I don't want to drink for the rest of the month.

Good to have you on board aneres whether you're a giver upper or a cutter downer (like me).


No drinking here today, might even manage the full NC this week.


9 AFDs please Shaggy.

Thank you for the welcome.

I'm a bit of both maman. I have decided that saying giving up is too much of a challenge so I'm setting myself mini challenges. The first one being getting to the end of the month.

Wine is my downfall. I can take or leave other drinks but if there's wine in the house I can hear it calling to me from the fridge.

19/31 please

I don't want to drink for the rest of the month. I didn't drink yesterday so I'm going to include that.

Can you put me down for 13

So, so far 1-13

I hope I have done this right but let me know if there's any problems.

Thanks

Welcome. Keep posting here for support.

13/16 for tonight please.

10/20 AFDs - halfway there. It'll be tight, but I could make target this month.


Things were much calmer in the Satchmo household today - perhaps Mr S's anti-depressants are starting to kick in. Although he said he's feeling very weepy. he hasn't been cold.


I found myself browsing the wine-aisle this morning, but resisted. I didn't miss it at dinner either. Dinner was going to be lasagne except I couldn't find the lasagne sheets, and can't remember if I've got some somewhere. They'll turn up as soon as I buy some more, lol.


Mum has a hospital appointment tomorrow, for skin problems, and an appointment on Thursday for a dementia follow-up after a recent CT scan. She's definitely more "absent" now than she was in June. It's hard to know how much she's taking in sometimes, and yet she's still interested in world affairs and often has insightful opinions on news items. We always have two daily papers, and she enjoys tackling Sudoku and the crosswords. I do the codewords and word-wheels. In June some of her dementia symptoms were because she was under-nourished and anxious. Now she's getting a nutritious diet, and had showed some improvement between June and September. She's likely to have some anxiety with all the changes.

Stupotstu and Satchmo I was sorry to read your news. Hugs to both of you.
Welcome Aneres - hope you have a good month.

I have had one more AFD last Thursday, a moderate weekend while away and another AFD tonight so that's 4/14 for me please Shaggy

I've been restless tonight, but got through it. With being good tonight I'm hoping to sleep well - I also went for a run which should help too.

I am also a huge worrier - do you guys know the Monty Python I'm so worried abou song about the baggage retrieval system at Heathrow? I can worry that well too! Sleep well folks xxx
