Just a quick one to say 11 for Nov and 3 for the SNC please
Have managed 2 out of the 3 nights that my BF is away with work so far :A Tomorrow night is going to be the worst though as I don't have work after college and all my college friends usually go for a few drinks as it's the last day of the 'school week'. I usually have the BF to come home to but as he's not here I would usually go along with my friends... although work at 7am Friday should dictate that I don't go really. I've had my fair share of Friday hangovers and they're not nice!0 -

Why not try and go straight home and have a luxurious bath, a bit of a pamper and an early night tomorrow? You'll be so delighted with yourself on Friday! Good luck, whatever you decide.0 -
Morning :hello:
1 more AFD please Bearacus.
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 -

Welcome drinkupretty - glad to have you on board.
This week's going to plan so far with 2 more AFD's please Shaggy and the same 2 for the SNC please Bearacus. I had wine last night as planned - I was speaking at a conference during the day then had a "do" at night - and it was lovely. I felt a bit guilty though and I'm worried about tonight. Usually a night on the booze is followed by another one and that's where the trouble starts. I need to be AF tonight to complete my SNC this week and prove to myself I can drink when I want to and not because I have to.0 -
Morning All,
AF again yesterday - I am really enjoying not drinking this week - I seem to be getting so much more done and am certainly less grumpy with my children in the morning !!
So, up to 10 AFDs for Nov please Shaggy and 3 for the SNC please Bearacus
Have a good day everyone

Morning. AF last night making 7 and 2 please Shaggy & Bearacus. Finally my first smilie for the month!
DH went to bed early cos I was watching celebrity. Then I stayed up to watch frozen planet that I'd recorded. I must say that my dog really enjoyed it, she was fascinated by the polar bearsLBM Dec 10. Total unsecured debt £41176 :eek: Nov 12 Debt Free Thanks Mum x RIP x

1 AFD for yesterday please shaggy. I plan not to drink today either. Having a stinking cold helps with the no drinking as alcohol and cold remedies do not mix. Full and final settlement with Orange has been accepted and will make payment on Wednesday when I get a bit more money in. Today I need to fight through my cold and tidy up and get some essays done. Is it too early to put the Christmas tree up yet? :xmastree::cool:0
