Thank you Laura for such a lovely post.
It is almost 3am and I am just getting to bed – I have everything done and ready for the morning . I am looking forward to a peaceful Christmas Day .
I have spent so much on Christmas that I am a little shocked with myself . The strange thing is I have spent less than I normally would spend gambling over a month .
Instead of feeling miserable and worried sick , I know I can dip into my savings so I won’t run out if money. (I will try not to use my savings),
I know that I have given really thoughtful gifts to everyone and I also have been able to be generous with those less fortunate than I am. I can’t wait until the morning when family will open their gifts
.
My mum asked me to go to the casino with her today – I said no I won’t be going – I plan to spend money on myself and my son in the January sales. If I go I will lose that money and also feel so guilty about it I will end up getting no new clothes.
So that’s it – I said no .
However my resolve is weakening as it always does when I visit home – plans are starting to formulate in my head – I need to stop them straight away. .i need to remember my payday target !38 days – I can do this!
Happy Christmas everyone
