Day 94.
R.I.P to all those who were so tragically killed in the Manchester terror attack. What a cruel world we are now living in. Prayers also for the injured and those remaining in a critical condition.
Take care all.

Our Lady.
Brilliant well done xo
Thanks very much Katie.
Congratulations on getting past your 100 days OL!
Thank you so much Matt.
Massive congratulations on reaching the 100 day milestone!! It's a great achievement xx
Day 108.
Thank you want to stop. Much appreciated.
My monthly goals for May were all achieved bar two - one bill I could not pay (no damage caused and can pay this month instead) and no money put away for Christmas food shopping. Again, no cause for concern as I am still living on a fairly tight budget. So mini goals for this month:-
1. Pay all bills.
2. Take each day as it comes.
3. Do not worry about work - just go and do my best then come home again.
4. Remain g.f.
Haven't even given gambling a thought lately. Just no place for it either.
Off work today so off into town for more presents and cards! Story of my life lately but so glad I have the funds to be able to do this so all good really.
Take care all and so willl I.

Congratulations My Lady . Your 108 Days gamble free is inspiring in the early days of my recovery .
It is an opportunity for me to put this madness behind me and start living some kind of life .
Good days / Bad days ! Whatever comes along I doubt it will be worse than the misery of gambling addiction .
Many thanks and best wishes ....... stephen
Thank you so much Stephen. I will follow yr progress. Stay strong.
Belated but well done on reaching the century club our lady , top stuff
Great stuff clocking up those days, tonight I take inspiration from your post on day 108 so thank you S 🙂
Day 141.
Thank you Sharon and Guestuser.
Well, it's been a while. Been so busy in work lately (and hating it unfortunately)! It does seem to be ringing true however, that saying "better the devil you know" and, it pays the bills.
Off on holiday from work all this week, hence the very late post! Work has been that manic, that I even forgot my beloved Wimbledon was fast approaching. I am therefore, delighted to be off, during the second week - the best week. My eyes will be square by the time I return to work next Monday!
Life is just so much less stressful when there is no gambling in it. I have enough of that in work. I can deal with any ongoing issues, as long as I haven't got that added pressure of losing all my money on gambling and then struggling to pay my bills! Who needs that??!!!
Lots of lovely events fast approaching, involving my lovely family and friends. Why spoil any of that by losing any more of my hard earned salary on gambling? I must be mad, not to mention, a fool!
So life is ticking along and as long as there is no gambling involved, that's ok with me and the safest way to be.
Take care each and every one of you and most importantly, stay safe and so will I.
Our Lady
