Dear Larry! First of all, I want to congratulate you on almost 27 months of gamble free time. It’s a great accomplishment and a witness to other rcgs that it can be done, a day at a time. What a brilliant concept the one day at a time. I have wanted to tell you almost from the start that I was having a difficult time getting to know you and getting close to you like I have with other people from this site. Getting close to other people is difficult for some people as it represents fear that they can be hurt by that person. For myself, I would rather risk being hurt than not getting close, but I do choose the people I want to be close to. Most of us don’t have any big events in our life on a day to day basis. My life would be considered boring by most people. I don’t work and am home alone most days as my husband works out of town. The big event in my life right now is the new GA group.  When I started to read your post where you said getting to know myself would be getting to know you, my initial thought was "now there’s a cop-out." But then I read the rest of your post and was very happy to see that you did share some of your personal life.  I am interested to hear about what you do when you go to New Orleans, what you saw, what you ate, etc. And I’m sure you have cute or funny stories about your granddaughter. But of course that will be up to you whether you let us into that part of your life. I hope that you know me well enough to know that none of this is meant as critisism. I just want to know who you are besides being a rcg. Carole
