- Hot summer days,,,, I would run to the casino, cold winter nights I would run to the casino, times during the holidays, when my budget was tight for the holidays, and I would stay for days, reckless and alone, when I had a family at home that loved...
- I'm still here :) I haven't had a chance to post, but I do come on and read. So odd, when I read some of the newer posts, they remind me so much of myself when I first started to blog on this site. I never really understand the amount of work it...
- Doing the day, in San Diego, and its around 104 degrees today. Each day I find myself learning more about who I am, and I'm not talking about taking the surveys on Facebook :) I am learning to walk through pain, or disappointment, without running to...
- I had to share the comment in my subject line. Its so what I needed to read tonight. Coming to this site, is always such a huge ray of sunlight for me. On day 35, and although its been tough financially, I'm doing much better emotionally. Today as...
- Today is day 30 for me. Starting to feel better, but its really been a slow emotional crawl back for me this time. That combined with my job, and the company basically closing its doors, its been difficult. But, I have pulled my bootstraps up and...
- Three day weekend, and I'm having a great time, doing nothing, but cleaning, watching re-runs of criminal minds, playing with my dogs, and oh yeah, NOT gambling. 27 days in recovery, and for some reason, this time, its going by super slow, although...
- 21 days into my recovery. I received a call this weekend, Saturday, from Harrah's Casino, apparently when I signed myself out for life, a couple of weeks ago, they forgot to take a copy of my drivers license, although I am banned, they requested I...
- 19 days in my recovery, and tonight I am feeling good. I came home with the intention of doing my housework, and I did, but my phone was exploding with work as well, so I was negotiating deals, and cleaning at the same time. I started to thing...
- 18 days into my new recovery, and today I actually had energy, I was working and I could feel the blood starting to circulate again in my heart,,,, first time in a few weeks I had the "pep" back in my step. I can honestly tell anyone who is...
- So, the last few days I have been in a funk, depressed, and feeling it. This morning, I was working with a buyer on a listing I have, whereby I am listing if for free, its my boss and his home, so I didn't charge a commission. The buyer is going...
- My recovery reminds me of when I took my real estate brokers exam. I remember taking it the 1st time, I didn't pass it, and I thought, OMG, this test is a test to be respected, it was so hard. The last time I took it, I buckled down and studied my...
- Last night I was on the GA call, and I listened, the therapy on that call is amazing. I usually hang up feeling like I heard something that triggered a thought for me. 10 days into my new recovery, and although I am feeling stronger, I'm still...
- Day 8 in my recovery. I'm doing better, not great, but better. I'm able to find a reason to smile, and I've been working around my house, getting my energy back and motivated to move around, rather than sulk around. Its funny, how I was thinking...
- One week into my recovery, I self excluded yesterday from two of the main casinos I would go to, and although I have no urge, when I went into the last casino, to self exclude yesterday, I got very emotional, on the inside, I didn't want the...
- A week ago today, I drove to the casino and stayed out for two days. Day 5 in recovery, today I went with my daughter and self excluded from the two casinos that I would go to, and closest ones to me, I did a life time ban. It was interesting, the...
