Bettie!! I want to thank you for your continued encouragement. Your story about the customer yesterday – just like me yesterday. Thankfully we had a very nice Asst. Mgr helping and it sounds like you are the same. It is nice to know there are still some caring, understanding and good people in today’s world. Just hope that I can someday get myself on straight enough to be helpful to others too.
Off to mull the mind over and try to figure out what step to take next.
Until later. . . . Have a great day!!!!
Hi Bettie – thank you for your note on my journal. It is a small world – I am in Dayton, OH. Wow I can’t believe you were going to the casino that often – I didn’t do that but when I did go once or twice a month it would be like I didn’t want to quit. Hitting rock bottom this past week and withdrawing my bill money was just my awakening of what I was doing to myself. Unfortunately – my stress and nightmare right now is I don’t have the money for this month now to pay the rent, electric and cable – of which is my life line since it is not easy for me to get out. I don’t know where to begin to recover or what to do. I don’t have credit cards or anything like that – just my monthly living expenses and last month I was stupid and took out a few payday loans. Those will be my big problem to get paid off once I can get back on track with my regular bills which are now a month behind considering it is already October. The cable/internet I need too as they are my lifeline being alone. I sleep alot under normal conditions, kind of sleepless this past weekend though. The days I do feel good were the days I would go to the casino.
I’ve read a little of your journal and wow, I can’t believe how much of a problem this is for so many and how much strength everyone has to gather to get through this. I had no clue. I haven’t had a chance to read everything here but I look forward to reading all of it in the next week and I hope I have a chance to get to know more people as I go through this.
I am looking forward to meeting you in a chat also – I missed out on this evenings as I was just too mentally drained to look at the computer any longer.
Thank you again for your support and I hope I am able to be supportive for you and anyone else. God Bless!
