    So last night OH came in from work happy & elated after a successful day. This coincided with crates of Prosecco & wine having arrived for me to gift out to staff whom I manage. :beer:

    I decided to throw caution to the wind and have a bottle of Prosecco with him to celebrate - once chilled of course.

    I actually stopped at that and went to bed happy and woke up clear headed this morning. Sunday I have a country wedding in a stately home so will be having some alcohol but until then I will be abstaining. :A

    So for tonight 7 AF

    Treats are good as long as I am the one in control!

    15/15 AFDs, despite DH asking me twice if I wanted a glass of wine (because he's having a drink)
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    365, hope you feel able to give us an update soon? Praying for you.


    I want to share some great news. My brother has been told by the hospital that there is no cancer remaining. He wrote beautifully that "I felt myself return. My eyes turned from ashen remains to bright flames. My future became mine again"
