The giving up/cutting down alcohol thread part VI

Morning chaps

Jo goodluck with the application form

Welcome to any new peeps today -- come join us - you'll feel the better for a FAFF or so

- Tired today - Shaggydoo I so knwo what you mean

Jo - I tried my sim in DD phone last night - didn't work at all - dunno if its frazzled as well tbh - I've dropped it loads of times, typical of me to drop something indoors (I hadn't been drinking) and it goes capputt!

Must get wriggle on as 2 hours to make up for from last week and its also February break from Wed for 3 days -

I've started to read a book about all the issues surrounding the adult children of alcoholics - its been hard to pick up - I idolised my father - although he was an alcoholic.

Been wondering to myself why on earth having FAFF'ed so well so far I decided to have a couple of drinks over the weekend.

The answer came to me in bed - (which I did know all weekend) I want to be normal around alcohol - I know when left to my own devices, alone, I don't have a very healthy relationship with the stuff. I don't think I will ever be 'normal' around the stuff - so its really best avoided. Nuff said really.

Not giving myself a hard time, nice to see my own attitude shifting and knowing that I can't drink often, much or alone. Considering where I was this time last year I see the progress although its slow.

Nice to feel alive rather than fuzzy around the edges.

No phone for me for a couple weeks - I best get something sorted out I suppose

Time to get out of pj's and off to work - lots to do!

PS £8.40 for two drinks - when did buying a drink get so expensive???

Hi all

As you can probably tell, the lack or paucity of posting means lack of FAFFing. In fact, it was a FAFFless weekend for me

Still, today is a brand new day or some such......

Hope everyone is well. Welcome atacb :wave: and welcome back Fay


And rememebr - he who FAFFs last, FAFFs longest :cool:

maman

:hello: morning all and welcome to atacb.

Back on the wagon today and hopefully all week. Good luck to all FAFFers.

Hope application (and onion tart!) gets sorted out jo.
