Oh that's sadWhat 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 -

Hello
I am slinking back in with my tail between my legs ready for a lot of AFD's in Nov. I have sliped back into half a bottle of wine a night and surpassed myself by puking whilst out on Sat night. I then tried to justify to everyone that I wasnt sick becuase of the drink...........however I then realised that I had that day consumed: 2 (small) bottles hoegaarden, 2 pints of cider, went home, came back out, another pint cider, a brandy and coke, another brandy and coke, PUKE MISHAP, then a black sambuca, a tequila shot, and a pint of lager. That is DISGUSTING and I am feeling very ashamed and down about it. I then had 2 hoegaardens on SUnday night, and wine Mon and Tues (although just 2 small glasses each night)
I want to definitely go back to no school night drinking as I felt fab when I was managing that. I went to a friends wedding recently and cant remember much past the meal *cringe* I have a recollection of crying, arguing and falling over, oh and puking when I got home and am also beating self up massively about that.
Its a shame because I LOVE how I feel after an AFD and just need to get back on it. I was bought up by alcoholics and its "funny" how I am like this, yet my sibling wont touch alcohol as hates being around drunk people due to our upbringing.
I am trying to be AF for the rest of the week- I have an important meeting on SUnday and am actually really frightened of having a hangover for it- I have about a 15 mile drive to get there so CANNOT be over limit, and 5.5 hours in a meeting that will be a LOT easier to cope with when Im not worrying about stinking/puking/shaking............I also have a BIG work do on the 12th which is a boozy night but we have been warned to not get too !!!!ed and embarrass the company............Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.
