Why did I go to the casino? Trying to find a little of my past. Hey it doesn’t work. The past is gone and so is the time I had with my husband. The casino is an hour away and I have no desire to drive that far to throw money away. I am now retired and am on a set monthly income. This has been hard for me to learn how to spend only what is coming in. But I am determined to live on that and not touch my nest egg especially for gambling. The main thing I have learned is that if you stay away from gambling the urges do leave and you don’t even miss it. You want nothing more to do with something that made you feel so bad about yourself . You find other ways to fill that void. I did and will continue to do so and so can you.
