Hi everyone. Sorry I've been absent for a while. Its been a very busy month. I have managed only 9 AF days this month but might manage a couple more before the end of the month. I have to say that although I knew it would be a bit of a boozy month, I did feel like I lost control a little, and I didn't like it........had to have a whole week tea total to recover from drinking a bit too much every day for 2 weeks!
My target is 20 AFD for August please Shaggy.Debt Free Date: November 20170 -
Hello I had a drink last night last week was a boozy do, but managed to keep the whole thing under control which is good.
I think I will try for 21 days for August pleaseStart info Dec11 :eek:

Delighted to say I've had an AF Saturday. I needed to claw something back as I've been sitting in the garden with the rose most evenings this week. I reasoned that we don't often get the chance! Only a couple of glasses each evening but I was a bit cros with myself as they were school nights. So tonight I went out but didn't drink.:)
That's 12 AFDs for July please Shaggy, and may I have my
usual target of 10 for August.0 -
Another one please for me, and best of all even though DH indulged I heard no bells!
So 20 in July thanks you and 21 target for AugustStart info Dec11 :eek:

Afternoon all!!
Sorry have been awol - been really busy with one thing or another and just haven't seem to got time to myself recently. However, all social engagements that were in my diary are now done and dusted:D so life should calm down somewhat!!
OH's daughter recently turned 18 (and a few days before her birthday she passed her driving test!!:j) so we've had lots of celebrations for that.
Drinking is creeping up again so I'm going to try and have an AF couple of weeks, and then will see after that. So Shaggy - please can my target for August be 21?
Off to mooch through thread and catch up
