    Going out tomorrow night, may have a glass of wine or two. I will see how I feel tomorrow. Been shopping tonight, got OH a bottle of cider, I never even look at the wine selection anymore. I have thought about having a drink though. Definitely not drinking in the house though.


    Got a busy weekend ahead, getting back into the sorting stuff out mode.


    I have also noticed that my eyes and skin are looking much better lately! Not dehydrated by copious amounts of alcohol.


    Goodnight everyone

    Tomorrow, I am sure you will think 'why did I have that drink'. I know on Saturday I will, hopefully eventually I can just have a social drink without feeling that it is such a big deal- like it is now.

    14/24 for me.

    I'm so tired I can hardly see straight, 2 hours of stop-start running today for the promo film. That added up to 5k according to my pedometer. I prayed for no rain, and it was mostly granted with just a short spell of light rain three-quarters of the way through. I think I have to wait until April to see the results.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
  • 6 AFD's and 2/3 snc please
