I was by no means AF Fri or Sat and today won't be either!Back on the AF wagon next week; I'd like to add 3 or 4 more nights by by Friday, depending on if I drink at a work thing on Tuesday.
Hope you all have a good week.
Me, too, wbf. I'm out for lunch tomorrow so probably manage Tues, Weds, Thu. Would you put me down for 3 on the SNC if you're around Bearacus?
Good luck from me too MrsR. You could also try a hot curry to help things along.0 -
Hello! Hope you are all well and enjoying the nice weather today-I'm stuck at work! I wasn't af last night or Friday night but I was restrained-my SIL and kids and husband came round last night and before if someone came to dinner I always had no restraint with the wine and ended up a mess at the end of the night but last night i had a limit of wine i could have and I stuck to it and then finished off with a camonile tea-felt so much better for it plus I didn't wake up feeling like I'd been a drunken idiot!

Hi All :wave:
Got back from my holidays today. Had a great time, was not AF but didn't drink to excess so that has to be progress
Needed to jump back on here quickly to make sure that I don't slip back into bad habits, so if you're running the SNC bearacus can I put myself down for the full Monty this week please.
Had a quick read back and it looks like July is proving to be a good one in terms of AFness.
Mrs R - I'm selfishly a little pleased that Baby R hasn't put in an appearance yet, would've hated to have been away when it all kicked off...but I'm back now so full steam ahead
Darwins_mum - so sorry to hear your sad news, hope you're as OK as you can be, take care x

No more AFDs to report but haven't been going too wild.
Have a happy day
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 -

Lol! I wish it was full steam ahead. I'm getting a bit fed up now. Aching and twinges since 5.30am, but I wouldn't be surprised if I'm still here tomorrow.
Well done for not drinking to excess while on your hols :T Holidays are always a time for eating and drinking too much so you have done really, really well!!!!!!
