Apologies for my tardiness in replying to comments/suggestions/misjudgments and other. My life has been busy. No time for gambling.
I agree, IDI, mindsets need to be retrained and gambling made impossible. Sometimes it works. At other times we fail.
Yes, Megna, my life is blessed in many ways but it’s not all one Big Party. Creating more stress is the last thing I need in the face of a major economic recession -I hope to God that I am wrong but it seems inevitable.
No, RG, I didn’t board the runaway train on this occasion. I stood on the safe platform.
Last but not least ,Charles, I’m sorry to disprove your predictions and projections, using my past transgressions as a yardstick; I stayed a step ahead and have managed to withdraw all income and other monies that arrived in my current account, thus resisting the temptation to gamble online and as Megna suggested (it was my plan, too, I waited until the coast was well clear to log in and extend my ban. I did not misquote GA “tips” I may have paraphrased. Sorry if I didn’t give the verbatim version. I stand corrected on that issue.
Positive comments are far more helpful than sarcastic remarks when addressing a CG (my term for me in relation to gambling!)
The saying “We catch more flies with honey than with vinegar” applies!
To finish, I wish to express my deep sadness to hear that “Bettie” is no longer with us on this Forum, or indeed on this earth. She and I went back a long way together on both on GT and in Real Life.
Ar dheis De go raibh a h-anam dilis. (May her sweet soul rest on the right side of God.)
Thank you for sharing the very sad news with us,Kathryn, I will write on your thread soon.
God bless!
