    Alcohol destroys many things, bodily cells, willpower, friendships, families, lives. Thank you 365 for sharing, praying for you and praying that your outcome is as fab as my brothers. Also praying that your journey is less painful than his. Also praying that you have the same support that he has had, whether from family or friends or both.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Public announcement:

    I'm quitting alcohol tomorrow.

    Go For it Jo. Coming out and saying it may well give you the motivation to do it!

    Hi all

    Well today is my birthday and I don't have a hangover - yes I'm tired after my party last night but I drank some wine and then some water and I'm not spending today wishing I hadn't been so stupid the night before:D

    Tonight was not AF but just a very small glass of wine with dinner . Drank tea for the rest of the night and am now off to bed. Hope I'll feel great tomorrow.

    Drank too much this weekend, no excuses.


    DH and I have pledged to be dry for January. Last year I kept it going until April. May not manage to keep going quite so long in 2014, as several milestone celebrations in February/March/April.


    Bring it on.

    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.
