    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.

  • 7 for me please Shaggy

    I've been struck down with tonsillitis. What a nightmare it's been! Can't sleep, can hardly swallow water let alone eat. I've never had such a sore throat in my life :(

    I've been able to swallow painkillers today, so that's taken the edge off a little bit. The kids have been to school and nursery as they would have been on any other Mon/Tues so at least I've been able to rest. I should make the effort to get into work tomorrow but will wait and see how I sleep tonight.

    Needless to say it's been an easy further 3 days on my AF count. Feeling ill doesn't make the wine seem appetizing!
    Need to start again :o

    It's an ill wind.....:rotfl:

    Seriously, have you got anti-biotics for your tonsilitis? In my experience it'll start to feel better if you get some prescribed.

    What a great thread, excuse my newbee exuberiance but one of my massive weaknesses is buying too much alcohol when I cant afford it.

    Can anyone join in?

    Pro-rata for March I am going to try for 13 AF days for the rest of the month.


    If I had discovered MSE this time last year I may not be going down the road to BR
