Many thanks Dave, Scotty & Debsy. I appreciate your kindness & encouragement.

 

Hello Diary.

Tomorrow is "Move Day."

My head is spinning but nearly  finished packing. The removal van is coming in the morning.

Been here 26 years so it all seems a bit strange.

 

Aum ?

That must have been very upsetting Don to relapse after 312 days. My heart really goes out to you because I know how awful it feels and how easily it can happen.

Please keep trying.

Aum ?

Thank you Scotty. I have moved a mile away to a pleasant little retirement flat by the river.

None of this would have been possible had I not stopped gambling a year ago.

Being gamble-free means I can enjoy my retirement. Life will have more meaning. 

 

Aum ?

Thank you for visiting my diary Lou, Scotty & Steven. Your support is greatly appreciated. 

The first week in my new home has been good. Needs a splash of paint so thinking about colours. Might just do the whole flat in magnolia with white skirting boards. Walls are sound and will be easy to paint & the internal doors are wood effect and look good so will keep them as they are. 

No desire to gamble which is a great relief. 

 

Aum ?

Contented now and smiling

Relaxed in my new flat

Adventures are awaiting

And here is where its at

 

Had a chat with myself

For two is better than one

Life looks good - we both agreed

Now gambling days are gone

 

Know not what the future holds

What will be will be

My happy heart is singing

For I am gamble-free 

 

Aum ?
