Beautiful! Glad you enjoyed your time out. I think that is when we really start to realize we can do this. When we start filling our time with things that we are enjoying and we actually are present and not wanting to be gambling instead. It’s like wow, I can build a life for me. And not live it for everyone else which makes us want to escape. Really happy for you. You deserve to spend realistic amounts on yourself and your happiness. Instead of throwing it away for a fix of numbness. I don’t compare everything to gambling all the time. But the reminder that I would waste so much says its ok to treat oneself. Starting week five. Gamble free 2018. Almost through January. All sorts of milestones. I will be back hopefully by weeks end even for a little. xo take care, Laura
