Hi Irene

Just thought I would have a quick catch up with you to see how things are going? I see you are now past the 20 week mark of remaining gamble free!! Well done you.

Hopefully, we can catch up on "chit chat" or by email.

Take care.

Hey,

Nothing wrong with uneventful infact I like those days now. Tired of chasing the 'dream'. Ok we do need some excitement but I think we are more than capable of getting our kicks out of something far healthier than gambling. 20 weeks plus what an achievement really pleased you are doing so well and still posting daily.

Day 143

Im not sure whats up, keeping this diary's becoming a bit of a chore! Unusual, it had become part of my daily routine and now I almost forgot to post again. Anyway, all's going ok 🙂

Hey Irene,

Wow that's awesome! 143 Days in sobriety, much congrats to you.

Hi Irene,

Glad to see your still doing so well. I suppose like anything we do on a regular basis it can sometimes become a chore, maybe that's a good thing, maybe that gambling is moving further and further away from your life and your ready to spread your wings, or maybe it might be dangerous to break a winning formula. Only you know that. . .?

What ever you decide to do be proud of what you have and are achieving, you said it in your last post, today is a daughting day but you won't be gambling.

Enjoy your night out,

Day 147=21 weeks gamble free

I feel really guilty that I've neglected my diary and actually not spent much time around the forum this week. I've been prioritising family stuff yet I realise that in order to support others, I need to keep myself gamble free.

I made a committment to post daily in my diary for 6 months and I need to honour that committment- must do better!!!!!!!

Otherwise, life's OK at the moment. Surprisingly I've settled well to lone living and me n Paddypaws are developing a routine which works for us (although I forgot his bedtime piddle and he had me up at 3am- oops!)

I'm still gamble free- was offered charity raffle tickets at my local shop and almost bought some without thinking- stopped myself and gave a small donation instead.

My night out Thursday was good- got freebie tickets to a charity play went along and had a great night. Friday evening was spent with my son for a catch up, yesterday with family and then me n Paddy went to friends for dinner- lovely 🙂

It seems that spring has sprung here- fresh, dry, clean days. I think thats given me a wee lift!

Oh! An update.....contacted CAB- my debt "guru" still isnt moving very quickly. Its now 4 months since I 1st sought help and still not sorted a plan. I'm reluctant to change advisors at this point but getting really frustrated- and not answering any calls just in case its a creditor!!!!

21 weeks- phew!

Day 148

Neglected no more!!!

Still gamble free and ambling along without great event which is great!
