Morning :hello:
1 more AFD.
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 -

Morning all,
Hot choccie for me too last night so that makes 8/12 AFD's - between the lot of us the sales of hot cohoclate must have increased dramatically.
Happy Wednesday everyone0 -
I was just thinking this morning, when I woke up, how I love waking up feeling good, without burning eyes and a fuzzy head. Looking forward to peering outside and seeng what kind of day it is. I also kind of look forward to my AFDs! I am glad to be back on track after a couple of days of planned drinking. It feels odd, but good!
Like my life is turning and my priorities are changing and I am in control....
Have a good day everyone.

Evening All,
Including my previously unclaimed night last night plus tonight I'm at 15 AF nights! Wonderful big cheese of a Moon out there so trying to persuade OH to come for a walk too! He is already having a great big glass of wine! Meanwhile, I'm actually not feeling envious as I'm savouring the clear headed mornings!
All those embarking on a walk tonight wrap up warm and think of the double positive of being the one who isn't sitting on the couch with a glass of wine!!:T

The moon was amazing last night wasn't it!! See what you can miss when you are lying !!!!ed on the sofa;)Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
Declaring 10/18 today. Not sure I'm going to manage to hit my target this month though.
Does it matter?? You are doing a lot of 'work' on yourself I'm sure! Be gentle with yourself.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -

Thank you and no it doesn't matter. Unfortunately, if I have a target and don't at least meet it, I'm often despondent about "failing".2018 totals:

What about you have an interim target? Aim for the 14 day smiley and if you exceed it then even better. This month was never going to be easy for you with family celebrations etc. so it's perfectly understandable.:)0 -
