  • Afternoon
    Just caught up. 24/30.

    Jo, glad you are feeling a bit better, I too am still on the better job hunt. It will happen.

    Am 3/4 of the way through the Marian Keyes book. Can hear myself take sharp intake of breathe with one particular character, you just don't want her to do it - again.

    Grey Pilgrim, you do make me laugh...


    Hi DC

    I have just finished the Marian Keyes book ( big book !!) and am now feeling a bit lost . Need to find a new book me thinks .

    40SM:D

    Hi Elantan,
    Good to see you are still AF.Well done.I am at nearly 18 months now too.
    My OH still drinks as well ...but not to the extent where it is ruining our relationshop.Hope you can sort out whatever's best for you.

    Hope everyone's having a restful weekend.

    Take care of you
    Love Mollypollyxxxx

    20 for me please YM.

    just thinking of you all, and MP in particular...soon you'll have 18 months under your belt....and every second's worth it!

    Was out with Mrs B the other night and I was actually encouraging her to have a drink because she doesn't in the house....she has been been really good for me and I just want her to not miss out....

    She had one and didn't want any more...

    anyway..take care....constant vigilance....
    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
