Really feel like I need to be AF today, body feels tired.

Plus forget the tattoo incentive, I've got a new one.....I've seen a car for sale and I want it, I want it today.

But, unfortunately, it's going to be one of those days. Had an incredibly bad nights sleep after an animal screaming outside somewhere for best part of an hour, tried to sleep with my fingers in my ears cos it was too hot to put my head under the pillow. Then I got up to make the kids lunch, had promised them I'd do them a BLC (bacon, lettuce and Cheese/cucumber) in those bake at home bagettes and turned the oven on and ran out of gas. Thank god I've some bread and cheese, although they are creating like you wouldn't believe cos they were looking forward to their 'posh' bagettes This also means I have no lunch

Anyway, forget that, I want that car....how do I get it :think:

Shoot!! Look at the time!!! :eek:

Morning all!

Normal service is now being resumed!:D All social events / trips / parties are now out of the way.

Nans Tea Party went really well. She loved it. And everyone turned up, which I found amazing. Have put a few pics on FB.

Confession time though....I did have a couple of bucks fizzes at the party. I enjoyed them though and I didn't get steaming drunk and embarrass myself so am not going to beat myself up over it!

I was actually talking to my best mate as she was there...she says she has found I'm worse on wine. And she's right. I can drink wine like theres no tomorrow. If I drink cider or beer I have a couple and stop. Its wierd isn't it?

Anyway, hope everyone is ok? Has anyone heard from our HB???

That's sounds like an excellent reason for sticking to champagne MissP:D Glad the party went well.

DB, may I join the Mon-Thurs challenge please? I've been wavering as I've not had 2 consecutive days for a month. I'll do my best!

Bells !!!

I've just worked out that when I had my last AF holiday in 2006 I had been 5 weeks sober before hand. It is now 5 weeks before my holiday to the same place!

Doesn't alter the fact that the bells are ringing though :undecided
