Good evening my dearest friends!  I wanted to check in and let you know that I’m doing well.  I’ve been thinking about my slip and trying to think what may have triggered it.  The only answer I can come up with is, nothing, nothing triggered it, it just happened.  I’ve decided not to dwell on it any longer and move on.  I will have to suffer the out come for a month or so financially, but I will deal with that as it comes.   At least it’s nothing like when I was gambling full time!   That was thousands of dollars, instead of a couple of hundred.

Things at my day job have been nuts.  We are working on a computer project and it’s about to drive us nuts!  We send in what they want, and then we get it back saying this isn’t right… give me a break!  Oh well, at least I have a job.   Things at the store have been sort of crazy too.  On Saturday night when I get there, my manager and another employee were pushing in a shopping cart full of groceries.  I guess someone had pushed the cart around the store and filled some re-useable shopping bags with almost $350.00 worth of stuff and then walked out of the store.  My manager confronted them and got the groceries back.  They got the plate number of the car and the law is hunting them down.  Then we had a couple of people in the store writing checks for ‘re-loadable” gift cards.  They suspect that they will be bad checks.  The “front-end coordinator over road one of the checks even when there was a warning that they have wrote too many checks for the week.  And I was the cashier… Well, I’ve talked with my manager and I will be in the clear if it comes back.  It will be his fault.  It never ceases to amaze me what people will do.  Heck, I never stooped that low even at my lowest gambling.

My sweetie seems to be improving a little.  But right now, a little is wonderful!  He is still in pain but recently he has been able to work through the pain.  I hope it continues!  I hope he does well next week because he will be working alone since I will be out of town.  I’ve been trying to get things ready for my trip.  I can’t wait!  Even though it will be long hours, I so need this break for my everyday life.

Today was a difficult day.  Today would have been my 18th wedding anniversary.  I kept myself busy cleaning house.  I did all the regular cleaning and finally started the computer room.  I can now see the top of my computer desk.  I also went to the store and went for a walk.  I’m trying to get back in to walking.  I have already had my bath and now it’s time for the couch and watch my Steelers! 

I’ll close for now, but not before I thank you all once more for being there when I needed some encouragement and support.  I am truly blessed to have you all as my friends and family!

Peace and Love.
