Morning :hello:
I wasn't AF last night (sorry Bearacus) I ended up going for a drink with a friend from work, nothing wildjust a couple of glasses of pub wine. I'm probably out tonight too, might try and jump back on the wagon on Saturday night.
Happy Friday.
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 -

Morning all. What was it with last night? I was crawling the walls and it looks like some of you were too. I ended up going to bed at 8 o'clock but I did it.
My first ever SNC completed so that's 4 for me this week please Bearacus and another 1 for the monthly making 8 please Shaggy. Out tonight with my workmates - beer and curry WooHoo0 -
Well done everyone!! I failed last night- went out for a meal with el husbandio and shared a bottle of (yuk) white wine. Ho hum. HOwever I had been to the gym before hand and we've gone an entire week without wine in the house so thats something to celebrate! I am pleased with myself also as the wne last night was a conscious decsion- a "want" not a "need" if you get me. I am going to try and stay AF tonight as I am off to this Ball tomorrow so have a 1.5 hour drive with colleagues- smelling like a brewery and sweating will so not be a good look!Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.

Hi all,
I fell off the wagon last night and had a bottle of red to myself at home. Unfortunately feel like getting back on the booze tonight, but hopefully I can stay off it. Part of me thinks, have a drink tonight and then get back to being AF from Saturday.0 -

7 AFD (firework - yippee!) and 4 SNC. Well done everyone else who won their own battles!
I have had such a stressful week and I have eaten a monster of a frog today. Not sure what to do tonight...
I also get panic-y and low when I am drinking. I don't drink very much at all (usually 2 glasses of wine), but I find it effects my moods so much that I need to keep an eye on it. Little and often usually leads to a meltdown. Can't take a paracetamol for that. x
