Morning all
Off to Spain this weekend for my 50th boys weekend so there will definitely be alcohol involved.
I don't want to give up alcohol I just want to significantly reduce the days I drink it.
To that end I shall be back Monday trying for more AF days
See you

What a lovely post thank you!
I'm out of hospital.....would be lieing if I said i felt great!!
But my god, facing mortality is an eye opener.
This is your life folks!!! Make the choice if you want to spend it sober, drunk, or battling the urges. I chose sober. Best decision I ever made.
Just a pre warning...as you know I usually say it how it is and this facet of me is in overdrive at the moment. ust stick me on ignore if you can't take me!
Happy Days everyone!

My Aunty had a hysterectomy - took her weeks and weeks to get over it (mind you she was 73)
Hope things are going well in the quitting smoking department .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.0 -

I typically start the day with a glass of white wine for breakfast
(written in the early hours of this morning)I'm on 3 bottles of wine per week. To be honest I feel p*ssed as a newt almost all the time, even on the days I don't drink. I've no idea how to stop this.
And suddenly, today you have been AF for 24 hours!
Also, I am curious how you only drink 3 bottles a week bearing in mind what you have written above.0
