Hi there

so good to hear you enjoyed celebrating without rewarding yourself with a gambling spree. Proves we can all enjoy ourselves much better without it.

Well done with the ciggies too.

Hi Irene

3 calender months 3 100% pay rises (as Dunc would say)on the trot!! You deserve to be treating yourself. That's fantastic!!

I can't wait for those days to come for me

I'm sure you will give those "yucky yucky's the elbow before long (I hate cigarettes)!! Then you. will have even more nice treats comming your way.

Still praying for you and your son.

Chef Feb is having the night off tomorrow but as it's Ash Wednesday on Wed, have decided to make a nice hearty Fishermans pie!! With choc chip left over shortbread!!

Take Cate and speak soon.

Feb.x

Hi Irene,

Thank you so much for your thoughts . I am doing ok and on the right road to getting back to my old self. So very well done on reaching the 3 month mark you have put so much into your recovery and you deserve all the benefits that come with that. You continue to be a very valued member on this site .

Try not to stress to much about your sons mortgage they don't rush but I'm sure it will be ok, your credit history can't affect your son unless you share a bank account.

Keep going with the cigs you will get there eventually.

Take care
