I was supposed to do sober in October, which I successfully did last year but I sadly lost my dad on the 5th of the month and a few glasses here and there took the edge off. Did manage 3 AF days at the beginning of October, one in the middle and yesterday, today and the last 3 days of October will be a total of 9 AF for October (I think, correct me if I'm wrong).
I would like to pledge 30 AF days in November....
Well I managed Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and today, which brings my total AFD to 9 in October. Hurrah. Looking forward to November challenge.2018 AFD 23/240
