Donna, I thought I would pop in here and congratulate you on being gamble free today. I used to work nights and know how slow and boring it can be at times. Keep up the good work! Your friend, Michele

Re: I MADE IT TODAY
Hi Donna, well done for not gambling today, that's great.
You say friday is your danger day because you get paid, try to leave the money in the house and only carry small amounts around with you. That will take away some of the temptation. That was how I managed to get into recovery and thankfully, I'm 22 months gamble free now. Focus on spending some money on yourself on friday, even if it's only a small item, you will feel good about not giving your money to these cards and will also have something to show for your money. I wish you well.
Take care and stay strong luv Sandy xx

Re: I MADE IT TODAY
Maybe try and find a way to tie your money up and make yourself accountable. that way pay day just becomes another day.
