    Finishing Nov on 17 Af please Shaggy and a target of 10 for December please.

    Sorry to hear about your dad Happyshopper

    Mrs R ~ It sounds unlikely that MrR will make an changes to his drinking pattern at the moment, so with this in mind, have you discussed with him what his plan would be in the awful event of an emergency with BabyR came up and you werent there?? Im just not too sure what else to advise, sorry

    Maman ~ hope you have a lovely break away

  • Finishing November with 15 afds. Not great but at least I managed half the month without alcohol. quite a few of the days were when I just had 1 glass of wine. As I'm aiming for 14 for December I'm going to have to work on my willpower at varous functions so that I don't drinking anything-I'm going to try hard anyway. Plus I'm working nights on 29th 30th 31st December and 1st Jan so that is my drinking curtailed dramatically! Can't wait-harumph!

    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.

  • Just dashing in (I'm at work so not supposed to be on here) to say my total for Nov was 12; three below target but I had an awful week last week :(.
    3 for the SNC please Bearacus.
    I'll read the posts for the last couple of days later; but hope everyone's ok.
