You had been doing so well and had much to be proud of, you can and will get there again because the alternative is not one anyone wants to consider.

What she said sim

I think it's, at least, a positive step that you come on here and 'fess up when you've fallen off big time. Lots disappear in similar circumstances so I take this as meaning you do want to get back to a period of AFness. Please stop pressing that button!!

Evening All,

Thankyou for all your kind words.

I have felt like total !!!!!! today for various reasons.

But I have spent the day with my sister and we have had a good talk about everything, and part of me is glad about last night's shenanigans as I am just pure fed up with it all.

And I am going to sort it. The new rule we have decided is we are not going out JUST drinking, but we might go for a meal or to the pictures and might have a few or might not.

In future we will have a plan instead of just starting drinking then seeing where it takes us. Cos it doesn't usually take me anywhere I want to be.

I am not a bad person but afetr a few too many i turn into a total a h. And i am not going to do this any more. I am not saying i will never drink again, but i might not.

But i can promise this, I am going to post A LOT, and i will be honest about everything, because this thread is such a help to me, all of you.

So thankyou for reading and I will be back.

Very soon maybe 10minutes LOL

Sim I have PMed you, thanks for the message x

I can do this and I will do this and I am going to change myself and my life

Am just not willing to do it any more, and i suspect I am running out of lives.

So that's it.

Thankyou to all, I am feeling a bit better and will be back to happy and positive very very soon, with a little help from yourselves

Off to change sig AGAIN

Thoughts with you SSG, glad you had someone to talk to. Your head sounds straight.

2 glasses of totally unenjoyable white wine last night. Sleep suffers just after two. Don't even really like wine :huh:.

Hope Monday is good to us all.

Good morning. AF for me last night- I ended up going to bed earlyish and so feel quite perky this morning. Off to town now to do all of those 'back from holiday' chores

Right, where to start.

Me first, I failed yesterday, had a couple of large whiskys. Sorry Gien. Will do better today, I really think Sundays are the pits. So quiet b a on telly and a real bore.

SSG Of course your not a bad person, we all change when drinking. From the way you talk, your sister may also have a problem (foregive me if I have misunderstood) if so, love her as you do she might not be the best person to talk to. A pact is a good thing but you may be better off talking to a sober person or even a professional. Please don't take offence.

Sim Your words ''all I want is contentment, the love of a good woman and a well paid and rewarding career''.

Forget it, it aint going to happen.

UNLESS you do something to make it happen. Hate it as you do, you must go back to AA. Do what RA (I think) said sit at the back, keep your mouth shut and listen. 90 meetings in 90 days could make you a new and better person.

Sorry to rant but those are my thoughts. In know pot, kettle black.

Right off over shop to buy coffee, I've run out and I think that's why I am like I am (would attempt to find a rollseyes smiley but it wouldn't work anyway). Oh, sorry, Morning everyone *waves*

I don't know what is going on with this pooter, I've scanned it, crapcleaned it, malware'd it, turned it on and turned it off and kicked it, dunno if this post will turn out like I want it to?

Right, I've been off work officially for 3 hours and I wanna go back, the kids are driving me INSANE!!! So much bickering for people so small :undecided

I really need to get my 'aris in gear, so shall stick some music on and get flyin

Chow for now :wave:

Oh, I might need serious help tonight for an AF night, bells are already working their way into my brain and I haven't eaten breakfast yet, saying that, I wouldn't actually drink yet just find myself planning for later. I've got 2 corries, an enders and dragons den to get through then I can go to bed.

ETA: oooh pooter worked that time
