Day 32 Gamble Free
I am a “recovering” compulsive gambler….
I met a friend for lunch today, and I had a little time before my appointment, I had to buy my new car tag. I thought about going to gamble, but I went to the mall to look for a Christening gift. Then I went on to buy my tag. It didn’t take as long, and the thought crossed my mind again. I actually had to have a conversation with myself, I reminded myself that I have made it to 32 days and if I acted on that feeling to gamble, I would be starting completely over again. So, I stopped by Walmart picked up a couple items and came home. I know it’s no one but God who is walking with me, keeping me on track. There was a time when I would have gambled, lost all the cash in my purse and used every dollar in my account (ATM).
I would have been sitting here beating myself up, having a serious pity party; but, I stayed strong, and now I’m headed into Day 33 Gamble Free…
One day at a time….
