    and how often has this ended in misery?

    was feeling knacked just now after doing "getting ready" stuff and couldn't work out how I'd have fitted drinking in!

    Remember one year getting progressively more hammered as I wrapped presents, finsihing at 3.30 am and the kids woke up just after 7.

    And I'd no real idea what I'd wrapped...

    Horrible!

    Also, looking back at doing Christmas dinner with a tray full of goose fat slopping around as I wobbled round the kitchen...how I didn't end up with serious burns is beyond me...

    so...take it easy everyone...I will!

    Bis
    For what I've done...I start again...And whatever pain may come ...Today this ends... I'm forgiving what I've done -AF since June 2007
  • Phew, think I'm sorted for tomorrow and Boxing Day :j- if not I guess it's tough as the shops are shut Saturday.
    Christmas seemed to sneak up on me! :D
    Two more AF days and the days I did drink were more controlled - guess Sat will be a test as we have people coming round, am beginning to stress and use vino to relax! :o
    Anyway thanks to all for their posts which have helped immensely and I hope you all have a Merry Christmas.

    take care xx

    Well done with various Christmas preparations and AFness everyone!!

    We have been doing last minute christmas present shopping dash to get DD pink slippers. We found them - sadly they don't have the picture she wanted but I hope Peppa Pig will console her. That is the only thing she asked and only thing I didn't have for her.

    Now it is just doing some baking and wrapping and tomorrow to enjoy everything.

    Have Fantastic Christmas Everyone!!!
