    I worried about that, and sometimes still do worry a little.
    But it's my life, and I need to do what's right for me. Not always easy, but it's worth it

    I went to a party during the festive season and decided not to drink so I could drive the kids home and was told that I was being boring. The person who was saying it had only ever seen me being the life and soul of the party previously.

    If not having my brain and liver calcified is boring, then bring it on!

    12 please Shaggy

    Hi HS, yes, we're Potters and so pleased with yesterday's result, we're still pinching ourselves! I can't believe that I spent the day AF and enjoyed it. I've wondered how I'd have thought about alcohol if we hadn't have got through (would I have used it as an excuse to drown my sorrows?)? But, I didn't use celebration as an excuse to drink so I think that shows my determination (alcohol never solved anything anyway)!

    7 AFDS for me please. Drank over the weekend but not enough to have a bad hangover. Very impressed with those who had clear headed weekends-I need to try harder.

    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.
