    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.

    Had a single glass in the pub with a meal last night then came home and had a cup of tea. I'm doing well in my quest for 'normal' behaviour. Well I am on the drinking front.;) Nothing planned today so calling it.


    8 AFDs please Shaggy.

    20/31 please, Shaggy.

    I couldn't have kept going for as long as I did doing something this evening without my B3ck$ B1u3 so I am eternally grateful to everyone who's posted about it on this thread.

    For those that are doing Dry January, linky below to an episode of Inside Health on Radio 4 this evening about the effects of knocking the boozing on the head for a month. It's about 23 minutes in.

    Interesting HB. Thanks for posting.

    I caved last night after a very stressful day but am AF tonight making

    13/23 please Shaggy and 3/4 SNC

    I have worked out that, to meet my target of 23, I am going to have to have no more alcohol this month. If I didn't have a problem, this would be easy. I am going to try!

    21/31 AFDs for me today.


    I'm starting an 8 week meditation course tonight, which I am looking forward to. I enjoy meditating, but find I'm not very disciplined about it on my own.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
