    I've a few thing on this week including Wedding Anniversary tomorrow. Would you sign me up for 3 for the SNC please Mari? I have an early start next Saturday so I'm going to include Friday if that's OK? Strangely enough, I often sleep better after a few drinks but have to be sure to find the stop button othewise I wake up dehydrated with a headache. Not a good feeling.

    Well the stop function failed epically last night. Was a works do for DH and someone was being very mean, and someone else bought me another drink so instead of stopping I continued and then had another and then when the meanie kept going I ended up outside in tears on the phone to my sister ...

    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.

    Morning All,

    Not AF at all over the weekend :mad:
    So here we are on Monday, will try the SNC again and I WILL be AF until I go away next week (or I won't make my target again :o)

    So today I will be busy I have so much to do before we go, hopefully that will keep me out of trouble.

    Have a lovely day everyone,

    Mari x
