Good going ruby 18 months / a year and a half .

The inflation effect has happened now for me , when people tell me the price of alcohol i go

How did i ever afford it ? Truth was i lived a pay cheque to pay cheque existence .

I bought the spirit of sobriety to my finances only after i stopped gambling maybe 18 months into sobriety from drink.

The last 24 months has been so very much more relaxed and less pressured due to the finances easing the most i gamble these days are four lottery tickets a week = £8 and sometimes i forget to do that .

A lot of my gambling was powered by me wanting my life to somehow be other than it was , by quitting the struggle and accepting it just as it was today , finding a life to enjoy right in front of my eyes , such motivations have unwound themselves and have dropped by the by .

Sunday morning coffee i hope everyone made it through , if not you get another go today .

Bestwishes, m
