Hi all,
I haven't been on here as I have had such a lot going on. DS2 has been in hospital and now is back home and well.
The day he was given the all clear I have to admit I did drink more than I am accustomed to. But that was only one night.
I am pleased to say I have managed 7AF daysthis month. I would like to aim for 24AF days please shaggy
Take care Miss PiggyI too enjoy your posts. But hugs for now. It does seem like you need them. £50 is a lot to me too so I can imagine how you feel.

AF for me tonight please Shaggy.This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
Fingers crossed x0 -
Mackeroo and Miss P sorry to hear about your news, and you too Poohbear.
I was tempted tonight but didn't. So that's good I guess. I feel very tired at the moment.
That's a third one for me this week Pen and 6/14 for me please Shaggy.0 -
3/16 tonight.
Don't feel like drinking again for a while after last night... we had a party, complete with drinking games etc. Not sensible drinking at all, but it was fun at the time!
Anyway, won't be drinking at all until Saturday, then I'll see how I feel... TA again this weekend, in camp, so chances are I'll end up having a little.“Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.”

Miss P.....if you can't vent here, where can you? I don't mind and I'm sure nobody else does either XXX
6 for me please Shaggy
It's the end of my working week and I'm feeling great for my 3 days AF. I have girlfriends coming round for a takeaway tomorrow night though. So I definitely won't be AF.
I do plan to join the next Sun-Thurs challenge thoughNeed to start again0 -
On a much more postive and happy note lost 3 and a half at fat class tonite, which means ive lost 16 pounds in 5 weeks and gained 34 AF days since the start of Jan :j:j
That's great news on both fronts, well done:T and the same to everyone ese clocking up days (Remember every single one counts)Miss_Piggy wrote: »Evening all
Sorry if I've been going on a bit lately.
So we are feeling a bit down. And I'm very concious that I come on here and bend all your ears with every little problem.

Be back very soon, please! And don't worry at all about the rants I have very, bendy ears!!!:D
Please try not to worry too much about CSA, surely it will go back down again when StepD gets a job?When he called me at work today and reminded me about his night out I thought great, an excuse for a bottle of wine and night in on my own (with the 3 mini bags of course).
After work I headed to the shop but halfway there I remembered I'd said on here that I was going to have a night off the red stuff so I turned round and went straight to the car and came home.
If only every night could be like that.
I've clocked up another tonight so that's
6AF for February please Shaggy
and 3 for the challenge Pen.0 -
Miss P, Mackeroo & poohbear (((hugs))) ...
Jobags well done :T
as for me not AF tonight (hoped it would be) but on a much more positive note I had 1 and 1/2half glasses of wine and was happy to stop at that:A a bit of a change from my "I've started so i'll finish" mentality that normally takes over...

ShaggyxWhat 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 -

Thanks everyone that so kindly listens to my ramblings. Hope to be back soon.
