Hi All
TFI FRIDAY! :j
Yesterday was hell at work, I have a really stressful job that can affect me emotionally on a daily basis. I know that I make a difference and thats my motivation in doing it. Anyway, had about 2 thirds of a bottle of wine last night. Not very pleased with myself and feel lethargic this morning!
Going easy on myself though....I wouldn't think twice about having a full bottle of wine (and more) every night before I woke up and realised what I was doing to myself and my bank account!
Think I'll miss my target now!
Enjoy your Friday folks!

Good afternoon! Was supposed to have half a bottle of wine and dinner out last night, but because DH wasn't in the mood, we went home and had a banana bread beer each instead. Yummy, and I didn't wake up feeling horrible.
Will be having another beer today, as I had to have a colposcopy this morning which was not very nice, and I have to work tomorrow. Just keeping pay day in mind, more off the debts.

25 please Shaggy
I am not going to join the March challenge as I am back on meds. I really want to get better and I know that if I drink I am not giving the meds a chance to work. So that should be enough motivation for me. Also I am hoping to be able to limit my online time however jury is still out on that one. Will definitely report how I finish February and then you might see me soon or you might not. Will definitely be in the diner thou."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Very quiet on here? Where is everyone?
Had a good day today. Me, mum and OH took piglet to the local "Steam" museum (museum in swindon for GWR). Was really good fun. Piglet had great fun playing on steam trains

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 -
