  • Good morning all.

    Still feeling a bit gutted about the weekend although everyone has said they have forgiven me as long as i don't do it again, i can't help but feel there is still some fallout yet to come from it all though.

    Anyway, on a positive note.....1 AFD for me so far please.

    Well, after a weekend of "some" excess, last night was alcohol free.
    Aiming for the same tonight, though with curry on the menu, this may be more of a challenge.

  • Hi all,

    YM please put me down for my first AFD of September, so that's 1/30 for me! :j

    GP - OMG, I am in awe of your bicycling (is that a word??) prowess. I can barely cycle round the block and my a*se starts to ache. You must have buns of steel!! :rolleyes: I must try harder on the bike, but it hurts.

    I think my backside is much too large for the seat, so that doesn't help - it's like cycling on a razor blade........... anyhoooo, that's too much information for most of you, I'm sure, so I'll shut up now :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Am on track for another AFD today. I have a "new" AA meeting to go to tonight. It's a step meeting, which I believe means that we are studying the AA 12 step recovery program. I've no idea what that actually entails, but I'm not going to find out sitting at home, so I thought I'd give it a try tonight.

    Hugs and love to you all on this fine Wednesday. Erm, it's not really fine, it's raining, but you get what I mean!

    Remember that it isn't Tuesday, there has been a Bank Holiday (it feels like a Tuesday to me). :p

  • Um slides in - admits not AF last night (2 small cans wine - yup specially purchased at 9.30 - if I had left it half an hour I would have had no opportunity) - slides out - need to try harder - YM those eyes gave me nightmares last night. Rubbish nights sleep feeling a bit bleurgh today - however - Onwards to the naughty step for me.

    No excuses here stressed for work but to be honest I'd be stressed or not stressed and find an excuse - out for tea tonight and driving so will leave purse at work and be onwards AF - hopefully til the end of the month.

    Morning to you all - I like and respect the honesty here so no point in my not 'fessing up.

    Slides off to naughty step.................xx well done to those on day 1 AF :)
    Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:

    Fay.....I think Ym will have to get his big stick out and I will get the whip out.:DDo you think if we come at you from both sides you will be able to be AF for the rest of the month.;):D
    You know that you really need to be an all or nothing girl so come on me dear....onwards and upwards.
    You've done it before and can do it again.
    Best of luck
    Take care of You

  • Morning all,

    YM - Une point for me please :D

    Fay - I don't understand golf, but think that is what everyone on here refers to as a Spike Millagan or something :confused:
    Don't worry - just join me in starting my new chase after Molly ..... I am going to get closer this time ! Look out Molly - here I come :D
    (Hope I can still be as determined at 6.30 tonight :eek:)

    I have just got Mrs BHB to tip away all the remaining beer in the house - as an indication of my mood this morning :D

    I hope I can go with it and not cave !


    I remember: "Hill Street Blues" :D Ok just showing my age ...........................

    Yep thats the one ;)

    Seriously mate good luck for September, I hope you get to where you want to be. x

    I think that has been the problem, I hadn't really made up my mind where I want to be :confused:. Things are a bit clearer today for some reason (not just the AF day yesterday :o)....

    Best Wishes
    Have a great day everyone

    BHB
    xx
    :) Embrace your inner Hillbilly :)
