    1 af day for me please, after not being so.

    I didn't fancy alcohol today, despite going down the shops. I stocked up on my favourite juice, and am drinking hot chocolate instead.

    Please put me down for the School Night Challenge next week mari, I want to do better than 1 day.

    2 af days so far this month (not much, but a start), and am aiming to chalk up some more next week.

    I'm still on the hot chocolate. I'm feeling positive about the week ahead. :)

    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.
