  • Good morning! 10 AFD for me. I did drink on Friday night, 4 vodkas. Felt like crap on Saturday morning, and swore to myself never to drink because someone else expects me to.

    Saturday and Sunday were spent in bed, watching Star Wars (can you believe I'd never seen Episode 4-6 until Saturday!), the Prestige, Being John Malkovich and V for Vendetta. Bliss!

    Morning all

    Well done to all of you who resisted over the weekend!:T

    Budgie - nice to see you!:T

    Bit of a manic day here. Piglet coughed till he was sick this morning. So quickly had to make other arrangements for him. My mum, bless her, said she would have him, even though its her birthday. Felt a bit mean though:( Am sure piglet is fine but don't want to risk him being sick at school as they then send them home and they have to stay away from school for 48 hours.

    Other than that, hopefully won't be a bad day. Meant to be going out with my family for my Mums birthday tonight. Won't be drinking though - rapidly running out of SW syns!:rotfl:

    Hi Everyone and welcome to the newbies :wave:
    11 AF days please Shaggy incl tonite. Poured myself a glass of wine last night and didnt fancy it so poured it back into the bottle. Im not sure why i do this, maybe im subconciously setting myself a test, who knows, im not going to dwell on it too much.
    Off to the cinema tonite with DH to see Black Swan left it a bit late to book tickets so we are in the front row so expect to have a crick in my neck tomorrow:(

    I do this sometimes. Its like I'm giving myself permission and then suddenly I realise I don't actually want to.

    9 AFD please.

  • Err, that's 1 for me please Shaggy.:o

    Boring reasons related to using new job as an excuse. I've been moderate during the week but not at the weekends. I'm planning another one tomorrow night to double my March score.

    G'night all.
