*277*
We had fun. While walking through the casino to get to the restaurant, I stopped at a machine and I promptly won $50. That was dinner plus tip! I was already ahead of the game. That was the last time I won anything..ok I would hit like $1.00 here and there but that was it. Fred on the other hand walked away with a knot of cash. Fucker! Now I know what if feels like to be the loser of the couple. He is going to have play money but he is also going to pay the registration for both cars ($85 a piece).
We had the BBQ Pork noodle bowls. They were extra big this time and we got small pots of spices to put in it. LOVED IT! We didn't even talk when the food hit the table. All you heard was happy noodle slurping. I did take my insulin beforehand and I maintained a good sugar.
We do not do the casino that much anymore because of the economy. We bring a small amount of fun money every 3-4 months. We eat and gamble. If we win, that is good. If we lose, we expected it. Back 10 years ago...I used the slot machines as a crutch because I was dealing with my illness and my mother`s illness and death. Over the years I find I can go with Fred, have a good time, and it does not pull me in. I have other outlets if I feel like life is closing me in. I used to go to GA too. Oooh! I am telling some truths. GA is Gambler`s Anonymous. I was really wrapped up in the slots. I did not lose our house but I made life miserable. Those days are gone...thank goodness.
I have no idea what I am going to do today. It looks like rain. I wanted to get some flower for the porch baskets but I don't know. We will see....
