Journal Entry for February 4, 2008 Mood
Monday, February 4, 2008

Well on Saturday it was nine months without a gamble! wow!! i never thought i would be able to achive that sort of time up.

      I do feel there is something missing in my life,is it my own family? is it a partner? or a new job? im not sure,one thing i do know is that i have sold myself sort in all sorts of ways and i will not be doing that again.

     My non drinking is not going well,saturdays after cricket i like a drink,i have been trying to not do it but i guess i feel relaxed having a drink with my friends,im not an alcoholic but i have been trying not to drink as im trying to lose weight.

      Some people at cricket can be very negitive,i have been being picked on at times,i have been having a really good season but my last few games have not been great,i put it down to the tall poppy syndrome and i have to get on with things and look at all the positive things that are happening in my life.

         I going to Melbourne for 11 days in March,if i was gambling there is no way id be doing this.

      KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE.

    HOw cool is that - you are doing things you have wanted to and the reason is you are saving money and living life. I am proud of you.
    3 months GF myself and it is a good feeling. I am working towards the 6 month goal too but still taking things one step at a time, it's the only way.
    Hugs to you today. Suzi
