Scared again !

Nearly had a bad accident yesterday in really poor driving conditions , scared the living daylights out of me !

Don't want to get back in the car but have too for work, if I hadn't found some grip I would have hit the barrier and spun into an artic lorry beside me , think I aquaplaned , scary stuff ! Don't know if that's the right terminology ( I'm a woman! )

The reason I'm in a state is because my 6 year spree of destruction started really really gathering pace around the time of my car accident.

I know it's different , I didn't have an accident but it's kinda bought back the what if's !

I know I'm still strong and will not give in , I'm still here and for that 'believe ' the powers that be must have a reason for me to hang around still !

Silly to compare and start thinking what if's again but relating to past events in the destruction phase is a way of also trying to understand what the hell happened !

Got stroppy with a mate because I was in a mess and feel horrible about that too !

But still really really strong and I know when I arrive to work safe and sound I'll have my smile back on my face 🙂

Just gotta get back in the car !

For today , those bad dark clouds can chase me around but by god they are not going to get me !

Hope all have a safe bet free day

Lucy day 56 x

Hi Lucy

Well done for staying strong! Must have been a scary experience!!

Your attitude is great Lucy.. you are learning quickly not to let things get to you and talking about them is obviously helping you a lot.

I really enjoy reading your diary because no matter what, you always seem to put a smile on my face!

Well done - hope you enjoy yet another bet free day! x

Good Morning World

For a change i do not have much to say lol

Off work as not feeling too well but have no thoughts of gambling!

Need my pennies to give to the ex for a place and believe me that is where it will go not in the slots!

If i ever have a friday off i would go down the bingo hall at lunchtime with an elderly friend but never spent much time with her just played the slots, not today though and not because i don't feel well.

It is because i NO longer want to play the dreaded slots, i NO longer want to waste my money, I NO longer want to feel a failure and most of all I WANT to be happy.

I know now the only way to achieve this is to remain bet free and that's exactly what i will be!

So much for not alot to say as usual lol

Hope all remain bet free today

Lucy x
