  • 21 Af days for me too. Lilith you share your bday with my gran who would be 108 if alive today she died in 1994 and she was an angel who lived on the earth.
    I'm not going to analyse anymore, I'm going out on April 20th and need a plan, I want to go sober and stay sober as I will make a fool of myself if I drink, I want to prove to myself that I can enjoy myself without drink, and really enjoy myself not just say it. I'm frightened that I won't be able to do it, I want to be able for just one night to go out and enjoy and remember, and be responsible for my actions. I want to be myself without the alcohol controlling me. Any suggestions, if I have a few it will turn into some more, I know me I get caught up in the moment.

    I wasn't AF last night.

    I have a wisdom tooth extraction today :eek: :eek: OMG :cool:

    I HAVE UPDATED #1201 WITH YESTERDAY'S TOTALS.

    I have relatives staying overnight and I don't know how painful the aftermath of my tooth will be but I will try to do the next update as soon as I can. Have a great Friday!

    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.

    Ouch Shaggydo - hope it all goes well for you today.

    1AF for me please. Came home from aerobics with a need for sweet food last night- that makes a change normally it's for a glass of wine as I "deserve it" :p

    Hope the snow stays away from you all (just starting here in the South Midlands)
