  • Well done Miss P :j

    DH did the same to me tonight. We ran out of milk, so he was nipping to the shop. He asked the dreaded question, but I said "no" too :jAND.........my good behavior seems to be rubbing off on him. No beers brought home either. Result I say!
    Need to start again :o

    I am sooooo happy and feel great for it.

    What a great thing to post FH, well done, that's how we all want to feel and why we're on here!!

    Delighted to hear that there are people going to shops and not buying any booze;):T Do shout if anyone sees marru anywhere near one, she's banned!

    Sorry to hear that piglet's poorly again MissP, hopefully Calpol's magic will work overnight. Sending you a hug about the CSA situation. I know it's difficult for you now but his children aren't tots so there is an end in sight.

    Nothing to report on the AF front for me. I went out to eat and had one glass of wine with meal. I used to come home and carry on drinking but no longer:) Back on the wagon tomorrow.
  • Well done Miss P and Forever Hopeful for not saying the magic phrase that leads to sore heads and regrets tomorrow!

    I am AF tonight so that's 8/14 for me please Shaggy and first of three for the challenge please Marru.

    Sleep well everyone.
  • Morning all

    Disturbed night here with Piglet - he's got an awful cough, bless him. He's off to my Mums again today but I'm starting to feel bad about her having to have him all the time so am going to try and book tomorrow and friday off work in case he's still poorly.

    I'm amazingly awake though....washing already on and tidying done. Am sure my energy will wear off soon!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Am very glad I didn't give in to the urge for wine though....don't think I could have coped with a sickly Piglet in the middle of the night if I had a banging head myself :)

    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.

    Hi Maman, yes I know you're right. At worst 4 years, at best a year and a half. This is what I was explainng to OH last night. At the end of the day, the CSA aren't going to change the assessment so he's just got to get used to the idea. We have a life to live ourselves and I don't want to be constantly feeling bitter about his ex and her family. Its up to us to make the best of it.:) I'm actually feeling quite positive now. Just have to get that feeling to rub off on OH!!:rotfl:
