For those of you that don't know, I usually like to play online during holiday weekends. I don't know why, but I love to put my feet up, plop my cat into my lap, open up a brew and have a go at the slots.... or video poker.
But you know what? I haven't played online in months, and rather than load my card and blow $50 in 5 - 10 minutes online, when I get off work I'm going to the store and spend that 50 bucks on food and supplies for our local animal shelter. This time of year they get a bazillion kittens (yes, I want them all, but don't have the time to raise the babies properly) and I know they need kitten chow and puppy food and cleaning supplies.
Then, after I get home, I'll pet my old cat and tell her how fortunate she is (even though she thinks I'm the one who should be grateful because she lets me feed her and live in her house), eat a bite, then take to the yard for some weeding. By the time I get back into the house I'll be so tired I won't think about anything but a nice cool shower, and sitting in my recliner and watch the Braves try to remember how to play baseball.
Tomorrow morning will be more yardwork, then an afternoon of chilling and watching more baseball. (Thank heavens I like baseball 'cause there's nothing else on TV for me these days.) Sunday morning, if not yardwork (it's supposed to rain), it will be housework. Heck, I don't have time to gamble. LOL
Just thought I'd share for those who wonder what to do with your time and money when you decide to cut back on gambling....
