    I often think of you , Sunny and wondered what became of you!
    Belated Happy Birthday!
    I have been “unfaithful” to my recovery program many times but all any of us can do is start again.
    When there is big money at stake, it is CRUCIAL that you tie it up in some form, Sunny because it will vanish otherwise and the after effect will leave you devastated . Gambling is not worth that risk Sunny so draw the line now and do not even dream of dipping into that money for your house. It would be tantamount to stealing . I don’t say this as a judgement but I know how much it means to you to get a nice home for your boys to grow up in. Don’t allow gambling to steal that from them. you will regret it forever.
    Well done on your very long break from gambling and or having the courage to come back and share with us.
    You are still one of GT’s idols, despite your “blip!”
    Keep posting!

    Cat, I LOVE red shoes too!
    Today, I saw 3 fabulous pairs in a shoe shop and 3 pairs of red ankle boots. All heel sizes available.All different tones. Some patent. Some matte. Some a winter /autum red and some for casual wear…
    the only think I’m lacking is MONEY!
    I wonder why?

    Carole, thank you so much for taking an interest in my case. I am limited to what I can write on a public forum, but I will e mail the details as soon as I get a chance to draw breath. The hearing is on Friday 13th. Prayers needed please!
    Like you, I am inclined to challenge issues…Believe me , this one cannot be overlooked . My professional reputation is at stake. If I ignore it, it will affect both my conscience and my health…
    Im following your story too but need to focus on this issue first Sounds selfish but I know you understand. Im trying to switch back from nights to days. My time clock is haywire and it’s wrecking my sleep and health.
    ODAAT!

    Well said, Debbie!
    Gambling deprives us of so many things…
    We cannot turn back the clock, but we can rewind it!
    Sounds like your new life has been worth all the effort. One day at a time! I am so happy for you!

    "Cleansing" sounds like a wonderful idea, Sherry. I need it in more ways than one, but if you read my comments on Libbie’s thread, you might see I’m not a suitable candidate for "punishment!"…I think I have self destructed often enough, but maybe I will see the positive aspects and try it out sometime when I can get time off work ( I don’t think it would fit in with my long hours)and from the sound of it, you would need to be very near a "public convenience" at all *****!!!!

    Hope your trip turns out better than you anticipate, Libbie!
    When I read about that "Cleanse" , I thought, " I could do that!" I was wondering if it s before, after or during meals, but when I googled it and found out it’s "Instead of!", I quickly changed my mind. Planning on eating a few bars of chocolate now, to further clog my arteries! I must be in a self destruct ****!!
    Safe journey!
