    Hi All

    Another quick post from me tonight....I'm away with work loads at the moment so really struggling to get online to update. AF last night and tonight which puts me on 10 AFD's pelase shaggy and 4 for the SNC please bearacus.

    Miss P - sorry to hear about your Dad...hope any treatment that he's put on starts working soon.

    Welcome back cazzamazza :hello: - sounds like you've been dealing with a lot recently....hopefully if nothing else we will be able to support you on your AF journey.

    Well done to everyone on all the AFD's achieved so far this month...this thread has been a really motivational read over the last couple of weeks :)

  • Welcome back cazza!!! Only a little while ago I was wondering how you were doing!

    Bad night here - stepkids being ars*s and I'm fed up with me and my family being taking for-granted. Am very fed up.

    Hello
    AF for me again tonight, which makes the full monty for the SNC and I'm up to 14 for September. I'll be having a drink or two on Saturday, but after that haven't got anything planned until Christmas so hope to be able to have a long run of AFness.

    Flimsier - my son is a Fulham fan, not many of you about!
    Say what you mean.. mean what you say... without being mean.
  • Just been out with an old friend and didn't drink - actually was easy to do so tonight (isn't always) partly because I have been inspired by this thread.

    4 for the SNC please Bearacus which takes me to 6 AF days in a row and 10 AF days in September, the most for a long time ( but not counting really Shaggy!). Thanks all.

    Just hope that I don't go overboard this weekend, not sure whether to keep going for AFs or stick to SNC? Don't want over enthusiasm to end in big failure ...?
    Getting there...slowly! :D

    GC : must do better
    NSD: very rare

    No matter how slow I go I am lapping everyone on the couch.

    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.

    Afternoon all

    Struggling here today. My Dad has been diagnosed with Crohns disease. Although he's feeling quite positive (he's been in so much pain lately its good to know now whats wrong and start getting treatment), I'm finding it hard to deal with. Because I'm a "Daddy's Girl" I suppose. I know he's ok and all that. But doesn't stop me worrying :o

  • Morning all

    More by luck than judgement - up to 15 please Shaggy

    Maman - that made me smile (after I googled it!!:rotfl::T). Think I take things too much to heart - am toughening up though!:D
