I\'m back
Hello Everyone, I hadn't realized I was away for so long, I had a rough couple months not gambling though, I have not gambled since at least August, I was diagnosed with Diabetes in July and then I had to have surgery to have a cyst removed and that was about a one month recovery in October, and my stepson was back and my husband never switched his shift, and then in December him and his friend decided to steal my husbands car, so he is not here again living at the house, and I was still going to school, now I have decided to take a short break from school, to clear my head, to much stuff has been going on and I lost about 90 pounds, but that is a good thing, I never thought I would ever be a size, now I am enjoying life and trying to work through all the rough stuff. I really miss everyone around here. I am going to try to read some journals and talk to some of my old friends who I truly miss. I am ok though and gamble free, not so much smoke free but I am still working on that. I will check on some of you tonight. Talk to you all soon, Mindy

Welcome back!!! I\'m sorry to hear things have been so rough but I\'m thrilled that you are still gamble free!! I hope you have got your health stablized now. Peace and Love. Patty
Right on!
Welcome back....we have missed you also. Good to see that you are gf, and the smoking will come around, too. It is sooo tough, I\'ve been there many times. Sometimes a break is what you need. Wow, 90 pounds? That\'s either a lot of stress, or a great deal of self-control. Either way, it\'s great to hear from you. Keep in touch.
Hi, glad to see you back. You have had some rough times but I am so proud of you for staying GF through it all. You sound great!! Awesome job on the weight loss- give us your secret. LOL.
Mindy,
Welcome back and thanks for the hug. Sorry things are little crazy for you lately, but happy you have remained gf thru it all. WTG on the 90 lbs., how did you loose it??? I need to quit the ciggies too!

Wow you are one strong person, you have survived though all this turmoil and still remained gamble-free. That is amazing. Sorry to hear about your diabetes, hope you are coping okay. Keep fighting strong and achieving your goals. I am sure you can kick the smoking habit too.
Mindy it is good to see you back - your sure have had a roller coaster of events happen and 90 pounds - O my goodness - go YOU!
I am sorry to hear that things are not good with your srep son and perhaps a break from school is just the thing for now.
Hugs and love to you
