    Morning
    I've been lurking for most of this year so far. Life is a little chaotic.
    I'm pleased to say out of the 58 days that have passed in 2010 I have been AF for 40.

    Not setting a target for March, I'm going with the flow, in a positive frame of mind.

    Just want to wish you all a laid back MAD (love it), hope house moving, interviews and all family/relationship stuff sorts itself out with the best possible outcome.

    Think you are the nicest, friendliest people on this forum, (can't we have a sort of timeshare island somewhere for AF'ers?

    Happy Sunday.
    DC.

    No 40sm, am okay, TY.

    Seems a lot of us are facing life head on at the moment. Thankfully don't need a glass of the amber stuff to push me in the right direction. Like you I'm tackling this debt here and now.

    Just about to update diary :)

    Hi everyone - well done for all your achievements this month and here's to a great MAD March. Fay - I think my grand total for February is 24 so I'm well pleased considering that before Christmas, I was drinking every single day. This morning I felt all bright eyed and bushy tailed, woke up naturally at 7.15 and got loads of housework done, enjoyed a bracing long dog walk (the weather's chilly here today) and did lots of baking this afternoon - compared with the Sundays I used to spent feeling hungover and unable to do anything much more than lying on the couch clutching my head! Ooh it's so lovely to be sober! Enjoy your Sunday evening everyone xx
