Another AFD for me last night. Barely even think about drinking now!! Getting through shedloads of coffee though and having massive chocolate/sweet cravings. Is this cos Im used to the high sugar content of alcohol everyday?? Got a bit narky about having to spend £6 on coffee in Tezzers yesterday, made me snigger when I think about how I wouldnt even flinch at spending £12-15 on wine every few days!!Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.

Morning :hello:
By the time I got in from work last night it was half eight. I could have easily have reached for a glass of wine to go from zero to relaxed in one sip - but there was no wine to be hadso I reached for a hot chocolate instead and it had the same effect lol
So 1 for the SNC Bearacus
Have a happy day!
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 -
