Hi Cat, Thanks for the post on my thread. You are right about what you said. I would rather have just about anything happen to me than to watch my daughter suffer. It’s funny you talked about control. I was just thinking about that. About all the things going on in my life right now that I have no control over. Especially my daughter’s happiness. Then I thought about the things I did have control over, which really is only one thing…ME…and then I only have control over how…ME…responds to all those things that I have no control over! So I have made a simple plan each day…to feel good. It’s a simple plan, but it’s not always an easy one. This simple plan has helped me not to gamble because if it is my sincere desire to feel good today, then I couldn’t possibly choose to gamble. And I know how I will feel tomorrow if I gamble today…NOT GOOD! Have a great day, Cat!
