Hi everyone.

Thanks for welcome Maman and Shaggy. Managed 1 AFD today. Currently sat with ☕️ And very pleased as today has been rather carp at work but managed to avoid the siren song calling from the wine rack.
Tomorrow won't be AFD as have pre arranged meal out with friends but will try again Thursday.0 -

Afternoon :hello:
1 more AFD for yesterday.
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
