Hello everyone,
Well Marru, I'm putting my second AFD in today so that's 2/10 for me please.
Jo, hope you feel better soon. Loads to catch up on still, YM so sorry to hear about the oikish kid and mum.
Hugs, and hope everyone is warm and cozy or having fun (or both!) tonight.0 -
evening, just about to go to bed actually.
Well, this evening DH asked me if I wanted a glass of wine and I decided that yes I did. interestingly enough, after a couple of mouthfuls I decided I didn't - it didn't taste so nice, wasn't interesting, so I left the rest of the glass. Strange really. I have also started noticing how much my friends mention alcohol in their lives and the jokes about drink. Never really realised before.
Get well soon Jo and keep warm and safe everyone.Trying to keep in budget.

Jo, really hope you are feeling better tomorrow so you can go and earn some pennies chick xxxx funny about that breaking dream thing, yesterday I spoke to my sis and my little niece (8 months) had a rash and the doc said probably virul but keep an eye on her :rolleyes: but when I rang my Mum tonight as she is looking after her tonight, she has chicken pox :eek: poor little might....

Angie, I love your comment about curling up and relaxing without a drink...even though I can do af nights and don't drink to excess always when I do drink, I must admit I still associate relaxing with a drinkdefinitely something for me to work on next year..

Morning :santa2:
A Christmas miracle! My second AF Friday! So it's 8 for me please Marru.
I have no plans for this weekend, so "maybe" I can be good. I want to be good because I'm out with old friends for a christmas meal Tuesday (they don't drink much so this will be fine). However, next weekend I'm going to stay with friends who drink like mad, so this will be a challenge. Then there is Christmas and New Year so I need to build up my AF days now.
I have to say, after 6 days AF I'm feeling brilliant. I don't want to drink because I don't want to stop feeling like this.:snow_laug
I'm going to buy a tree today:xmastree:
Good Luck
ShaggyWhat do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -
