    Welcome shar-rona. I'm so sorry for your loss-what a traumatic horrendous experience. This thread is a great support. I try not to keep wine in the house unless it is a planned night to have some wine because it just screams to me! I'm dieting too shaggy-I look like I'm pregnant at the mo'! 11 afds for me please shaggy and 3 for the SNC please bearacus. tonight will be the test as I always normally share a bottle with dh on a thurs but he has already asked me if i want a bottle of red and i've said NO!

  • Welcome Shar-ona
    I am so sorry for your loss; you are so brave. Other people have said far better than I how valuable this thread is; you are definitely in the right place.

    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.

  • Hmm, well I succumbed to temptation last night and woke up at 4.30am this morning. And to think there might be a link between drinking and insomnia (My ability to be in denial is quite impressive, even to me!) Have a good Friday everyone.

    PS Welcome back Miss P (at least my insomnia meant I caught up on here!)

    PPS Thanks for the Friday Hug!
