      I don’t know why I did not start an August thread.  It may have been that I did not see many people using it, but if it can help one person not gamble for a day then it is worth it.  I have not gambled in August and do not plan on gambling today.  We all deserve a "normal life" which can mean different things to different people.  Wishing everyone a gamble free day!!!One day at a time my sweet lord…

      Good morning,
      There are many ways for each of us to use the different threads, the ways, although they may not be obvious, are as different as is our "normal lives".  So Cat, do not think that your efforts are in vain, myself for one find this monthly pledge to be one that holds daily ones together. A page in a special calendar that shows progress, hope, and desire instead of just listing the days.
      August holds a special significance to me and I will not desecrate that by allowing my addiction to regain control.
      God’s speed. Stay strong. Keep progressing.
      Larry
      Thanks to my Higher Power, My 3G’s – God, GA, and GT,  "Day Two Is Another Day Behind" and with the help from all I hope to continue to remain gambling free.– 8/5/2013 2:17:23 PM: post edited by paul315.

      August has been good for me too.  Lots of company and no time to think about gambling.  It’s lots easier when gambling isn’t an option.  That’s what I love about the work week.

      Yes R2C, thank God that I did not gamble yesterday and do no plan on gambling today.  We are at the half way point for August, but we get through the month or the week by taking it one day at a time. One day at a time my sweet lord…

      Another weekend to get through.  Time to get the defenses up and get through it without gambling.  I will not gamble this weekend…that’s my word and my word is gospel once again.

      WTG Vera on the gamble free time in August.  Am I right in saying that is progress for you?  We are blessed to have a brand new day and a brand new month on September 1. One day at a time my sweet lord…
