Just why???

Well that’s what you must do then lovely. Time is indeed so so precious and it must be heart wrenching to know you don’t have long with your dad love. You can have an amazing time and hopefully stay in control. Don’t put all you have done to one side. You are supermum and a lovely person. I respect your honesty so much. When is the trip?

Thanks Tracy, it won’t be til may as he’s got to fit it around chemo so hopefully by then I’ll be a lot stronger. I told my mum about being gf (she couldn’t believe it) and she asked if I could think of anything else that would make him happier than Vegas and we both said no and laughed at such a ridiculous question:)). She says she’ll support me 100% whatever I do and that’s she’s proud of me for getting this far. Aww good old mum:) plus I’ll still have the mop club to keep me on the straight and narrow!

Course you will - mop club is always here and by May you will have racked up loads of gf days. Keep doing what you’re doing and your mum sounds great 🙂 statement day soooon :))) mop time!

Pay day Thursday statement Friday. Ooh the excitement!! I’m not even joking:))). Gonna really splash out and get some new socks too:)

Hi SoSad, sorry to hear about your Dad, what a tough decision for you! Does he know you’re GF, or is it not worth the conversation? As you say you will be so much stronger by May, that you may have a 'what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas' mentality and so be much stronger when you come back! And you'll have this diary!

Looking forward to statement day too.... mine will be Tuesday! Thanks all for continuing support xx

lil you’ll get your statement before me as mine is a week Thursday, you’ve got to share it on here with us all so we can all feel good. And no my dad doesn’t know I’m gf, he’s got enough on his plate without worrying about me. He’d probably think it means gluten free:). Roll on Tuesday lil!

What a dilemma for you sosad , I’m so sorry about your dad. I lost my mom to cancer so I know how precious time with them is. My mom also loved the casinos. In May you will have a lot more gf days. Maybe you could tell your dad you would rather see a couple of shows instead of gambling. There’s a lot to do in Vegas besides gambling. Your dad can gamble and you can take a day trip somewhere.

We will be here to give you the support while your there to stay gf.

Thanks carol. Anyway let’s get back to the here and now, 7 more little days til I get the now famous mop:)) Who’d a thunked we’d all get this far? All racing to get our treats, bit like wacky races! (If you’re younger than 40 you’ll have no idea what I’m on about!) and I’m more of a mutley than lady Penelope:)))

Think carols idea is good sosad, as ultimately you wanna be gf forever and you will be 5 months gf by trip time ! Wow. Can’t wait to hear about people’s treats- roll on the air fresheners!

Tough day today, a few demands for money making me worry, focusing on how much better I’ll be in a few months time, with everything at least up to date... Looking forward to seeing your mop! Have found my face mask... x

Keep focused lil and you’ll get there, we’ve all got bad days to deal with but just think how good we’ll feel if we keep this up. Carol is dead right Tracy I don’t have to gamble while I’m there and hopefully by then I won’t even want to. Can’t believe it’s 24 days today, it’s not been easy by any means but it’s definetly getting easier each day. Does everyone feel like that or is it just me? Brought a new dog toy today, he doesn’t need anymore he has hundreds but I did it just because I can. Kept me smiling all day. He didn’t even like it !:)))

Hope you’re ok lil- just keep going hun and you will be so much better off in a few months. Well done for all your achievements so far. Sosad- it certainly does feel easier every day and as the days mount it’s pretty special. 24 days for you?! o*g that’s amazing- it’s almost a month lovely. That dog is gonna be so spoilt with all the spare money you wil have 🙂 it’s lovely to hear

I do feel it’s getting easier to be gf. Although that call to the casinos got in my head yesterday. And to be honest it’s still there. I was making plane reservations for my husband and daughter to visit family. Which leaves me home alone with the dogs. That used to mean freedom to go to the casino. So I realized that I can’t get over confident. I’m holding on to my days gf and am looking forward to my bank statements.

Keep going carol you’re doing fab. Think of the fat cat slimy sleazy casino owner who you’re giving your hard earned money to and keep it in your pocket instead where it will make you happier and happier every single day. And of course the massage!!:)

Carol was it you with the massage? I can’t remember who had what except for mrs Tracy airwick and I only remember that one cos I’m jealous and I want them!!:))) Next time airwick they are mine all mine:)
