Dear (((Bettie)))! Nice to hear that you went and visited Jules. How is she doing in recovery?? I’m happy to hear that you didn’t stop at that video slot café. There is nothing new under the sun when it comes to gambling. Same old, same old! Ken L used to say that he didn’t gamble anymore as he didn’t know if he had another recovery in him. I now know exactly what he was talking about. It’s a dangerous game we play when we think we can have the occasional gamble. My fairly recent bout of gambling over a week left me scared for the first time in over three years. I didn’t think I could stop again. For years I would gamble for a day and then stop the next day. That didn’t happen the last time. I’m a slow learner when it comes to some things and have to experience it for myself before I believe some things. Use my experience as a cautionary tale. Carole
