  • Welcome to Marco
    Honeybear I do hope you're feeling a bit better tonight sweets
    OMG Is it date night tonight, goodluck if it is!!?

    FAFF jeapordy alert

    Got a few clanging bells here - (wine bells) so am having a cuppa and talking sense into myself - honest I'm trying

    IE no I don't want to go home via supermarket and get some wine - I have too much to do tonight and I bought some wool (very MSE - charity shop bag of wool) so I want to do more of my blanket tonight - can't crochet and drink - not enough hands!

    If you're feeling a bit like this - here's a hug and like me try to keep the bigger picture in mind.

    I worked out today - if we do the Londinium meet up in early April - then UM chaps its about 6 weeks til face to face contact!

    Can I do a complete body overhaul in that time?????????????????????

    I know I'll probably drop a fair bit of weight if I don't drink between now and then....................

    Fire is on at home (I dashed back and sorted it at lunchtime) - another cupboard to sort later on - I need to find some old curtains to frankenstien them with some for my campervan. That SHOULD keep me busy. I'll be snuggled up on the sofa with DD - maybe a movie and my laptop/crochet for distractions.

    Hope you're all good - try for an AF one tonight if you're up for it - its mid-week - a good night to let yourself chill out and be AF - lurkers and non-lurkers alike

    FAFF tonight - you know you're worth it

    Thanks for the welcome folks,

    I'm also sitting here twiddling my thumbs thinking of the nice cold bt of chardonnay in the fridge, not tonight though.

    Going to try and keep of it completely till 1st March at least, don't think i'll manage though back to work on Monday after a week off.

    Bought a carton of cranberry juice at tesco today, might have a glass of that ( touching on the unknown here !! )

    Good luck to all tonight.
    Smile and be happy, things can usually get worse!
