The Giving up/ Cutting down Alcohol support thread- number 10

legsand

Afternoon everyone,
Ive had today off work and wished I hadnt !!!
managed to stay AF on saturday night,when I got up on sunday hubby had poured what was left of the wine after stepson went home down the sink.
Sunday lunch with friends I was driving so no Wine for me and we managed to take those two bottles that were testing my resolve to them.
So once again no wine in the house have done 7 days AF, am finding that im not thinking so much about drinking and I am sleeping all night, when drinking i would wake up and really find it hard to get back to sleep. And have lost 2lbs in weight.
Thankyou all for your support and encouragement this last week.

xx

Fell off the wagon again big style yesterday.
Ended up at someones house with no idea how i got there.

So ashamed of myself.

Right, come on, it looks like you and I are going to have to support each other! I could have written that exact same thing many, many times. sometimes I forget where I live... I was in a taxi a while ago and couldn't remember my address. And I've ended up in all sorts of scary places after having too many.
Forget about it, what's done is done and tomorrow is a new day.

Are you with me? Lets do this together.

Ooh, and Bearacus I'll be AF tonight cos I have to take DS to the leisure centre for 9pm for a canoeing lesson - I may do an aerobics class while I'm there but my good self and lazy self are curently debating that so will see who wins!

fpt, I suppose you have to weigh up whether you want to put up with the pain for a bit longer or miss out at the beer festival? Big decision.

Yeah you're right, of course I choose the no pain option. I'm just gutted as I've had a pretty lousy summer so far, had problems with the OH a couple of months ago, then had to cancel our week away in Cornwall due to money. This is the first thing I've had to look forward to and now I feel like I'm losing out again. I'd have normally done a festival by now as I do those instead of go 'on holiday' so I've been building up to it. Just bad timing I suppose.

Anyway, I'm AF tonight so 1 for the SNC and 8 days for August please. Our internet hub has died, so I'm posting from my phone hence no pretty colours, sorry!

One for the SNC please Bearacus (sorry no colours I'm on my phone). Bells not so bad tonight, thank goodness.

8 AFDs please, Shaggy, thanks

Full monty for the SNC, please, Bearacus

Thanks for all your comments regarding the tuition fees - DD1 is at uni now, and her fees seem low compared to triple priced ones from next year for DD2. Didn't help my cutting down wine when they first announced it all, although MSE is ultra important now. Hopefully things will change yet again in another 3 years ....

Hi All - well that's Monday done and dusted (I hate Mondays...always so grumpy )

The bells were loud and have been clanging away all evening which has served only to make me even more stroppy than I was to start with....but thanks to 2 cans of Red Bull I've managed to stay AF (I won't sleep a wink but hey ho that will be the lesser of two evils )

I'm now on 15 AFD's shaggy (hope your first day back at work wasn't too painful) and 1 for the SNC please bearacus.
