OH just put a couple of bottles of cider in the freezer ready for the spurs match which made me want to punch him...

:rotfl: :rotfl: This made me laugh out loud, although not really funny from your point of view!

Do you think it is possible to be AF, on a diet and dealing with debt all at the same time?? Is that what's known as impossible? Sorry, just me thinking out loud.

Have a good evening & try not to kill OH

I'm back!!

In the end OH rang and said he didn't need picking up as he needed to get a last bus home (he's a bus inspector) :eek:

But I went to Mr T's and bought a big box of jam tarts just for me and a couple of their finest rhubarb and clotted cream yoghurts that were reduced, I'm gonna be the size of a bus soon!!

Just took the orange squash out of the freezer that's been in there for a few hours, it's nice and cold and got bit of ice in it. OH just put a couple of bottles of cider in the freezer ready for the spurs match which made me want to punch him...but luckily I don't drink cider that much so I'll stick to the squash then a mug of decaf later (Fay, how you like that coffee??)

Speak to you all later.

HiyA - sorry if this is a bit light hearted and silly -
coffee is ace ta - sorry should have said I rrelaly like it- typical of OH eh - lol :rotfl:sorry i know I should n't laugh. Hope you manage to scoff all the squash etc x

DD has pal here - so after tea one of the dogs licked a plate full of gravey - dont usually but it seemed like such a waste. ...........he he he - picked the plate up infront of dd pal and then put in in the cupboard :eek: she looked horrified so I said sorry kara didnt you know we do that (she went green she's been coming to our house since she was 5 (she's 12 now) - we all held it together for about a billisecond and then fell about laughing:rotfl:

(took it out and put it in dishwasher - was just classic watching the colour drain from her poor wee face as we nearly wet ourselves!!!!)




Ohhh I am horrible

Hope you are all good xx

I've been in the woods (where there's no web connection)
I've missed every one of you on this thread
and I've so much to catch up on, it fills me with dread

I hope we're all well and resisted the ale
For me? Well I have a sorry tale.....
My AF days have been very few
Since last I came here to see all of you

But never despair, I'm back on the wagon!
Before you all start with the moaning and naggin'
But thank you to Budgie and Molly and others
I've never had so many sisters and brothers

So off I go to catch up on the posts
and tales of spilled pepper and burnt Sunday roasts
And some eating mint feasts, while others go cold turkey
So ta ta for now, from your dear Lurky

Dear Lurks
Says it all really, we missed you mate and so glad you are back. :T
You so lift the mood I guess we'd say you are some cool dude :cool:

Evening all

Not been on here yet today as not been a good day. Pills doctor has given me have made me really nauseous and quite poorly. Apparently they'll do it for a week or two. Fantastic.

So I went down my mums for the day and she entertained little one bless her.

Am just about managing to stomach some full sugar coke tonight. May even brave a bit of toast later...get me!

Good thing....alcohol is the furthest thing from my mind. Am afraid though Fay that have yet to get to the post office with Allen Carr. Will post it as soon as I can. By the way, fantastic trick to play on your friends daughter...shall have to remember that one!

Jo1972 resist the urge to kill the OH...they do have their uses sometimes!;)

hello
thought i would cave tonight after tea was going to go and get some wine been a stressy day - but kept telling myself i was so tired if i could just wait a wee bit. And classically told myself - oh yeah (I think JO said it once or MP or E) there's no real excuse - it WONT help and its not a special day even if that puddle on the way home seemed a bit scary (ignore me I know what I mean)

Ha - fell asleep on sofa until now so now no shops open woo hoo think am now on [STRIKE]AF15[/STRIKE] WB (not sure) (just checked my signature which I updated yesterday - so I must be on AFD 16 now - :D:D I keep losing count - not enough fingers you see - Miss P ta for the parcel at some point.

Hands all numb and tingly still its horrible and sore - it woke me up!! - just had a light bulb moment i have some water reducing tabs in bathroom - worth a go even to see if it releives it a bit??

hugs to all.

Jo also beginning to think its an all or nothing thing.....................baby baby steps.

Yaaawnnn, evenings are sooooo loooong when you're sober!

On the upside I watched the 2nd corrie, only usually watch the first one, then Enders and then usually drank too much to be bothered with 2nd corrie so that's good

I have also got all my stuff together for tomorrow (ie bag for childminder with kids clothes, uniforms, school bags, shoes etc etc). My clothes are laid out ready to jump into Wallace and Gromit stylee and I'm now on the decaf waiting for bedtime, might read the paper first, really odd sitting here after 10pm and not in the slightest bit tired!!

OH has finished watching spurs (yay to spurs!!) and now watching the academy awards, I really mustn't get into it otherwise I shall be up all night!

Hope you're all okay, echo'ing BB here - Eselt, you okay?

BHB, how was work today, find anything grusome in the u-bends?? Did getting back to a routine help you?

Speak to you all tomorrow, thanks for all your support

I am new to this thread.

I just popped in to say that I stopped drinking alcohol on 21 Dec 1999 and have not drunk any since.
