Thank you, PennySaving
and Good Luck! 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 -

Yes Muser, it was me that mentioned Belle's blog Tired of Thinking About Drinking. I'm on Day 67 of my 100 Day Challenge and I cannot speak highly enough of the support she gives. (I have homework!)Better is good enough.0

20/20 for tonight please. Target reached :j
Oh nearly forgot - October's target. I'm keeping it low as have a week off work so would rather be realistic and meet it then set it too high and not achieve it. So can I please have 16 as my October target.0 -
Calling it early for me, but as we've already eaten I'm pretty sure I'm not going to imbibe.
30/30 please, Shaggy.
And huge congratulations to everyone that met their targets this month, and to those who exceeded them - and yes, I do mean you, Barny! *respect*Better is good enough.0 -
Popping in to say goodbye to September! The last couple of days have been AF, not sure where that leaves me to be honest.
Anyway, here's to a sober october. I have so much to do over the next few weeks that to be able to say no and just keep AF will help enormously. I did just poor out the last of a long opened bottle of wine to 'finish off' the month - well, if I ma being 31 days AF then I should get some down me now, whilst I can, right? Well, I took a second look at the glass and decided that I didn't want it and I was going to go to bed instead. So, up the wooden stairs for me!!Trying to keep in budget.
