Morning all
Thank you to YM for keeping us safe last night, it never occurred to me Lurky bout burglersmust remember to never leave any of my valuables in here!
Miss P, I hope you enjoy your day
YM, hope you get to sleep past 11.30am today and no more Argos shopping trips
Congrats to all that achieved the first of four AF days yesterdayI must admit it was a bit of a struggle for me as I was cooking summat yummy and cooking summat yummy = wanting beer (
=
) so this evening I have decided to cook early so I can keep out of the kitchen during the bells time
Other goals today are mainly what I didn't achieve from yesterdays set of goals, I only managed the trek in the forest and farm yesterday, all manner of meal planning and cleaning didn't happen. So today is about cleaning and meal planning
The kids however are driving me mad this morning, they want to go back to the forest where we went yesterday and buy a kite
and play with their bubbles
and ride their bikes
. This doesn't make the house very clean!
So it looks as though I am going to have to put ear plugs in and ignore them for this morning at least.
Really must go and do summat.......:whistle:

A question for the giver uppers. Did you find a lot of your old 'friends' fell by the wayside? I am finding that now the alcohol blinkers are off I am seeing some people in a new and not necesarily flattering light. (I'm sure it's a mutual thing!)Any tips for this?
I spend more time with family/relatives now plus I fill up my time with reading/TV/crosswords/gym/cooking/DIY. I ditched all my drinking 'friends' when I gave up which sounds a bit cold hearted but it was a good move for me.0 -
