Morning all!
How weird? I woke up this morning and thought do I feel rough? Have I got a headache?
Why do I think this? I only drank squash last night!
Next thought? Oh shall I buy some wine for tonight? Why do I think this a 7.45am?
Oh dear that seems a bit early to me to be thinking about having a drink. Well I won't give in and I will stay AF today and tonightfinal unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -
I sometimes feel like this and find myself thinking about beer when shopping first thing.
I actually walked down the beer aisle yesterday to test my resolve. The voices were trying to lure me onto the rocks but my course was steady
Well done on feeling positive for tonight Fuas :T

Morning all
I'm not going to hit my target but did have a mini success as I bought a bottle of wine Thursday, only drank half then drank the rest last night plus went to Tesco after work & didn't buy more, so am still kinda pleased with myself.

Morning everyone.
Still AF, despite a few days of having loads of relatives down to stay. I've now got used to going into my local and just having soft drinks (but that was really tough - I had to stay in the beer garden the first couple of times and give others the cash to go to the bar, but I eventually plucked up the courage and had to stop the barman automatically pulling a guinness when he saw me.)
Anyway we're all off down to Devon now til midweek, so have a good 'un all of you, and keep with it.Proud to be dealing with my debtsDMP Mutual Support Thread member 337
