(((Lizbeth))
I felt as if somebody punched me in the gut when I read your post .
I could have been me making that post tonight (but I haven’t got 500 only 200)
It almost was me, actually.
I had a visit from my son and his GF today They have to be collected and driven back to the city. My husband collected them this morning. She turned up her nose at the food I prepared for lunch. This evening refused to eat anything. Kept “eyeing”my son and muttering under her breath. I feel very sorry for her. She didn’t have an easy life but she contradicted everything I said and tried to come between me and my son . It sounds weird I can’t go into details but any mother will know what I mean He seemed very stressed. Then, all of a sudden he said can we go now…..Long story short, I decided “what the hell, I’m going to drop into the casino for an hour after I drop them off” Then I decided to let my husband drive them . I stayed at home. He is just back now. I’m annoyed with him too. He just keeps his mouth shut and leaves the talking to me when she is here.
GAMBLING WON’T SOLVE ANY OF OUR PROBLEMS, Lizbeth.
I hope you can recover from the financial loss. I know if I lost money tonight it would have set me back big time. I’m on a tight budget. The emotional/physical recovery would take even longer.
Will you tell any of your family that you gambled?
If I gambled and lost I certainly would be looking for a bail out. I’m up to my neck in loan repayments.
Well done on posting.
I think I would have closed my thread and disappeared . Can’t take any more.
