Thanks Miss P, you're right. I just wanted to get off to a good start for Dec, and having done to AF Wednesdays in a row, was hoping at was becoming a good habit (habits and traditions rule my life, and would have been nice to have a good one for a change).
Still, two teas instead of two beers means I'm that little bit healthier than I would have been before finding this forum...:D
I'm not leaving the house today. Far too cold, snow is very thick and its been snowing heavily since about 6am! I might build a "Virtual" snowman in Photoshop :rotfl:Smoke-free since Jan 2012 :j Now its just the drink, and the weight, and life in general0 -

Not many people want to monitor their drinking in December! We deserve a medal:rotfl:What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.0 -

Good morning all!
2 for me please Shaggy
Challenge completed - 4 for me please Pen
Chilly chilly here today!! I seem to really feel the cold nowadays and am spending most evenings wrapped up in a blanket!:eek: Whether its cos I'm still poorly I don't know. Good thing is, I haven't really fancied a drink (only when Piglet was misbehaving and got through that ok) so should rack up those AF days this week.:)
Sim - well done you. Sounding very positive.
Up early here today which probably means I'll be late getting Piglet to school :rotfl::rotfl:
Take care all in this grotty weather

2 for me please Shaggy. Performed a particularly balletic unplanned dismount from my trusty two-wheeled steed in the middle of the icy road yesterday, followed by a long graceful slide. All I can say is, my bike is a better dancer than Ann Widdicombe. Might get the tube today tho'.
Stay warm, troops!
hs...nothing to see here...0
