Chiquita: I know exactly what you mean. While I only have a fraction of the clean time you have and while my work as an entrepreneur leaves me with gaps in income, I still wish I could see more progress. But, I guess, just as with anything else, it’s teeny baby steps. The good news is, I haven’t run up any credit card debt since April of this year and I paid other debts down a bit, but man … there is a long way to go. Good that you seeing the glass half full … the other way is too much of a downer 🙂 Just remember, my friend,, no matter how grim the finances look at the moment, it would have been 200 times worse had you continued gambling. Each day, month, year that you abstain, you’re that much richer. At least, that’s what I keep telling myself.
On this side, I’ve managed to take a tumble off one of my stairs and ended up with a badly sprained ankle. I spent the day with my foot up feeling mighty sorry for myself. I think I’m suffering a bit of PTSD after the fall, because I’m terrified of taking the stairs now. Stupid, eh? I’m amazed at the size of my ankle. Who knew a human body could puff up that way. Looks like I have a tennis ball under my skin.
Hope all is sunny and well in K-land. Love, RG
