Well it is day 7, I made it. I am trying to get in the Christmas spirit. I hung some decorations up, but I don't think it will put me in the spirit. I know as each day passes things will get better. I will keep praying. I just wish that my family can get through this, I guess meaning my spouse and me, I just keep pretending around my Mom and everyone else that everything is ok. I should have become an actress, I was always good at pretending. I am going to go watch a movie called Knocked Up, I hope it is funny because I need a good laugh. Take Care Hugs, Mindy

I think we as gamblers become vry good at pretending. One thing though I need to realise is sometimes I do need to fake it until I make it. i feel grey today too, on the verge of tears all the time, but need to keep strong, we both do. Wishing you blessings and love and enjoy th spirit of Christmas...Suzi
Hope you enjoy the movie. No to well what you mean by pretending done that many of times. You are doing very well keep up the good work. Take care Hugs Nicky
Day 7 will turn into day 8 and 9, 10 etc. then you will not be pretending anymore -- hang in there - lol
Before you know it, it will be day 30! Time flies by so quickly, just keep really busy. Stay Strong and don\'t let stress guide you to gambling! Don\'t give in to those horrible urges!
Hugs,

Day 7! That\'s wonderful! Things will get better and you will be happy again. Hang in there. Each day that you resist is one day closer to happiness. Peace and Love. Patty
