Morning Kathryn
I was glad to read your post and you are now content again.  Sounds lovely watching your son fall asleep and smelling the ocean, you live near the sea, how beautiful.  I would sit and look at it all the time. i love watching the waves.  Especially when it is overcast.  I fry in the sun.  We are lucky to have here, Harry unjumbling things for you, it is comforting knowing we have them there isnt it!  Ive been thinking about our chat and the self exclusion thing, i so wish they did that here.  Here there are so many little places absolutely everywhere.  I wish there was a one step self exclusion that covered the whole of Oz. 
Anyway glad to hear you are feeling good now and i have my morning cuppa with you, i think we may be posting round the same time today.  Im not starting my healthy plan till Jan 1, oh wow, i just realized how far away that is, yikes. Better get some eating in while i can hehe.

Hey Kathryn
I laughed at the full moon thing.  I am probably one of those people that go off on a full moon.  Well emotionally i do, i seem sensitive to the moon, i usually get a bit weepy around that time or sentimental its a funny thing.  But i guess we are made up with a large percentage water and the moon effects the tides so also the little tides in us i guess.  Im a bit of an emotional one a marshmallow at times, sometimes i feel as though i have no bones im just all mush.  Other times i think i am stronger.  hehe.  Have a good day.  Sounds like you are busy already!

Hi Kathryn
What a short chat in group but am glad i got there for a minute or two.  Will try to get there earlier next time.  Was good to say hi even for a minute.  It is hard when people make comments, i know that a lot of people dont understand.  I guess they never will, i think back to before i gambled and i thought how on earth could people get hooked on playing a machine, little did i know i was to become one of those people.  I guess its like any addiction, its hard to understand unless youve travelled that path.  But it hurts too i know when people judge or say things.  I hope it settles for you and whoever is making the comments i hope they stop.  Maybe they are a gambler themselves you never know!!  Anyway i hope all improves for you.  Laughed at the shower thing and the pajama wearing for 3 days, that would be so funny!  Catch you again soon you little ray of light

Hi Kathryn
Sounds like you had a fabulous chrissy.  How exciting sounds like a big whirlwind of happiness.  We had a quiet chrissy but really enjoyed it.  We are heading off for movies today for boxing day.  Having a  great time not gambling, the emotions are settling a bit.  All the best for your boxing day

Hi Kathryn
Was great to see you on group, i have been hanging out to get there lately.  I hope to catch more of them.  I didnt sleep last night so still posted more.  Having big trouble with my emotions but i know it will be ok.  I will get through.  I am going to say a prayer for me today, to help me.  Im still excited and happy though that i have not gambled.  Things just coming to the surface i guess.  What would i do without this site????
Anyway have a fantastic christmas with your family all the best

Morning Kathryn
Im up early with my cuppa before my boy wakes up.  This is my favourite time to post and get these words fresh in my mind for the day to help me through the urges.  Im still having them but have been pretty much really really working at this recovery non stop.  I have posted a zillion times i feel in the last few days.  One day i hope to catch you online at the same time seeing as we are in the same time zone.  Anyway just saying hi again and my admiration is always with you for your strength in this recovery process.  Your posts are always such a pleasure to read.  I hope you have a good rest and break over these holidays with your family.

Hi Larry
Thank you for your post.  I am posting like mad these days to keep me afloat but nonetheless i am floating.  Away from that destructive gambling demon.  Your posts make me think and are really inspirational.  You have done marvellously well on your 4 months i can see your progress too.  Going from slips to a steady day by day flow of life.  Im joining in too, i dont want any slips (i understand they can happen) but i dont want any.  On with the flow Larry thank you for being there
