Thanks Ican, Velvet and P, Guess what Ican and P, it’s a brand new month, it’s also a brand new day!!!! I was humming and hawing whether to put a March month forum, but I am going to do it, and I would like you both to join me as we get through March – one day at a time.  Always remember every gamble free day is an achievement.  It is such a horrible addiction and when you feed it just a little bit… even for a day… it is like a snake getting into your system and twisting you around to get you back to those machines.  I know that I can only do it a day at a time.  I also know once I give in to the temptation and go back gambling it is a continual struggle and fight to stay away.  I am as close as both of you from my next bet!!! 
Velvet, thank you for taking the time to post, and as always you are such an ecouragement to me to continue to have a gamble free life.  It is strange that I had not thought that way until you posted it on my page one time.  I was always thinking about beating my longest gamble free time and not about a gamble free life. I am not saying that in the back of my mind it is still there, but it is not the focus.  I am at 4 months gamble free, however, I had 7 months gamble free before that so I know that it is not ******** the months that matters, but focusing on a gamble free life, one day at a time.
Wishing everyone a wonderful gamble free day!!!One day at a time my sweet lord…
