I think we both spent about $20 on the slots, and decided that was enough and went home. I am just really not into that at all, and dh isn't either. I can think of a lot of other things I would rather spend money on. Randy does play poker on occasion when we get together with my family, but again it's maybe $15 max. We have purchased lottery tickets on a handful of occasions, but we rarely think of it, and when we do, I can still think of a lot of other things I would rather do with our money. "I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth." -Psalm 57:9-11.

I have learned to have lots of fun in LV without gambling. i often have hours to kill by myself, while everyone else gambles. Last time I sat at an oxygen bar at the Venetian. I've gotten massages, gone shopping, hung out at a bar at the Bellagio, hiked Red Rock State Park, eaten BBQ at The Salt Lick, taken lots of long walks outside the casinos, gone to shows, etc. I am the only one in my family that doesn't like gambling, so I've learned to be resourceful.

Closest to real gamblin was to play cards for change pots w family growing up lol.... That was when life w my folks was less complex.... Kinda miss those days Phil 4:8 think on those things that are true,honest,just,pure,lovely and of good report,if there be any virtue any praise, think on these things Jesus loves the little children !!! HES GOT THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD IN HIS HANDS !!! |
