    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.

    27/20 AFD's and didn't get a birthday drink as too knackered to go out. going for a curry with DHs colleagues tonight, but he's designated me to drive, so no post-birthday drink tonight either. Part of me is miffed, but more of me is glad.

    Put me down for 29 days for June please Shaggy, giving me 1 day for son's 29th birthday.

    Meditation and stroking pets can bring down BP, Shaggy.

    Shaggy, Sticking to that plan will do wonders for more than just your BP I think - I reckon you'll look and feel great too.

    Not sure what to set as a target for next month. I think I will tentatively go for a target of 15 please.

    Just declaring another AF day here. Off to bed early as I feel exhausted - I think it must be a hayfever/allergy thing.

    28 AFDs. Had lime and soda with curry, sadly, what used to be a very good curry house is now mediocre.

    30 AFDs for me, 60 consecutive days. Tomorrow evening will be 2 months.

    I'm considering opting out of June as I feel rather uncomfortable reporting the ease at which I'm abstaining compared to others struggles that I read about. It makes me feel a bit out of place and like I'm rubbing it in.

    Morning :hello:

    AF & Caffeine(ish) free day yesterday. Blasted my body with vits, CE Q10, Garlic capsules, magnesium, cranberry, hibiscus tea (fowl) fruit & veg and an hour and a half walk and got a better BP reading this morning - 106/81 (compared with yesterdays 113/89). Going to continue with the regime until I get the lower reading into the 70s...

    While I was in Boots buying all the vits I noticed herbal nytal and I gave it a go last night and I slept really well...

    Friday already?
