Thanks conejo...hope you stick around and share with us. I'll check out the site you mentioned.

Thought alot today about Nutz' words -
And yeap.. schduling our lives around it.
Got me thinking about how I've been scheduling my life around not gambling living in fear which IS letting gambling control me. So today I went to pick up a few groceries. Yeah...I went shopping in the middle of the week (lol). Had 20 dollars left and my mind started - turn this 20 into more, c'mon just one more time - you could make it 100 dollars and have spending money til payday.

Not sure what others thought of me outside the store when I said out loud...Yeah right!

Got in a cab home, had something to eat and slept til now. I wasn't afraid - just annoyed with the thoughts...with the mind of a gambler. Emotional right now...sorry I didn't realize what I had til it was gone - not the money - the good life I had before.

I got a long way to go and I accept that - I'm not alone. Gonna do some reading now. Thanks for listening...God bless.
