    evening all

    *bends at the knees*

    don't think I've another one to chalk up, can't remember the last one :o

    since then we as a family have lost a job and got a job. So dunno whether I'm Arthur or Martha at the mo......

    might be in here a lot more by December (I refuse to use the 'C' word in September :naughty:)

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D
  • Lost the way this month finding solace in a bottle of wine at the weekend feeling mega low indeed. Will pull myself up be my boot braces for Oct and regain my positivity :D

    Sending you lots of hugs Fedupski.

    Inspired by you I've been trying to do a bit of 'flying' every night and it's working well for keeping me active and away from the wine and also stopping a huge build up that needs tackled at the weekend.

    thanks lovey for that!

    Well done on the flying - it has really helped me occupy my mind at these low points, keep busy and get clean and tidy!

    Hugs FUAS - baby have a huge hug.


    I don't mind - Madame, Mistress, Miss or Fairy Angel Princess if you like - :rotfl: (the kids call me it when they want something ;)) but not Sargent I'd be rubbish at that stuff (although I am good at shouting and being very very strict).

    OK will put you down for 20 - and I want all naughty knickers put away for October - everyone can keep out their 'silly ones' though. :D

    I am just back from teaching my first ever class (well half teaching I am helping the proper teacher person out as his second in command!)

    I survived and people will come back :T next week I get to talk about exciting things like soil, herbs and salads :)

    Waves to all :)

  • Evening everyone,

    Please add another AFD to my total YM.

    I'm pleased to have got back on track right away after my slip the other day.

    My OH and I have agreed that there cannot be a DROP of alcohol in the house at any time. We don't normally have any in, but a friend stayed for the weekend a couple of weeks ago, so we got in 2 bottles of red wine for her and she didn't drink one of them. So that was partly the reason I scoffed the wine the other day, as it was still sitting in the cupboard and I just opened it in a moment of weakness.

    Fay = please put me down for 28/31 for October. I hope I will do better than my target, but I won't quite get to my target for Sept, so will give it a shot for October instead.

    Off to bed now, very tired. Hugs to all.

    Caz
