    Good luck with being sensible PSL!

    Macpep I'm exhausted just reading your chronicle! Thanks for posting - I miss people when they drop off the thread. I'm still wondering how StuPotStu is doing, Satchmo, Gein ... Congrats on finishing the 13k walk. *respect* And a Saturday night without alcohol - woo hoo!

    I hope Maman's having a lovely holiday.

    21/30 please, Shaggy. I've loved the flower power one, and the surfing dudess one, so as I can never remember what you've allocated for the milestones each month I'm looking forward to the next one.
    Better is good enough.

    Yes, and Dizzy has been quiet lately, or have I just missed her posts? Also Scatterbrain, tho she did warn us she might be absent for a while.

    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.

    Finally made it to 7/16 (so at least I get one emoji this month) and not going to make target yet again this month. Must try harder! Been getting in from work and sitting in garden and having dinner out there and it has been tempting to have a glass of something with it. Haven't gone overboard but drank Thur/Fri/Sat/Sun and then had two last night. Really want to get back to my "no drinking Mon-Thur" state.
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!

    Dizzy pops up fairly regularly on the Flylady Thread, so although she's got an incredibly full-on life I don't worry about her too much because she posts often enough. I think she also managed to get what she was worried might be slightly out of control drinking back under control really quickly. Good on her.

    Excelllent numbers by the way, CathyBird.

    22/30 please, Shaggy.

    Afternoon all, 21/21 for me today. :)

    Thanks indeed, Honey Bear - I don't know whether it's the hot weather or what it is but I just seem to have gone off drinking and I figure I may as well just go with that for however long it lasts!
