing off the pages, and its infectious !!!

Your so right with what you said on my diary, it felt great to just hand over the cash for my car repair 🙂

You make me smile, and for that I thank you, your such an inspiration.

Have a great evening

Cameron

Good Morning World

Smiling like a Cheshire Cat!

Do i need a top up on the teeth whiteing or is that too dangerous incase i blind someone!

Anyways , just a short post

Feeling good , no urges but thought alot last night about gambling and know i really really must keep my guard up at all times but also know at times it's ok to NOT think about a bet

I cannot put into words again how much i personally have found this site my saviour, by the support from here and also from a close friend i have found the strength to remain bet free and also start adjusting my life to turn it into the positive , THANKS eveyone!

Anyways, the sun is not shining outside by it is radiating from Lucy's heart ( or is that cause i was walking the fells close to Sellefield a couple of weeks ago?)

16 Weeks bet free for me today and I'AM FEELING GOOD (great song , it is on my fav playlist now lol)

Keep Strong All

Smiling Lucy xxxxxx

Welcome to the bar and yes I do believe your glass is half full!!!!!

In recovery it does seem when things get tough,clouds seem to cover even the most brightest of us it does not take long before we march through it and head toward the light.

Next week when I get to enjoy a pint or two the first person Lucy I will raise my glass to is you!!!!

Inspired and Smiling toooo!!!

Duncs stepping forward never back.

o*g....The lovely Lucy halfway down page 2...I think not hun!

Ummm...Smoking, maybe we can give up together, no-where near ready yet...but 1 day.

Can picture you like me in that stupid advert huddled under the umbrella in the rain.

One thing at a time!

Am still going strong..and intend to!

Love and big smiles back to ya!

Lol.. pmsl you nutter!

One of my closest friends is the epitome of feminine and yet she smokes roll ups!! She uses one of those machine things that rolls them perfectly but I dunno, I would still get it wrong I reckon!! Think I’ll join you with the pipe lololol!

About the alcohol.. I’ve been thinking and I definitely don’t want to replace one addiction with another! Not that I think I’m addicted to it, more that I think I am capable of getting addicted to it! And I can do without having to sign up to AA as well! So I’ve decided to give the booze a break for a while..!

As for you, if you're doing it for enjoyment, then leave the d**n car at home and go out, lippy on, high heels, nails painted, cigarette holder in hand and let your hair down! You deserve it and being a free woman is something worth celebrating right?

Well done buddy on 16 weeks.. we’re flying hey? I am having absolutely no urges whatsoever, don’t even think about gambling. Although, I have made a massive sacrifice this week. Me and a group of friends normally go to Royal Ascot but I gave it a miss this year.. think it would have been a step too far and I ain’t gonna risk my recovery that much!!

Left my job today…. thought I’d have a long weekend before Monday! Am looking forward to it, let’s hope it’s the right move!

I’m still laughing at the thought of this lady with long nails, lip gloss and tobacco stuck in her teeth! Lololol.. you c.rack (that word seems to get blocked out for some reason?!) me up!

Sorry to have taken up so much space on your thread!! Hope I didn’t bore you toooooo much!

Always here for you buddy.. just shout!

Keep going and keep smiling.. you're doing just great!! 🙂

Congratulations Lucy on Gettin to 16 weeks and having joy in your heart. Think I saw you by sellafield, you were glowing, like you'd eaten too much Ready Brek. You were puffing on a roly the size if a fat cigar which was slowly unravelling in the Cumbrian air, was that you? Steve.
