MP, it's hard leaving colleagues you've been with for ages but you have to look forward! I don't remember you telling us about the new job. Better hours? money? more interesting?[/QUOTE]

Hi Maman,
New job is full time instead of part time...Better rate of pay too:D

I have been working evening shifts and Sunday mornings for years and this new one is days and then noons so at least every other week I will be home in the evenings with Mr.MP.;);).....and no more Sunday working.....Luxury:D:D
I am really looking forward to it now (have to keep telling myself 'I can do this':rotfl:.....I feel like my life is turning around and grandson is due in four weeks....so fingers crossed...'Life is good at the moment':)

DD1 is taking me out this afternoon for a surprise..!!! Being picked up at 12.15 so better get some cleaning done:eek:

Catch y'all later
Love Mollypollyxxx

Hi thank you all for your warm welcome.

I was really nervous bout sending the first post so it was a bit of type quick and run that and having a sore head due to hangover.

I would love to give up alcohol altogether but just seems so impossible and I seem to come up with every excuse under the sun.

I would maybe drink 4 or 5 nights in a row then manage 2 nights without, then back to square one.

I’m hoping it stays dry here today got lots of washing to do.

Thanks for listening

Hope you all have a great day.

Hi I was wondering if I could join in? Ive been reading for a while and now that Ive built the courage to post Im lost for words. I admire the support that you all give to each other. I find it difficult to go more than 2 nights without having a couple of drinks and have done for a while now. I have 2 jobs 3 kids and a partner. I hope this is ok for a first post. Now to see if i can send it.

Hi Debs

Just out of interest, how did you find this forum ? For me I was desperate for a bit of support to get a handle on my drinking and I just googled "drinking too much" Trasi
