Been good today so thats one for me please Budget Babe. Had a really really naughty weekend so today was not a problem to abstain:rolleyes: Might go for the pamper idea tomorrow - my nails are very nasty at the moment so I feel a manicure is in order. I like this plan of doing something special for yourself on the nights you dont have a drink.0

Evening all:j
LD reporting for duty BB, sir. One more delicious, delectable, desirable [STRIKE]Lillibet dripping[/STRIKE] AF free day please:D
Have spent the evening de-cluttering my office bookshelf - why I keep all this tut I don't know. Looks an awful lot better now though and it has kept me from opening a bottle (not that I've got any in the house anyway:rotfl:)
Hope you have all had a good day. Will catch up in the morning. Am off to bed with a cup of camomile and honey tea.
love n'stuff
