    Morning :hello:

    1 more AFD for me Bearacus. I'm out for a meal tonight for OH's birthday and at a party tomorrow night, so decisions have to be made about what to drink. I won't be going mad whatever I do :D

    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.

    I'm not sure whether to set a target for September or not, I'm not planning to drink at all just see how it goes, but I do love the smiley faces and it would be nice to achieve more than one!!

    You're more than welcome - but absolutely no pressure :) Whatever is best for you.... :T

    Hello all,

    New poster to this thread here. I just wrote a long post and then lost it, so I'm going to cut straight to the chase - I really need to reduce the amount I'm drinking so I like to be put down for 30 AFDs - the whole of September - please. It's my birthday in a few weeks, but alcohol has stopped being something special for celebrations for me and become far too common place, so I'd like to celebrate the end of another year and beginning of a new one this way instead.

    Will be checking in on here everyday for inspiration and support :).

    Best wishes to everyone.

    smiley-welcome-wagon.gif you're on the list and Good Luck :T

  • Welcome Tearose :) Good luck for September.

    Thanks for scoring Shaggy. Could I change my target from TF to 20 please? Thanks.

    Lovely day here. I'm off work and off shopping with DS2 for stuff for when he starts uni.

    Have a good day all.

    Hope to be reporting my first AF day for September later.
    I'm very impressed by the August scores.
