    I had a dreadful day yesterday and succumbed but am AF this evening so

    5/23 for me please :)
  • I feel quite pleased with myself now and want tomorrow to be AF too.

    BHB I was chuckling about the whip earlier, that was so funny.

    I made it, although I very much wanted to tonight. i wonder why Molly's whip being threatened worked so well. I guess it was being accountable to her as much as anything?

    3/14 for me please Shaggy.

    Back again - kids safely tucked away.

    I checked my spend on the demotivator - £3265 per year - that around £65K sloshed between now and my retirement in approx 20 years. I could do a lot with that.

    Here's to a good nights sleep all round. See you Friday

  • Hello
    Finally managed to catch up on the posts, things move fast around here. Some really inspiring people on here, it's great.
    Just checking in with 5/18 up to last night. Hope the colour works, having to use my phone as OH has taken iPad. Anyone would think it was his.

    Tonight probably not AF but we'll see. Weekends are my downfall but for remainder of this month I hope to have at least one AF day on the Friday, Saturday or Sunday Good luck everyone and thanks Shaggy.

    5/25 for me as of last night. Only had a single beer since last Friday and planning on an AF weekend ahead. I am going to the pub tonight as I haven't seen a bunch of friends since before New Year but I'm determined to stick to the soft drinks (even though I hate them).

    However, I did wake up with one of those horrible phantom hangovers this morning. I really do feel like I was out on the lash last night.
