Oh Miss P BIG hugs - I hope you're feeling better. Don't be too down on yourself. You sound very self aware to me and I so enjoy your posts - I always think what a lovely little family including you.0

Thank you everyone for the messages of support after my last post. I found it very hard to write about and only did so because I wanted Mrs R to know she's not alone.0

Good evening all
Thanks for being such an understanding bunch. I've felt very odd last few days. But I HAVE been AF. Had to go to my brother and SIL's last night as it was SIL's birthday. I stuck to coke which drew some comments...most notably "Oh but we stocked up on white wine as you were coming.....". Makes me realise how others see me
Have actually had a nice weekend though. Lots of playing with Hoppsy (and discovering how he can get in any small gap imaginable!!)

Congrats on the AFness MissPiggy :j
The comments you got about the wine are what I am getting all the time on nights out, I just let it go over my head now
I have spent the weekend decorating my DS bedroom, finally..
Just got the odd bits to do with the painting, touching up the ceiling etc
Then next weekend I will do his door and radiator - what an exciting life I lead!

Morning :hello:
1 AFD to report since Friday. Had just 1 drink in the pub Friday (a large glass of white) and half a bottle of wine with OH on Saturday watching a movie. AF last night but my hayfever is killing me so I never felt in the least bit inclined to drink
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 -
