Hello All

Fellow Aries here HB and PBT - am in good company I see!!

Happy Birthday to you Maman - hope you have had a lovely day.

MOD - I'm sorry you have had a lapse - it's tough I know and everyone here is to offer support if you need it. Onwards and upwards girl!

Not AF for me tonight as went out for a curry with family (unheard of as we are always so skint!!) and had some beer - it was lovely but I stopped after main meal and we didn't get wine to bring home so I am feeling ok about it.

Love to all

Have fun Fedupski.....where are you going???

Thanks for all the good wishes - I am off to Northumberland coast for a week looking forward to the cobwebs and pollution being blown away alongside the cold germs that have resurfaced today!

I said at work I was having an AF holiday after a collegue asked if I was taking lots of bottles of wine. A few months ago I would have done, now I am looking forward to not drinking alcohol and seeing if I can manage an AF week!

Good luck to everyone having a MAD night or MAD weekend

Do you think being an Aries predisposes one to drinking alcohol......There seems to be a lot of us.!!!!!:rotfl:

No, we're just the gobby ones so it seems like there's more of us than others :rotfl:

Our Deepest Fear by Marianne Williamson

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
