The giving up/cutting down alcohol support thread! Part 5

And Good Morning!

I have managed to catch up. I think it was 24 pages instead of 44, was too tired last night to think straight. I did enjoy all the jokes so thank you so much for them.

Anyway all well here. And I can confirm that 29 is going to be final number for this month. Last week and a bit has been so easy, I haven't even thought about drinking. Now I am just worried what is going to happen when I go home tomorrow evening and get back to "normal". First thing I should do is to pour the last of the sherry down the sink but the scrooge in me says that what if I then end up buying more anyway? Hey ho, better just enjoy this weekend and just take things as they come.

Morning all :wave:

I bought a rabbit for DS's birthday (it's early as it's the 14th Nov but he wanted THAT ONE and so I didn't want to miss out on her)




Kids are now driving me nuts with the poor thing, since she's been stationed in hutch they have been sat in front of it, even sat and ate their dinner in front of the thing last night, not seen them since 9am this morning as sat staring at it sleeping.....I'm under no illusions though, novelty will wear off pretty sharpish and I'll be left with all the work (so DS thinks anyway, it's his responsibility and we've made that clear :cool: :rolleyes:)

Should be doing lots of things today but haven't done anything yet, except drive all the way over to the hairdressers first thing as DD1 left her make up bag there yesterday and she refused to go to work till she got it back :rolleyes:

OH off out tonight so trigger time for me, might take the kids to the local firework display though raining here and will be very muddy over there, I'm not a muddy person so might watch it from the comfort and warmth of lounge with rabbity sam watching too no doubt :rolleyes:

Had major cravings last night for the first time, downed about a litre of orange squash which seemed to work.

Hope everyone has a great weekend and a spectacularly sparkely super AF Saturday

Hi Jo,

DS1 really wants a rabbit. I am not sure where I would put the hutch though... ? .

I've bought an outdoor hutch, i.e.



Even though she's going to be a house bunny. This is because there is plenty of room for bunny to stand up and move around, plus it has a seperate compartment for sleeping. It doesn't look at pretty as the plastic indoor cages but I found that most of them were completely open so no quiet space and weren't tall enough. It's in DS's bedroom so I'm not really bothered what it looks like anyway The lid opens up as it's hinged for easy access, plus the mesh has a door and the bottom slides out for easy cleaning.

Here she is in her lounge...:D

Morning everyone.

jo, I thought we were having pics of you with your new haircut. Have I missed something, your hair in new avvie looks quite long to me!

wbf, maybe it was the crunchies and aeros and toast that made you feel so ill on Thursday?

Not AF myself but getting lots of signals (from skin, eyes, head) that I need to be sensible on my drinking days. Drank loads of water with it last night and don't feel too bad today. I have a problem in that I can drink the first half bottle in about half an hour, need to learn to pace myself better. Any tips for cutting down on non AF days?
