Hi Bettie, I was glad to see your post on my thread. I can’t seem to catch anyone when I’ve gone on the weekend chat. I started the savings account today, and hubby didn’t say anything else about the gambling. I am having urges this evening because I’m stressed out over family issues again. But I won’t give in, posting to keep myself busy. Hope you start feeling better!!!Seize all the good things in life
Hi Bettie, I hope you are feeling better soon. I can relate to your feeling of loneliness and social isolation. I can be with others and feel soo lonely or that I don’t belong, I feel that way also with family members. For myself, I think it’s because I never had any self worth or esteem. I was always the people pleaser. But Bettie, we are worth it, we have come a long way in our rcovery, we need to be happy with ourselves first. Take care!!!Seize all the good things in life
Hi Kathryn, I’m glad you had a good Mother’s Day, you deserve it!!! Take care!!!Seize all the good things in life
Hi Kathryn, my grandson loves ben 10. He has a thing about shoes ( almost a fetish). He likes the light up shoes. The other day he asked if we could go to the store, I figured he wanted a new toy. He wanted a pair of shoes. Well, he didn’t get them, Dad had just bought him a pair 2 weeks ago. He has 2 pairs of sneakers, hiking boots, and new sandles. That cracks me up, he’s only 5!!! Yes, you got to love them. Kids are soo funny!!!! That’s what counts, how fast they can run, the shoes make the difference to them. Take care and have fun with Harry!!Seize all the good things in life

Hi Kathryn, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HARRY! I’m sure he had a wonderful day, and I’m glad you were able to do it for him. I am grateful of all the good things that happen when we are gamble free. I love those jumpy things, they are soo fun!!! Have a great day!!!Seize all the good things in life
HI Bettie, I hope you are feeling better and had a good day at work. Seize all the good things in life
Hi Bettie, thanks for your supportive post. I feel better knowing that I have friends here that care. I need to let it go, and move on. I won’t forget what she said (my Sister), but I need to forgive her, so I can heal. It’s been real hard for me to try to have a relationship with her and I have worked on it for a long time. She has some real hard core issues that she needs to resolve, and not take her stress and insecurities out on others. I will run into her since my Daughter and Grandson share a home with her, and I will be cordial, but I don’t want a relationship with her. It can’t be a one-sided relationship anymore. She isn’t perfect and making rude comments and fun of others is soo wrong. I have taken alot to keep the peace, but no more. Have a good gf day, Bettie!!! Maybe a little kick in the asX wouldn’t hurt either!!!!Seize all the good things in life
Hi Kathryn, glad you had a good time with your friend. My friend (walking) and I laugh everytime we are together. It is nice to have someone to share with and enjoy yourself with. Have a Happy Easter!!! Oh, your new baby sounds soo cute!!!Seize all the good things in life
HI Bettie, hope you have a Happy Easter!!!Seize all the good things in life

Kathryn, have fun at the comedy night. Laughing is good for us. Seize all the good things in life
Hi Bettie, what’s up with the GA group, why couldn’t everyone hang out together at the conference? Uncalled for behavior. Bettie, we are not here to judge what another does in their life, and you don’t have to share everything here, I’m sure 90% of the people here don’t devulge all their secrets. Obviously, it is bothering you. We all have to deal with our demons, and find a way to live with them. The "fwb" has no right to laugh at you for getting help, who is he to judge. I haven’t told everyone in my life about my gambling addiction, for fear of being judged. Why do people have to be soo rude and mean? Life is too short for that crap. I hope you feel better!!!Seize all the good things in life
Hi Bettie, God does have a great plan for all of us, I do believe this. You are worthy of love and you deserve it!!! Stop being soo hard on yourself, we women always seem to do that. I see your good qualities, and you have many of them. You just need to see it also. I don’t know what to say about your job. I always said I took a early retirement to help with my Grandson, but there is more to the story. After working over 25 years for the same company, I knew I would never go into supervision (although that was the way to earn more money). The things they had to do to keep their jobs and advance. Being mean and rude to other employees, and lying. I never knew people could be soo ruthless. I finally had enough one day, and when the company offered early outs (to save money), I jumped on it. Honestly, It was the best thing for me. I wished you could find another position in another company. You don’t need all that stress and ungratefulness. Hope you have something fun planned this weekend. Have a good one!! Seize all the good things in life
