Woot, I think I can safely say give me another two. I have a 2 hour sports massage tonight from 7-9 and will not be in a fit state to drink so can be trusted.
My clients are all out for a drink tomorrow afternoon which I 'have' to attend in case I am called the killjoy. I will be explaining that I don't travel well after a drink and as I am flying tomorrow night, will be off the pop. First real test but I am up for the challenge. Next challenge is the 2 weeks on holiday...Looking for a fresh start without credit.0 -

Morning all!
Glad i gave you all a laugh with my in-laws and the microwave! Maman - my in-laws have always passed off their rubbish onto us. Think they see it as saving themselves a trip to the tip!:rotfl:. And no, it wouldn't occur to them to buy us one (and I wouldn't expect them to as they are both retired). They have very strange attitudes to our family (they treat Piglet very differently to OH's other two who they think are really deprived as they come from a "broken" home. The fact that they get SO much more than Piglet seems to escape thier notice...the kids mum gave the kids a laptop and the latest PSP thing for xmas!!:eek:).
Anyway, back OFF my soapbox!!:D
Feeling much better today. Thank-you ALL for your help and support yesterday. Without you lot I would have probably done the whole self-loathing spiral thing again, and quite frankly, I'm tired of it. So you are all Fab!!:D
My "Living Sober" book is on its way apparently. So thats a start. Haven't spoken to OH yet about the other night but I know I need to have a serious talk with him as he feels I'm capable of just having a few drinks and stopping. I know I'm not capable of that. SO MP, you are right. Giving up completely is really my only option. Why is that thought so scary??? Yesterday I felt so ill, my day was wasted doing nothing and I felt depressed. Why would I WANT to make myself feel like that!? Madness!
Anyway, will stop waffling. Well done to all of you with bags of gold and treasure chests!:T Shaggy, a wonderful job of scoring this month...I love seeing your list in the mornings!
Best get off and bath Piglet - his hair is very scary this morning!!!!:eek:
