    Evening all, well since I was last here I've been to Surrey and back to drop DS off at my mums.

    Bit of a weird one for me because in the past I have used/abused my 'freedom' by pulling the curtains and drinking to oblivion!

    I could drink and no one would know the little voice keeps saying to me. (My DS is very on the ball about me not drinking....even had a go about some food the other night that had white wine in)

    Or I could carry on being sober, use the time to relax/be productive/read etc etc do all the things that worn out working mum's should do when they have 5 days of freedom ahead of them.

    Bit of a no brainer really, but I am very aware that for the next week I will have to be very careful not to have 'just the one' Most bizarre thing is...I don't even want a drink.

    Confused!!

    Oh Layer cake's on....laters

    YOU would know. And WE would know because you know you'd have to tell us!:) All you have to do is imagine how your son would feel if he could see you?

    ((hugs)) stay strong.
