    Everyone Welcome!!!
    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.

    Hi everyone,

    Back to it after the extra long weekend - I'm not sure how I managed it but I did have 1 AFD on Friday so that makes 11/15.

    Have a good week all :)

    I am completely bush whacked - 2 really intense days at work and feeling very very tired.

    Will up date tomorrow - have to go to sleep (AF that is)
    Trying to keep in budget.

    17/25 AFDs, and feeling much better today. Had a long chat with hubby this morning, which helped. I sent my analysis of mum's situation to by sister and 2 brothers, ahead of a social services visit on Friday to assess mum's needs. Sister sent appreciative reply. Brothers haven't yet replied. Can't blame the one who is about to undergo chemo and had an appointment in preparation today. T'other brother needs to get his !!!!! in gear/stop burying his head in the sand. And stop expecting his sisters to carry all the weight.

    An aunty and cousin came for dinner, which brought some much needed light-hearted conversation. I don't think my cousin liked the veggie dish I had prepared for her, but she was too polite to say so - that's the sort of dinner guest I like!
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Another done for this month.

    13 AFDs please, Shaggy.

    I'm not sure about tomorrow as have planned a drinking day. Thursday I'm away for a few day's break.

    If I don't get a chance to post before September, thanks for yet another month's scoring Shaggy, and you too for the SNCs gien.:A

    I'll have my usual target of 10 for September please Shaggy.

    I am away too from Saturday for the whole week Maman so I am not going to set my target quite so high for September - I think I am going to aim for 10 for September please Shaggy.

    I did manage another AFD yesterday so that is 12/15 for August.

    I will rejoin the SNC when I return from holiday.

    Have a good day everyone x
