LESS Alcohol ~ FEBRUARY 2025 ~ One Day at A Time

@chicbuc Good luck at the casino! I played last Wednesday and won $300. But like an idiot, I went back the next day and lost what I had won the the day before and then some. I know better that when I win that I should stay away for a day or two. Oh, well!

I'm still not AF. I'm hoping for tomorrow. I'm really getting tired of it. I got a few things accomplished yesterday. But it makes everything more difficult when you're drinking!

The thing that I need to work on is outside and it's raining pretty good today. So I probably won't be able to work on it today. I have a drip supplying two birdbaths that comes on four times a day to keep the baths full and circulating. But I didn't protect it during a very cold snap we had. So I have to replace the manifold, timer, etc. Fortunately, I have everything I need. Since the freeze, I bought a real cool cover for it. It's made for backflow devices. But it works perfect for my remote faucet. And, in the future, I'll turn the water off to that faucet when we're expecting very cold temps. It's not normal to get lows much lower than freezing here. But this year was different. In a few days, the weather is supposed to start getting back to normal (60's). And, I can't wait until March 9th!

My February stats are bad. But not much worse than last month. I could even beat last month's stats if I get back on board tomorrow.

February:
AF - 4
A - 19 ☹️ Yikes!

@NonnieDoiron Who said I wasn't broke *LOL* I lived in CA for most of my life. But I had to go out of my way to go to a casino. My mom used to go all the time. They have shuttles that will pick you up. I wasn't majorly into gambling at the time.

I had many other interests back then. I remember one Saturday, though. My friend & I were sitting at my kitchen table asking each other what we wanted to do that day. You know how it is...What do you want to do? I don't know. What do you want to do? So we decided to go to Vegas. We actually stopped at State Line and gambled for a few hours and came home. It was a nice day.

Here in OR, the machines are just about anyplace that food and alcohol are served (that's the requirement to get the machines). They are the same machines you would find in Vegas, Reno, or the other casinos. But the Oregon lottery owns them. I wish they weren't here. It's just too easy!

Have a good night everyone!
